This again, been years since ive read it

Is three quotes too many? I liked it that much.

To be fair to ali his role as Director of Public Relations forces that shit onto him. To be unfair to ali he probably suggested they create that role.

Im delighted that someone liked one of my posts that much. I felt the same way about PTCHs' post comparing and contrasting ray mears and bear grylls. Even though I like Bear Grylls and he was savagely critical of him I knew he was joking. My Dad pissed me off over christmas being very dismissive about that program Grylls did with Stephen Fry dragging him round some icy mountains and absailing and stuff in the italian Dolomites.

The celeberities Grylls has on these shows do wonders for my self esteem they really are completely clueless useless wooses when it comes to outdoors stuff and it makes me feel good knowing that I'd at least be better at that stuff than them. But my Dad was like "WHO is Bear Grylls, is THAT ALL HE DOES ?" WTF, IS THAT ALL, yeah knowing how to survive outdoors in all environments and conquering Everest and making interesting TV programs about it is nothing. :\
 
But did yer check out Bruce Parry as suggested too? ..... He's Mr Psyche and Survival .... he's into the human stuff .. you'll love him, he'll make yer feel good just watching how awesome his attitude is
 
I forgot. I'll type his name into my TV search thingie and see if anything comes up. It might have to wait until February, when i enlarge my package, :\ , for the sake of getting the next bit of The Walking Dead on Fox HD.

Im trying to re-listen to Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt on Audio book as well as keeping going with Cabal. In Cabal, Boone has arrived at Midian now. It's genunely getting quite exciting, wondering wtf it's all about. I've got a feeling there's going to be a pact with Satan or something soon. So far Ive gathered that it seems to be about a psycopathic murderer who is disconnected from his actions, and cannot recall the crimes he seems to have comitted.

Angela's Ashes is so good, a tale of growing up in desperately squalid conditions, the inside of their house was coated in damp 6 months a year, and downstairs was flooded by raw sewrage every winter, they had to burn their own furniture and structural timbers of the house to keep warm. Frank escaped all this by emigrating to America and working very hard.

The only annoying thing is that each mp3 segment is about an hour long, and there's no way of pausing the mp3 player halfway through a segment, and i invariably fall asleep at some point during the first segment, and have listened to the opening parts about 10 times now. :X I'll set the thing playing for 10 - 20 minutes or something tonight, so's I can listen to a different part of it for a change.

Yeah, and then realised it amounted to making 3 quotes a year and he had nowt to do, so got the Administrator title put back on his nick as well ...

i know that was sarcasm. But the people at the lower tiers in any corporation often feel that the higher up other poeople go in the organisation the less work they do. Im not saying that applies to you, but it certainly did in my last work place. People earning 3 times more would swan in around 10.30 surf the internet or walk round the building finding people to chat to, until theyd swan off home around 3pm or something.
 
I really don't know what to think about this guy, his antics and what he writes, but I do find his writing very entertaining :)

