Sounds like you're all prepared, Pont. Stay safe you two and hope it's not as bad as they predict.

I thought this was so sweet. A marriage made in heaven I'd say.

I've finished The Last Time They Met. I like Anita Shreve's writing very much and have another on my TBR pile now Fortune's Rock. I'll look for The Weight Of Water and Wedding In December, at the library for sometime later....thanks for the recommendations, Pontalba and Julia. The ending of this book took me completely by surprise! Very clever. This book's main character, Linda, has her life story told from three different ages ....when she is 52, 26 and 17. I wonder if anyone else who read this, felt that her character was quite different at each of these periods? I found it quite hard at the end to actually mesh her into one person. Given the ending though, it might have been written that way ....or it might just be me

I had an interesting experience one time when I discovered my instincts weren't wrong. I made an appointment with a chiropractor who came highly recommended by someone from the Arthritis Foundation. She had written a newspaper article praising his abilities and I even rang her to get her first-hand opinion. I found him a very strange, intense little man, who said I must stop taking all medication I was on (prescribed by a doctor and with instructions not to suddenly stop taking it). He wanted me to book six further appointments. I came home and although I was encouraged to give him more of a chance to help, I cancelled all the appointments, because he made me feel uneasy. Several months later, I read in the paper that he had been charged with indecent advances to patients and had no formal qualifications whatsover. I had great pleasure in saying 'See, I told you!!'

I emailed The Book Depository about a book that hadn't arrived and was very impressed how quickly I got a very polite and helpful reply from them. The book turned up the next day

I went to a friend's place yesterday and a few of us had a go on her karaoke machine. By coincidence, this was one of the songs sung she sang
