Six Degrees, though since all worse case climate-change scenarios seem to be being realised, perhaps a new edition up to eight degrees is needed.

I'm reading The story of Pink Floyd by Mark Blake
Only a chapter or so in, but interesting reading as they're my favourite ever band

Also reading a lot of books about Mao Tse Tung, due to having to do an individual assignment on the causes of the Cultural Revolution- also, interesting reading

The book on my bedside table is 'Elephants on Acid' by Alex Boese, it's a book of wierd experiments that have taken place, including injecting an elephant with 297 milligrams of LSD. The elephant died but it's still unsure whether it's the LSD that killed him or the drugs that were used to revive him after he fell unconcious with the distress of the injection. Lucky bugger.

I bought some new books to take on hols with me in May and am trying desperately not to read them before I go, so therefore I have raided my daughter's bookshelf for light reading material and am currently halfway through The Diary of Anne Frank!

"The God Of Small Things" by Arundhati Roy. Semi-autobiographical first novel about growing up in India. Harrowing in places but brilliantly written.


I got this last week after I got back from India. Not started it yet though as I've just finished Shantaram and started White Tiger.

Have you read Shantaram? It was great!

In 1978, gifted student and writer Greg Roberts turned to heroin when his marriage collapsed, feeding his addiction with a string of robberies. Caught and convicted, he was given a nineteen-year sentence. After two years, he escaped from a maximum- security prison, spending the next ten years on the run as Australia's most wanted man. Hiding in Bombay, he established a medical clinic for slum- dwellers, worked in the Bollywood film industry and served time in the notorious Arthur Road prison. He was recruited by one of the most charismatic branches of the Bombay mafia for whom he worked as a forger, counterfeiter, and smuggler, and fought alongside a unit of mujaheddin guerrilla fighters in Afghanistan. His debut novel, SHANTARAM, is based on this ten-year period of his life in Bombay. The result is an epic tale of slums and five-star hotels, romantic love and prison torture, mafia gang wars and Bollywood films. A gripping adventure story, SHANTARAM is also a superbly written meditation on good and evil and an authentic evocation of Bombay life.

 


It was my dream to play for Palace and to make my debut. I've always played for the club so if I'm playing here, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

- John Bostock (Nov 2007)