Bang Poland said:
Polish girls have thin, svelte bodies with slender, well-defined arms. Even tall Polish girls retain their thinness. A chubby Polish girl, which you’ll find more of in Krakow, would be considered “normal” in the United States. I’m confident that most American girls would hate on Polish girls by calling them anorexic and “all skin and bones.”
To understand why Polish girls are thin, all I have to tell you is that I had many dates that lasted over twelve hours where the girl didn’t eat a single bite of food. While in the States a girl abstaining from food would be a case of her trying to pretend she’s not a hog, in Poland they really don’t care much for eating. The average Polish girl eats two meals a day, with one of those meals resembling a snack. That discovery led me to the conclusion that eating too much food is the main cause of weight gain.
The irony of a culture of thin women is that the Polish girls who stand out most are the fat ones. In the States there would be a long line of desperate dudes going after the fatties, but in Poland the fat girls are resigned to banging bottom-of-the-barrel drunk dudes who want to grind up on their meatiness. They get so little love that I almost felt sorry for them, especially since they don’t have the fattitude common among American fatties.
When it comes to a Polish girl’s body, I get a lot of emails from guys asking, “Is it true that Polish girls have big titties, like in porn?” Yes, it’s true. The biggest set of udders I’ve ever had in my life was on a Polish girl with E-cup hooters. Big breasts were a pure joy to play with when girls had a thin frame, which Polish girls commonly had. Even petite girls only five feet tall have C-cup breasts. If you landed a Polish girl with breasts smaller than a large B, you’re doing something very wrong.
In the States, if you want a girl with big breasts, you’ll probably be landing a fattie, since that’s what it takes to have big boobs there (if you want them to be real). Since big breasts and fatties go hand in hand, one of the reasons I’ve always been an ass man is that I didn’t like fat girls. But after suckling on so many spectacular Polish breasts attached to amazingly thin bodies, I started giving boobs higher value. I was born an ass man and will die an ass man, but after Poland I definitely give more attention to knockers than before.
Polish asses are respectable, but nothing to write home about. They’re inferior to Brazilian, Colombian, and Argentine asses, but you’ll be periodically surprised. Understand that European men prefer breasts over ass, so a lot of big-bootied Polish women try to hide their bubbles. It was common for a Polish girl with a huge ass to be embarrassed when I complimented her on it.
Polish girls with huge asses are more insecure about their bodies, meaning they’ll fall prey to a man who offers a compliment about what they consider to be their biggest flaw. This could be selection bias talking, but for me the bigger the ass, the easier it was for me to get the girl in bed.
It’s common to hear a man say it’s hard for a girl to have both a great ass and huge breasts, but that means he’s never been to Poland. Many Polish girls I defiled had both, something I didn’t get to experience regularly in other countries (in Latin America, girls had big booties but small breasts). Pound for pound, Polish girls’ bodies were the best I’ve seen.
If their bodies are as great as I claim, you know something has to give. That something is the face. Polish girls have big noses, wide cheekbones, sharp chins, and angular faces. Some girls even look like witches when they put on too make eye makeup.
Their one defining feature is a big nose. Growing up, I was surrounded by people with big noses (my parents come from Iran and Turkey), so I actually prefer bigger-than-average noses. I think it gives more character to a face, but I know this preference isn’t universal. If the face is more important to you than body, you won’t care much for Polish girls.
With great bodies and so-so faces, I want you to imagine a land with tons of girls rated in the 6 and 7 range, but very few above that. You may go long periods without seeing an 8 or 9, but either her face or body will be excellent. It’s rare that both will be poor. Therefore, after a couple drinks in the club, about 80% of the girls you see will be bangable.
