Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
A very quick post today as I’m remembering someone very special who is no longer with me. If you click the button below you’ll find a link to the post I wrote last year in memory of my mum, who shared her love of books with me and opened up a whole new world: Farewell, […]
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 MoreGood morning, bookworm, it’s so lovely to see you again! Do come in, I’ve just made a stack of pancakes to help mend the broken heart of one of the romance books (I’m trying to wean it off cookie dough ice cream) and you’re welcome to tuck in too. Here you go, would you like […]
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 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 MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, please come on in from the wind – oh, your hat! Don’t worry, the cat is chasing it and I’m sure he’ll bring it back soon. We just need to keep an eye out for him returning or he’ll stash it somewhere, never to be seen again. There’s tea in the pot […]
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 MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Just be careful crossing the floor; I had to clean up the mess left by an altercation between some of the police procedurals and crime mystery books last night about which were superior (after careful negotiation, we have all agreed that they are each superior in their own special […]
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 […]
