    The most powerful films

    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.

    Beating the spammers

    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.

    Baddiel on Dan Brown.

    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...

    Dan Brown

    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...

    Daphne du Maurier: Rebecca

    I considered it a "page turner" as it forced me into a couple of late nights. I had heard a couple of chapters on one of radio fours' serialisations a few years ago and kind of got swept up in that although I never did hear the end. I then bought the book for my wife which sat there unread...

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

    Leo Tolstoy: Anna Karenina

    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.

    Sea of Glory by N. Philbrick

    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.