For some guys a butterface is a deal breaker, but for others it’s not. For me, it became an annoyance after a couple months because I wanted the entire package but had trouble finding it. Unless you’re banging girls right now with flawless faces, you probably won’t even notice the butterface problem in Poland, especially if you’re only staying for a short time. There are so many fuckable chicks that I’m sure you’ll be pleased with the level of talent, but if you have high standards, Poland isn’t for you.
A Polish girl’s style can best be described as “girl next door who likes wearing heels.” While their outfits don’t show much in the way of skin or cleavage (even in the summer), they aren’t shy about revealing the shape of their figures. In other words, they don’t dress like sluts. You won’t see Polish women wearing micro-miniskirts or tiny tops with their boobs sticking out. If they do wear a short skirt, they’ll wear leggings.
Their conservative style is countered by a love of high heels. They wear them so often, even during the day, that seeing bandages covering the back of their feet is common. I must say there’s nothing like hearing the nonstop clip-clop of women’s heels in the afternoon. God bless them for sacrificing their foot comfort in the name of looking good.
Their style is definitely not sloppy like what I’ve seen in America or Denmark, especially the homeless bag lady style of Danish chicks. Even slightly alternative Polish girls look decent, passing up dirty Converse shoes in favor of respectable flats. Women should look like women, and in Poland they definitely do.
Their style hints at a respectable woman with a naughty side lurking within, waiting for the right foreign man to unleash her primal sexuality. They do have a hint of sexiness, but you don’t look a Polish girl in a club and think, “Damn, that girl is sexy as fuck” like you would a Brazilian girl.
A surprising feature of Polish women is the large range of appearance. You have blonde beauties with blue eyes on one end and slightly olive-skinned girls with black hair on the other, and then everything in between. Besides the bigger noses and breasts, there is no one true stereotype, meaning you should find what you’re looking for assuming you like white chicks. Some nights I went for blondes and other nights I went for brunettes. Some nights I went for petite girls and on others I was hollering at girls who would make great basketball players. I never got bored in Poland because of the variety. It made me feel like I was shopping for pussy.
Oftentimes I just stood still in a club waiting for a girl to pass by that fit my exact specifications. I went through a checklist of Polish girls left to bang. Brunette with huge ass—check. Petite brunette with curly hair—check. Redhead with fire crotch—check. Big titty blonde—check. Tall and skinny brunette—check. And so on. Poland is like a conveyor belt of varied pussy where you can wait for your ideal type to swing by. It’s not like in the States where you feel compelled to hit on any cute girl because it may be awhile until you see another one.
I mentioned earlier that a lot of Polish girls are in the 6 and 7 range. This can become a problem because you’ll be talking to a 6 in a club and then a slightly better 7 will give you a positive vibe. In Poland you’ll always have the feeling that you can do better, questioning if you should commit to a girl when cuter chicks are circling around. I’m a firm believer than one in the hand is worth two in the bush. Take the 6 home if she’s willing, fuck her brains out, then go back to the club next time and see what else you can pull.
Poland is a place where you go out and have a good time with cute chicks, not where you fly in with high standards. What I did during my first two months was date a 7 that I gave much of my free time to while fucking anything on the side that gave me a boner. It was a nice compromise between quality and quantity that didn’t have me worrying if I could “do better.” Happiness in Poland is finding a 7 who treats you well and then creeping around if you still need more sex.


