I bought The Dangerous Book for Boys and Why Don't Penguins Feet Freeze for Dave, he's really enjoying the Penguin book because it's filling his head with more useless information!!!!!:hysterica
I got the Chris Moyles and Gordon Ramsay autobiographies and my MIL got Marley and Me, it's a guys story about his golden labrador. I just finished reading Plain Truth by Jodi Picoult, it was very good.

DD bought me Chris Moyles "cause we listen to him in the morning". Am half way thru and it's a good read, obviously written by him - which is cool.

I haven't had chance to read them yet. I'm still ploughing through Salem Falls by Jodi Picoult, although to be fair it has just got interesting. I'm itching to read one of my new books.

Yep, I've read all of hers...wasn't so keen on the last one though. Can't remember what it was called now but was about an imaginary friend. Think it might have been called 'where rainbows end' or something similar.
Cried my eyes out to PS I love you!
Will let you know how this one is when I've read it.....if I ever get chance!

I am really enjoying And It's Goodnight from him.....It is funny and written in a very tender and caring way....but only for fans of the Two Ronnies I suppose!!
You have painted a pretty grim picture to have in my head at this time of night. Are you better now?
