I can't beat the last name I put in here, but you certainly don't get little girls called Lettice Ulpha these days!

Titlewise I can offer Chaper 21 of The Murder at Crome House by GDH and Margaret Cole : 'I've been murdered ...'

Today I had the dubious privelege of ordering a book by the magnificantly named: 

Frisbee Candidia Cheyenne Sheffield

Whilst doing the new fun (well I think it is fun) cataloguing project at work I came accross an advert for: 

The Vacillations of Hazel by Mabel Barnes-Grundy

Needless to say, this amused me (it doesn't take much).

Also on the same advert were two of the most dodgily titled books I have seen for a while (same author): 

Two in a tent - and Jane 
The Undressed Heroine

I am waiting to see if we have any of these on the shelves ...

Edited to add yesterday's contradictory title: 

Men dislike women: a romance by Michael Arlen

Quite a lot to say this time as it has been a while since I updated.

Work is well ... work. Mostly things have not improved in the slightest, and I don't think they will as long as I remain in my current position. I was looking to leave this year, but now I have had a possible research project suggested, which sounds really good. So I am a little torn.
Study is going slowly, although I am enjoying this module a lot more than the management module - it is jsut getting back into good study habits that is proving very hard. Again, I am getting more support for that at work (somewhat indirectly though)

On a more positive note, I have lost 6kg/12lb from my heaviest weight - which I am really pleased about. The Yoga is going well too, so <fingers crossed> my health should finally be on the up! I have even done a little Yoga at home, which might start me exercising at home now too (especially as I have exercises to do from the physio too).

The knitting is coming along nicely, and I should be able to get to both 'Stitch 'n' Bitch' meetups this month, as there is no Yoga next week. Speaking of which, despite my recent defection from the Gwerin, I have decided to join Team Wales for the Knitting Olympics:



Why not? I qualify under their rules ....

I have still not started the cross-stitch I need to have done, and framed, by Mothers' Day, as my motivational issues are spilling over into that too. I really shall have to get a move on with that after the weekend.

I am also more determined than ever to learn to crochet, as I have had some great crochet books out from the library recently.
