countdown to Jilly!!!

[FnD]

after reading Caitlin Morans interview with Jilly Cooper at the weekend - I am throughly overexicted and can't wait for Thursday.

Anyone else planning to start reading on thurs?

Oooh come and tempt us with titbits please. Still haven't managed to get my mitts on a copy as got DNs to look after

So can I buy the kindle version from amazon to work on my iPhone 4?????

Argh just tried kindle for iPhone, yuck. Off to buy book

No spoilers yet please! Have to wait til I get home from holiday to read!

I've got mine, so fat so good.

Is anyone else finding the lack of romps in the new book disturbing?

FFS, I expected raunch!

Has anyone started reading yet, or have children had some expectation of being looked after . Im about halfway through, and dont want to spoil it for others although Im desperate to share my views!

Kindle for iPhone isn't ideal I agree, but I hate reading hardbacks so it's better than that.

Shall I start a spoilers thread for those of us desperate to hear....

Noooooo I'm on page 140 and riveted. I don't have enough will power not to look.

Gah!!! I still havn't started it - bloody real life interfering with stuff like work and children.

Have we had any Jilly classics yet? have any joyous otters been mentioned??? these details I must know and surely they dont count as spoliers?

Off into town tomorrow with DS buying uni stuff... which means visit to bookshop

There goes my weekend!

Worried about reported lack of 'raunch' though... hope Jilly hasn't gorn off

I've just ordered it online (waterstones £8.99, free delivery 5% back with quidco (can you tell I'm a bit pleased?)) but now thinking maybe I should have coughed up for delivery, not sure i want to wait.

I am taking Jilly to bed now to start reading. Will report back on joyous otters.

Off out in a mo with the DCs to WHSmith to get some school stationery (and the new book

Oh tis flora by the way - I mucked up one of my many logins and Maud (or is it Maude?) is more my age

Got it!!!! Reading will begin soon

Me too thelunar66. Can't start reading until DC in bed but scanned through the list of characters - some old faves - RCB of course; as well as Billy, Janey, Lysander, some of the kids from wicked - and Edward Alderton - Ruperts Grandson and Perdita and Luke's son.

I'm going in!!!

i've started and loving it! only thing is i'm getting through it too fast

Can we talk about 4 words on page 22? Can we? Can we? can we????

Which 4 FnD? Are you talking about the names?

Which four words?

< frets >

Nope - her last book (well in fact last few books have been utter shite of the highest order so am NOT buying this one - will wait until it starts hitting the charity shops. Sorry to all the Jilly fans but she has not written anything decent since "The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous".

i agree.

but this one is good. i'm enjoying it anyway. i think horses are really her scene.
