I have 'Dirt Music' on TBR pile - am looking forward to it

I read 'Widower' last year and this is what I wrote about it in Librarything - A very enjoyable read. Well written. The first few chapters describe the extreme despair of bereavement and I read on with a heavy heart. Doug, the main character, not wholly likeable moves towards resolution with the assistance of family. I loved his father's character, I felt quite tearful about him. Could be made into a great film. So I understand why you stopped reading I read Triffids as a teenager and it as stayed with me all these years

Happyanddandy's intended reading list for 2008
happyanddandy replied to happyanddandy's topic in Past Book Logs
Finished 'Seesaw' by Deborah Moggach - excellent read and review in the blog. I had forgotten what a good writer she is. Read 'Love in a Cold' Climate by Nancy Mitford and will review shortly. -
I can't find the thread related to this on BCF and I can't find where to put my review on the Penguin site. I don't have access to my Outlook either to look up the old email so I 'm hoping someone can help me to point me in the right direction please?

I seem to have weaned myself off - I watched Boris instead tonight

Hello ans welcome

I was a competitive swimmer in my youth. I trained every day before school at Crystal Palace 6-7.30am then school then again after school 5-7pm. Session on Sundays as well and usually a competition somewhere in the country on Saturday evening. So I enjoy watching swimming, I enjoy watching cycling, gymnastic and athletics. I love to watch my daughter and her school team play netball. It's a really exciting game. I wish it had more TV time

I have waited a couple of months for at least 1

He is a controller and she needs to get rid asap
-
He did this evening but you have to fill a form out and wait for a reply blah blah for a price of course
-
That sounds like a good read.

It was easier all those years ago - you can't just go and queue now - I still can't believe how incompetent they were - the first guy I spoke to at the PO I swear was half cut - the second one Mike dealt with made us the Liverpool appt which did not exist and then a letter arrived giving us an appointment next Wed - just abysmal but you dare not complain
-
I laughed when I saw it Paula - didn't seem to latch on in this house though
-
I agree - I think I would probably like Mikey to win now just for having the guts to do it, participate in the activities without asking for special treatment, and survive!
