I had to stop reading at one point ... as I was laughing too much to see the words!

That is the charm of This Time Next Year by Liz Hinds. You want to go shopping with Aliss and her friends, help her sort out her relationships, and throttle her son--oops!

It is a great read. Made me laugh and cry.

Either we are in the universe to inhabit the lovely eternity of our souls and grow real, or else we might as well dedicate our days to shopping and kill time watching talk shows. John O'Donohue, Eternal Echoes: Celtic Reflections on Our Yearning to Belong
'Do you remember that television series with Robin wotsit and his daughter when there was a shot of Three Cliffs in the opening sequence?'
I stared at husband. 'That rings absolutely no bells whatsoever.'
'You know, he was in Man About the House.'
'Yes, I know who you mean but I think Robin was his character's name because he had a restaurant called Robin's Nest.'
'You could be right. He died young.'
'Are you thinking of whatisname?'
'Yes, Godber. I could be.'
The worrying thing is that this conversation made perfect sense to both of us. (We spent a lot of time in the seventies watching television as we had children and no babysitters.)
P.S. The television series was called Me and My Girl and here's the opening sequence, which was indeed filmed on Three Cliffs beach. And I still don't remember it. I put it down to lack of sleep.
