I do love making a list, nothing better on a rainy day, waiting for a bus. I would love to be posting pictures, but it is so damned slow. I have not found any bulk image resize software that works on my litte acer yet. Lest everyone think my adventures are all daring do and bothering gap year students, here are some of the books I have been digesting since the trip began:-
Consuming Passions: History of English Food and Appetite - Philippa Pullar
People's War; People's Army - Bernard B. Fall, Vo Nguyen Giap, Roger Hilsman
First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers - Loung Ung
Outliers: The Story of Success - Malcolm Gladwell
Dharma Bums - Jack Kerouac
The Great Psychedelic Armadillo Hunt, A Walk through Austin - Kinky Friedman
Far from the Madding Crowd - Thomas Hardy
Art of Pilgrimage: The Seeker's Guide to Making Travel Sacred - Phil Cousineau

Hey Jim. I've not read any of those books, although I've heard of the odd one (far from the madding crowd). I just bought a book called "sniffer dogs, spy bees and one woman's adventures in the surveillance society headspace" by Amber Marks. I only read a bit in the shop and haven't read properly yet, but it looks good and pretty funny, think you would probably like it.
