For people who never seem to have the time to read a book, I can highly recommend this method of "reading" a book. You must have been pleased to have the wonderful Joanna David narrating it too. Many congratulations Justine for your lovely, sensitive book and I will watch your future literary output with great interest.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374295487515048124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-1767980070764281432010-09-15T11:05:08.673-07:002010-09-15T11:05:08.673-07:00don't worry dear blogger, I have been there or...don't worry dear blogger, I have been there or I have to say I am there, I don't know so much about all this stuff, that's why I always ask <a href="http://www.citratesildenafil.com/" rel="nofollow">Sildenafil</a> for her and he always gives me a hand!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-90736029551455790952009-01-11T00:45:00.000-08:002009-01-11T00:45:00.000-08:00you may be interested in knowing that i am a great...you may be interested in knowing that i am a great niece of Maud Waddell - known as Tod by Daphne De Maurier. She was also a prolific painter - mainly watercolours.<BR/><BR/>she also had a sister who lived in Melbourne, Australia who was also a prolific painter, and was Head of the Mathematics department for many years at the church of england girls grammar school in Melbourne.<BR/><BR/>They had 2 brothers - the youngest being my maternal grandfather - Frederick W Waddell - known as Fred, who emigrated to New Zealand.

Would be very nice to say hello tomorrow, but I'm actually out tomorrow evening - I should be able to say hello afterwards... what time do you finish? 10ish? Maybe best to email me about it on simondavidthomas@yahoo.co.uk ? (This all depends on me feeling well enough to do anything tomorrow evening, of course!)<BR/><BR/>Have just been looking at your Virago post - and couldn't agree more! My favourites are Delafield's Provincial Lady; Edith Oliver's The Love Child (do seek this out); Vita Sackville-West's All Passion Spent; Dodie Smith's I Capture The Castle; Mollie Panter-Downes' One Fine Day... etc. etc.... <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I LOVE Rebecca, one of my favourite books, though the only Daphne du Maurier I have yet read. Karen (at www.cornflower.typepad.com) and myself are embarking on a Reading Daphne Backwards project soon, starting with her last novel and working our way to her first...<BR/><BR/>By the by, are review copies of Daphne still going out, or should I just buy one?!StuckInABookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10017836017530130716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-34990126502823889092008-04-02T13:47:00.000-07:002008-04-02T13:47:00.000-07:00Not sure.
