Posted on Thu, 02 Oct 2025
Hi Jenny, I do remember some of these details from your previous writings and how you and your baby rode the storm and lived in survival mode for a few years. It's incredible what we can endure although I found being a new mum very anxiety...

Ha ha. Tom Thumb is much more
Posted on Sat, 27 Sep 2025

I really enjoyed this. At first it made me think of Nuts In May and the way you described the heat and the children playing is very atmospheric. The mad man, incongruously dressed for the heat but turns out he was preparing for what was coming....
