I'm back! I hope you've had a fun summer.  I'm launching this term with a fun book, perfect for your friends for Christmas. It's snippets of overheard conversations to make you titter, raise your eyebrows, question yourself and/or the quotee. How would you respond to this one?  "Why does everyone suddenly need a second screen? It's a post-Covid thing...You know, we're not all operating air traffic control from home!" Open to conjecture on that one.  We also chat about the anxious side of early motherhood and how Natasha coped. Snippets of conversation from Emphatic Middle-Class Women, by Natasha May can be found at Waterstones.com, Amazon and for a signed copy, message Natasha.t.may on Instagram.

They are excellent researchers and often good problem solvers. They are naturally curious and have a thirst for knowledge. They can often see connections and patterns that others miss. They’re fabulous in a pub quiz, though sometimes their knowledge is specialised, so then they’re just fabulous in certain rounds.   See if you recognise yourself, your child or your friends or partner...         Introspective Analytical Curious Independent Thoughtful Reserved Cerebral Detached Perceptive Objective Focused Reclusive
