    Ah yes, Bunty, that wonderful middleclassed magazine for inquisitive teenage virgins...who could forget the Four Marys: Cotter, Field, Radleigh and Simpson, friends at St Elmo's School for Girls, had discovered that a girl band, B True, who had bought property nearby, were being cheated by the (recruitment) agent, Jed "Dodgy" Upton.

    Oooh, I've said too much...

    Look my monkey friends, let's not pretend you read proppa novels on the tin can. Here is something much more up your alley - it is autobiographical for most of you.

    Geek Love
    A wild, often horrifying, novel about freaks, geeks and other aberrancies of the human condition who travel together (a whole family of them) as a circus.

    You know how much I was trying to get you to read something other than the Daily Mirror this week.
    that would be 'you're'

    The Daily Mirror, do they still print that then? I haven't seen it in years, I get all of my political knowledge and comment from the Beano actually (it is after all the most rabidly right-wing rag in the country (as befits a comic whose spiritual home is, ooh, let me hink, yes, Dundee!)

    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
