      EUROPE: Glad to know it's do-able, been on my shelf for years, with another of his, about WWII. Meawhile, I've been reading some true adventure books, not that history isn't, one being GODFORSAKEN SEA by Derek Lundy, about a round-the-world one-man sailing race. With Giles's friend Ian's continuing onslaught of the seas, thought it may be of interest, then along comes this list today from the BY&N Review page: http://tinyurl.com/4y6r8cj

                              i would have to sent something back. Probably cost as much as the book itself

                                I ship for free so no need to ship anything back… But this might actually be easier:

                                  I'm currently reading 'Wherever You Go, There You Are' by Jon Kabat-Zinn.  It's about mindfulness meditation - something that I really need to incorporate into my life and which I finally feel ready for.

                                  Prior to that I (re) read 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People' by Stephen Covey, which is one of my 'life reference' books.

                                          Worth reading. I swear on all my denim.

                                            Dude, post here: http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=780.msg118626#msg118626

                                            I would happily discuss authors with you.

                                            😃

                                            Well, currently I'm reading up on Vernon Vinge, like him ok so far.

                                            When it comes to sci-fi I like Simmons, Banks, Hamilton, Reynolds and the rest of the classics, right now I'm looking for a large series, not necessarily the same storyline, but the same universe, like Reynolds or Banks. Suggestions?

                                            Seize the day and don't you cry.
