If you're not a Monty Python fan (as you obviously aren't), you aren't allowed to post on KB. You need to read the terms and conditions.

I'm reading the Frank Zappa autobiography at the moment, but Quasieveil has got me onto Wishart's 'Air Con' book.

I can also highly reccomend the Football Factory trilogy by John King, good old fashioned football hooligan stuff but with a good angle on life in general.

For CC rider:

Good to know I can post in here, I do like a little Monty Python.

Book I am reading at the moment, - Yes Man by Danny Wallace. I havent seen the movie and I really dont want to, Jim Carrey would have turned it into an American disaster. The book is an autobiography by Londoner Danny and his decision to say Yes to everything, even a Penis Enhancer, only got through two chapters but its a laugh.

The book I really wanted to get but settled for the above, is Join Me, when Danny began a Cult. Will wait for this to come out in the Wairarapa, apparently we are a bit behind the times.

Yes Man is a fantastic read. All hopes of it becoming a great movie were dashed once I learned that the Americans were going to do it and Jim Carrey was to take the lead role.

**Lissa** · 5th May 2009, 10:13

Going to finish the book first before I get the movie out, I just cant see how the americans can turn this book into something great, and too much like Liar Liar with Jim in the lead.

Join Me also has a website, I might join them!

Ladies, this is a thread about books. Please take the Python to its own thread.

Another great read. This time in the form of F-4's and F-14s.
A life well lived sums up Hawk's career going from F-4 RIO to CO of TOPGUN.
Taking Tomcat's into the Vietnam war, and beyond. Also, having the ability to injure himself on a motorbike...

God I love Monty Python

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand to bring us shuddering, moaning and quivering back on to topic, we've all heard of Kevin Cameron, right (Tech Editor of Cycle World: absolutely brilliant at explaining technical stuff to retards like me).

He done writ a new book:

Its on Amazon (though out of stock)

Its called

"The Grand Prix Motorcycle: the official Technical History"

I am getting a copy. I might be prepared to get a few if anyone wants to split shipping..... not sure when they will be in stock or whatever. Bear in mind the US dollar has near doubled in value....
