About mei live in a small hebridean island with my husband and 2 dogs, having had to retire early from my work as a probation officer due to illness.
About my libraryi enjoy reading biographies and historical novels particularly, but have an eclectic taste in reading---- i still have 27 boxes of books as yet unpacked after moving here about a year ago. i am looking forward to rediscovering them. i have a bad amazon habit.
