Always enjoy adding a Rachel Bright book to our at home collection. It’s now passing onto Hannah now that Harris is getting older too.

Had the day off today to attend an appointment with my son Harris. So will maybe get a bit more time with this. Have to admit, it’s not grabbed me as much as I’d hoped.

Laidlaw by William McIlvanney.
I thought it was a good quality Scottish crime novel. I liked Laidlaw as a character, someone with a lot of discover about.
It depicted what I'd imagine to be an accurate description of the underworld society.

Hugely important piece of local content. Inspirational and thought-provoking stories and poems. #InternationalWomensDay.
Our colleagues in North Lanarkshire Arts Development Team have been working in partnership with the Aura Voice Group - a group of women with lived experience of domestic violence.
