Hi Bagpuss!
Glad to hear that your son is enjoying it. I like it, but we get way too much homework sometimes. But yeah I like it. (Got two more level 6's by the way! One for science, one for maths!)
(Hey, drama was good today! A great laugh!)
And Louise, I like Caroline Lawrence as well! Shame, I've read three of the books and I read the one that was set in Pompeii a few months ago, and I too can't remember the title either!
