'Neath a starry sky...
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it -- if you try.”

The way you sip your tea,
The mem'ry of all that --
No, no! They can't take that away from me!”

“Why do we not care to acknowledge them? The cattle, the body count. We still don't like to admit the war was even partly our fault because so many of our people died. A photograph on every mantlepiece. And all this mourning has veiled the truth. It's not so much lest we forget, as lest we remember. Because you should realise the Cenotaph and the Last Post and all that stuff is concerned, there's no better way of forgetting something than by commemorating it.”

“The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you had thought special and particular to you. Now here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out and taken yours.”

Oh Mel I really regret using a pen name for my books I get confused enough as it is!

Oh, I nearly missed this. You only get notifications on your own profile—something that is quite confusing on goodreads...
I hadn't even realised you were you, you know? Your name is different. I just made the connection on Twitter the other day, when you promoted your new book.
But I'm glad we've settled this now :-)

We usually get comments for the next couple of days. Have a great New Year's Eve.
