Oh dear

Went to visit my mum and her partner today and was waylaid in Blackheath (after a rather fine meal at Il Bertorellis) by my nemesis, book racks on the pavement with a sale sign on. I count myself lucky to escape with just three:

The Summertree by Guy Gavriel Kay
The Wandering Fire by Guy Gavriel Kay
The Drakest Road by Guy Gavriel Kay

(The Fionavar Tapestry trilogy)

They look brand new and I got all three at once so no waiting for other volumes.

My mother also lent me two of her books so I have two weeks to read those before she visits in February.

I got my maternity stuff today from the hospital, apparently a midwife will visit me at home for my first visit which is quite exciting, all very different from the first time in St Andrews. This area seems very pro-home birth, natural birth, breastfeeding and bed-sharing so I am very hopeful this time round. Really hope I get to go to a maternity unit rather than a hospital.
