It is a question often asked – what is your favourite music; what is your favourite restaurant; what is your favourite book? The list is if not endless then very long. I don’t know about other people, but for me it is always a question that elicits an answer that is – at best – evasive. The problem, for me, is that all the topics on which one might be asked “your favourite” are extremely subjective and it is, again for me, nigh on impossible to come up with a definitive answer.
Fun
A Bit Of Light Relief
OK, so a bit of fun tonight and, as it’s Saturday it ought to be something to complete with Strictly 😏
Nearly French😂
I think that a bit of fun is called for seeing as it is Saturday.
Its Mozart – But Not As You Know It
Think it is time for something lighter – this is from Mozartwoche Salzburg a few years ago and I am sure it will bring a smile – mostly to my Scottish friends!!🏴🏴
Thickening Up Facebook
Its a common complaint and a justified one in my opinion that Facebook has too much “junk” and not enough content. I have been challenged over recent days over what I could do about that and this is my first attempt at formulating those thoughts.
Lustrum
Another volume about the Rome of Cicero.
In a House of Lies
Rebus continues…
Conclave
Change of pace – and a return to Rome. Just started this book – so far it is keeping me interested.
No spoilers, but nothing much happens in this book – well, that’s not strictly accurate, but for a ‘thriller’ it is for the most part devoid of action – perhaps best described as a “political intrigue”. For me, the book also failed to deliver any real surprises – again, that is part of the “nothing happens” feeling – but it did keep me hooked to see how things ended.
The Discovery of Slowness
Something different and, like the previous book I read, a present from someone so not necessarily a book that I would have picked up myself. Just a couple of chapters in at the moment and it is very interesting – and very different.
Origin
Typical Dan Brown page turner. Good to read, easy to read – not too taxing!
