Currently reading The legendary Joe Meek. Fascinating portrait of Britain in the early 60's with lots of famous music names thrown in....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

Wool: Wool eBook: Hugh Howey: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store
Three Feet of Sky: Three Feet of Sky: Book One eBook: Stephen Ayres: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle StoreComment

Oh Dear # 2.
That's because imagining alternate physical realities is easy, imaging alternate personalities is hard.Hard Brexit now!
