Well, 10 000 000 mails later we seem to be all agreed that Honey can e-mail his mates for advice on running the list. Great, now we can get down to important business like Sports biscuits. While I can understand the blend of cricket and an essentially bland traditional sweet snack product only edible with large amounts of tea is a marriage made in heaven, my vote goes to those really enigmatic ones where you can't tell which sport is being played. In the antique booksale somebody recommended Gabriel King's 'The Wild Road'. Well one half of Mr/Ms King's other work is also worth a read. That's the half who is M.John Harrison (Gabriel King is a nom-de-Wordperfect for him and some publishing agent working together). Judging by the stuff other people here seem to like I can recommend his semi-autobiog 'Climbers'. While this thread lives I must also get in my two top reads 'The Child Garden' by Geoff Ryman (totally twee) and Dylan Thomas' 'Under Milk Wood' - the book or the animated version. While I'm in a recommending mood, since zummer iz a cummin in I gave my ancient copy of Virginia Astley's 'FromGardens Where We Feel Secure' it's anual spin on the turntable. I don't know if you can still get hold of it but do if possible. It sounds a bit like what Gentle Waves would have had to sound like if Isobelle lost her voice. archel wrote: i was wondering whether i dare to put in some q's about b&s.... ...i can thereby track down lurking fans in york, you see. The answers are: 'Simple Things', the chinese one on East Parade, Oglethorpe, and behind the frozen fish isle in Sainsbury's but what are the questions? Anyway I don't lurk - I loom.
