BULSInside: Mending bridges

Readers be warned: below is a desperate attempt to make everyone like me

 

The country girl is my favourite pub in Selly Oak, anyway I was there with flatmates yesterday and we got onto the topic of my tourettes and why I swear when I see someone I think is a Tory on TV or in the street.  We talked it out and it got me thinking.  I hate Tories, from the very core of my being Tories really really upset me, mainly because, despite what they say, they have no actually concept and belief in equality or social justice.

Besides all this, BUCF are a bunch of funny people, and when it comes to friends there’s none better than those who make you laugh (did I just call them friends), I’ve been feeling bad lately because I foolishly baited their chair into a debate about one of his blogs, mainly just so I could get some hits on this site and some actual action going on.  Anyway, I like DOD alot, I like John, Theo, Jimmy and Laura alot to.  I guess what I should say is sorry, it won’t happen again – well it probably will, let’s be honest, but when it does I mean no real emotional or physical harm.

 

In the spirit of the West Wing Friday is also BULS’ ‘get out the trash’ day so I’m hoping this sucking up to the tories will be ignored.

Don’t you think…

That students should have short-loan books for 24 hours regardless of the time they request to borrow them?

I went to the library the other day to get some books out around 7pm, I saw that one book I need for a seminar was only available as short-loan so obviously I got it out but it occurred to me that through no fault of my own I was being penalised as I was still required to return the book the next day at 11am.

What implications would there be, I wonder, if the library let all short-loan books out for 24 hours, regardless of the time they’re lent out?
