A very amusing find in the library recently! While checking stock, one of our Library Assistants found this note. We managed to track down Brendan, who is now a Professor of Mathematics at @MTU_ie. He has fond memories of cleaning books for £40 a week in the summer of 1983!

When people say 'live life to the full' they're usually telling you to go on adventures, to say yes to opportunities and to embrace new experiences. But I do think that living life to the full can also mean watching the darts with a cup of tea while the cat sits on your lap.