Personality & Vibe

It only gets better when it comes to a Polish girl’s personality. Except for a couple minor flaws, she’s the most pleasant to deal with out of any other foreign woman I’ve been with. She has so many positive qualities that it’s best to describe them in list form.
Sweet, gentle, and considerate. Even when a Polish girl rejects you, she’s sweeter than an American girl who fucks you. If a Polish girl hates the drunk guy trying to approach her, she still treats him with respect by letting him down easy, especially when not in a snobby club. Since her nature is not to be mean, she’ll give light rejections that don’t even feel like rejections. Polish women don’t get validation in rejecting men. They won’t bust your balls just for the sake of busting your balls and they won’t insult you if you happen to utter a bad joke.
Nurturing. A Polish girl gets pleasure if you’re experiencing pleasure, similar to the vibe of Brazilian women. It may not come early in the relationship, but don’t be surprised if down the line she does things to show that she wants to take care of you. I loved it whenever a Polish girl would insist on cleaning my house, offering to cook for me, or making genuine offers to take care of me when I was sick. Trust me when I say that it never got old. The result of that nurturing trait is that it becomes obvious she’d make a great mother. I dated a couple Polish girls that made me think, “If I were to have a kid, I’d want to have it with her.” That thought has never occurred to me when dating in the United States. Polish women made me want to be a provider—a strong man who could maintain a home and take care of her financially.
Feminine. They look and act like women—end of discussion. Not counting a tiny minority of hipsters, Polish girls want to look their best at all times to be more attractive to the opposite sex. If it wasn’t for the American girls I ran into in Poland, Polish girls would have made me forget what it’s like to deal with masculine women.
Intelligent. Education is important to Polish women, but they don’t let it ruin their feminine allure. I met Polish lawyers who were in the 99th percentile of femininity. Polish women prove that it’s possible for a woman to be both intelligent and feminine, and that the two terms aren’t mutually exclusive like I thought when living in Washington DC. If a Polish girl gently rebuffs your date suggestion by saying she’s busy with school, she’s probably being truthful instead of blowing you off. She takes her education very seriously.
Funny. They have a surprisingly sharp sense of humor, with a grasp of sarcasm that is comparable to American girls. I was warned before my arrival that I’d have to tone down my humor because Polish girls wouldn’t get it, but if anything it was the opposite. I could dial it up from what it was in Iceland and Denmark. I was surprised that my American-style humor transferred so well until I discovered that they love American movies and television. The funniest girl I ever dated was Polish, even though her English wasn’t that great. If she had been more fluent in English and could have expressed herself fully, the title of this book might have been Marry Poland.
No drama. The biggest fight I had with a girl in Poland, if you want to call it that, was when she refused to suck my dick while she was on her period. That argument lasted two minutes. The girls are so easygoing that I don’t even know how a throw-stuff-across-the-room type of fight could occur. I’ve been brainwashed to believe that there has to be tension and petty fights to keep a relationship interesting, and while that may be the case for some, I was more than content with smooth sailing and consistent sex.
No games. The girls have no idea how to play the game. They don’t know how to lead you on, trick you, or use you. Correction: they probably know how to do those things with simpleton Polish guys, but if you’re moderately experienced in the game you’ll be able to read a Polish girl’s intentions from a mile away. It was almost like having the answers to a test before showing up to take it. Her lack of game means she’ll be more forgiving of your bad game. A mistake that would cost you the opportunity to sleep with an American girl won’t even be noticed by a Polish girl. Toward the end of my stay I was spitting only 50% game, even wining and dining a girl who still rewarded me with raw dog sex on demand.
Monogamous. Girls are happier sleeping with one guy than playing the field. They have no desire to lead a Sex and the City existence. Once you get her in bed, no matter how quickly, you can most likely enter a relationship with her if you wish. It can be debated whether a Polish girl sleeps with a lot of guys during her lifetime (I doubt it), but I’m certain it’s sequential, one at a time, instead of dipping her pen in many simultaneous inkwells. Polish girls are also much more resistant to cheating than Western girls, even if they’re ready to break up with a boyfriend.
Horny. Polish girls look and act wholesome, but good lord do they love sex. My manhood usually tired out other women by the second or third go around, but Polish girls wanted much more than I was able to provide. They wanted the dick inside them for as long as possible, not satisfied with only one fuck per night, which is all that Polish guys seem to muster. I told one girl that she had a pussy made of steel, and she took it as a compliment.
Insecure and self-conscious. Polish girls don’t want you to see them when their hair and face aren’t done up. There were three girls I dated somewhat long-term, and I saw none of them without makeup. It’s possible they were ugly without it, but I had no chance of finding out because they always looked pretty for me. Even if a girl was coming over just to fuck, she’d still look like she was ready for the club (having a girl come over for a booty call in heels was a first for me). Polish girls care deeply about what you think of their appearance, no matter how long you’ve been dating.
Family values. Polish girls have strong relationships with their mothers. Only in Poland did I see mothers and daughters walking hand-in-hand in malls while eating ice cream or talking. I even saw them shopping at grocery stores together, and that was in cities, not little villages. I rarely saw such a sight in Western countries, and when I did, the daughter would treat her mother like an annoyance instead of a queen. I have a suspicion that this strong maternal love is why Polish women are so nurturing—they simply learn it from Mom. For this reason, I think they’d make excellent mothers. Before Poland I had abandoned all hope of being a father, even considering a vasectomy, but now I think I’ll leave it on the table since I know they’d do a bang-up job raising my hairy spawn.
There are also two downsides to Polish girls that are worth discussing…
Not too affectionate. Besides handholding, Polish girls are shy about being affectionate in public. She’s not ashamed to touch you, but she won’t exactly go out of her way to make you feel like the most important man in the world. Their ability to be verbally affectionate is even worse. While a Brazilian girl will tell you “I like you” after just fifteen minutes, a Polish girl may take a couple weeks. She’s not confident sharing her emotions because of being raised in a culture that doesn’t encourage that type of display. I have to admit that Poland was a country where it was harder to develop a strong emotional connection than in Latin America.
Not too sexy. While Polish girls are ultra-feminine, they prefer hiding their bits. You won’t be biting your knuckles at the sight of a Polish girl wearing a stripper-inspired outfit with her boobs hanging out of her shirt. They know how to dance, flirt, and be charming, but their general behavior isn’t a cause for instant boners. “Wholesome” is a word you’ll often hear when their general appearance is being described.
If it wasn’t for those two issues and the butterface problem, Poland would be just about perfect. The lack of girls above 7 will pick at you, especially if you happen to be looking for that “end game” girl. To better illustrate what I mean, even though I banged more than twice as many girls in Poland as I did in the same time period the previous year outside of Poland, in both periods I banged the same number of girls I’d classify at 7 or above. Nonetheless, Polish girls were a joy to spend time with.


