Sweet Caress
Boyd, W. (2015). Sweet Caress. London: Bloomsbury.
However long your stay on this planet lasts, and whatever happens during it, the most important thing is that - from time to time - you feel life's sweet caress.
Amory Clay's life in Berlin, London, NY, Paris, Vietnam, Scotland - loves, and end of life is the story. Dr Anne started reading at Aberdeen Airport on her way to the Chelsea Flower Show and finished it an hour after she arrived home. (She was delayed at Heathrow for three hours.) She turned the pages.
It wasn't as good as Restless, Ordinary Thunderstorms and Waiting for Sunrise. She awards 6/10.
The Band Stand and Pimms
Dr Anne met up with friends SS and MH this week. They headed off to the Chelsea Flower Show. It was their first visit so Dr Anne showed them the ropes then meeting up every two hours for drinks and food.
It was a jazz singer at the bandstand.
The Show Gardens
