But I really prefer to stay close to home for most of the summer holiday, to RELAX and delve into personal goals. Thank you for your kind comments my dear! I look forward to musing and preparing blog posts for the chilly but magical seasons of cold nights, tea-time, good reads and friends.<br /><br />HAPPY SUNDAY!

Goodreads...Hello there,<br />Wow that’s a good question. Goodreads list 665 great dog books, but of course not all the dogs are black. http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/665.Great_Dog_Books<br /><br />The reading bug had a go at picking their favourite books before deciding there were just too many of them, but they do provide a very good list of doggy books. Again not all the dogs are black.<br />http://readingbugblog.wordpress.com/2010/03/30/best-dog-books/#topic1<br /><br />I can think of a couple of famous black dogs in fiction one is the hound of the Baskervilles from the book of the same name by Arthur Conan Doyle. The other is Black Bob the fictional Border Collie that first appeared in The Dandy in 1944. He also featured in a weekly picture strip in a newspaper, and several Black Bob annuals published between 1950 and 1965. I’m sure there are many, many more. <br /><br />I was trying to think of book where a Goldendoodle is the star (thinking of your Little Lulu) but the only one I know features a light coloured Golden. If you are interested in finding it its called Waffles the Goldendoodle and the ISBN number is 9781476281216<br /><br />We are in Somerset about 120 miles from central London, but we don&#39;t have a shop (just mail order) from our website www.marchhousebooks.comBarbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496559191887463909.post-87608397757301629562013-08-17T13:58:04.591+01:002013-08-17T13:58:04.591+01:001.

You would really enjoy the Herbert Art Gallery. There is just so much to see. I agree that Matthew MacFadyen looks the part, but Colin Firth will always be my favourite Mr. Darcy – the lake scene will stay with me always! I&#39;m pretty sure that scene is not even in the book, but it’s such a wonderful moment. <br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496559191887463909.post-17556588090480795092013-08-13T13:27:40.632+01:002013-08-13T13:27:40.632+01:00Very lucky lady in Australia with those wonderful ...Very lucky lady in Australia with those wonderful cards!

So happy that the Mabel Lucie Attwell cards get to stay together, and that you got to keep the 7th. (I imagine selling them separate feels like sending a family of children to different foster homes.) Also, I&#39;d love to visit the Herbert Art Gallery &amp; Museum. Quentin Blake&#39;s works are such joy to pore over! As for Pride and Prejudice, I haven&#39;t read the classic, but have watched the Matthew Macfadyen film version. (This actor really fits into that era, doesn&#39;t he? He made me like &#39;Arthur Clennam&#39; on Little Dorrit even though I hadn&#39;t liked that character much when I read the novel years ago.)

I believe they were named as one of the best independent shops in the UK in 2012!
