Today in Belfast I stood down as chair of the Health Libraries Group. Alan Fricker takes over from me and will bring a lot more to the post than I ever did. I still have some duties to discharge at the annual conference in Eastbourne.
It was liberating to be able to sit through most of the committee meeting and not have to give my mind to procedure, steering the committee towards a decision, making sure everyone could have their say and so on.
Belfast was fun. I had a fry at Maggie May's and some Guinness in a bar.
