I’ve taken a bit of a kind of imposed break in the reading of my history book, Rebellion, which covers the Stuarts from the time of Jame’s coronation of James VI of Scotland as James I of England in 1567. Through to the start of the English Civil War.
We’ve been having some decorating done, and our bed doesn’t currently have a headboard,so I can’t prop up my pillows. Laying pretty much flat on my back trying to read what is a quite heavy book has not been very practical. Hence, I’ve had to stop.
Instead, I am reading a paperback, much more manageable this one is about TED Talks, how to do them – really it’s about how to do public speaking. I bought it because I like the style of the writing, it is very easy to read, apart from being very informative.
I managed to get out for a walk this morning, even though I was really quite tired. Not having a rough night, just waking up and Elayne wanting and making a cup of tea. I did get back to sleep, but managed to wake up in good enough time that I felt able to get out.
I’m glad I did, the light down at the waterfront really was lovely, even if the air was cold.
