I can highly recommend CL Taylor for a good subtle thriller 👍

Definitely agree with this.  I have just finished reading The Missing by CL Taylor.  Also read The Lie.  Really enjoyed them both.  BA Paris is another good psychological thriller writer.

Thanks for the book recommendations I will check them out .
I've had a productive morning here so far, the kitchen has had a good going over, I've got a load of washing on and I've hoovered downstairs again because the cat flicks cat litter everywhere, I have a two in one stick hoover that's good for a quick run around and it's bagless so I just empty straight into the bin, it's great for picking up bits but I use my Hetty hoover once a week to give the carpets a good hoovering to get up pet hair, the little hoover picks some up but not as much as Hetty 😀 when I've got my new floors downstairs I won't need to use Hetty and it will take me minutes to run round and clean 🎉🎉
I'm also cleaning the bathroom today after this coffee ,then I'm hoping the delivery has arrived because I need to go and get bread

I used to have a Henry Hoover, they are brilliant.

I used to use a Henry Hoover when I worked at a nursery......hated it with a vengeance but thinking back it was probably the glitter all over the floor which made it very hard work 😳

Another Henry hoover fan, but mine broke after about 10 years of service. Glad you are getting some downtime on your annual leave. Loving all the Christmas decorations and arrangements .

I'm waiting for the day my floor is clear enough to have one of those that does it itself.  Maybe next decade!

Love a Henry Hoover. Mine is 11yrs old and for the past four years is lugged in and out of my car on a daily basis as I use it for work. I hate bagless big vacuums, it does everywhere when you empty them. Henry is heavy and clumsy, especially when he gets stuck behind doors, but parts are cheap, I love the ease of taking the foot off to get into the edges,and with his cheeky grin you can sort of believe in his personality 😉🤔😂 I us so many different brands of vacuums and only the Miele are better. I can't get on board with the shark craze. I find them fiddly to work out, and haven't rated any that I have tried. But everyone who doesn't clean for a living seem to love them 🤷

And don't get me started on the upright Dysons 🤦😂

The stick hoover I've got is made by Beldray,I wanted a small dust buster type handheld just for quick tidy ups and this is a two in one, so you can use it as a hand held or attach it to the stick part and it turns into a hoover, it picks up most things but I wouldn't consider it good enough for a proper clean if you have pets,I love my Hetty Hoover ,she has a turbo head for pet hairs and found her easy to fix myself when the flex was damaged, parts are easy to get hold of as well, she must be over ten years old now,I can't remember when I bought her, the only thing I don't like is that the filters aren't washable. I don't like Dyson and don't know what the fuss is all about ,my mum had one and it was rubbish. I used to clean for a living so do appreciate a good hoover, I don't understand the shark craze either,my DD has one and it's rubbish 

Edited to add =. The Beldray hoover has lights on the front which is a bit weird and the cat hates it,he doesn't mind Hetty but I think the lights on this one upset him 😟
