This week, mostly

I’m reading…..

Homeland by Clare Francis. Set on the Somerset Levels in 1946 it tells the story of a Polish soldier who refuses to go back to Poland and finds work on a local withy farm during one of Britain’s harshest winters. Lovely descriptions of the Levels and the surrounding areas along with a poignant story. I love this are and the book is very evocative.

I’m eating….

turkey. Cooked a huge one last Saturday which had been languishing in the freezer since Christmas. Now it’s turkey with everything!

I’m listening…..

to the silence. WH finally fixed the incredibly squeaky bathroom floor which had squeaked and grated and wheezed when walked on for the last 20 years. The silence truly is golden.
