Hallelujah, Christams No1 circa 1742 by the boy George.
-
ha ha, with you on all of those!!
-
Secret History, good call. Very silly, but great fun and well written
-
Anything by Jostein Gaarder. Gaaaaaah (sound of finger forced down throat)
-
Despite hating almost every single word of London Orbital, I loved W.G Sebald's Rings of Saturn which ostensibly treads (no pun intended) similar psychogeographic ramblings territory. However I just found it interesting, enlightening and far far far less self indulgent.

Tunes of the day with a vague political sentiment (even if it's just fuck them and their law) Prodigy - Claustrophobic Sting
-
And an SE5 forum, neither is that in Dulwich....though it's quite Dul.

quality Ant, or how to set yourself up for a fall...that was a seriously long line of coconuts
-
I was perhaps a tad younger, but crucially it wasn't a study book, but just one I picked off the shelf myself.
-
There were only a couple of samples, apparently it's in book form, I think we should have a go; in the meantime:

Are there only about 6 EDFers at work today?

Hurrah, the world no longer feels quite so empty, expecially with the sounds of rabble-rousery filtering in from the pubs in the street below. -
Yep, 1984, one of those books that changed my life. Wonderful, but I can understand that there are patches where the plot, such as it is, doesn't exactly race along. As opposed to 1421, some rubbish conjecture about how a Chinese boat circumnavigated the world, discovered America, invented farming, antibiotics, pasteurisation and split the atom. Hmmm.

spot on, might have a go meself.
-
Blimey, it's going to be deathly over christmas, I'm in every day :(
-
Apologies if I'm the last person in the world to have stumbled across these, but I quite liked them. Venn these tunes.
-
Yep, Real pretty rubbish this season by their standards.

With you on the Hobbit Keef, though I find the LOTR a nice comfort read, mature children's reading that crosses over well to adulthood. Actually thinking about it the Hobbit was boring when I was a kid too. And I found loads of the English classics really turgid, I know it's me rather than they being bad books, but I've given up on most of them in my time. Dickens not included; boy knew how to write a good yarn.

and how did Rhinestone Cowboy cope? Did he blush or did he unwittingly shout "YEE HAAH"?

Are there any nice single Women in East D?

Is that symbol "<3" a mouse or something ruder? -
Don't worry, I still go NNNYYYYOOOWNNN quietly (but audibly) if I overtake people on the pavement.

London Orbital Iain Sinclair. Pretentious twattery with a liberal smattering of namedropping buffoons I'd like to hit with his book. Typical line "Oh freddled gruntbuggley, thy micturations are to me. As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee. Ooh look there's Bill Drummon, walk with me, pleeeeease be my friend."

Spot on Moos, I wanted to hunt him down and kill him half way through London Fields, and realised it would be easier just to throw it away.

Don't be so rude, it was Harry Potter and the Wizard's Slippers Bob!!
-
Mwah hah hah, spot the Harry Potter readers. Sooo predictable. Tried the first one, juuuuuust to see if I was missing out on something, and I really wasn't. Have also revisited the Narnia books Keef, and found that without the glow of nostalgia, they're really not a very satisfying read. (I'm even beginning to think Star Wars is a bit shit) Bah Humbug!! I of course except Winnie the Pooh books from this general rule.....and comics rock.
