Re: Good book
Also got marilyn mansons autobiography which is supposed to be brilliant even though i know absolutely nothing about the bloke, and i'm not a fan either.
Oh well, better than the courier mail i suppose

Re: Good book
I enjoyed "A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian" (Ems recycle it - its in my bin pile - its great!)
I also like the mosquito coast by theroux, refuse to watch the film cause the books so good.
I also read and was vaguely interested "my name lon you like me" about a girl who is a prostitute in thailand. Not well written at all but just relevant to what I was thinking about in phuket.
I need more books - how expensive is it here!

Re: Good book
Re-reading (for about the 10th time) Fag Hag by Robert Rodi - desperately funny but poignant book, give it a go if you can get hold of it.
Should put fear into the heart of every bloke who feels he is being stalked by an unstable female friend, regardless of whether he is gay or not!
