    I let Jip have a review by PM but in general terms I agree with what Gambol said. To be entirely honest I didn't think i was going to like it that much but thought it was cracking.

    I haven't got round to reading it yet. <wah>

    My library books always get priority as they have a return date, and I always borrow more books when I take them back. Looks like I'll have to wait till I'm away on holiday to break the cycle and finally read it.

    Robbing bastards. I should've told them to knock it off my fee for the talk I'm doing there.

    They've known about that since the time I drunkenly refused to leave until I'd read every book in the library :eek:

    He can be so mean which is surprising, you'd think a nine-fingered alcoholic failed writer who ****s the sofa would be more charitable.
