re: "the library here is the worst library in the history of libraries."
in the national library in florence you can't even bring a pencil in. you can't highlight. you can't write notes. you can't photocopy. then you have to wait on line for an hour for a peek at a book and when the desk people ask if you are in a hurry for the book and you ask them, well how much of a hurry, and they tell you it might take 8 months to get the book for you, it takes all your strength not to scream VAFFANCULO! and jump on the 14th century tables and start ripping out pages from books like a madwoman and punch all the desk people in the faces.
oh!! you win!! ours is just ugly and doesn't have what i'm looking for ever and has really uncomfortable chairs and only lets you check out four books at a time. not so bad in comparison...
i love you! i just got back from amsterdam, i'm going to prague and florence (and maybe paris too) in april also, let's compare travel schedules! BIG KISSES ps: i don't even know WHERE the library at king's is :(
