A joyous collection of life lessons from the UK''s favourite vicar! The perfect gift for fans of Kate Bottley and her charm, wit and wisdom.Hello there, come on in. I know what you’re thinking: ‘I’m not religious, so I’m not sure if this is for me’. But the truth is, this book is simply about being human. Believing in something, no matter what it is, gives us hope, and that’s what helps us get through this messy, joyful, unexpected ride we call life. Over the years I’ve sat on plenty of sofas, drunk plenty of (questionable) cups of tea and learned endless lessons from the wonderful people I’ve met. Above all, they have taught me that there is no right way to do things – and that’s OK. In these pages I have shared everything I have learned about how to deal with life’s biggies – like love and death, as well as confidence, conflict and loneliness – in the hope that I can make you feel less alone and arm you with the tools to face the tougher times. Hopefully this book will remind you to pause, appreciate how far you’ve come, savour the precious moments, and enjoy a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

London was still recovering from the devastation of World War II when another disaster hit: for five long days in December 1952, a killer smog held the city firmly in its grip and refused to let go. Day became night, mass transit ground to a halt, criminals roamed the streets, and some 12,000 people died from the poisonous air. But in the chaotic aftermath, another killer was stalking the streets, using the fog as a cloak for his crimes. All across London, women were going missing--poor women, forgotten women. Their disappearances caused little alarm, but each of them had one thing in common: they had the misfortune of meeting a quiet, unassuming man, John Reginald Christie, who invited them back to his decrepit Notting Hill flat during that dark winter. They never left. The eventual arrest of the "Beast of Rillington Place" caused a media frenzy: were there more bodies buried in the walls, under the floorboards, in ...

The Pharmacy is an extended exploration of family, loss, and the indignities of British medical institutions. Building a landscape that is at once influenced by autotheory, life experience of care, and a fervent critique of austerity, this is a fiery second collection from Kat Sinclair.The poems of Kat Sinclair''s The Pharmacy ''cannot write through / as (they) are supposed to'', but struggle to stand, love, grieve, wriggle, spit jokes from within brutal desiccated infrastructures, learning machines, the last things left to be stolen away from us. Where ''the hospital is a factory'', out of the deadness of memeified language and bloodied pop-cultural dreck, these side-eye-lyrics don''t just transcribe addictive assaults on attention but hold to our aftermaths, without healalls.
