Turns out the biggest threat isn't the triffids, but the new UK government.

Thanks everyone for your company. I hope my suggestion of Day Of The Triffids was OK. I'm now out on Wednesdays until October/November, but will set up the threads for Children Of The Stones. Vote Og.

I remember bits of that - but very good to see it again. I'm looking forward to Children of the Stones - I remember a lot of very atmospheric supernatural series when I was young, but I don't think I've seen that one. |

That was very good. What happens at the end in the book? It follows them joining the island group, discusses the way they live and how the annual seed hunt would become part of a new folklore. Edited by OneSparePart on 15-03-2023 20:50 Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

That would make sense. How do they get to the island? In the helicopter? I was just wondering that myself. Can't remember but a boat must be involved. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!
