    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe

    Well, I'll inevitably read both soon enough. If I commit to buying a book, there's no way I can't read it!

    Plus, I'm a sucker for reading the book and then watching the drama; I love doing that.
    Well Stu I'll tell you, surfing's not a sport, it's a way of life, you know, a hobby. It's a way of looking at that wave and saying, "Hey bud, let's party!"

    50 posts now exceeded; awaiting a copy of Wolf Hall with my Kindle; all is gravy!

    Especially chips and gravy.

    I've stated Wolf hall in anticipation again. I'm really enjoying it - and I'm still re-reading the bit before I left off.
