Trudging

In these times of high drama( the Parish Council have emailed us about the state of our hedge; accusations of hacking can not be far behind) it is nice to have a good steady plod to read about.
Luminous Coast by Jules Pretty has provided that.

I enjoyed it, not wildly but enthusiastically enough to encourage me to switch some of my coastal allegiance from the west to the east. It has also made me consider exploration over the summer which may be no bad thing!

There is a nice running (Ed... shouldn't that be walking?) gag about the lack of snow, skis and the like being mentioned by onlookers as the author, using walking poles, makes his way.

Another one from our recently saved Library Services.
