Hi All - Back on boards since months ago. Had to join in this one.

I so agree about 84 Charing Cross Road . - I can always re-read it!

Cider With Rosie - (Laurie Lee) A true classic

As for suggestions - For a light. happy read. Try the books by Philip Serrell, the auctioneer :-
'Sold To the Man with The Tin Leg' & 'An Auctioneers Lot' - Brilliant

Have just read 'Far Horizons' by Frank Gardner (The BBC correspondent who was shot & crippled) - Inspiring & amazing.

Have to agree with Paula - OH has both Philip's books. We went to 'an evening with' and Philip was so entertaining.

I love this thread so full of ideas & new books

Its great to get others thoughts & opinions

I have just discovered Rebecca Shaw - just for a very light casual read - nothing heavy

I love Mary Jane Staples Adams family saga - kept me amused for years - I have the whole collection

I do read heavy books as well - but sometime just need to switch off in a light family saga.
