Quote of the week

David Cameron on whether The Thick of It accurately represents the Conservative publicity machine: "I love The Thick of It. V funny... but only true about the other lot (not)."

Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

This is a marvellous read about a subject I really enjoy - sleep! Rather than being a book about sleep problems, it's about how enjoyable it is. It's very funny in places and has a great range of subjects, from stories about sleep, history, mythology, art and science. You can jump from place to place and it's very dippable, with lots of short items. It reminds in a way of the Eats, Shoots and Leaves book, which was about punctuation, but was interesting in its own right, even if you weren't obsessed with punctuation. It has a very engaging "feel" to it, and I think it is going to be a handy book for presents.
