Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

You won't be able to put it down - you will have to read through the night at the utter horror of it. But it is all so real and believable. I hear they are making a film of it and I can't wait but I also won't be able to bear to watch it either.

A thought-provoking analysis of how the human being is stretched and pushed by the will to survive, against all the odds - how altruism and positive human values can peek through the black, depressing fog of human selfishness.
