We’ve been so lucky with the weather so far. It started raining this afternoon just as we were getting in the car to head home, after we had finished seeing what we wanted to see for the day

Rather like here in UK Judy with the weather, as we make the most of every day of sunshine as it doesn’t last long. Although we are having a heatwave at this time.Have a good day x

Hi Sal, so far the latest Jo Nesbo has only been printed in his native language, Norwegian. I just had a look at The Book Depository and they don’t have it, in fact they only have one Nesbo title in Norwegian. Apparently the first print run of the book sold 270,000 in 2 days. Not sure about ebooks – I noticed one person using an iPad on the bus, but otherwise there doesn’t seem to be a huge penetration of electronic gadgetry. Not like in Singapore where at least 80% the locals on the subway were plugged into some kind of screen (phone, ereader, iPod, tablet) and it was common to see people playing games and getting off the train STILL PLAYING!

The Royal Palace Park looks so inviting . Jude , I bet the locals are into e books if they have to pay $ 70 , or great supporters of The Book Depository !
