Crikey, haven’t been here in a while I’m ashamed to say.

So, it’s time for a bit of a catch up as far as books are concerned. With less than 3 months to go, I’ve written about 18 books on here so still 12 to go to reach the magical number of thirty which I hoped to have read by the end of 2009.

That’s pretty much a book a week which although it isn’t an unattainable target, it’s unlikely - especially with the things which are coming in the weeks ahead…

1.  I’d like to get back to reading more, and hopefully will get a bit more time to do so as the year progresses.  The target for the year is to read at least 20 books.

2.  Our visit to Paris showed up just how little French I have remembered - not surprising really as I’ve had little chance to use it since leaving school.  Target is to brush up on this and learn a little German too.
