It is quirky Hannah, and it is based on the author's own experiences. I found out today there is a sequel out: "Unaccompanied Women" - so that's next on my reading list.

I'm looking to buy a clip on light so I can read while OH sleeps. I don't want to pay loads as I have a kindle so rarely read paperbacks.
I've had a look on eBay, but there are quite a few different types
Any recommendations ladies ?

I've just finished reading my 13 year old daughters book.
Jacky Daydream by Jacqueline Wilson.
Very good.
It is an autobiography of her up to age 11.
Could relate to it.

Just finished reading My Imaginary Friend as recommended by Taz & MrsP if I remember correctly. Lovely book, could not put it down on the last few chapters.
Now reading The Happiness Trap - not sure who suggested this, may have been under another topic. Hoping it will help hubby.
Happy reading ladies

well by the time I had walked upstairs and sat here, the title had completely gone
-
"Relative Stranger" by Mary Loudon. I read it when first published, lent it etc.. it gave me an insight into why I
am
correct in not worrying how good/not my sister and I 'get on'. We don't. Everyone else seems to be bothered by the situation in that we rarely contact each other, than I am. I get the 'you should keep in touch with your sister' ........... but it is easier if I don't. The story reiterates how I feel ........

I'm reading "A street cat named BOB" before that it was the latest one of Paul O'Grady's. I'm finding it hard to concentrate at the moment though, docs visits and blood tests have got me so on edge, find out tomorrow if I've got gall stones... god.. I desperately hope not.... the thought of hospital terrifies the life out of me. I'm praying to family and friends "up there" who might be listening to give me some good luck. I'm such a wimp these days, and getting worse with age. I only went for an HRT review thinking that was why I felt rough too.

I saw the street cat named Bob on TV before C.mas .........
Hopefully your results will be positive. What's the worst that can happen if you have gallstones?

Hi Dyan, my Son bought me that book for Christmas, you have prompted me to get going with it x
I have bought a few second hand CD story books to help me get to sleep at night - it works a treat but is taking me ages to get through a story as I have to keep going back! Listening to Maeve Binchy 'The Copper Tree' at the moment.
