@militaryhistori I've read all the Kerr books. Loved Bernie Gunther. Alas there will be no more.

@militaryhistori I've now finished all 17 Mary Russell and Holmes books. What to read now? Time to dip back in and reread all my Anthony Price. Do these register with military historian's?

@stockotrader Me. Restaurant was great. Interior like a restaurant on Bondi Beach. But Padstow wasn't the sleepy coastal village of my imagination.

@militaryhistori Thanks Peter. I've almost finished the Russell/ Holmes series.

[Neil Urwin @UrwinNeil]

@tempest_books Oh yes! Serious-looking aircraft.
