  • A Little Light Reading

    There have been many times, when I was in work, that I wished I could just spend the afternoon reading my book.  It seems the reading bug has bitten again – this should been seen in a celebratory light however as I’m working from home at the moment it means falling for temptation is all… Read more

  • Hiroshima by John Hersey
