I like books. Also politics, but I'm trying the 12 step detox programme. Food, music, travel and films get my interest too.

Wonder how it's programmed to deal with average speed cameras? Sounds like a guaranteed way to rack up points and lose your licence.

They should turn up the temperature just a little, make sure he has an extra-comfy chair, maybe a mug of Horlicks.

Very little TV and not being so stubborn to keep reading the rotten ones for me.

My wife reads 2 / 300 a year, but she's an absolute machine when it comes to reading books.

You can do it! But even if you don't, what matters is you enjoyed the books you did read.
