Night night, Toni, Ruthie and Chris – bedtime for me  

November already yikes! You might get to sleep on the long train journey

 For the first time in a long time, I am going to have an early night.   I have a really good book to read on my Kindle, but also a real problem to work out before I sleep.  The problem is not mine, but I am going to try to resolve something very serious for a good friend.  Peace and quiet and a cosy bed to organise my thoughts.  So I shall say night night to all and sleep well.  

( Special night night to you Nadine after your traumatic few days.    )

  Night, night Chris.  Not too long now till I see you and Anne.    ( in my tent  )

I too hope you have resolved the problem Danuta & also had a good read. I have just started on a biography of Bess of Hardwick (by Mary S. Lovell). It has been on my book pile for a while awaiting the right moment to start it. I read a lot of history nowadays but not exclusively by any means. I think it might be fun to have a topic on what we are reading, maybe I will start one. I like to know what others read as it pushes me to try other authors & subjects. What do you other readers think?  

Thanks Danuta for your kind wishes. I slept better than usual & I am about to go let the chickens out, hoping for more of an improvement in Antony but being prepared for the worst. It was pretty chilly overnight but he seems to be able to get up onto his usual high perch & was surrounded by his ladies when I locked up yesterday.
