Ah now that might be the very thing. Cadfeal was holiday reading for me at one time- until I finshed them all. These damned authors are too slow.

Thanks.

I have an Edward Rutherford that I have been saving. That one is a brick too. But I will read it in hard copy format.

Pity there wasn't a parlimentary debate from that petition. The Hansard would have provided hours of amusement

My favourite book of all time is The Rebel Angels by Robertson Davies which may be available as the first part of The COrnish Trilogy. Set in a Canadian University it is a total delight. I can also recommend highly the Deptford Trilogy by the same author (well anything by him really!) but The Rebel Angels is a fabulous book. When i am home i read all his work every year!

I will check those out too than Thank you. I need about 200 pages a day I find. That was the problem with Cadfeal. One book lasted two days at best. Rutherford is good because his books are 1200 pages long. You really should give one a go. I do think you would like his books. I would recommend London as your starting place. Sarum was the first I read and I loved it. But I find the better I know the place it is set, the better I have enjoyed the book. I think you know London well.

The Sansom books are all about 1000 pages i think. They are interesting and easily drop inable if you know what i mean.
For sheer joy you have to read Rebel Angels at some point
I'm sure FInk would recommend Wodehouse to you! Maybe there is a collected works of Wodehouse if you're looking for something a little lighter and more comedic?

Off for some Viking before sleep night x

Hight P. Night all

meh..

THey may have fixed DS by the time the Sillies wake up chins. They need to sellotape the hamster back on the wheel *rolleyes*

Ooh its quiet in here, thanks planets for the coffee this am! Sneaked in very early and was busy all day, no home baked goodies to offer

Weather lovely today, so took advantage and did a lot of tidying up outside and in the sheds.

*Leaves plate of butterfly cakes*

I'll swap you a butterfly for a chunk of sticky ginger! *leaves plate of sticky ginger cakes*

Hang on ..... why is it sticky?

THere's lots of treacle in it.....what did you think was in it

*Nicks all cakes for self*

Turns off electric fence, peels chins off and boots out, turns electric fence back on.

Feet up, cuppa x

Oh well fried, tk!!

Oh I'm quiet. But licensed. x

Do you have a cattle prod? We could use it in here.

Nooooh! Not nice. At least, not on cattle.

I wasn't going to use it on cattle. Cows are nice and usually well behaved.

Well then knock yourself out on my electric fence and farmers special shotgun

Eta knock yourself out doesn't sound very friendly! Meànt nicely

Oh one butterfly cake, yum thanks. Nite x

If Ann Summers made electric fences......

You can imagine all the Ann Summers shops having a secret cellar for the KINKY SECTION where electric fences and.............................all the other kinky stuff [of which I know nuffing] ............... would be kept

Isn't that where all the politicians go in their lunchbreak after they've had their fill at the multitude of subsidised bars of course. Or was that just in the days of LV's.

Ahh a butterfly cake for me please.
