Good morning Matt.
I've never been able to get into Masterton, should I persevere?
Hope you are well.

Hello, all good here, thanks - considering. All good with you?

Masterton's a bit like Herbert - hit and miss, very cheesy. Easy brain-off reading for me, but not for everybody I suppose.
Reading a lot of 70s and 80s stuff lately, inspired by PaperbacksFromHell

Never any middle ground with herbert, either great or awful. Maybe I will continue to steer clear of masterton.
All well here currently.
Furloughed for coming up 2 weeks.
Reading more books than I have in years
