    One of the best Paclad without a doubt

    I made it to watch Venezia aboot the time I was reading it what a strange way to get to a game by boat the stadium was the most ramshackle hole I have seen in a while. Huge home end held up by rusted scaffolding that had nae seen a Scafftag since Mussolini was breathing.

    Good insight into the skullduggery of Italian fitba, have you read Tim Park's Season in Verona?

    Just finished what does this Button Dae by Bruce D nae bad

    Tim Pears's In A Land of Plenty.

    What a writer he is.

    I read his The Horseman* (part 1 of a promised trilogy) when I was away on holiday in April, and raced through his In The Place of Fallen Leaves when I got back.

    *Gentle and bucolic, almost like Cider With Rosie or The Woodlanders in its West Country simplicicty, but with a twist like a kick in the knackers fae Doug Rougvie (ex-Keith).

    no bad but awf its time.

    Some of the comments are quality.

    The locals were unkempt, dirty and the children looked like idiots. I thought he was in Hartlepool not Kafirstan

    I finished David Kerr Cameron's The Ballad of the Plough, which contains nary a footnote to the boozer of the same name in Keith. Top stuff aboot the days of the fermtouns.

    Then I ate Tim Pears's Wake Up in a couple of days - good stuff, with the usual blooter of an Ally Shewan tackle about a chapter from the end.

    Now reading Ian McEwan's Enduring Love. I'm sure I started it once before as Chapter 1 is affa familiar. So far so good, like.
