One of my all time favourite novels. 📕

He was an absolute genius.

Saw someone being harassed by a uniformed officer yesterday for not buying a tram ticket costing a couple of quid and threatened with a 120 quid fine

Very 1984

Yeh but what about the goat?

Ah yes they represented uber drivers.

Make 1984 fiction again

There will be justice in the end.

As the Nasis and Soviet Union found out, you cannot crush the human spirit.

What's more, Jesus Christ has been winning battles since the dawn of time.

He will reign forevermore

I am shocked...absolutely shocked...
to find that some people on this notice board actually...
READ BOOKS!!!
I haven't read a book in years.
I've written a couple, however!
But they are technical books,...not for the faint of heart.

The last book I actually read was "The Boys in the Boat".
And that was because my wife forced me to read it.
I found it totally boring, boring..except the last chapter where they win the 1936 Olympic eights gold medal race.

A long long time ago, when I wasa young and naive...I did read a book by George Orwell....
"Homage to Catalonia"
about his time in the Spanish civil war..
I could have written a better book about Catalonia myself...but it would have featured restuarants!

Could you have written one on the french cheeses of Catalonia? And called it Fromage to Catalonia.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I would have written about Il Bulli at Rosas up coast from Barcelona.
