I have been a bit disappointed with some recent Bill Bryson books, but this new one is a real joy. He has resumed his travels around Britain, older, a bit grumpier and still very very funny. He visits many of the places where we lived (including Bournemouth when he was also living there and working on the local paper), worked and spent holidays and those bits are especially enjoyable.
Has anyone else read it yet?
Ancestry - Is it worth it for only researching fifty missing years?
Jonathan Ross, backpedalling furiously.