Types Of Polish Girls

There are three types of Polish girls: college students, invisible twenty-somethings, and cougars.
College girls will probably be your greatest source of bangs. They are 20–23, speak English, are intensely curious about Americans, possess game that’s easy to decipher, and are more impressed by accomplishments that older women would glaze over. They can be flakey at times but nowhere near the level of Latin American girls (especially Colombians). They’re also going through their “slut stage” of sexual exploration, since it’s the first time they’ve been away from their Catholic homes.
Don’t worry if you’re an older guy. While an American college student may balk at dating an older man, Polish girls actually prefer older men over fellow male students. At 32, I never once had to lie to a Polish girl about my age (and the youngest I slept with was 19). They thought I was acting silly for even bringing up the age discrepancy.
The best time to meet college girls is during the week, because they sometimes go home on weekends to visit their parents. Every major city has clubs that promote “Ladies Nights” where girls can drink for free before 11:00 or so. These events are frequented by college girls who are on a tight budget. The most success I had was at a club in Poznan with a ladies night on Wednesdays. I banged about ten girls from there.
The main problem with college girls is that they’re busy with school. They take it more seriously than their American counterparts, who seem to pick an easy major in order to drink and fuck as much as they can. It may take a while from the time you get a Polish girl’s number until you’re able to get her out on date, but once you do, it shouldn’t take more than two or three dates to seal the deal, assuming you didn’t get a one-night stand.
The next type of Polish girl is the invisible twenty-something, from 24 on up. She’s confident, more independent, and better traveled, making it easier to connect with her than with a college student. These girls will be a little more skeptical of your intentions, but they’ll still be curious about you. They’re also more affectionate and comfortable around men, without a lot of the bitterness I see in American girls of the same age. I think the reason is that their failures in love come from two or three bad relationships instead of being pumped and dumped by a couple dozen men. They still maintain their Polish sweetness.
I call these girls invisible because they can be hard to find, especially in college towns. Once a Polish girl hits 25, she’s either busy with her career or starting a family. They stop going out regularly, as if they’ve passed that stage of their lives. If they do go out it will be on the weekend, since they have jobs during the week.
The invisibles are more likely to be looking for long-term relationships, partly because if you’re a Polish woman still unmarried by 30, you’re considered a failure as a woman. They take only marginally longer to get into bed than college students, though it’s common to catch them in a horny state where they haven’t been laid in months. These girls love breaking sexless streaks with foreign men, since no one will find out. I don’t think Polish girls count the foreign cocks they’ve had when tallying up their notch counts.
The last type of Polish girl is the cougar. She’ll be at least 30, still looking nice and thin, but well past her peak. Lower tier cougars hang out at cheesy clubs that play 80s music, while the upper tier hangs out at the hottest clubs in the city with table service. I don’t want to say upper tier cougars are desperate, but if you catch them when they’re not with someone they’ll be very open to your approach, as long as you come across as mature and not poor. I saw ugly old guys approach them and get much farther than I would have predicted based on their appearance alone.
If you want to chase cougars, the best time to do it is during the day at a mall. A lot of them walk around without getting any attention from guys. You’ll be surprised how friendly they can be, but then again Polish girls are generally friendly across the board.
After my first month in Poland I was ready to classify Polish girls as relatively easy, but the truth is I was mostly dealing with college girls, the easiest of the bunch. More than one Polish girl in the invisible category told me that young Polish girls had fast sex with me because they’re young and stupid. If you can find a scene where college girls hang out at, you should do fine.


Bang Iceland said:
The Afterparty Move:


