Everyone has their favorite way of using the internet. Many of us search to find what we want, click in to a specific website, read what’s available and click out. That’s not necessarily a bad thing because it’s efficient. We learn to tune out things we don’t need and go straight for what’s essential.

See, I complained about coming all the way to Scotland for a year when you were touring for Echo and lookie, you're here! AH! I even had my family ship me your book early from the states so I didn't have to wait till the 7th to get it! :blushes:

On second thought are you even going to be able to make it here? Have you? I mean, the UK decided to shut down their lives for 3 inches of snow, after all.

Fingers crossed I get to see you some time this week! What a coinkidink. I'm in Glasgow but Edinburgh is £10 and 50 minutes away!

I'm soooo excited, just booked 2 tickets for myself and my mum for your lecture at SHU. Not sure what we'll be hearing but I'd be happy to make the 2 hour drive even if you were only going to read the phone book for an hour!

Yes, I'm sure I checked it in my German version.
It's in chapter 61 where Claire gets a book from Jamie and he holds it in front of her nose and she can't read it. So she must be far-sighted as Jamie.
But shortly after Jamie has done that Claire thinks she is nearly as short-sighted as a mole (dunno if that's the phrase you use in the USA for it)(Oh you use blind as a bat,maybe).
Well that doesn't work so good together.
I'm short-sighted and I can read a book that's right in front of my nose. *gg*
Claire and Jamies problem sounds more like my parents.

Dear Julia--

Are you sure? Jamie holds the book closer and closer to Claire's eyes before she can read it. But _he_ needs to hold it farther and farther away before _he_ can see it. (I.e., she's short-sighted, and he's far-sighted.)

I'm in Aberdeen but I'm going to go up to Inverness so I can hear you speak. I missed you at the Culloden Centre opening but I have enough heads-up that I can do this!! I'm so excited

Is there room for me in the suitcase?

Just something that stucks in my head since I read this part of the book.
I dunno if it's just the German translation but Jamie shows Claire that she can't read a book without holding it quite far away from herself. So she is long-sighted and I think in the book it says she is short-sighted what is wrong then.
That's just something I observed and that doesn't seem to go out of my head.
