    OMG!!!! I was doing family tree research for my daughter. I uncovered my Dad’s cousin was in Stallag Luft III during the Great Escape. 44972 F/LT James DW Willis was part of the escape committee!

    I woke up early & have written 320 words in 2 hrs of writing this morning. Whilst that doesn't seem much (& in some ways it isn't), I'm pleased with what I have produced. .

    In the pub with a mate tonight. 11pm came & went without either of us actually noticing . The sun will rise tomorrow & whatever happens in the future I will still feel very lucky to live in such a wonderful beautiful country.

    Did you know Walt Disney signed up for the American Red Cross as a volunteer with a forged passport? We’re sharing fun connections with today in Kansas City to highlight what connects us.

    You gotta love a bit of decent customer service from staff at Hull. My wheelchair bound dad able to use to lift to get a good view of the film, rather than being stuck at the front by the screen. Well done & thanks

    update: staying at my parents, I had the most restful unbroken sleep I’ve had in months - EIGHT hours. Now all I have to do is strap the double bed & mattress to the roof of my car & cart it back home 😎😎😎

    - 4th night running where I’ve had a couple of hours of sleep & spent the rest of the night with brain in overdrive. It is bloody horrendous! Never been this bad since we moved in to this house about 6 years ago.

    You finish on a real sense of satisfaction that only comes from reading high quality. Would I recommend the book? Without reservation YES! /End

    For Mary’s demise, some of which might have given me a different view of Tom. But that’s just me being me (& lacking a decent imagination). Lastly, the way Vee ties up the loose ends & hitherto separate stories into the concluding chapters is a real treat. 6/

    If I have 1 tiny gripe it would be that the cause of Mary’s death is only explained 80% of the way through the book. As it turns out, this is the right place for the big reveal as it ties up some loose ends. My gripe is because my imagination was suggesting all sorts of causes 6/

    Fascinating details that help to move you from the page into the actual event or place or situation. But she does so never getting bogged down with too much detail, which helps the book move along. 5/

    This is rare ability to show Tom as a full character & not hide some of his more negative traits & Vee should be commended for her skill. She should also be congratulated on the quality of her storytelling. The book rolls along at a cracking pace yet she’s able to give you 4/

    Captain Tom as he was for most of the book is Vee’s grandfather, so you could accuse her of being biased or too close to the main protagonists. But you’d be wrong. She somehow manages to tread the fine line between love for her relative & telling the story objectively. 3/

    It was a beautifully constructed & intelligently crafted narrative, masterfully weaving its way through disparate lives to build a story that was engaging, interesting and where it was impossible not to warm to the central characters. 1/
