Two more days to our holiday

And so far I have ignored all the washing that needs to be done, all the things that need to be found and I have created a pile of books that will hopefully sustain, educate and amuse me whilst I am in Normandy for two weeks.

The former political studies student in me has been meaning to read Andrew Rawnsley's books on New Labour for ages so that got them onto the pile. The woman who struggles with weight in me was recommended "Fat Around the Middle", all I have to say is hmmm. Then I decided that some light relief was needed, so thank crunchie for Marian Keyes. And finally a little bit of murder courtesy of Nicola Upson.

Here's hoping I get beyond more than page 10 of any of them!
