Sisters Cleo and Robyn may be close in age but their attitudes to life could not be further apart. While Cleo's a fully-fledged adult with a family, a business and a signature scent, Robyn is still waiting for the instruction manual to Adult Life and success is keeping her houseplant alive. Skating by at her job as an estate agent, she's adept at avoiding housework, ignoring admin, and evading her mother's anxious questions about her love life. But then Robyn's fired in the most publicly humiliating way imaginable - and her chaos catches up with her.
Although Cleo steps in to give Robyn a temporary job in her cleaning firm, it comes with very firm instructions: Robyn must BEHAVE RESPONSIBLY. And that includes meeting the high standards of Jim, her enigmatic supervisor. But when Robyn learns to navigate the catastrophic kitchens and judgemental dogs of total strangers she learns some unexpected truths about her own messy world. No one's life is spotless...
Is it time - finally - for everyone to stop sweeping their secrets under the carpet?

This booklet of Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 Explorer maps shows the
northern part of the route between Minehead and St Ives, providing
all the mapping you need to walk the trail in either direction. It
is conveniently sized for slipping into a jacket pocket or top of a
rucksack. Two separate map booklets cover the route from St Ives to
Plymouth and from Plymouth to Poole. The map booklets accompany the
Cicerone guidebook The South West Coast Path, which describes the
full National Trail in 45 stages, with lots of other practical
information and local points of interest. The South West Coast Path
is Britain's longest National Trail, stretching some 630 miles
(1014km) between Minehead in Somerset and Poole in Dorset.
Guidebook to the Cleveland Way and Yorkshire Wolds Way National
Trails, plus the Tabular Hills Walk link route. The guidebook also
contains a 1:25,000 scale OS route map booklet of the Cleveland
Way. The Cleveland Way National Trail, described in seven day
stages, is a fine 177km (110 miles) walk around the North York
Moors National Park from Helmsley to Filey. The Yorkshire Wolds Way
is one of the quietest of Britain's National Trails and wanders for
130km (80 miles) through gentle, cultivated and sparsely populated
countryside. Described here in nine day stages, from Hessle near
Hull to Filey, it links end-to-end with the Cleveland Way on the
coast. Also described is the three-day, 80km (50 mile) Tabular
Hills Walk, a Regional Trail that allows walkers to close the loop
of the Cleveland Way and transform it into an enormous circular
walk. The guidebook comes with a separate map booklet of 1:25,000
scale OS maps showing the full route of the Cleveland Way. The
clear step-by-step route description links together with the map
booklet at each stage along the Way, and the compact format is
conveniently sized for slipping into a jacket pocket or the top of
a rucksack.
How do you lead a fulfilling life? That profound question animates
this book of inspiration and insight from world-class business
strategist and bestselling author of The Innovator's Dilemma,
Clayton Christensen. After beating a heart attack, advanced-stage
cancer and a stroke in three successive years, the world-renowned
innovation expert and author of one of the best selling and most
influential business books of all time - The Innovator's Dilemma -
Clayton M. Christensen delivered a short but powerful speech to the
Harvard Business School graduating class. He presented a set of
personal guidelines that have helped him find meaning and happiness
in his life - a challenge even the brightest and most motivated of
students find daunting. Akin to The Last Lecture in its revelatory
perspective following life-altering events, that speech
subsequently became a hugely popular article in the Harvard
Business Review and is now a groundbreaking book, putting forth a
series of questions and models for success that have long been
applied in the world of business, but also can be used to find
cogent answers to pressing life questions: How can I be sure that
I'll find satisfaction in my career? How can I be sure that my
relationships with my spouse, my family and my close friends become
enduring sources of happiness? How can I avoid compromising my
integrity (and stay out of jail)? How Will You Measure Your Life?
is a highly original, surprising book from a singular business
figure. It's a book sure to inspire and educate readers - companies
and individuals, students of business, mid-career professionals,
and even parents - the world over.
Triple bill of crime dramas. In 'Bad Karma' (2012), starring Ray
Liotta and Dominic Purcell, a criminal's attempts to go straight
are sabotaged by his former partner. Relocating from Sydney to the
Gold Coast to start afresh, Molloy (Liotta) is remarkably
successful and even finds something approaching domestic bliss with
a new girlfriend. Naturally, when his old crime partner Mack
(Purcell) tracks him down he finds that Molloy is reluctant to
return to his past life. Unfortunately, this doesn't deter the
increasingly deranged Mack as he sets about convincing Molloy to
help him pull off one last job. In 'The Entitled' (2011) social
misfit Paul (Kevin Zegers) is driven to desperate measures when he
is turned down for yet another job and his ill mother is given a
foreclosure notice on the family home. He enlists the help of two
friends to abduct three kids from rich families and hold them
ransom for a million dollars each, but the plan goes badly wrong
and they soon find themselves in way over their heads. 'Officer
Down' (2012) follows Detective David Callahan (Stephen Dorff),
known as 'Cal' on the force, who has had a mixed career as a police
officer, struggling with drink problems and straying to the wrong
side of the law himself at times. When he finds himself caught up
in a murder investigation, Cal must attempt to overcome the demons
from his own past as well as the challenges of the case.

team to take on the daunting challenge of seizing it from its high
security location. Will Calhoun achieve immortality at last?

This guidebook describes 44 walks on the popular and accessible
Isle of Arran. The routes are between 3 and 19 miles (5-31km) in
length, ranging in difficulty from easy, waymarked forest trails to
more arduous mountain walks, exposed ridge routes and scrambles.
The book includes both linear and circular walks, and there are
opportunities to link routes together and create longer walks
across the length and breadth of the island. Also included is a
summary of the 110km Arran Coastal Way. Highlights include
Goatfell, Beinn Nuis, Beinn Tarsuinn, the Sannox Horseshoe, Glen
Rosa, the Cock of Arran and nearby Holy Isle. All the routes are
clearly described and illustrated with OS 1:50,000 mapping, with
extra notes revealing the archaeology, history and natural wonders
of the island. The guide includes background information on travel
to Arran, public transport, and a Gaelic/English glossary. There's

Often described as 'Scotland in miniature', Arran boasts a rich
variety of landscapes, with mountains, coast, moorland and forest,
and the walks have been chosen to showcase this diversity. For an
island, travel to and from Arran is remarkably easy: it is not far
from Glasgow, from where onward connections are swift and frequent.
This guide describes 25 walks on the Channel Islands of Guernsey,
Alderney, Sark and Herm. From easy 5km (3-mile) day walks to the
61km (38-mile), 3-day Guernsey Coastal Walk, it explores the
islands' varied landscapes and historic sites on mostly firm and
well-surfaced paths and tracks, and quiet roads. Never straying far
from the attractions and cafes that dot the islands, more rugged
paths are occasionally used to access cliffs and headlands,
although optional alternative routes and short cuts are included
where relevant. Famous for its sunshine, history and wonderful
coastline, Guernsey is a popular destination for travellers,
boasting superb year-round walking no further than 2 miles from the
sea. This guidebook presents a range of mostly circular routes
exploring the Guernsey coast and interior, and the smaller islands
of Alderney, Sark and Herm. Neighbouring walks can easily be
combined into longer routes for walkers with more time or fitness.
Routes feature 1:15,000 States of Guernsey maps, while flora and
fauna and the fascinating history of the islands are also covered.
Details are included of public transport, where to stay and how to
travel between the islands, as well as connecting with the 182km
(113-mile) Channel Island Way.
