day off

A copy of the New Yorker.
A huge mug of coffee.
A table to myself, and not a student in sight.

Isn’t Borders blissful in the already-back-to-school, not-yet-back-to-university season?

Not quite as good as the University in the holidays … long term loans on books, and entire floors to myself!

I like Borders to and the library anywhere they have books.

A Borders with coffee and a view of the ocean would be my ideal place to spend a holiday.

Ooh. Is there such a place??

The divinity section in the main library in St Andrews offered a glimpse of the sea, but you had to work for it (and then retreat to McGreggor’s for coffee).
