Marvelous posting! Gardening books are sort of a lost art.

I do hope you’ve had the experience of also reading Mr. Beverly Nichols various gardening books - which amuse the observant reader to no end. ‘Merry Hall’ is my favorite…

Thanks for recounting your wonderful train ride journey.

Excellent!

I remember one summer I read almost everything Beverley Nichols had in the library.

And since I’ve spent years working on fixing up my own ‘Merry Hall’, I can relate to everything.

So funny… I even blogged about it today.

I hope you are feeling heaps better. The NHS staff are brilliant- glad you felt so well looked after. It certainly helps the healing.

I am hoping that was a sneaky bit of the sequel to “Murder by Narwhal” 🙏, because I am more than desperate to read it 😂 Best book I have ever read, ever, did I say ever 😂
