Monday 8th January Day 170
It’s another morning writing and then a walk along the harbours towards Havre de pas but first I pop in to the bus station to try and retrieve my gloves as it’s cold… and low and behold, they are there – thank you kind bus driver! ((You’re well jammy you are!)) They are well needed as it’s a very cold day and snow is forecast tomorrow although apparently it rarely snows on Jersey. ((That will be your fault Peachy!)) I think we have had every kind of weather whilst we have been here. It’s nice that the gale force winds have finally left and the driving rain. I will take cold and crisp day any day of the week. The wind was so strong it nearly took us off our feet the other day so not nice to walk in and explore the island.
Other than a walk, writing and blogging it’s a quiet day as come the afternoon it’s a bit too cold to brave another walk and we have to be kind to our old bodies. I crack on with a bit more reading once all the work is done in order to reach my reading target this year so settle down to carrying on with The Drift by C.J.Tudor – what a book!
What’s everyone else reading/listening to at the moment and do you have any reading goals for 2024? ((I’ve got one?)) Oh yeah, dare I ask? ((Well, my goal is about reading less nonsense really…)) Yeah, yeah I know exactly what you’re going to say!

After living in various parts of the UK, including Wakefield, York, Derby, and the Yorkshire Dales, I now live on a Narrowboat cruising the canal network. I enjoy reading, writing, travelling, walking, kayaking, watching all forms of motorbike racing and socialising (networking).
At the beginning of my writing journey, I started my blog which tracks the ups and downs of writing. ((I need to mention that my blog posts are usually visited by ‘Brackets’!))
To the books…
