Are any of you planning to listen to tomorrow's War and Peace marathon on Radio4? I got a head start and listened to episode one over dinner tonight. It's very good, though I'm still trying to keep up with who's who as it's far too many years since I read it. (Anyone else remember the 1970s TV series with Anthony Hopkins?) I'm making no promises about sticking it out to the end - but for now I'm turning up the sound to drown the fireworks outside. If only I were a bit further into the story, they'd stand in for cannon.

I fell for AH in a big way as a result of that series, and for Tolstoy, too ...
Happy new year, Mary!
And you, Cornflower! Was it a big night in Edinburgh?
Happy New Year, Mary! We watched the fireworks in London from our laptop, thanks to youtube, in Burlington. What a show!
Happy to read your previous post about what a fun time Paddington is. I, for one, will not worry one little bit about being sans children when it comes to town...can't wait!
I was thinking of you, Darlene - I remember walking past those shops on Portobello Rd with you last time you visited.
Happy New Year!
