Aha! Well I have read that one... and I don't remember anything about it either. It's got Ned Kelly in it, I remember that much.

Just popping in to say thank you to McG for recommending Waiting for the Last Bus. I did, indeed, find it extremely comforting.

I fell foul of Kindle not knowing about endnotes and telling me I still had 14% left. Not sure what to read next.

One that I (and Angus Clydesdale, IIRC) haven't read for fear of it being bad - also the third Moist/Adora Belle. If you tell me I have no need to fear I'll be happy.

Comfort reading very necessary in present circumstances.

I have started London Belongs To Me.
