Watched the film / documentary of that Everest trip with the family a few weeks ago. My daughter is now reading the book and I will read it again when I get it back.
Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
I wish that were the case. History suggests otherwise!
Indeed! It’s a look at some of our (human) better sides which is hopeful 😊
Just read gas and electricity meters.
Read my horoscope today.
Very interesting.
Disappointed we're not still on the original 'Today's Reading' thread (https://forum.fellrunner.org.uk/show...hlight=reading) though understandable, given its lack of take-up, even at the time of the Forum's peak!
I'm currently on Roald Amundsen's My Life as an Explorer, but over lockdown I have read:
- David Baddiel / Jews Don't Count
- Richard Osman / Thursday Night Murder Club
- Benjamin Dreyer / Dreyer's English
- Ken Follet / On Wings of Eagles
- Dr Carol Dweck/Mindset
- Tim Marshall / Prisoners of Geography
- Stewart Lee / Content Provider
A short list, but - like my running - thanks to COVID more than I'd done in quite a while before that, and I've enjoyed going back to books.
