Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good evening, bookworm, do come in. Here, let me take your coat so the cats don’t lie on it and you get comfortable by the fire. Do you like the new forest green colour on the chimney breast? I had to go for a dark colour thanks to the dragons getting a little over-excited when […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm, do come in out of the rain. Mind the pans on the floor; the roof seems to have sprung a leak. I’m just waiting for it to dry out then I’ll have the DIY books take a look at it – I’m sure they’ll have it sorted as quick as a flash. Speaking […]
Read MoreWell hello, bookworm, how lovely it is to see you on this rainy January day! Come in and get dry by the fire. I’d say happy new year since this is the first visit of 2021 but that may be stretching the acceptable social conventions of that one a little too far since we’re almost […]
Read MoreGood evening, bookworm, do come in. Would you mind flicking the Christmas lights around the door, please? They’re a little temperamental, especially since the cats try and bat the lower bulbs. Ah, perfect! I love the different shadows and glow they cast upon the walls of my book nook; it looks rather artistic in a […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, have you been waiting long? I’m sorry I didn’t hear you knocking; I was in a world of my own there while I was dusting the bookshelves and trying to ignore the squabbling. It’s always the same: The classics genre seem to think a bit of dust adds a degree of gravitas to […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, come in, come in. I feel like one of the dragons today, seeing clouds of steam on the cold air as I breathe. I have a hot cup of tea and some freshly toasted crumpets all ready for you to help you warm up. Here come the cats to snuggle on our laps […]
Read MoreHello there, bookworm, and do come in. It’s almost dark so I’ll just light a few lamps and candles to make it cosy in my little library. Sit yourself down in a comfy chair, help yourself to a fluffy blanket, some cake and a cat or two and I’ll be with you in a moment […]
Read MoreWell, hello bookworm, do come in! It’s lovely to see you again, but I hope you won’t mind me bustling about a little while we talk. You see, last night, when all should have been quiet in the bookshelves, a little exploratory party scuttled over to the crime shelves for a look at the latest […]
Read MoreOh, hello bookworm, I didn’t hear you come in! I was just having a quiet moment with my cats and a steaming hot cup of coffee. Do hear that? No sound other than the occasional rustle of pages from the bookshelves. All is blissfully calm here, for a change so I’m making the most of […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm, do come in. Can you believe we’re almost halfway through October? It’s my favourite season, full of snuggly blankets, hot chocolate and cosiness. Speaking of cosiness, I want to tell you about a book I’ve just read: It’s called Boomerville at Ballymegille and is written by Caroline James. Before I get to my […]
