Congratulations, Cynthia, on the wonderful reviews of your memoirs. I could relate to what Jacqui said about being so immersed in your world that I forgot about mine. I love it when that happens.

Congratulations on your latest book – I look forward to reading it soon!

Excellent review! (Tried to post this comment a couple of hours ago but lost my internet connection!)
Clare, I thank you. And for trying to post this twice!
We are still away from home and struggling with the internet! Travelling home tomorrow – sad to leave Germany as it’s such a friendly country but it will be nice to be home again.
It is a friendly country. I’ve worked there twice, for short periods, and really enjoyed it. Welcome back home, Clare!
Thank-you Cynthia.
What a great review! Congrats. 🙂
Thank you, Cathleen!
