Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 07/04/2025Thanks. Not on this but I do know her. I’ve been lucky enough to speak to the son of one of the nurses, who was a mindfield of information. 100
Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 07/04/2025Trying to get inside the head of a nurse… One who worked 80 years ago in occupied Guernsey. I’m a nurse too. But her world? Nothing like mine. No electronics. Often no electricity. No dressings. Few medicines. Little food. Just instinct, and decisions no one could train for. 141

Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 25/02/2025I hope so. I live in Guernsey, which is next door. The scenery should be spectacular. 110

Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I’ve just downloaded all my Amazon books onto my Kindle, in case they try to remove them. The good news is I don’t need to buy any more books ever - or is that the bad news? 🧐😳 160

Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 16/02/2025It’s a good job writers never believe what they read or I’d be in search of a bigger hat! Truly amazed by the latest review. Amazed and delighted. ‘A beautiful heart-rending book I wouldn't have missed for the world’. 030
Jenny O’Brien @scribblerjb.bsky.social · 16/02/2025What’s your perfect day? For me it’s a day off, a swim, getting Wordle, someone supplying tea, a lap cat and a book 🤣. Not quite perfect, as too rough to swim. 120
