A thorny problem solved…
We can probably all agree that nothing is better on a cold winter’s night than an armchair, a good book and an open fire. (Well perhaps not all of us, but this is my blog and what I say goes.) There is one obvious problem, however. I can spend many a happy hour staring at flames, perhaps occasionally rising to prod at them with a poker. I also enjoy reading, and will remain contentedly immersed in a good book for lengthy periods. But obviously my eyes can only look at one thing at a time. How can I simultaneously indulge both my pyromania and my love of reading, I hear you ask? Audio books! Stephen Fry reads ‘Harry Potter’ far better than I ever could anyway…
