    Could you tell me a wee bit about this novel please ?

    PS The other book I rather enjoyed ,after seeing the play at the Edinburgh Fringe was the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson.

    Hence it came about that I concealed my pleasures, and that when I reached years of reflection, and began to look round me, and take stock of my progress and position in the world, I stood already commited to a profound duplicity of life.

          worked through all Andy McNabs books - funny how everyone he works with gets killed - remind me to make that black list of people not to work with.

                    that is where you are wrong...

                    "PS Milan, if you have to read a book about being an entrepreneur, then you are most certainly not one. Forget Plan B.",

                    if you think you already know everything and there is nothing more you can learn you will almost certainly fail with your plan b

                    if you have a plan b, and read such a book and it inspires you to consider things you have not already considered then you have learn't something

                    if you read such a book and learn nothing new, it confrims you already have the right skills and are moving in the right direction

                    Milan.
                    I rest my case, m'lud
