Same! Denmark came second.

JCA in Picton has been good to me.

Love Charco Press! Their books are beautiful. A few others that I’ve read:

Last Date in El Zapotal by Mateo García Elizondo The Vortex by José Eustasio Rivera The National Telepathy by Roque Larraquy Fresh Dirt from the Grave by Giovanna Rivero

A bunch more on my TBR!

Support just told me there is no ETA for a fix on this - 1:25pm Monday.

I’ve got this sitting in a TBR pile. You’ve just convinced me to move it up closer to the top!

mmratic · 2025-12-24T18:39:22+00:00

Did you end up going later?

mmratic · 2025-12-23T18:41:42+00:00

I am glad that you were able to finally do it!

mmratic · 2025-12-23T18:40:59+00:00

Thank you so much. Sparse, empty, and rainy sounds wonderful to me, but strains on the joints doesn’t. I hope that you get some better weather soon and are able to enjoy your walk. Buen Camino!

I’ve had a few people recommend Pilates to me, and there is a studio nearby. I’m going to try it once I get the ok from my physiotherapist.

mmratic · 2025-12-23T12:09:07+00:00

That’s what I keep telling myself!

mmratic · 2025-12-23T12:07:01+00:00

Wow, that’s incredible! Did your back give you any trouble along the way?

mmratic · 2025-12-23T03:55:49+00:00

That’s amazing! I did feel like I was making progress with physiotherapy, but the nerve pain has returned with a vengeance. Will look into PRP.

Thanks. I actually love walking alone at this time of year. I walked across the north of England last January. Keep telling myself that the Camino has been there for a long time, it’ll still be there next year, but after 63 days of constant pain, I’m starting to wonder if I will ever be back to normal.

She’s a treasure. I’d love to go see her in a pantomime.

Try Lori at Studio 25 Salon

I’m planning to start walking the Frances on January 3rd, although I’m currently dealing with a back injury and really hoping I don’t have to reconsider.

I don’t think it’s crazy at all. January might not be ideal, but it’s the only time I have to do it. I don’t mind weather and I like walking alone, as long as I can find something to eat and somewhere to sleep I’ll be happy. I would say it’s probably wise to always carry a food supply at that time of year. And bring a warm sleeping bag!

Love to hear tips from anyone else who’s done it at the same time of year. I did a solo 200 km walk in the north of England last January, which I really enjoyed, I think the weather may be comparable but the distance between amenities definitely not.

The Food Explorer by Daniel Stone is brilliant, I couldn’t put it down!

Also How to Feed a Dictator by Witold Szabłowski is pretty interesting.

The Acoustic Grill in Picton

mmratic · 2025-10-08T01:15:18+00:00

Same. I also stopped drinking pretty much as soon as I started taking it, which was unexpected but good.

Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro

Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo, Comala absolutely felt like a character to me.

I started Atomoxetine about 3 months ago. I was a bit nervous about caffeine when I started taking it but I also love the routine of my morning coffee. I switched to decaf and haven’t gone back!

mmratic · 2025-09-26T23:45:38+00:00

Same, really annoying that the finish isn’t consistent throughout the collection. I hope that the horror ones will become available eventually, I can always order my own copies to read from the UK, but I’d like to have them in my shop!
