Reading continues to be a much needed refuge and delight.
Discovered the charming Charlie Connelly and toured the shipping forecast with him. I visited glaciers, woods at night-time, flew with Concorde, drifted on canal boats, met a penguin in Ukraine, tunnelled through cold-war Berlin, became disorientated at Orford Ness, followed the receding treeline around the globe and delved into the geology of London. I found a word that fits perfectly in Hagitude and enjoyed once again being taught about dinosaurs by Professor Benton.
I will miss Abbot Peter after travelling with him for over twenty years as he took on his final case. Returned to an old favourite in John Wyndham and continued much loved series in the fabulous Rivers of London and the bonkerness of Jodi Taylor’s Chronicles of St Mary’s.
