Our Favourite Librarian
Retires.
Cathie Boer
Kay Dickenson, Meredith's favourite librarian, retired
after 21 years, just before Christmas.
No doubt she will be able to spend more time with her
husband and grandchildren.
She will also have a lot more time for reading, crocheting
and knitting.
Enjoy your retirement, Kay. You will be missed.

Back to the drawing board
Surprisingly, this saying
seems to be a fairly recent
one in comparison to others
and one without much
ambiguity. Meaning to start
over with a new idea or plan,
the first appearance of the
phrase was in a 1941 cartoon
by American cartoonist Peter
Arno for The New Yorker
Magazine. The cartoon
shows a crashed military
plane with the pilot coming
down by parachute, with a
designer walking away with
blueprints under his arm. The
caption reads ‘well, back to
the old drawing board’.

Green Grass of Home. He said: 'That sounds like
Tom Jones syndrome.' 'Is it common?' I asked.
'It's not unusual' he replied.
