I'm reading.....
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. Not my usual sort of thing but I found it on my patio on holiday and it had a Bookcrossing tag on it so I thought I'd give it a go. I find some of the language a bit stilted but then it has been translated from Spanish so it may be due to that. Most of the reviews I have read have described it a gripping page-turner, unfortunately not me, so far. I'll let you know.

I'm eating.....
goodies from a deli called by the name of Effings which WH brought me back from Exeter. So far I have sampled the marinated sun dried tomatoes and a bean salad, WH loved their pain-raisin too. Tomorrow I've got fresh pesto which I'll be having in the Ligurian style with pasta, new potatoes and green beans. Heaven.
I'm watching.....
beautiful, baby blue tits fluttering and trying to fly from the willow at the bottom of my garden to the neighbour's garage roof and back again. The squeaky little chirrups whilst they do this is lovely! I'm keeping my cats well out of the way whilst all this is going on. Nelson however, is very wary of all feathered creatures at the moment having been pecked by a huge crow in the oak tree last week. Pack-hunting with Misty, he went too close for comfort and by the sound of the scream and the ensuing squawking the crow had the last laugh.
