Lights! Camera! DVDs!

After breakfast at Tiffanys I was reflecting on how it's a wonderful life, though this was understandable given I had enjoyed a room with a view on my Roman holiday. Observing the travelling birds in little Britain I met my friends with money, borrowed a fistful of dollars and boarded the Imperial Express at 4.50 from Paddington, seeing a bleak house here or there from the window. I had booked a flight and made my great escape, returning to Miranda for Muriel’s wedding. I knew her through our mutual friend in Casablanca, the woman of substance. Far from a marriage of convenience it was love actually, for she was a good woman, although she had courted a few good men. Fifty first dates she’d had, no less. The groomsmen passed us in tuxedos like a march of the penguins while we went to meet the parents, who had great expectations of the groom, David Copperfield. When the wedding crashers arrived I was gone with the wind, heading for home until I was told an inconvenient truth that there was a body in the library. A body? No it was DVDs! In the library! At Miranda!Miranda library now have a selection of DVDs for loan – feature films, documentaries and television programmes. Visit the library to see our collection or ask the friendly staff to help in your selection.
