Congratulations! I would love to be included
Very generous of you.

I'd say yes, read it. I found it a reasonably good thriller, loved all the codebreaking stuff, and thought the plot was about as plausible as most other thrillers on the market.
Just remember, it is entirely fiction.
Might help if I posted the reply in the right order!

Unfortunately, "Accountign For Business - an Introduction", "Use Technology In The Workplace" "Operate A Personal Computer/Use Business Technology" and "Computer Accounting With MYOB V14", all for work. They are new tex…
Me too!
I went back and said that I collect postcards and stamps, and if he didn't have a book that could be offerred in return, (it's not cheap posting to Romania!), I'd mail the book to him after I received a postca…
I know exactly what Pixette means.
I used to read up to a book a day, especially when I was commuting to work and had up to an hour each way each day to read, not to mention lunch time, etc.

Sorry, having been raised on the novel, I find all of the movies, except for the silent version starring Lon Chaney Snr, trite. And don't even mention the musical where they try to make the Phantom, who is disfigured by…

I bought 73 new books at a sale just last night!
I just pile them up in huge piles on the floor. I started sorting them alphabetically by author years ago, but once I'd filled all the bookcases in the second and third bedrooms and had neat piles waist high all down th…

Re: Do you drink water straight from the tap?
Yes, and I count my lucky stars that I live somewhere that you can, unlike most of the world's population.
We don't pay enough for it either. Australia is basically one huge desert with a few liveable areas around th…
