    I know we're against cheating systems here but book groups - eek! Startagain, you need to cheat: First chapter, last chapter, one chapter (two, if keen) selected at random from the middle. Worked fine for A' levels.

    And, blimey! Lord knows what happened yesterday! The drama, the tears, the laughter, the schnapps! It's like the Archers (geddit) omnibus.

    Can't drink. Have to do school run now.

    It is The Reader - the book of the film that is out at the moment with Kate Winslet - it is a bit heavy going for me, I am afraid!

    Might see you soon................

    I can tell you what the big revelation is at the end, if you like. But I won't post it in here in case it spoils the film/book for everyone else. One question for your book-group: what does everyone think the law lecturer did in the war? That bit passed me by, indeed I don't think it ever comes up, but if my suspicions are correct, it completely squashes any moral core in the novel. Also, I don't believe the thing about the tin.

    Flat?

    I'm a bit "fed up" if that is what you mean?

    Note: The "powers that be" are looking what happened with peachy.

    I can't say any more than that since I don't know any more than that. If there has been a mistake then hopefully it should be sorted soon.

    Sorry, but that is all I know and all I am likely to, so that that is the best I can do.
