Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Fantastic, easy to read book. Very funny and I related to how he felt about life, relationships and growing up. Even my other half enjoyed it! PS the film was a bit disappointing because it had a lot to live up to, but probably better if you haven't read the book.

This book are funny and almost everyone could relate to Brian in someway. He was desperate to fit in at university but just didnt. From spots to friends and women, he struggled with them all.

Cringeworthy but amusing.
