So what do Cumbrian cats do?
Like all the other animals.
pretty muchApparently the morning is supposed to be dry before the next lot of rain rolls in
So I might get to look sheep without being soaked, for a change!

If you’re looking for some entertaining short stories to dip into, I can recommend this book.
But don’t blame me if you read the whole book in one sitting the way I did.
Nice! :-) I must get these now. I have the other lot and I am looking forward to reading them in the car on the way to Scotland.
Do what Desley does and read them aloud, it might keep McMini occupied ;-)If the Cats can cope with it, he surely can
Mwahahahargh! He's a bit of a graphic novel man at the moment. I can give it a go though. McOther might not like it though. The reading aloud, I mean.
How can you read in the car? It would make me sick. Plus I’m the driver (as OH can’t see)
I'm somebody who cannot read in the car either, but because other half is travel sick, she has to drive so I navigate
Me too. I can read on a train to an extent, but cars and coaches are a no-no.

As long as it doesn't get in the way of the train you're ok.
that's pretty much my thoughts as well ;-)
Given the way Amazon is tightening up on reviews I was surprised to get an American oneTallis Steelyard: Six men in a boat.

A poet...and a delightful rogue

Tallis Steelyard is a poet with champagne tastes on a beer budget. Chased out of town, and into the bay, by irate creditors, he's rescued by a passing boat and given the opportunity to become a part of the crew. Thereafter follow a series of adventures, many funny, before Tallis can finally return home again.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story and recommend it highly!
I was well chuffedJust came out of nowhere. Given how I've barely sold half a dozen copies in the US, I wasn't expecting anything :-)
Not one novella but two!The first is
Swimming for Profit and Pleasure
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...
Benor learns a new craft, joins the second hand book trade, attempts to rescue a friend and awakens a terror from the deep. Meddling in the affairs of mages is unwise, even if they have been assumed to be dead for centuries.
The second is
The Plight of the Lady Gingerlily:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...
No good deed goes unpunished. To help make ends meet, Benor takes on a few small jobs, to find a lost husband, to vet potential suitors for two young ladies, and to find a tenant for an empty house. He began to feel that things were getting out of hand when somebody attempted to drown him
The second novella was the result of a cunning plan. To provide the anecdotes for a blog tour to promote the first novella, I'd get people to send me pictures and I'd do a Benor short story to go with each.
The minute the first two pictures arrived it was obvious that they were the beginning and the end of a novella, and a certain person, not to be named, sent several more, which sort of fitted beautifully in the middle.
So this novella is a tribute to the Lady Gingerlily :-)
Now how could I possibly not buy something with such a magnificent title??!
no worlds were deleted in the writing of this book!
They might have been deleted during the writing of the book....
That remains a possibility. I have noticed any missing, but then you don't know what you've got til it's gone
And they've put up a parking lot.
one thing Port Naain doesn't have, no parking lots
It must be paradise!
What do they sew?
You have me in stitches!
A review!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent Benor Mystery.

The tale starts with a description of squid autopsy procedures.
Then, we find out how Benor learns the skill of deep sea diving, and running a bookshop.
The story soon develops into a ‘Benor needs to find and rescue a friend’ theme.
Luckily, Kara Halon (who works for The Purveyors of Magic) is on hand and joins him for a swim with a difference.
Great stuff...
I could see the man but not read the text :-(
I've tried editing it, can you see it now?
I'm a couple of days late but I do love that meme. I should probably print it out and stick it on my sewing machine
yes, the sewing machine equivalent of a fridge magnet :-)
Oh I get a better class of reviewer ;-)
None more classy than our Kath!
Absolutely :-)What a track of Tina Turner singing 'Simply the best' at this point :-)
