Sounds like another book I have to go and find. How will I explain the brown wrapping to my kids? If I dangle the book upside down, will it open at the good bits? Eeuuuk. That definitely wouldn't happen with a Kind!e. :rotfl:

Have a good day, Tilly x

No way am I going to read that book :eek::eek:

The Queen put me about yesterday as well, couldn't get to bank, had to go long way home and then the kids pestered me as to why I hadn't taken them to see her! I had to remind them they only saw the Flotilla 10 days ago and not to be so ungrateful.

And I must keep an eye out for that book, although I don't have a kindle to be discreet about it.

:j:j:j:j Well, I went to bed last night leaving 2 chicks in the nest and overnight they've turned into 2 little birds :j:j:j:j. Both have a really distinctive Adam Ant stripe and Martin is walking about and stretching his wings .

Well done mum & dad :T.

Watch the BIRDIES

PS They look a tasty pouissin size

They are so lovely to watch - they grow blinking quickly - shows how little I know about birds

Morning, just stopping by to see how the book is going? I have worked my way through a Patricia Cornwell which was a bit gruesome in places.

Sun is out but sky is is a watery grey not blue so no clue what the day will end up like. I have pulled some garlic up (a bit late) and I put it on the shed roof to dry on Sunday in the sun, promptly forgot about it, so I am now hoping it dries, or I need to make a batch of ginger and garlic for the freezer

Have a good week, Tilly x

:whistle:I may have finished it :whistle:

I may be on the 2nd book

Hmmmm...... I did kinda enjoy it - it did not deliver what it promised, which is probably just as well as I have led a sheltered life . I won't comment further until we have all read all 3 :rotfl:.

I was too curious so decided to buy it on Kindle as it was only £2.60. Sorry to say I didn't enjoy it that much, the writing was rubbish and the plot very thin. The old critic in me gives it 2/5. Hope everyone else is enjoying it more than I am!

Certainly did not deliver what it looked like it would. Am on 2nd book though :rotfl:. I would have liked more about the relationship - how she feels she has let him down etc - rather than 'Oh my' etc. Best read the 3rd book so I can form an overall opinion .

DD's birthday today. 27 :eek:. She's nearly as old as I think I am :rotfl:.

One tenant hasn't paid rent so need to pop in on way to station later. This is one of the reasons I don't want to keep the houses on when we go to Spain .

Hope you all have exciting plans this weekend. I will mostly be setting a world record .
