whats are you all currently reading bookwise?

 

Im about 1/4 way through Roger Clarks autobiography sideways...to victory.

 

bloody brilliant book!!!!! all the little things you never know about ford and motorsport :thumbsup: ...(apparently the rally mk2 lotus cortinas were nicknamed banana cars cos they used to bend like fook on the door pillar and make the doors hard to open...it was that bad the bend was visible after a rally :shock: )

Anything by Chuck Palahniuk! He wrote fight club & his books are dark...

Just finished Lenny Mcleans autobiography :thumbsup:

 

I remember Lenny from his days as doorman at the Camden Palace – he was chirpy and approachable despite fearsome reputation.

 

From there he went on to a spell as doorman at the Hippodrome…

 

An ex acquaintance of mine who was/is a local gangster was friendly with Lenny this post Lenny breaking his jaw after a fight at the Palace (call it mutual respect)

 

I believe he achieved his notoriety as “King of the Cobbles” – your book may corroborate some of this…

 

Sorry Antz of subject again…

just finished reading "cocky" the cutis waren story, brilliant book especially when you've lived in the area's of liverpool they talk about but a bit scary when you realise you know half the people in the book :shock:

also resently read "mad frank" the story of frankie fraser, brilliant book what a head case, made the crays look like a pair of faggots.

Good book that, there is one by his wife too "Married to the Guv'nor" That was good too.

 

Might have read " Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azakaban" yesterday :oops: After years of slating it, out of principle, it was actually quite good and is too be recommended :thumbsup:

 

Right, im off to saw some wood and aimlessly drive on grass to re-assert my masculinity :mrgreen:

been reading the huge raft of 70s&80s car & motorsport magazines my awesome mrs sourced for me for xmas - she went to all the trouble of trying to find any with mk1 fezzas, especially race/rally (which are fairly rare!) ones.

that and the books on suspension setup & cylinder head modding she got me! top mrs. :thumbsup:
