        I read a lot of non fiction, best this year has been 'hell's prisoner' by Christopher parnell. About a guy banged up in Indonesia. Sickening and hilarious. Would recommend it highly. Currently reading 'ooh ah stantona' by footballer Phil stant who after serving in the Falklands war went on to become a fairly successful lower league player in the 80's and 90's.
        Nothing to prove

          Novels written by John Hart. He is a good storyteller.
          A very important book to read is the one about the Swedish fireman who did almost lose 100 percent of his skin in job-accident. His name is Robert Gustavson.

                                The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists got quite a good review in our last book club thread.

                                Reading some Richard Dawkins @ the moment myself
