      Hope you are enjoying your Kindle ,Karen . Takes some getting used to in the beginning to switch from paper books to the Kindle, but now it's all I use .

      Thanks everyone, yes you're right Julie, it is going to take me a while to work out which buttons do what, but I like it already. One thing, how do you delete books from it? I've accidently downloaded 'Crime and Punishment' in Spanish onto my kindle and want to get rid of it !

      You do a Kindle version of 'right click' on the title, then press 'Remove From Device'. That's on my oldie kindle though!

      Of course nobody is going to know the exact answer - so it`s just whoever is the best guesser !

      I saw Felix's mum and family watching him jump. They were all crying with relief when it was evident that he was going to be ok. I was nervous watching it, I can't imagine how his family felt!

    3. Booknutt

      Booknutt

      I found it amazing that he came down all that way - and landed on his feet, breaking into a casual walk. Now that's just showing off!

    4. karen.d

      karen.d

      I know, there was not even the small sign of a stumble...amazing. However, now Felix has done this, what else is there left to achieve?
