What a bout something lighthearted/funny to cheer us through the dark dismal days of post-Christmas and New Year gloom? Or would you all prefer something more 'meaty'?

I think the light-hearted option is a good one Daisy.Preferably not a slushy, lovey one for me but I'm happy to go with the flow.Nothing springs to mind at the moment though!Comment

It's called "Teacher, Teacher" and it's £4.99 on Kindle and £7.99 in paperback."Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognise how good things really are. "
