I'm currently reading 'The Lasting Honour' by Oliver Lindsay, which is an account of the Fall of Hong Kong in 1941. Very interesting. As The Telegraph review put it: "....does full justice to those who fought to the end to stave off inevitable defeat"

Nemesis:
A very old Spiller's Dog Book.
( One forgets the finer details of puppy rearing after nearly 13 years !)

My last two books were. "Start the Car" by David Lloyd, Cricket commentator.( I've been a Lancashire (sorry Fester!) cricket club member for as long as I can remember). "My Sh*te Life So Far" by Frankie Boyle - very similar in style to his live act and equally as rude and non pc. Currently "Journey" by Tony Blair - very slow going but one of those books I felt I should read to try and understand how he got where he was and why he made some of the decisions he did.

Does it give any insight as to WHY Mr Blair converted to Catholicism? I've always wondered about that.
As for me, I think I have read 2 books in the last 29 years, I have no attention span whatsoever, and I would much rather watch anything of interest on the TV instead. This isn't a thread for me.
