   "The Orkney Library are well worth a follow on twitter (x). Shetland Library too. Librarian accounts are hilarious and the post mentioned in this episode was a real one."

Commented on The Librarian's Secret Diary:
   "This episode was inspired by a true story. A radio station in Texas once put cash in library books, without warning the library. 3000 books were thrown on the floor by the crowd of over 500, scrambling over each other to find a sum total of $100. The only way to get them to stop was to lie and say it had been found."

Commented on Backlist Mystery Book Club:
   "Fun review, thank you. It's ages since I binged on Agatha but I don't think I've read this one. However, sounds like I didn't miss much. I suppose like many authors, Agatha improved with practice and this was an early work. 3 identical weapons, sigh. Identical twins plot - double sigh."

   "Thankfully my experience in a school library for teens never extended to a "Code Blue" but as a Beaver Scout leader (with children aged 6-8) we had to be ready. In hindsight I wish we had a Bob the bear to help us back then."
