I need a few interesting facts about myself to put on here. ๐ Anyway, Northampton Town & Worksop Town fan. #Teyn
Operation Mincemeat - Ben MacIntyre
Book 34 completed, A Table Near The Band - A.A. Milne
I quite enjoyed the stories in this, especially the 1 which parodies the biblical Noah building his Boat, sorry Ark.
Anyway, we go again & onto Book 35
Operation Mincemeat -Ben MacIntyre
๐๐๐ #books #booksky #skybooks
A.A.Milne - A Table Near The Band.
Book 33 War Doctor - David Nott.
An incredibly moving story of volunteering in war zones. Some of the stories are truly heart rending.
So we move on to Book 34
A Table Near The Band - A.A. Milne
This is book 11 of my 12 books of Christmas #books #booksky ๐๐๐
Slumming it for a week

A #Brutalist command post in East Germany or a public toilet in Dumfries & Galloway.
Yep, it's a toilet block on Powfoot Beach on the Solway Coast.
Give it a good old share, please. If you were a shagger you would

Nobody really looks at our stuff any more, so in a desperate throw of the dice we thought we'd try to sex things up by getting our resident artist DPAD Dan to some modelling.
Yeah, that really is desperate.
And so, we complete book 31 of 2025 and move seamlessly onto book 32
Snow Widows - Katherine MacInnes.

I, for one, heartily endorse this post.

Been to WWT Slimbridge again today, slipped & purchased another book.

Did I mention that I'd done a new bit of scribbling? I'm sure I did but I've had very few notifications to tell me about reposts and that

The Last Overland by Alex Becsoby
So we progress onto Book 31 for 2025
The Last Overland - Alex Becsoby
Purchased this on a whim from #Slimbridge #WWT
๐๐๐ #booksky #books
Book 30 - Down Under - Bill Bryson.
I have to admit, I really enjoy reading Bill Bryson books. Over the years I've read 8 (iirc) of which 6 have been in last 3 years.
He seems to have an innate ability to mix serious & comedic in each book. ๐๐๐ #booksky #books

Been to WWT Slimbridge today. Plenty of birds in the distance, including 5 Cranes. Everything was too distant for my phone camera.
In other news, we're going back tomorrow.
Also, here's some #Fungi.
Came away on holiday on Sunday 21st September with, what I thought, enough books for the duration. We decided last week to book an extra week down in Cornwall, consequently I've had to get another 2 books to cover our extended break. Such is life. ๐๐๐ #books #booksky

Book 29 - Ghost Signs completed.
A truly moving book of a Volunteer delivering food parcels during COVID in 2020.
Contains descriptions that seem incredible in this day & age.
Moving on, we arrive at book 30 for 2025
Down Under - Bill Bryson
๐๐๐ #booksky #books
Book 28 of 2025 - Bromley Boys - completed.
So it's onwards to Book No. 29
Ghost Signs - Poverty & The Pandemic - Stu Hennigan.
I doubt this one will be as much fun as Bromley Boys, but here goes.
Book 27 of 2025 completed. Now it's on to book number 28
The Bromley Boys - Dave Roberts.
As a follower of a lower league & a non league football club this one appeals to me.
#books #booksky ๐๐๐
Went into 2 shops today which sells books (bookshop & a charity) - came out WITHOUT buying anything.
I'm still traumatised!
