Kickin’ in the front seat or sittin’ in the back seat: which is it today folks?

Workwise, it should be ok today, then - rain permitting - I have a bat monitoring session this evening. That might be pushed to next weekend though (I’d get to watch the Perseids at the same time, if it was, by the look of it).

And then out to an open air production of A Winter’s Tale tomorrow night - also rain permitting and the forecast is currently saying it won’t.

What have you got lined up?

    Had no idea there was a sequel! Brilliant.

    I really need to try and give Children of Time another go. Tried the audiobook but couldn’t get into it.

      Do it, do it, do it. Children of Time is amazing, it’s taken second place on my all time sci-fi faves list (after Foundation).

      Yup Forever Peace.

      Definitely give the ‘Children of…’ series another go.

      I personally struggle with audiobooks. I’m not one of those who claim audiobooks aren’t ‘real’ books, it’s just that for me, when I read a book via print (e or standard) there’s just me and the author. When it’s an audiobook, no matter how good the narrator might be, there’s now this 3rd person in the process and they might have their own take on how a character speaks or inflects or put emphasis on things I don’t. I just find it really jarring.
