Just finished In A Strange Room by Damon Galgut. Only managed to read three of the six Booker short listers (Room and C the others) - the result is on Tues evening and personally it'd be Room (loosely based on the Fritzl case). However, Galgut's novel is rich in geographical references and the first person/third person narrative might be the next big thing and that might just swing it. C is favourite.

Just got the Alan Sugar autobiography. I'll report back in about 6 months when I've finished it.

Just read Snouts in the Trough by Ken Foxe.

The dirty bastards had some time traveling the world in the lap of luxury. Makes me so angry. The figures are that high and there are that many of the they become a blur after the first couple of chapters and they barely even register. And now we must pay for it all while they swan off witrh their big bonuses and big pensions. Bastards.

Darragh Se's book is just out...looking forward to it....I have it ordered on Amazon so I'm trying to stop reading it when I go into Eason's....though from what I hear he doesnt rattle any cages like Kennellly or Jack O'C did...although I think he gives his Uncle a few rattles

About 3/4 way through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,really loving it.
I see there is also a film on it in Swedish,anyone watched it with the English subtitles? Is it worth watching?

[5 Sams]

Just as I thought Darragh's book was benign enough....not much controversy apart from Jack getting a wee rattle (we didnt move in the same circles) and a bit of good natured banter about Paidi...a few refs got a lash as well but nothing to take him to the High Court about...a bit disappointing in fact....I'm sure he has plenty of juicy stuff he could write about esp.. the Mo Fitz saga, he glossed over Tomas and the Gooch gettin dropped. The book was like having a lovely meal and being still hungry when you're finished....enjoyable but not enough....

Is definitely worth checking out. Maybe a wee bit too long but is really easy to watch even with the subtitles. Some brutal scenes in it that would be diluted in a Hollywood version.

Not much of a reader but just finished a book Called "I Hope they serve beer in hell".  Written by an American guy called Tucker Max about his exploits with women, drink and parties.  Very good read for the lads, good laugh, he claims its all true also.
