I finished reading Mary Francis's In a north country village a while ago and after short holdup after the Librivox server migration, it is now online and available for download via the audioboowks page. This was my first dip of the toes into dialect reading and by and large I think I have survived. Right now, though, I am taking a step back and reading Wordsworth's River Duddon sonnets, which is a different kind of challenge as I have never really got the point of Wordsworth. It is fun, nevertheless to read a series of poems that takes you down a river from its source to the sea.

Born in Manchester when it was still part of Lancashire, which it still is really. Exiled in sunny Sydney, I love to read Lancashire books Archives
