You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever

Weather warning for high winds so I stayed in today, finishing The Fifth Elephant and starting another Miss Silver mystery. Miss Silver is readable enough, I suppose, and certainly better for the stodgy brain than Four Roads Cross but I'm not sure I'm exactly enjoying this. However, the library copy is much in demand so I forge onwards. Some day I'll find the energy to do something more than the bare minimum of anything and stop sitting on the couch all day, which of course makes things hurt worse when I do get up. But for now wanhope has me in its grasp and I simply don'wanna do anything about it.

A problem I have with Miss Silver is that once one gets used to her, you can usually spot the murderer half the book away.

Rather like Lorac, she does go in for very least likely.
