Used to read a hell of a lot more until the internet reared its ugly head, and I'm the poorer for it.
The Kindle and Kobo e-readers have made access to books far more convenient and space saving for the likes of me, being something of a hoarder with regard to books.
I'm sure Nat would agree that I should spend a little less time in the world of Google.

Peter?

I only remember Dick. Strange that you, of all people, should forget Dick.

Also recently finished the Thursday Murder Club series by Richard Osman, really enjoyable murder mysteries. Very humorous as well. Not sure if anybody is interested in this kind of thing on here anymore but I recommend them all the same.

I'm intersted in the Osman books, but I've not got round to reading one yet. I've asked a few people and the views are mixed. There's no middle ground. It seems they love them or hate them. Think it's time I tried one. Use the Kindle more and more these days so I'll download his first effort this week.
In passing, I don't read half as much as I used to do. I seem to exist on a diet of football, the internet and The Twilight Zone.

Oh no. Rod Serling was born on Christmas day, so I'm with Rod.
