Hi,

Life is scarey/blue at the moment as I've issued a grievance against my old boss as he went too far. Being 25 weeks pregnant I could really do without the stress but can't leave his slur on my file unchallenged! Along with other tensions going on I could really do with an escape book to disappear into that makes me smile. I travel for approximate 150 minutes by tube and train each day and could really do with just emersing myself in a good book.

I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith is very sweet
Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K Jerome

I have old fashioned tastes

A Year in the Merde, but maybe funny because we've been there done that.

Mavis Cheek - Janice Gentle Gets Sexy is fab!
