My nan used to tell us, when picking blackberries on the common, to never pick the ones below waist hight.

Played who in what? Never heard of it. The only Tyler I've heard of is in Aerosmith

Hi, It's a pretty good forum but whatever you do don't start another Dan Brown thread. ;)

Nice photo. Who is it?

What about Midnight Express. It's definitely one of my top three movies; the ending made me want to jump up and cheer, punch the air etc.

http://www.ebolamonkeyman.com/ Really funny replies to the Nigerian spammer. I've only read the first scam entitled Albert Fred. Very long but well worth a read.

I bet you've made her feel much better. Well done.

yes; Encona Bath or Shower?

Did anyone else catch Heresay on radio 4? Quite a good programme in which David Baddiel took the piss out of The Da Vinci Code; both for and against the book. He said he'd been on a website which basically said it was crap. I presume it was here. It's worth having a listen; you can hear...

Excellent,loved it.

Thats exactly it. It's a bit like when I was about 16 and first started work someone gave me Master of the Game by Sydney Sheldon and I thought it was excellent; if you read The Da Vinci Code before you have read to much else you might think it's a masterpiece (forgive the pun). These type of...

Or perhaps "The Beach"

Nice answer. Sorry Martin, couldn't resist it. ;)

I didn't realise members could ban other members. I thought you had to be a mod.

On a lighter note; I think Tolstoy got it perfectly correct when describing the difficult chidbirth Levin had to endure. I read it with tears of laughter; maybe you have to have been there! Oh yeah Maya what do you think of Rebbecca. It's definateley in my top ten.

Sorry, can't help with this book but I have read The Heart of the Sea by Nathaniel Philbrick. Excellent book about the whalers from Nantucket. Very interesting and was the basis for Melville's Moby Dick. I will definately try the book you have mentioned. Thanks.
