…to Vienna, we spent each night admiring this…
…heavenly view on the ceiling above us
before lights out.

Book Review-No-Middle-Name
No Middle Name
(Jack Reacher #21.5)
by
Lee Child
No Middle Name is another book which has been sitting on my iPod for some time. So long in fact that if I knew it was a series of short stories I had forgotten.
I am not a fan of short stories and this was not an exception. The only good thing about it was the first few stories focussed on the Reacher boys and provided me with, again perhaps forgotten background information, regarding their army careers.
In my biased opinion, No Middle Name commences well with one or two good stories. However, from there on each story seemed to become shorter and less interesting until a twenty-minute track contained a beginning, middle and ending…of sorts. In fact the second last story lasted a whisker over six minutes and thirty seconds.
Three stars is my best rating for short stories.

My image is that of
Australian currency…
…however, in the past anything
could have been used as ‘money’
as long as all parties agreed on value.

As both our new pups have now….
…passed their third birthday,
we are seeing less of this,
and…
…more of this.
For three years we would just get Taji
out of a bad habit/behaviour.
As Candi is about three months younger,
the respite was brief lived,
before she would be doing exactly
the same thing that Taji had been.
Honestly, it was like tag team wrestling.

People…
…who need people…
If only the iPad operators, in our group
stood this far back from the crowd,
instead of in front.
Will always remember these
two young ladies from Amsterdam.
After asking would they mind posing,
the girl on the left hit me for 5 Euro,
and kept straight face long enough
for mine to express the shock I felt,
before she burst out laughing.
The villains 🙂
Mostly we have met…
