Q5) Parliament
Oh, yes. There might be some rain later this afternoon/evening, but the chances seem to be slightly below 50%, so we'll have to keep our fingers crossed.
I did catch your review and I left a leeeenghty comment. Sorry about that! (Well, mostly about the mental health angle as I am not following the series, at least the moment).
Perhaps you should do your reviews at some other time, although I am not a good one to talk about getting stuck doing things late in the evening. (In my case, I tend to wait until my mother goes to bed to do things that require more concentration, as I work in the lounge/dining-room, and that's where we tend to spend most of the time when we are at home, as the rooms are pretty small, and mine doesn't have any natural light.

I checked and couldn't find that button. But I can see I need to do something about my storage issues.
You'd think someone trained as a librarian would know better! Oy! :)
