    A Night in October: Tales from the Hurricane Coast , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 844min
    This is a story of hurricane survival; a story of the costs and comforts of living on our hurricane coasts. This story of one family's encounter with a storm named Sandy tells of weaknesses and strengths known to all of us, within a setting of beauty and terror, along the Atlantic coast. In this place, where the soul is fed as stoutly as the body on the ocean's riches, and to which people have been drawn for millennia, two worlds collide - one solid and one fluid - one in which people can dwell and one in which we cannot. This collision of worlds, across a changeable, unknowable boundary, holds an attraction that cannot be resisted and sometimes must be escaped. On Monday, October 22, 2012, a weather system in the Caribbean caught the attention of meteorologists as a matter of routine. Its heavy clouds gave scattered showers to splash on the heaving surface of the darkened sea. By the next Monday this storm named Sandy, born on the sands of the Sahara, had traveled over 6000 miles - over ocean and island - to one of the most populous coastlines in the world, and, there, it irrevocably changed the lives of tens of thousands of people. ungekürzt.

    Why Mummy Swears
    The hilarious second novel, and Sunday Times No 1 Bestseller, from author of the smash hit Why Mummy Drinks. Monday, 25 JulyThe first day of the holidays. I suppose it could've been worse. I brightly announced that perhaps it might be a lovely idea to go to a stately home and learn about some history. As soon as we got there I remembered why I don't use the flipping National Trust membership - because National Trust properties are full of very precious and breakable items, and very precious and breakable items don't really mix with children, especially not small boys. Where I had envisaged childish faces glowing with wonder as they took in the treasures of our nation's illustrious past, we instead had me shouting 'Don't touch, DON'T TOUCH, FFS DON'T TOUCH!" while stoutly shod pensioners tutted disapprovingly and drafted angry letters to the Daily Mail in their heads.How many more days of the holiday are there?Welcome to Mummy's world...The Boy Child Peter is connected to his iPad by an umbilical cord, The Girl Child Jane is desperate to make her fortune as an Instagram lifestyle influencer, while Daddy is constantly off on exotic business trips...Mummy's marriage is feeling the strain, her kids are running wild and the house is steadily developing a forest of mould. Only Judgy, the Proud and Noble Terrier, remains loyal as always.Mummy has also found herself a new challenge, working for a hot new tech start-up. But not only is she worrying if, at forty-two, she could actually get up off a bean bag with dignity, she's also somehow (accidentally) rebranded herself as a single party girl who works hard, plays hard and doesn't have to run out when the nanny calls in sick.Can Mummy keep up the facade while keeping her family afloat? Can she really get away with wearing 'comfy trousers' to work? And, more importantly, can she find the time to pour herself a large G+T?Probably effing not.
