Happy New Year

Today Victoria, Chris & the boys are on the move

From Derbyshire to Devon

Lachlan & Austin look excited

Today our thoughts have been with the Norman Atlantic

It stopped off in Igoumenitsa
This could have been any of us
Hope for all those still on board

Thank you Andy & Jenny for a great party

More reading

Much talked about thriller - now a film
I was glued to this book
But would advise you to read it for the journey, not the ending.
I would actually like to see the film to see how they deal with it.
Have book if anyone wants it.

This book has been compared with Gone Girl
A psychological analysis of a failed relationship.
Actually enjoyed this one more
Sorry on Kindle, so cannot lend

And Happy Birthday Gloria

A couple of books I read on Kindle recently

WWII novel about a Muslim/Jewish couple
escaping from Paris
In translation so not the easiest of reads
But well worth it

 A fascinating book also suitable for younger readers
It describes the world from the perspective of a high functioning autistic boy
Interesting and sensitively written

Janet's Party - Last month !
