I've got that book as well Louise in my home library. I've read sections, I find Catherine the Great really interesting. Hope you enjoy it as well.
I agree Jenny. I think there has to be three full names. Eg I can do a Susan Elizabeth Phillips. How about we continue on with 7 for this itinerary and if Abir hasn't indicated she wants to come back by the next one we advertise for a hitchhiker?
Yeah, I check if they are in my groups. If they're a random I usually decline.. and then feel really mean about doing that. But some do seem quite dodgy.
No Sally, if you're sad then so am I, LOL. But I admire how you've set this up on your computer. I'm still doing it old school style in an exercise book. So who is sadder....lolololololol. I finished my A - Author Angela Marsons
. 4 stars but a bit graphic .

Hope all is well. Good luck. I've just come back from the farm to Sydney so it's time to mask up. But I've been doing that already as we have to be so careful with my husband's immunity. So far , I've been lucky and haven't had to self isolate. My daughter has had two covid tests so far, fortunately both negative.

Sally, does the Greater Brisbane lockdown affect you?
No worries Celia. I’m sure we’ll have no problems, we can take turns reading the extra book required.
Thanks Ladies. Sally, it was Lexi an original team member who was interested in the hitch hiker thread back in August. I PM'd her and asked her to drop into this thread if she is interested in re-joining. If not, if the Mods okay it, we can just play on with our fabulous seven for now. Sounds like a plan.
Hi team, I heard back from Abir, her schedule is really full at the moment so she is going to take a break. She is an original team member and it has been lovely having her on the team, she hopes to come back at a later date. For now, I'll work on a replacement player.
Jenny, can you request our next itinerary from the Travel Agent, thanks.
As Abir has been part of this team since the beginning I'm going to PM one more time. If she doesn't respond over the next couple of days I'll advertise for a hitchhiker. Hope she is okay.
