Hullo,Missus! Sorry so little time to chat at TROL, but it ain't what it used to be. What is?
Reading Umberto Eco's THE PRAGUE CEMETERY and finding it fun, so far.
Last Sunday's puz was a pushover I needed after some recent posers!
Best to you and Al, from your friend Raymond R.Posted 1 year ago. ( send a note )

I loved the new Shelock Holmes by Anthony Horowitz (Foyle's War). I think you would like it as well. Hope all is well and you are enjoying your Florida time. See you soon.

Gretchen - Hope all is well. As I said on the phone, let me know if you need me to bring you anything from the library. My best recent read is Please Look After My Mom - I just got Vaclav and Lena and am looking forward to starting it. Talk to you soon.

"Places!" Then urgent and hurried whispers as the cast assume positions before the lights come up and the make-believe begins:
"Break a leg!" But how now? Reality raises its uncouth head and our Old Trout is out with a pin in a fin? 'Taint funny, not here nor
in West Wistful Vista! Nevertheless, one hopes to diminish the discomfort... with maybe a chortle?
Hello, missus!

Hello Gretchen - Hope you are starting to feel better. I just added Vaclav and Lena to my request list. Thanks for the suggestion. Your book came in, About Grace, I am assuming that was a Ray R recommendation. See you soon.

I did not have it on my Nook, and it was extremely heavy!! I liked it, but it got a little tedious. I am reading My Name is Mary Sutter now, and I love, love it!! It must be all the nursing and Albany references! What are you reading?

Regrets for the extended silence. I hope you & yours are all in the pink. My latest addiction is the Martha Grimes/Emma Graham series:
HOTEL PARADISE, COLD FLAT JUNCTION, BELLE RUIN, FADEAWAY GIRL.... HOOKED!

Talk about [being driven to] distraction--what about the last puz?
And I say, isn't it a long time between teas?

Hullo, old trout!
I think the book is EX LIBRIS, by Anne Fadiman. And I think I had it on request from another library but sent it back unread because I knew I was overbooked.
