Failure of Mission...

I was all set...

Tidy the room, root out all the non and never likely to be read books. Stealthily place them in a bag. Stealthily change them to a bag that isn't polythene and not rip as soon as you pick it up. Wait for a wee break in the rain. Spark up the scooters and brave the elements.

Halfway along toward the library and the sight of brown shutters on the windows made me realize I should have gone with my earlier instinct of phoning ahead to check they were open.

Oh well, got out for a wee while and got twice as much arm exercise than I anticipated.
