    the unauthorized biography.

    Anyone familiar with it? Not my usual fare but he's fascinating and the books by Sid Wadkins' wife.
    Thanks

    Do you have a nearby beach that you use the moment literary urges strike you, or do you save up all of your reads for your eventual habitual trek to a beach? :)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Briefly authorized I think.
    It has been in the works for a few years and Bernie cooperated until seeing the final draft, at which point it was no longer authorized. Or it could be a scam to sell more books.

    You've been pizzing and moaning about the snow all year and you head to the mountains? No sympathy mate.

    why did Sid's wife write the book, as opposed to Sid himself? he's written other books, including his own biography.

    Barbados. Great place but not a single Ferrari in the whole country.
    I'll relay the compliment to the Mrs.

    Really, not a single one? :eek: :eek:

    You two do look good and make a very nice couple. Probably best not to tell her I said she was "solid", unless she knows what you call me on here. :)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Too late ;)

    The irony is that at least one of our "neighbors" down there has/had one of the finest collections back in the UK.

    It'll be less expensive than the recent redecorating at least.
    Next year I'll stay home and use the money to buy a Fiat like yours ;)
