East End Jubilee by Carol Rivers
My rating: 0 of 5 stars
A very timely read. This book begins in June 1953 with the Queen's coronation and all the excitement of an East End family watching the ceremony on their new TV. (TV's had just come out and were a rare luxury). The residents of the street are squashed into one small room, grown-ups and kids alike. I wasn't ready for what came next and I... read more »

For anybody who reads fantasy novels and enjoys them, I recommend the award winning epic 'Tales of the Pahleen: Blue Fire Burning'. I loved it. It's a credit to the author, Hobb Whittons. He really is an accomplished writer. All in all, I can't recom...more |

I really enjoyed this novel, the characters came alive on the page for me and I was soon siding with Danielle, and had the overpowering urge to kick Dean where it hurts...what a creep. I read A Time For Change in one evening, as I was eager to find ou...more |

Hi Chris! Nice to be connected on Goodreads! I entirely agree with you about the subject of humour. What do you reckon to Frank Spencer? I think he's 'indi-spence-able'. Best 'never seen' sitcom character? Elizabeth Mainwaring (Dads' Army)? I could go on about Ronnie Barker forever; ditto Laurel & Hardy, the Young Ones etc....Love Giles cartoons too. Laughter is the best medicine. Talk to you soon.

Hi Hobb,Thanks for the comment. I agree with you about Dads' Army. We have very similar likes.I am still working out Goodrteads, so a bit slow at the moment ;0) I am sure it will benefit us in the end.
Great picture of you in the classroom.
Best wishes. Chris
