Next weeeeead!


Hi Everyone.
Next wead is Friday 8th May. Can I ask please that everyone send their emails addresses to this site? I had them to set this up but would like to flag when a new post is posted (is that right expression?).
I am all in favour of orange penguin classics for a bit. They are cheap, look tops on the book shelf and someone else has made the decision already! Next book is Handful of Dust by Evelyn Waugh. I think you'll find it rather interesting.
I have included a photo of two members of the Iwead Club. I don't know any recipes!
The iWead email address is: donkeyhop@gmail.com

PS - Muse seems like a winner - so let's stick with that?
