	Virgin Earth by Philippa Gregory. It's a follow on from Earthly Joysit's about John Tradescant and John Tradescant the younger who were Charles 1st's gardners just before the civil war. I'm enjoying it...just wish I had more time to read more than a chapter at a time ! x

	Is that Borley in Essex/Suffolk, Robin? The brave kids at school used to go there at night in the older kids cars because it was said to be haunted! I was too scared to even think about it. Lol Teresa

	Like Muffy, Virgin Earth - just started it. Have to go for a glucose tolerance test at 8.45 tomorrow morning and was told to bring a book because I'll be there for 2 hours, so hope to read a lot more of it then. Might do my nails too and study my seed catalogues! (No, not my toenails lol!)
