I am sitting watching old episodes of Call the Midwife with Amanda a sort of comfort eating version of tv I suppose. We had a morning in the peaks a coffee outside at Hassop station and then a walk around Whitworth park. So I am wishing you all Happy New Year as I am working the next two days. As I am just reading the stunning French Novel Born of No woman a horrific tale of a young woman sold into servitude by her father as he can’t afford her and her siblings, the story is told when a priest finds a notebook hidden by the young girl as she is dying. I will return on Monday with the first review of 2022 what book has seen you into the New year? Do you have comfort tv?


Happy New Year to you too Stu.
Happy New Year!! Sounds like a nice relaxing way to round off the year!
Happy New Year to you to. Call the Midwives and Vera are my comfort tv. I just finished The Labyrinth by Tasmania writer Amanda Lowry who is winning all kinds of prizes. Just a brilliant book.
Happy New Year to you and yours Stu. My comfort TV is currently watching Susan Calman wherever she happens to be travelling!!
Happy New Year! I’ve been taken through by D. E. Stevenson’s “Five Windows” which is absolutely charming and very comforting!
Happy New Year to you and Amanda.
I’ve heard about this French book, bleak but awfully good, if I remember what my friend said.
