A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

THE SMOKING DAIRIES - Simon Gray
This is the opposite of the Tynan diary.
Firstly, its not really a diary its an autobiography and secondly it was written when Gray was dieing of cancer, and like Tynan he was always broke, so it feels like a superannuation scheme for his family.
It has its moments and there is some good humour, but over all it was a struggle.
There are another three sequels but I'll be giving them a miss
