Don't watch a lot to be honest but have to say Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Office and Extras all go down well with me. I find radio ends up taking up more of my time
Haruki Murakami, Douglas Coupland, Ali Smith, Martin Amis, TC Boyle, Ian McEwan - All of these authors are so readable and inventive - Pah to your Dan Brown's and your John Le Carre'sCurrently loving T.C. Boyle books - The Road To Welville, East Is East and The Tortilla Curtain all recently read and brilliant. Currently reading Water Music which is hilarious and seedy and adventurous and scurrilous.
My true friends - I do not go in for hero worship really.
