Recommendation: Dulwich Library - "Blind Date with a Book"

Recommended Posts

I'm not linked to Dulwich Library at all other than having a library card but tonight fell upon a brilliant initiative "Blind Date with a book" they are doing and wanted to let EDF people know and support it ...


There is a stall in the front area of the library with beautifully wrapped books that have been selected by the librarians themselves with some clues on the wrapping (they're not all typically romance books I don't think which is fab).


They scan it for loan without revealing the book so can still be a surprise for 14th Feb (I couldn't wait so have already opening mine!)


So... if you're looking for something different for Valentines Day (which is environmental friendly) or just something different then Dulwich Library has it for free!



And apparently Hannah at Dulwich Library has organised all this so hats off to her!

    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
