| It's now about quarter past 6 (PM) here in New Zealand on Christmas Day - and it's just ticked over to Christmas Day for (some of) you folk in the USA. Here, of course, it's summer - and today has been nice, sunny with blue sky and white tufts of cloud. The breeze is cooling. It was hotter last summer, but often January/February are our hottest summer months now. As someone suffering from (peri)menopause, seriously, the heat's a pain. It's hot enough with a hot flush  . I feel like my actual body temperature has gone up several notches in any case (wish it would help burn the body fat.....). Oops, sorry, slight side story there!! Hope everyone on WDC has a lovely day, no matter how you celebrate it   and  (alright, he remains my fav emoji on this site - until you give me a kiwi (bird!! Not the fruit). Merry Christmas everyone. Happy (soon) Boxing Day to the Commonwealth....) Update at 18:38 on Boxing Day - just so you're not jealous of the heat..... heavy rain all day where I am, snow in the south island. Temps muggy but generally cooler than they have been. The usual..... really |

| Question time!! If you could recommend only ONE book to others to read, what would it be? (I was thinking to myself this was easy and then I went.... oh no, it's not. I mean, X book of that genre, Y book of this genre. But.... what if you only had ONE option?????) |
Kit  - I admit I've never actually read this. Guess I'm afraid it might 'ruin' my version of it via the BBC's mini-series..... |
Choconut  - have never read any Marian Keyes but my mum has and likes them. Not read your other either but even the title makes it sound like it's a good one!! |
