‘The Family Corleone’ by Mario Puzo New York, 1933 - The city and the nation are in the depths of the Great Depression. The crime families of New York have prospered in this time, but with the coming end of Prohibition, a battle is looming that will determine which organisations will rise...and which will face a violent end. For Vito Corleone, nothing is more important than his family’s future. His youngest children, Michael, Fredo, and Connie, are in school, unaware of their father’s true occupation; and his adopted son, Tom Hagen, is a college student; but he worries most about Sonny, his oldest child. Vito pushes Sonny to be a businessman, but Sonny - seventeen years old, impatient, and reckless - wants something else: to follow in his father’s footsteps, and become a part of the real family business. An exhilarating and profound novel of tradition and violence, of loyalty and betrayal, “The Family Corleone” carries on the legacy of “The Godfather” for a new generation. ‘Charlotte Street’ Danny Wallace EIt all starts with a girl ...(because yes, there’s always a girl...) Jason Priestley (not that one) has just seen her. They shared an incredible, brief, fleeting moment of deep possibility, somewhere halfway down Charlotte Street. And then, just like that, she was gone - accidentally leaving him holding her old-fashioned, disposable camera, chock full of undeveloped photos...And now
Jason - ex-teacher, ex-boyfriend, part-time writer and reluctant hero faces a dilemma. Should he try and track The Girl down? What if she’s The One? But that would mean using the only clues he has, which lie untouched in this tatty disposable...It’s funny how things can develop... ‘The Lucky One’ by Nicholas Sparks Is there really such a thing as a good luck charm? Ex-soldier Logan Thibault thinks he just might have found one. Haunted by memories of the friends he lost in Iraq, Logan knows how fortunate he is to be home. He believes that a photograph he carried with him, a picture of a smiling woman he’s never met, kept him safe. Even though he knows nothing about this woman, he hopes she might hold the key to his destiny. Resolving to find her, Logan embarks on a journey of startling discovery. Beth, the woman whose picture he holds, is struggling with problems of her own: her volatile ex-husband won’t accept their relationship is over and threatens anyone who gets too close to her. And, despite a growing attraction between them, Logan has kept one explosive secret from Beth: how he came across her photograph in the first place ...

all the fun of the Strawberry Fayre!
CELEBRITY chef Peter Vaughan will open the Strawberry Fayre at Woodborough Garden Centre on Saturday, June 23 as people from all over the Pewsey Vale celebrate the first picking of the season’s strawberries. Visitors will be able to kick-off the pick your own season and to find out what fresh strawberries straight from the plant really taste like. Peter will declare the fair open at 11am and then demonstrate some tasty recipes from the garden centre’s own produce. There will be plenty of other food to sample and buy as there will be stalls offering everything from cup cakes to chutney. Hobbs House Bakery – made famous by TV’s Fabulous Baker Brothers – will have an array of beautiful loaves to try and buy. There will also be local cheeses, marinades, relishes and local ales. Craft stalls offering clothes, jewellery and gifts will offer and opportunity to buy unusual gifts. There will be a BBQ offering sausages & burgers from their own rare breed pigs and a hog roast, along with the ever popular beer and Pimms tent. A new addition to this year’s fair is a bake-off competition in which members of local WIs and other creative cooks will test their skills at making a Victoria sponge, fruit scones and strawberry jam. Their efforts will be judged by WI expert Sylvia Blacklock. Take time to enjoy a cream tea on the café terrace while the Kennet Vale brass band plays a selection of great tunes. There will be craft workshops for children and adults and if you venture further, to the back of the garden centre you will be rewarded by the chance to meet two of the latest additions to the centre – twin pygmy goats. Other animals likely to be spotted are Kune Kunes Dotty and Lily, Vietnamese pot belly Chops and a selection of pigs and piglets The centre’s farm shop is gaining a reputation for stocking a large array of wonderful produce including gourmet ready meals, cakes, breads, and sauces as well as fruit, vegetables and meat. Two new types of sausages, created from the centre’s own pigs, have just been added to the pork range. The centre’s café will be open to provide drinks and home cooked food throughout the day. Woodborough owner Claire Rourke said: “It should be a great day for all the family. It will be an ideal opportunity for people who have not been to Woodborough recently to see just what we can offer not just in the way of plants but so much else as well.” The fair will be open from 11am to 4pm. For more information about Woodborough go to the website www.woodboroughgardencentre.co.uk You can also sign up for regular e-newsletters which give you special offers and all the latest news.
