Some Bah! BBB results
Bah! BBB latest
I don’t think I’ve got the Bah! BBB quite right yet. I think the idea is sound, but the execution isn’t quite there. I have a mountain of fantastic books from generous authors, publishers and booky people, but I don’t think I’m quite getting the message out. And part of the reason is that the [...]

I’m glad. it was one of those ‘don’t know until you try’ projects, and I tried it, and now I know. Mostly [...]
Talking to Caroline Smailes
I’m very excited that the next BBBB will include a signed copy of ‘Like Bees To Honey’ by Caroline Smailes. (If you haven’t come across this fabulous book, there’s a review of it, by BBBB supporter Lovely Treez, here.)
I’ve never met Caroline (I always happen to be out of town when she is in it) [...]
Another BBBB bonus
The winners of the last BBBB bonus – a copy each of ‘Their Cancer: Your Journey’ by Anne Orchard - are Mason, Debby and Betty. Please email me your addresses and I will get them in the post.
In the week of the Blue Sky Movement, this seems like a good book for a BBBB Bonus.
It’s [...]
It’s over to you, dear reader
The next BBBB is shaping up nicely.
And that’s with a few books still in the post.
I’m still feeling my way with this project, and figuring out ways to make it better. I do now have a BBBB website – it’s not up and running yet, but when it is, you’ll be the first to know [...]

- Mr Whiskers is settling in. He doesn't like the look of the rain I have explained it's the same rain as in London but he doesn't believe me.
- @taniaglyde You're right. And I don't even know how 'top' is defined. Just my 'top of the class' competitiveness coming in to play!
- I have gone from 5th to 8th to 14th top UK health blogger according @Wikio. It's good I don't take any notice of these things. *sulks*
