I’m at my mam’s, so here’s a few photos. First up, as mentioned upthread, the Jolly Postman. My mam always wrote our names and the date on the inside cover, so this was given to my older brother at Christmas 1989.

The Island by Armin Greder is a brilliant book about refugees, vulnerability, loneliness, selfishness etc.

Anyone seen anything good lately?

Local library had a bunch of new stuff in, got an excellent haul even with having to save a lot for next time.
