Started the unofficial history of Kelly gang. 50 pages in I’m almost certain I’ve read it before but possibly only to this point.

Just read 2 chapters of Everything I never told you. Quite shocked because even as recent as 1958 America condemned mixed marriages in fact it was illegal in at least 20 states

Discovered a copy of The Odyssey - not on the bookshelf which houses Youngest Son's uni books (he studied Ancient History) but on the bookshelf which houses Younger Daughter's books. Surprise. She studied English and Philosophy.
