So many books, so little time.

Just read this as well. I don't normally like reading autobiographies/biographies but really enjoyed reading this.

Yeah, it was pretty amusing. A real page-turner comedy-wise. I would have liked to know more about the early F&S sketches and how they learned the craft, but Saunders' memories from the 80's were pretty hazy 
Well at least, it's a good excuse to put Dear Fatty by Dawn French on the reading list.
Tropic of Ruislip by Leaslie Thomas.
Interesting to read it 40 years on.
Lots of un-PC bits in it that you wouldn't dream of writing today.
John Masefield's The Midnight Folk, for the hundredth time.
Swallows and Amazons. Fat Vicky has just had her birthday party.
We seem to be similarly retarded, Marc.
Lol. It's like a holiday in a book 
Currently reading Necropolis which is about old burial sites in London. I am trying to read one book a month but am failing miserably at this. I used to love reading and could read a chapter book in less than a week, but these days time and lack of motivation seem to get in the way a bit.
Just finished reading Tropic of Ruislip which has helped me greatly with my project.
'The Killing Season' - Mason Cross. Gripping read about an escaped serial killer. New writer who was headhunted by an agent after he put something up on authorius (or whatever the website's called).
Going back to my old Leslie Thomas books.
Have just finished Tropic of Ruislip and now re-reading His Lordship about an ex-Tennis pro becoming a tennis coach at a private girls school. Remember this was written in 1970.
