Joe Dunthorne, Submarine

 I saw the film a few years ago which was quite funny, and it's the same with the book. It's not quite the incredibly hilarious best book about teenagedom that the blurb suggests, but it's funny, Welsh and has no filter. Very enjoyable and I've put more by Joe Dunthorne on my to-read list. I'm still trying to catalogue all the books in the house, I'm 750 books in so far but still have British and European history to do, so final total will be about 1500 I would guess. I need to find time each day to just do a little bit more though. At the same time I'm trying to do at least 2 hours of exercise a day as my weight is creeping up and I don't want to change my diet. Yesterday I did a tour of the Western end of the M25, a littoral of gravel pits, scrap yards and fly-tipped sofas. All good practice for my 50th birthday cycle plans though
