Charles Portis, True Grit

 Really enjoyed that, and much more humour and wryness than either film (from what I can remember). Mattie Ross is a wonderful character, and a fine narrator. Kids have gone back to school today after a long half-term. Fred is about to start his mocks and has been applying to colleges for his A levels next year. Libby went to see a Taylor Swift concert at the cinema with her friends at the weekend, it is so sweet how excited she gets and how long they take to pick their costumes. I had to walk 20 metres behind her and not acknowledge her when we dropped her off, of course.
