I would hate f...Well, Penny I'm glad you asked. I would hate for anybody to think that Mrs Readalot is a layabout!<br />Mrs Readalot is a very fast reader for one thing. It comes with all the years of practise.<br />Mrs Readalot prefers reading to watching TV so when she has a book on the go, she gets the kids in bed and then REAAAAADS into the night.<br />Sometimes Mrs Readalot gets to read on weekends when the kids are playing, hubby is home and she is lazing on the daybed outside. That is one of her favourite things.<br />Other times when she can't get to sleep Mrs Readalot will give up counting sheep and take her book into the lounge (so as not to disturb her sleepy husband) and read until her eyelids droop and the book falls out of her hand. Then she will slither back into bed for what remains of the night.<br />On average a good book will take Mrs Readalot 3-4 days to finish, depending on its length and how good it is - i.e. how late she props her eyelids open.<br />However... this is NOT an everynight thing. Otherwise she would be always grumpy in the monring. And THAT we just cannot have, can we???!!

Though am struggling with the fact you didn't know who Jude Law was......he is possibly one of the most beautiful men in all creation! And the only reason why I watched that movie, which left me feeling depressed by the way because after all that he dies.
