I came away with two books. The first was Lady Rose and Mrs Memmary by Ruby Ferguson, which I have wanted to read for ages. It was a favourite of the late Queen Mother, or so I read somewhere (that's not why I wanted to read it). The second book was The Runaways by Elizabeth Goudge. 'Previously published as Linnets and Valerians', the cover proclaims. I don't understand why anyone would want to change an intriguing name to a dull one, but who I am to question the wisdom of the publishing world?
Then I took my car to the service station and filled the tyres. With air, obviously. So, yes, exciting day.

Yesterday at work, we watched this:
I think it's sad, simple and rather sweet. My colleague Simon thought it was trite and clichéd, but he had previously been watching the trailer for the new Twilight film, so his is clearly a faulty judgement.