There are no bars that remain open after 5:00, yet people will still want to party (Icelanders live for the weekend, if you haven’t noticed). This leads to a strong afterparty culture where some guy randomly decides to host people in his house. He invites four or five people and then word spreads to a larger group, but the problem is that everyone is so drunk and discombobulated that the afterparty rarely gets off the ground. People drop out, get lost, lose their phones, encounter drunken drama, and so on. So while everyone will be in front of the bar talking about an afterparty, most end up just smoking a couple cigarettes before going home. While it’s nice to get invited to an afterparty, it’s far better to throw the afterparty yourself so you’ll have home court advantage.
To execute the afterparty move, first say, “Are you going to sleep right now?” Give off a tone that makes it seem like you’re definitely not trying to go to bed. Unless she says yes, add, “Well I’m thinking of throwing an afterparty in my apartment. I have some good music and scotch. I’m staying right down the street.” (If the girl is really digging you, then all you have to say is, “Do you want to come over for a drink? I’m staying right down the street.”)
It’s as simple as that. If you get to the point where you can suggest an afterparty, your chances of getting laid are already at 50%. You make it very easy for her to say yes since you’re giving her the privacy she needs in order to get intimate. If you’re staying at a luxury hotel, don’t be afraid to namedrop it.
I know what you’re thinking: what happens if you invite a girl to your place and her friends want to come? One time I rolled an afterparty on a girl and she invited two girlfriends, so it was the four of us walking to my place. Then suddenly the friends got into some sort of fight and dropped out, leaving me isolated with the girl, who still wanted to come. Even if you end up taking a couple chicks back, Icelandic girls don’t babysit or cockblock one another, so all you have to do is hang in there until the others drop out.
One thing I loved about Iceland is that at the end of the night people really don’t give a fuck what happens to their friends. You’ll be surprised how many girls are drunkenly wandering alone on the streets at five a.m., whereas two hours earlier they were with a group of twelve people.
There’s a kidnap variation to the afterparty move that I want to discuss. Let’s say you approach three girls at the end of the night and they seem interested in your afterparty. Then two of those girls go off to the side to have a conversation with some other people, leaving you isolated with the third girl. It’s at this moment you should double down on your afterparty—in effect “kidnapping” her. Say, “Well I guess your friends don’t want to come to the afterparty, but how about we still do it?” Reiterate how close your hotel room or apartment is. If she says yes, say, “Cool, let’s go” and start walking. If her friends are out of sight to the point where the girl concludes that they have walked away, the bang is in the bag.
As you can see, this is more logistics than game. You need to approach at the right time, get her isolated, and then swoop her away with the afterparty move. Once in your room, get comfortable, make some drinks, put on some music, and then sit back as she makes it all too easy for you. Sex will be a foregone conclusion even though you haven’t kissed yet or talked long. The sex will be sloppy, her pussy will be dry since she doesn’t care about foreplay, and her breath will probably be awful, but hey, the speed of your “seduction” will make up for it.
Let’s say you approached a bunch of girls after last call in the bar and then in front of the street, but got no bites. Your next gambit will be walking around the center of the city approaching lone girls. While you can also approach pairs and triplets on the street, go for singles first. This strategy would never work in the States, but it does in Iceland.
Be polite and ask girls if they know of another bar that’s open. Try to get a chat going by sharing details about the bar you were at and how you’re still trying to figure out Icelandic nightlife. If she asks where you’re from or any other personal question, hit her with the afterparty move a minute later. If she declines the afterparty, your last-ditch play is to offer to walk her home, weaseling your way inside once you’re at her front door by asking to use the bathroom.
She has to be moderately inebriated for these moves to work, but chances are she will. It’s the late street approaches that are actually your best chance of fucking a young college girl who stubbornly didn’t separate from her pack until the very end of the night.
The bottom line in Iceland is that the game is just beginning at last call and keeps going until there are no more people on the street. If you gave up and went home alone to fall asleep at 6:00, you didn’t work hard enough. As a last resort, you should get a late night-snack at a busy food shack and continue approaching there, asking girls for an open bar.

Am reading 'Hack' by Graham Johnson.Quite an interesting read as he was a reporter for the now defunct News Of The World newspaper.
It is quite an eye opener the depths they would go to to bring someone in the public eye down with tales of sleaze,drugs, extra marital affairs etc.
Basically these guys had no morals and no qualms about whose life they were gonna destroy. Also interesting the contacts they had who could trace car regs for them etc.
Also points out how cold and ambitious Rebecca Brookes is it and the power she held which makes the current court case about phone hacking entirely believable as the paper really seemed to think they were above the law.
 
KLF - Chaos, magic and the band that burned a million pounds, by John Higgs.

It's got a recommendation on the front by Ben Goldacre. Just how cool is Ben Goldacre? (Very)
 
^Funny you should mention the KLF, I'm reading the Illuminatus! trilogy, and it's completely hilarious. It's dense, sure, but I can't remember having enjoyed a book so much. It also has a quotation of Timothy Leary declaring it "more important than Ulysses" in the paratext, which should probably be taken with a fistful of salt.
 
Just read Snow White Must Die, one of the many books I got for Christmas. Was one of my favourite reads in a long time.
 
Just finished "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" by Solenizhen
Hard to imagine life in a Gulag but that book gives a fair idea. Classic
 
^Great book, the feeling of raw visceral pleasure when he finallu gets to enjoy a morsel of sausage is unbelievable. It's only a two-hour-or-so read, too, well worth spending your tea break on.
 
Sounds amazing. I am enjoying the game Metro: Last Light, which is based on a book.

The game exists in the universe of the novel Metro 2033 and its sequels, written by Russian author, Dmitry Glukhovsky, but does not follow any direct storylines from the books.
 
Knock, Ivan Denisovich is one of the best books ever written. You must read it. The rest of his books are dull as fuck but One Day in the Life should be compulsory.

I seem to have rather a lot of books to read all of a sudden.
