    • The Famous Five set me on an adventure.
      • I think my Mum picked up a giant carrier bag of these incredibly exciting books at a car boot sale when I was about four or five; I'd read the whole lot within a couple of days. I wasn't a particularly gifted kid, I just had a family who took the time to read to me from a very early age, and who encouraged me to learn how these 'word' things worked.

        From then onwards, books became my favourite way to escape. I'd read absolutely *anything* I could get my hands on, from newspapers to encyclopaedias and back again.

        Nothing much has changed. I'm even getting fond of reading books on the eye-watering screen of my iPhone in quiet moments at work.

    • I demand a strange twisty thing that goes 'plink'.
      • Bwahaha! I have captured your penguin and am holding it hostage. If you want it released, I'm afraid I'm going to need...


        a strange twisty thing that goes 'plink'.
        Because you're not going to have one of them any time soon, are you now?


        a perfectly preserved gooseberry from 1952.
        Ditto.


        a penguin of my own.
        Then I can give yours back. Hah.
