Nothing to do with the over-hyped 50 Shades stuff, but I've been spending a lot of time in bed with a nasty flu bug and, when not sleeping, books have been a great solace and good companions.
My most recent read was by Lisa Gardner, a psychological thriller named Crash and Burn.
This story kept me guessing, right to the end. Clearly all is not as it seems when this psychological crime thriller opens on the scene of a nasty car accident and an injured but lucky-to-be-alive victim who is anxious for the safety of her missing companion - daughter? - Vero. A police sniffer dog fails to find a trail other than Nicky's at the scene of the car wreck at the bottom of a woodland ravine on a remote road in New Hampshire, USA. Poor, concussed Nicky awakens in hospital to be confronted by a man she does not recognise - who says he is her husband. There are so many layers to the plot and, as one mystery is apparently resolved, another is revealed. What is the truth about identity, crimes and victimhood? Nicky is well described, as are the investigators involved in the case, who at times have to question whether there is a case at all. It really is a jolly good, satisfying read.

Hi Sue, I found your interesting blog by chance. I work as a local gardener in and around my village. Im showing physical wear and tear now after just four years of constant gardening and I fear my elbows and wrists will not be able to do what I want going forwards! I was thinking about doing a blog but was wondering how you started! If you can help me, I would be happy to post you a few seeds for your garden! Thanks, Sarah My email address is slcrombie72@gmail.com
