yes, last weekend our village had a car boot fair down at the “Wop Wops”, the small park run by a local business (Norsewool) which features native eels amongst other items. I shot down at 10am on the scooter and bought books and raffle tickets. Great combination. I dived into the books at once – one at least will be excellent fodder for older books reviews I do for a UK magazine – while the raffle tickets provide pleasant anticipation for weeks until I hear the results.
And, still more happily, the next village to the north of us will be having their usual bookarama in May. My oldest friend tends to take me to that as my birthday present, and I can go really mad buying books then with both hands. Ah, as Andre used to say to me, “Cats, books, life is good.”

Wop Wops? Where does that come from? Unusual name for a park.
Hi, Lyn, Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this, but I’ve been seeing all the news about the mega storms headed your way, and just wanted to ask if you and yours are doing all right over there? At least, so far? I’m holding good thoughts for you over here in Florida. Peg
