Carolyne Larrington, The Norse Myths That Shape The Way We Think

 'Not the book I was expecting, much more about pop culture that normal in these books, and I can't help but think the author was picking things they enjoyed rather than going for a complete overview if the impact of the Norse Myths. Lots about  Game Of Thrones and The Vikings, but to be fair Wagner was in there too. I went for a cycle down to Littlehampton yesterday, through Petworth and Arundel, two of my favourite places. I had to get up and walk up two hills, which were 20%, so i need to find another route with a gap to get to the south coast! The big tent has been taken down as high winds were forecast for this weekend, but Libby is now camped out in our small festival tent which I took to cub camp last weekend. It's very nice, but it's not going to last in inclement conditions. this is the last week of term so the kids are a bit demob happy, will need to keep them busy during the holidays. William and Libby are in clubs for at least some of the time, but Freddie will just mooch around if we are not careful
