I thought I might, then I swore I wouldn't, and now here I am. You will get bits of news, you will get bits of books, and you will get bits of us.... and if I ever find out how, bits of the garden!!
I read an average of eight books a month, this month will be higher as I seem to be ploughing through smaller, thinner tomes, but there is at least one fatty waiting.
Today I am reading Kisses on a Postcard by Terence Frisby based on the playwright's own experiences of being evacuated to Cornwall during WW2. Light and entertaining, and a joy because so many of those who were evacuated seem not to have had a good time at all, but Terry and his brother Jack ended up with two glorious Welsh souls, who lived in a terrace overlooking a railway station and juction. They already loved the railways, their father's job was a railway job, so you could describe their immediate thoughts as died and gone to heaven!
Mac-Adventures (with books! I read an eclectic mix of books, some years old, rarely prizewinners, sometimes on bestseller lists but more than likely not: but the ones I like I'll tell you about...... if you read them too, let me know! You may also find Gardening here, Home and Furniture makeovers; sometimes Food, Travel tales..... but mostly, Books.
