It is at this point that normal language gives up and goes and has a drink. #terrypratchett #thecolourofmagic

Good Omens | Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett
post image

It would take a lot to faze a copper from the Met.

It would take,for example,a huge,battered car that was nothing more nor less than a fireball,a blazing, roaring,twisted metal lemon from hell,driven by a grinning lunatic in sunglasses,sitting amid the flames , trailing thick black smoke,coming straight at them through the lashing rain and the wind at eighty miles per hour.

That would do it every time.

Azar @rretzler it's absolutely brilliant! I just finished reading it for the second time and looking forward to the series too! 5y

The Strange Library | Haruki Murakami

Amazing book cover and a very strange book! Should I be afraid of libraries now? Hmmm....

And does history repeat itself,the first time as tragedy,the second time as farce? No that's too grand,too considered a process. History just burps,and we taste again that raw onion sandwich it swallowed centuries ago. #history #julianbarnes

Ah! The strength of woman comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analysed,women merely adored. #oscarwilde #anidealhusband

Carry On, Jeeves | P G Wodehouse
Pickpick

Such a witty and funny book. Had me in fits of histerics all the while I was listening to it. Probably made more than one person go: well she's a bit bunkers!
Definitely highly recommend! The best summary of this book is these two lines from it:

Jeeves: we must think sir
Bertie: you think. I haven't got the machinery!

Ye_Mighty_Andy_Spare Anyone who likes Wodehouse is a supremely decent person. His writing's sublime 6y
Azar @Ye_Mighty_Andy_Spare why thank you! And I do agree. He's just brilliant! Can't wait for the next one 6y

Jeeves smiled paternally or rather,he had a kind of a paternal mascular spasm about the mouth which is the nearest he ever gets to smiling. #jeeves #pgwodehouse

The Idiot | Fyodor Dostoevsky

Nothing is easier for ordinary people of limited intelligence but to imagine themselves exceptional and original and to revel at that delusion without the slightest misgiving.

Three Men in a Boat | Jerome K. Jerome

It is not that I object to the work, mind you; I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart. #ThreeMenInABoat #JeromeKJerome

The only good thing about me spending the summer holiday with Katz was that the rest of the America didn't have to do that!

mania Ah, Katz is back in this? I have to read it! 😃 6y
Azar @mania so far he's just mentioned a few things of him in a trip they had done years ago. Here's hoping there will be more of him 😁😁 read it anyway. It's hilarious! 6y

Shame trailed instant intimacy.. . Was our intimacy paid for in the wrong currency? Or is intimacy the desired product no matter where you find it, How you enquire it, What you pay for it, Black market, grey market, taxed, untaxed, under that table, over the counter?

Homage to Catalonia | George Orwell

Whenever it's conceivably possible the business of today is put off until manana (tomorrow). In Spain, nothing from a meal to a battle ever happens at the appointed time.

Listening to #GeorgeOrwell talk of poverty and buying in small portions, resulted in my supermarket visit to be the cheapest grocery shopping ever! 😂
