I've just got home from my new god daughters christening, as if lying in church about stuff I don't believe I then had to spend hours watching people eating food I couldn't eat, and to top it off my god daughter is the ugliest baby I ever saw lol
Mr Happy said:Andy, it might seem a silly suggestion but try reading 3 or 4 pages and then seeing what you remember. My eldest son has autism and many people see many of his traits in me, as a youngster I used to read a book a day and barely remember a page as I was reading. Several days later I could virtually recite the book, brains work in mysterious ways.
I've just tried to get my middle child, aged 8 into some classics. He's full of imagination and hyper activity but the books of yesteryear really calm and interest him. Picked up a beautiful hardback 100th anniversary edition of The Railway Children yesterday, £1.50 went to the BHF too - everybody happy!

This is interesting. I used to be a great reader often having 3 or 4 books on the go and keeping track of them all as well as all the reading for my job. I had a breakdown in 2005 [ nothing to do with the reading] and suddenly found it almost impossible to make sense of a paragraph, let alone a book.
Have started reading a bit more now and have been given a Kindle by my daughter. I have managed a couple of short books on this...pretty trashy ones but easy plots....and gradually getting back to a good read. Also joined a book club and have read last months book but now cannot remember what it was about and meeting on tuesday.
THE BRAIN IS A FUNNY THING!!
