    Do we assume if we`ve not heard anything today that we`ve been unlucky ?

    I'm giving away 'The World's Wife' to the people in the women's wards at our local hospital. TBH I thought a lot of the choices were a bit ambitious if the aim is to get people reading, although the books are good and i've read lots of them. I thought maybe a poetry book which is quite funny might be light reading in hospital.
    Anyway- I'm excited. Of course they could go on ebay but I guess that is a risk they are taking.
