So, I didn’t get anything ticked off the long-runners list – although I have made some progress. But the new Lucy Parker arrived and I just couldn’t help myself. Also it was another super busy week – with a theatre trip and three nights away from home. This week might be slightly less busy, but I hesitate even to type that because it feels like tempting fate. Who said August was a quiet month?!

Well I didn’t buy any books either on Kindle or when I went to Waterstones Gower Street, which is an achievement in itself. One pre-order did arrive though – as you may know – but they’ve already been counted.
