As a former archivist for a local authority I feel for all the IM peeps & Archivists who now have to deal with a merging of records…coz that went really well in 1989 (it did not) & now info is so much bigger & digital which costs lots of $ to deal with…URGH

Love music and concerts, really enjoying kiwi artists Borderline, Reb Fountain. Fav album Pearl Jams 10. Fav pods: What did You Do Yesterday and the Not Just the Tudors by History Hit. Book I’ve just started: The Five- The Untold Lives of Those Killed by Jack the Ripper
A new question for today #SecretSantaAoNZ
This one might require a few replies to answer, at least for me.

#SecretSantaAofNZ yay for a match! I have no allergies. But I hate black liquorice 😝. I love all chocolate. I like plants indoor and outdoor (and have a pretty good vege patch and glasshouse).
