That got me started, and then I let my Mum read the books, and she liked them just as much as I did.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-56260788364878071372014-10-24T01:19:05.653+02:002014-10-24T01:19:05.653+02:00I do enjoy her books Meike.

When I cut my finger nearly off on a shard of glass 11 years ago, bleeding from the cut as if you'd turned on a tap, Steve's first reaction was "Shall I make you a cup of tea?". How English is that!!Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-86183481066184212172014-10-23T09:06:41.789+02:002014-10-23T09:06:41.789+02:00We certainly do, Friko.

Your life seems very exotic compared to how I spend my days, but something we have in common is blogging - and that is what I like so much about it, that it allows me glimpses into other people's lives, broadening my horizon.<br /><br />You are right about what you said about the past.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-47272310964847212212014-10-23T00:58:31.438+02:002014-10-23T00:58:31.438+02:00Hey Meike!
