Lucky Day Last week, I took my class to get library cards and take a tour of the local library. I love this activity. So useful for practicing their English (librarians are usually very chill about slower questions from language learners) and then my students can get free books and kid’s stuff. I really had all the feelings, the last time I got to do this was years ago, back before the plague. After my students left, I looked at the Lucky Day bookshelf, these are books that are usually on hold for ages, and grabbed The Club. Does your library have Lucky Day checkouts? Is there a book you’re waiting for? #bookblogger #bookblogging #locallibrary #bookstagram #theclub #bookcommunity #whatimreadingnow #eslteacherlife (at Fields Corner Branch of the Boston Public Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnzSLUVLhh6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

‘Last week somebody hands in a wallet. Been found in the IT Suite. Open it. Five hundred and sixty euros in there. So i tannoy the name. Bloke comes and collects it. German. Never even thanks me... The last wallet that got handed in. This was a few days ago. Found in the public toilets on the first floor. I open it. Driving license. A hundred and ninety quid in new notes. Probably not been in there long so I look at the photo and look for the bloke. I see him downstairs. Just sitting on one of the sofas, not reading or anything. I go up to him I say, “Are you missing anything, sir?” He looks up. Says “No.” I say, “What about this?” and hand him his wallet. He thanks me. But he’s upset, I can tell. He says, “I’m all at sixes and sevens.” I ask him why. He says, “I’ve just buried my daughter. She was thirty-four. Three kids.” I say, “I’m sorry,” but there’s nothing I can do for him.’”
