Watch out!
![IMGP4518[1]](https://thingschange.blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/imgp451811.jpg?w=300)
We were only expecting a gentle stroll in Ruskin Park but the waiting ambulance and police cars suggested something was about to happen, and then, in flys the Kent Air Ambulance, just yards away.No comments on Watch out! -
A Quiet Belief in Angels – R.J. Ellory
I really enjoyed A Quiet Belief in Angels by R.J. Ellory. It’s a fairly lengthy crime thriller, well written though perhaps a little rushed at the end – did the author lose interest? Set in small-town America, it’s another book about a book. Recommended. -
I gotta slow down my book buying!
The sunshine promised today for central London didn’t materialise and so the camera stayed in its case. However not far from Kings Cross is Skoob Books (nearest tube is Russell Square), a great second-hand bookshop. Today’s haul was Derek B Miller’s Norwegian By Night, Derek Raymond’s How the Dead Live, Jim Lehrer’s The Special Prisoner, and Walter Mosley’s The Man In My Basement. Some good finds I think. -
I enjoyed this (full screen & through headsets)

Tough guy likes to drink tea
Francis Tea Rooms in Scarborough (“A unique 30’s style setting with wood panelled booths”) has to be one of the strangest places to have a cake and an old-fashioned pot of loose leaf tea. Give it a try!

More second-hand books!
There are a couple of good second-hand bookshops in Scarborough, an OK one opposite the steam railway station in Pickering, and none that I could find in Malton. My browsing resulted in buying three books: Donna Tartt’s The Little Friend, John Updike’s Terrorist, and Reggie Nadelson’s (who?!) Fresh Kills. I’m happy with that haul! -
The Snowden Files – Luke Harding
The Snowden Files by Luke Harding is the first of what will no doubt be many books about Edward Snowden’s leaking of the astonishing extent to which the US and UK spying agencies spy on the world’s citizens. It’s a mixed bag of a book but you get the essence of Snowden’s story and the essential details of the leaks. We now know that all our digital comunications are being collected by our government. This cannot be a good thing and Edward Snowden surely deserves support for putting his life on the line so that we should know what has been done. Recommended.
