Took a couple of photos showing you the vole tracks, so no doubt what grass we have will be all dug up now!!
I have been busy reading, so of course nothing else has been getting done. Anyhow "won" this book through Chatelaine Magazine, and it was so good. Marian Keyes, "This Charming Man."
It didn't take me long to get into it, and it was interesting, as I learned a lot about domestic violence, which is a theme which is intertwined throughout this story. Also I love the Irish expressions used in this story as well; ones that I hadn't heard in years. As you know I rarely read a book twice, so I will be donating this to my local library.
Did you remember to put your money in your Daily Savings Pot?

Sign up for every free customer rewards program you can. Even if you rarely shop at that place, having a rewards card for that place will eventually net you some coupons and discounts. Here’s the basic game plan for maximizing these programs: create a Gmail address just for these mailings, collect every card you can, and then check that account for extra coupons whenever you’re ready to shop.
While writing this on Wednesday night I have to the worst headache ever. So not doing much of a post tonight, sorry.
I am a British born, living in Canada since May of 1989. My blog is about all aspects of my daily life.

Hi,I read the same book a couple of months ago! It took me ages to get through it, I thought the story was dragged on and on and on. At the moment I am reading R. D. Wingfeild's Frost books. I'v nearly finished the one and the 6th is the last. They are really funny and sad at the same time. Its difficult to put them down. Wish we had snow here.

Hi there Gill,
I hope you're headache is better this morning! I love the pictures of the mole tracks, they're cute little critters, but the do indeed do a job on the lawn!
Gill, I hope you are feeling better by now. God bless real big, Liz
I despise voles. They are an utter nuisance and absolutely destructive, aren't they?! (They are nothing like moles, which are kind of cute.)
I hope your headache has subsided and you're feeling much better today!
Feel Better Gill! Those voles are quite something aren't they!
Blessings, GG
Hope your headache is now gone. Love seeing those tracks yet don't like what has caused them. Hugs
Loved this book! Just finished it a week or two ago. Had a difficult time with the voice of the first narrator ... the incomplete sentences, etc. Got used to it in the end, but found it very distracting throughout. Otherwise, LOVED IT! Loved the surprise near the end. Absolutely love when a book surprises me. This was an unexpectedly enjoyable read as I didn't have high expectations for it.
