A few comments and thoughts about crime books set on the mainland of Europe, with titbits about real eurocrime. We hear so much about crime in the USA that many people imagine that Europe is a crime free zone. In crime fiction Europe has become a real challenger to the Americans, but unfortunately real life crime especially in Britain is increasing as well.

Norman - Oh, that's just lovely :-). Thanks for sharing. And yes, I can just imagine Miss Marple...
Margot-If you turn off the main roads running through Somerset, Devon and Dorset, the little villages have thankfully not changed very much from the 1920s. Although food in pubs and restaurants has improved immensely over the years. I must get a job in South West tourism ;o).
Wonderful, especially the second. The church looks tiny, but perhaps it isn´t?
Thanks Dorte.
The church is quite small, but perhaps I should make Miss Marple's village England a regular feature and provide more photos next week. At the moment I am struggling through Henning Mankell's The Troubled Man, which is a little depressing if you are my age.
Although yesterday I was able to walk and climb some very uneven medieval stairs better than since before my accident.
I´d love more Vintage villages :)
And good to hear that you are getting back in shape!
Beautiful photos.
Congratulations on climbing those ancient stairs; that is no small feat.
This is from one person who has hassles with stairs from old bone breaks t0 another. Stairs, especially stone and uneven are real obstacle courses.
