I’ll leave it there 😎 one of my neices asked what I wanted for Xmas and I said the broons book , she thought I was joking ! I wasn’t. I’m a humble person really 😎I don’t ask for much . if there anything in the album I’ll let you all know . They surely must have moved with the times ?

dougal Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Don't usually say anything about the books I've read, but this one was excellent. Would make a great mini series.

I’d heard from a couple of guides on my travels through Canada that the brown/black/grizzly bear interbreeding means that all 3 can have the genetics of each other and are no longer considered pure bred. Like a grizzly can be both brown and black and brown/black can have grizzly dna. I was also told that there are only 2 pure out and out non mixed gene bear spices left as both types of bear are the only bears found in that habitation…one being the polar bear and the other, I can’t remember but I think it’s Alaskan….. course I could use tinternet to find out 😳
Jamhammer Posted January 22 Posted January 22 The Library Cat, recommended by my Mrs and set in Edinburgh Absolute pish
Jamhammer Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Just finished Carlo Rovelli’s White Holes Very interesting if you’re interested in Astrophysics etc and also a bit thick

I loved it, raced through it in a couple of days. Checked and noticed that Martin Scorsese has purchased the rights. I've also got a copy of Killers of the Flower Moon to read as well.

Never saw the film of it so all new for me. On another note, im sure I saw you reading some Bernard Cromwell before. Ever read any Sharpe? Been thinking about getting into them.
PortyJambo Posted February 17 Posted February 17 (edited) I think it was someone on here who recommended it, so reading this at the moment and enjoying it so far. Fun to see the Edinburgh based names popping up, pubs and all, and matching them to their real life counterparts (easy to do for most of the pubs so far, the likes of Old Chain Pier and Canny Man ) Edited February 17 by PortyJambo
Bigsmak Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Just started Dungeon Crawler Carl - Its fun so far - and totally crazy"!

I've not read any Sharpe as yet, but I do have a couple of Sharpe novels on my book shelf but don't think they're the any of the first ones. May need to try and find some of the earlier ones to begin with.

I went and got Tiger and Triumph which are first in the chronology but well later in the actual publication order. Didn't realise till after I'd bought them. Not sure if that's the best way to read them or not but some online recommended going chronology.
EH11_2NL Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Probably about the 8th or 9th time I've read this book. Watched the film about a dozen. Still amazing. It's my lavvy book. 'You're gonna have to go home reeking of ma shite!'
