Finally managed to bring my camera on a doggie walking expedition! On a nice night too. Unfortunately I missed a bunch of photo ops - including a great one of a rather beautiful and very aware of it cat sitting in the middle of a wonderfully blooming laburnum tree. And one of our many dog-walking encountered pals - a gorgeous golden retriever who often poses with his head and paws hanging between the railings looking extremely melancholy! Some night perhaps I'll get them all...

(Realised I'd have to resize this again, after going to reply to GB's comment.)

Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] myntti's version 1 of the top 20 for BC, I've thrashed out mine! Again, in no particular order, and with all sorts of different categories of 'favourites' jumbled in together.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Persuasion " "
Northanger Abbey " "
Fire and Hemlock by Diana Wynne Jones
Deep Secret " " "
Howl's Moving Castle " " "
Middlemarch by George Eliot
Lord of the Rings J.R.R. Tolkien (it's a book, not a series!)
Memory, Lois McMaster Bujold
Wizard of Earthsea, Ursula Le Guin
To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis
Passage '' ''
The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner
Eagle of the Ninth, by Rosemary Sutcliff
A Solitary Blue, by Cynthia Voigt
Falcon, by Emma Bull
Dido and Pa by Joan Aiken
The Melandy series, by Elizabeth Enright
Hamlet, Shakespeare
The Wheel of the Infinite, Martha Wells
And then there's Good Omens, Curse of Chalion, The Poisonwood Bible, Bellwether, The Fetch of Mardy Watt (Charles Butler, aka BC's Steepholm) and a few others besides!

Version 1.0 is supposed to have bugs, right?
