[Dick Knights Mumm]

Having been to Edinburgh recently I have started reading The Heart of Midlothian by Walter Scott.

Did you know the Heart of Midlothian was a prison ?

I have a feeling I might be doing a cheeky though.

The Night Circus - Erin Morgenstern. So-so.

 

[Hiney]

Just finished Graeme Swann's autobiography. It won't win the Pulitzer Prize but was entertaining.

Also read Paul Lake's autobiography - excellent.

Would you believe Gullhanger by Mike Ward?

It's available for free on the kindle.

What do you mean, cheapskate?

 

[Braders]

Read recently alot of CV and Self Help books , as well as Mike Wards- Gullhanger again on my Kindle

Other then that
*Only Fools and Horses: The Story of Britain's Favourite Comedy by Graham McCann - good but I knew most of it anyways
* Tony Adams : Addicted - not bad , a hell of a struggle and surprised he played as well as he did considering just how much he was drinking at the time
* Ozzy Osbourne : Unauthorised autobiography - surprised he's still about , doesn't do the norm and fair play to him , in a long serving battle with himself
* Margrave Of The Marshes by John Peel, John Ravenscroft, Alexandra Ravenscroft and Florence Ravenscroft - fantastic read, couldn't put it down.

Gullhanger on the Lappy. Bloody awkward reading in bed. Also Micro by Michael Crichton, finished by Richard Preston as Michael was unable to finish it, on account of dying.

Don't do it. Slow down. I brought the 10 or so from Amazon I hadn't read and now because they are such a very good read, I am finding it difficult to get into any thing else.
I shall wait a couple of weeks and start them all again.
