#53. Diggin' out splinters with a utility knife, or better, not diggin' 'em out till you show 'em around..."aint that a grand one...!"
#54. Fixin' whatever it is at three AM, like a water leak spraying on the electrical panel.
#55 Givin' a good thumpin' to some as$h*!& who just insulted yer gilfriend.
#56. (A real Toolman Classic) Turbocharging the lawnmower with a hairdryer
Works only if you remove the heating element.
#57. Getting cheezed off with the price and longevity of lawnmower blades and making your own ones out of 4 mm thick Stainless Steel (Can then Grind stumps:D, rocks, concrete, cats )

I like the non-genre stuff as well. Favourite is probably "The Bridge" followed by "Walking on Glass". I've read 'em all, some twice. Just waiting for the lazy Scottish git to write another one. Since I've caught up with the back catalogue, I need more than one every couple of years.
Yes, and it needs to be a good one - I thought Song of Stone was a bit boring and The Business was a bit too straight. Dead Air was OK as a book, but it was just a good story, nothing very Banksy. Favourites would be The Bridge and The Wasp Factory in the "weird" range and Crow Road and Complicity in the "more like a normal thriller" range.Quote:

An update
The Algebraist by Iain M Banks has just been or is just about to be released.
Supposedly, it is something to do with algebra and probability :rolleyes:

Silent,
"The Bridge", is that the one which seems like a long drawn out hallucination/bad dream, but turns out to be some guy teetering on the edge of death in hospital?

Haven't read any Stephen Fry. Didn't know he wrote to be honest. I'll give it a spin next time I'm near a bookshop.Quote:
