Hi Claire,
Just a thought.....would anyone be interested in a spring group read? Since we're all going to be cooped up anyway
I was thinking of pure comfort blanket.....even if it's something we've done already! Maybe a Pullein-Thompson book? With the books everyone already have, or can get easily via ebook, it might not be hard to pull together? I'd love to do I Wanted a Pony again, but I'm open to suggestions!
On other topics, hope everyone is coping ok! I've spent the last two weekends binging on Miss Marple....yah, Joan Hickson

How about I Had Two Ponies ? The children get an extended holiday as they are in quarantine for measles. Or No Entry, by Monica Edwards ? Castle Farm goes into lockdown to prevent foot and mouth disease getting to their livestock. Both very enjoyable books.

Sounds fun, I am living with my parent's at my brother Brians house, maybe if we dont all have the same book there can be more than 1, maybe try to have the same feel.

Hi all, apologies for not being around for a while. Had huge internet problems (not to mention financial upheaval) and due to the virus it has been very hard to sort them out. As luck would have it was also not able to access the forum on my phone!!
I was thinking along the same lines so well done Susan in stepping in.
Hope everyone is doing OK. Brumby..so sad to hear about your business...I am really struggling to keep mine afloat. After a lot of complaints, the Government here are helping small businesses, although we have to struggle on for another couple of months before we get any financial help.
