We're all different. I like a good read, with a not too obvious ending, so I enjoy stuff like Lisa Jewell, Marian Keyes etc It's often called chick lit but I think it has a place alongside the thrillers and murder stuff.

The books are definitely much better than their reputation.

Her books were very good - well plotted, with interesting characters. I think there's a smidgen of male prejudice against books that have women as the main characters, hence the chick lit description

Ooh excellent, she's visiting Ambridge just in time to find out about it 🤣 #thearchers

I just read the last book she wrote - the one they mentioned, about the experience of having a glyoblastoma. She wrote excellent books.

Will never forget! Had just finished installing the new kitchen and it looked GORGEOUS
Until the leak in the boxing in, in the corner, behind two of the new units 😔

I suppose I didn't either until it leaked and ruined some kitchen units I'd just installed 🤣 #thearchets

Oh yes (sadly, I know this from experience 🤣) #thearchers

That's what ours has done too - two locations initially, then took over another practice with two locations. At least the online booking has made the experience better, in our case anyway.
Hope you get sorted soon
December 8, 2025 at 2:16 PM
I wonder if your practice does the online booking yet? I've used ours a couple of times recently with good results both times. Same day if urgent, and within a week for me, non urgent

How might it work in reverse - watch Red Dwarf with them perhaps?

Very realistic I agree. Chris thinking *of course my sister knows I don't want George there* & Emma thinking *of course Chris knows George will drop in, he's my son* #thearchers

Agreed it could be manipulation, George is so good at it - but it sounded so sincere! #thearchers

Until he agreed to keep his secret, I thought Ed did well. He got George to open up to him about being frightened of who he is, wanting to go back inside, and his shame about his mum knowing the truth. I reckon George's noticed it's important to Emma to believe he's a good boy really #thearchers

He's the boss of the Head Chef and Head Waiter, or whatever their new titles are. Head of kitchen and head of Front of House #thearchers

I can't remember why though? #thearchers

I think Susan is allowed to do that training - not sure though
December 5, 2025 at 8:54 PM
I think the sub postmistress is allowed to involve other people in her work but she has to accept responsibility for their mistakes. So you've got to trust them #thearchers

Floyd lives 🤣

It's mostly just referral to online CBT now, isn't it? #thearchers
December 5, 2025 at 7:48 PM
I'd probably have substituted it with cider 🤣 #thearchers
