    Bubblin' Books for Jan '14

    Never heard of any of 'em,Peder! Only joking! Good luck with reading them. I usually have my eye on at least 3 or 4 titles I fancy reading,but quite often get distracted by browsing online or in the library,Meadow.

    Up in the attic in my sleepy chair,or in a quiet forest glade. I do read on the bus too,and even in a quiet old fashioned pub!
