There was an article in the local weekly paper about Steve, and how Leona and Steve's family and friends, the Ministry of Defence and the community have been such a great support in such a trying time. The donations made to the Royal Navy and Royal Marines charities at Steve's funeral came to almost £1300, which is a fantastic amount. It's an indication of how well respected both Steve and Leona are, and the money will be put to good use helping men and women who put their lives on the line to keep us safe.

Things To Occupy Time

From where I'm lying on my bed I can see this pile of things. It's like a to do list, taunting me. Two of the books are urgently in need of some attention, they are Book Group books. The box sets of The Wire were a huge, but enjoyable, distraction from said books. And I have made the mistake of starting the 'Millenium' trilogy by Stieg Larsson, and I can't put the 2nd of the trilogy down. I've read half of it since yesterday! And the last book in the trilogy is silently calling me to read it from the top of the pile. I must resist. I have no chance! If you want a good read for the Summer, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is brilliant, but be prepared to have the uncontrolable urge to read all 3 books in rapid succession. Yes, they are THAT GOOD.
