I can’t believe it is November already! Before we know it it’ll be Christmas. I’m so excited for Brodie’s first Christmas.

WHAT FIONA HAS READ

I read a little more in October than I did September. I made it to 100 books for the year so anything over that is a bonus

• A Quiet Night In – Jill Murphy
• The Haunted Mask (Goosebumps #11) – R.L. Stine
• The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar – Roald Dahl audiobook
• The Railway Children – E. Nesbit

I’ve got a few on the go also:

• Frankie Dupont and the Science Fair Sabotage (Frankie Dupont Mysteries #3) – Julie Anne Grasso
• Club Dead (Sookie Stackhouse #3) – Charlaine Harris audiobook

WHAT FIONA HAS WATCHED

• Still Hollyoaks, Only Connect and Taskmaster this month
• The new series of Red Dwarf 
• More of ER – now we’re up to season five

WHAT FIONA HAS DONE

• Taken Brodie to rhyme time, playgroup and quite a few lunch dates!
• Did my first Baby Sensory class which was a Halloween one, with Brodie dressed as a very cute Darth Vader. He also dressed up as a pumpkin for the Halloween playgroup.
• Started planning my Christmas shopping and bought Brodie some Christmassy outfits which I can’t wait to put him in.
• Went to see Thor: Ragnarok at the cinema (Brodie got left with his gran and grandad for a few hours and everyone had much fun).
• Even more washing but not really any more sleeping than last month

WHAT STEF HAS READ

• Peggy and Me – Miranda Hart
• Five Go Glamping – Liz Tipping reviewed here

And current reads:

• Don’t You Forget About Me – Liz Tipping
• The Mystery of Holly Lane – reviewed here

WHAT STEF HAS WATCHED

• Again with the Taskmaster series, just re-watching and chortling about the tasks.

I haven’t really watched anything else, what a bore, I just seem to have been on the go all the time!

WHAT STEF HAS DONE

• I’m still Thai boxing and trying to get back into my running
• I went on holiday to Tenerife — just a lovely place.
• Working two jobs and generally trying to be busy around the place.

I’ve had a really boring month but it’s all just flown by, so hopefully in the run up to Christmas I’ll be a bit more exciting for you!
