Just finished reading ‘Snuggie Bain’ by Douglas Stuart.
What an outstanding book. The story of a young single parent (most of the time) family where that parent, the mother is an alcoholic. So we’ll written you feel like you’re almost in the room with them

Just wanted a to make a general point about courts that I’ve found the general public don’t appreciate.
As far as a court is concerned there are rules about what can be put into evidence and if it isn’t put before the court it didn’t happen (irrespective of whether it did in the outside world)

Not a huge fan of Booker Prize winning books usually but I’m reading Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart (2020 winner) and honestly it’s one of the best books I’ve ever read. It’s so descriptive it’s like being there with them

Just like much of the furore this week, here is an example of a law passed 4 years ago and the Tories did nothing with it. Within months of us being in power we delivered the scheme because we are about actual actions and real outcomes. They talked we walked. www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2484314...

I can see friends of mine being sucked into the cesspit created by the lies and propaganda / misinformation being spread by the right wing and genuinely am starting to feel sorry that decent people at heart aren’t more questioning. The lies are easy to disprove but by then the argument is lost

Christmas has always been a double edged sword for me as an adult. It becomes less of a break and a chance to relax and more of a routine that you feel duty bound to be part of.
I work alone and have done for the majority of the last 20 years so no ‘works do’ to look forward to.

Just having a brief conversation on the other place about England & Wales sentencing guidelines and how they are revised or implemented. I found this pretty informative for anybody interested.

My first December book that I loved is the first Michael J Fox autobiography. Loved it the first day I picked it up.

Well I have never done this on Bluesky before so let’s see how you cope with my December song per day. No particular order I just love every one for some reason. Enjoy!
I’ll do a book per day too.

It’s surprising how much enjoyment I get from a well written, well researched non-fiction book in amongst all the fiction stuff I read.
