Just nipped to the library on behalf of Mrs D only to witness one of life's coincidences.
Mrs D had ordered 2 books by a particular author. After getting them stamped a lady said "excuse me but I think they are mine as I ordered them".
Librarian said "no, dont worry, your 2 copies are here waiting" (she had ordered the same 2 books and was picking them up at exactly the same day & time).
Then......
The lady said "excuse me, but if your wife enjoys that author then I recommend this one that I have just returned"
So I duly got that one stamped and knowing I would be getting Brownie points for the extra book, returned home with a smile.
Only for Mrs D to say "why did you get that one......I have just returned it".
Sometimes a man has to realise he just cannot do things right
