We moved as quickly as we could as I couldnt stay in the house on my own. I know how horrid the stress must be right now.

My present and more realistic hope is that Mr Nasty in the flat under me might be booted out or he might be detained in a certain 'institution' - though right now he could well be back in a few days time. If he is to suffer one of these preferred (by me) fates then at least that'll take the immediate pressure off me to find an alternative place quickly, though I'd go on trying. That's my current line of thinking and hoping.

Maybe the one that I voted for yesterday will now get a double endorsement from me, but I'm okay with that. (I would be wouldn't I?).<br /><br />With such a big, emergency clear-out of my possessions necessitated here, already many of my books, including some on this list ('Lord Jim' certainly, and maybe 'Brave New World' as well) have gone to charity shops with a lot more still to go the same way. Well, that's too bad. If they come up in your votes I'll just have to acquire them again. However, the way things are right now not sure how I'll get the time to read much over coming weeks anyway, but we'll have to play it day by day.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5275239266133000382.post-33617729641116849682017-08-08T16:52:31.984+01:002017-08-08T16:52:31.984+01:00Hi Ray, I have redone it, please choose all 8 at o...Hi Ray, I have redone it, please choose all 8 at once.

I have been trying to read the classics and the read along seems to really help me hit the goal every month, (bar the blip where my parents have needed me).<br /><br />Hey Ray, I will have to look at changing the voting as I cant remember setting it at that?

There are seven on your list which I haven't read and, after googling them all, had to settle for just the one although at least four of the others intrigue me quite as much.<br /><br />- and I will get back to you for 'Purple' amid all the turmoil going on here which, it looks like, will continue for some considerable time yet.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5275239266133000382.post-38326703472856274392017-08-08T12:57:54.751+01:002017-08-08T12:57:54.751+01:00TBH none of those set me on fire to want to read t...TBH none of those set me on fire to want to read though I did read Lord of the Flys and Animal Farm at school though I preferred George Orwells 1984, you can see his grave in the blog link<br />http://thechurchexporer.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/nineteen-eighy-four.htmlBilly Blue Eyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12053172567806569702noreply@blogger.com
