Well I didn't quite make the 30 that I aimed for but I don't think 22 was too shabby a total. I'm reading Bill Bryson - Notes from a Small Island at the moment and loving it. It's hilariously funny and just great for perking up a cold, wet January when I can grab a few minutes to myself. We'll see how long it takes me to get through my first book of 2007.......
