We may be small, but we're mighty. Or, as Shakespeare may have put it: Though they be but little, they are fierce! Silvana was surprised and a bit disappointed when she learned that instead of seven runners, only three were going to turn up to shift around furniture, boxes full of books and a pig on wheels. What we lacked in numbers, we made up for in willpower - and one short chocolate break later ("Did someone say chocolate?") it seemed that half of the library's objects had magically changed place. According to a reliable source, the team achieved about 80% of what twice the people would have managed. So... never. Underestimate. Grrrl. Power. Hopefully back for more next Tuesday.
