What else has been happening this week:

My son was ill for the first half of the week so he was at home. He was then back to school on Wednesday though so that was good. On Thursday I went with my mum and step dad to Tunbridge Wells to see some of the places that my Granddad used to live and work in. Before he died my mum took him round Tunbridge Wells so that he could tell her more about his life. This weekend we will be doing some Christmas shopping and.going on a walk to collect some leaves to make a nature picture for my son’s homework!

How has your week been?

    Oh, I’m glad your son is on the mend. And, what a wonderful experience to remember your granddad with your mom. (Sorry I wrote “mom” instead of “mum.” I’m completely good with the British English “mum”, I just don’t think it sounds like me if I were talking to you. I hope that makes sense.)

    THE WILL by Rebecca Reid looks promising. I’m glad to hear you loved it so much.

      Thank you. Oh I am completely fine with how you spell mum. It is nice that you type how it is for you – the beauty of a worldwide platform ๐Ÿ˜Š I always reply in my British and I know what you mean ๐Ÿคฃ It seems strange to spell it differently to what you are used to.

      It was nice to see where granddad loved and worked when he was there.

      I enjoyed it. Completely gripped by it ๐Ÿคฃ

      Thank you. It is a good read, but it is quite heavy on the detail so it is taking me a long time to read it. I am already maybe 3ish weeks in and have only just hit the half way point. I am a slow reader and I have been other books instead as the Blog Tours are coming up, but still…

      Have a great week too ๐Ÿ™‚

    It sounds like you went on a trip down memory lane. That’s a wonderful way to experience the past.

    And good for you in planning to get some Christmas shopping done. I have to wait until the last minute or I forget what I bought.

    The Cornish Cream Tea Bookshop sounds delightful.

      It was great. A shame that a lot of the stuff had been knocked down or changed, but there was still a lot there.

      Oh we have excel spreadsheets. There are all sorts of mathematical things that happen due to my partner setting it all up! Our shopping starts in the January sales and then ramps up over October…

      I have high hopes for it!
