THE LETTER FROM ITALY out now! Hannah and Verna were best friends since childhood, until accusations fly. Can they reconcile when a stranger sends a letter from Italy, revealing devastating secrets?
2016 was a weird year. Of those we lost; Bowie, George Michael, Victoria Wood, Alan Rickman & more, I find myself pining for Carrie Fisher. Her writing gives me so much joy. The humour, pathos, wordplay and wit; laughing & crying in one sentence. Sadly we’ll never know what more she could have given

A bright and breezy walk over the High Level Bridge to buy fresh fruit from the Grainger Market this morning. Taking in the sights of my wonderful city 🤩

Hannah and Verna's friendship fractures when one accuses the other's husband of infidelity. A stranger's letter from Italy reveals devastating secrets, but is the damage too deep for the friends to reconcile? #Books #Writing

Someone got there before me, replaced Alison Steadman for BJ. I’ve added an apt sticker, could get some real ones printed, but then I’d have to buy the book for defacing it 😬
£15 quid to read that narcissistic, bloviating dross, nah!

Love my local, The Central Bar, Gateshead. Proper pub, great beers, congenial atmos, cracking playlist in background so you can hear the craic, or find a cosy corner to read. Wonderful, knowledgeable staff, perfect 🍻 cheers!

Anyone know if ‘Ryder’ has made it over to the bright side?
Haven’t seen his Blakey off ‘On The Buses’ profile.

Fog on The Tyne all mine on this moody morning.
Come rain hail or shine, whatever the weather, I’ll never be tired of seeing those bridges
