Re: The Shepherd's Life.
I have rarely read any fiction since I left school and college.
After the first Gulf War, I devoured a number of books about the SAS and read a few military biographies. Not read much since then really.
I tend to be irritated by grammar and punctuation.
When I had a bad bout of fluey cold, I tried some of OH's Harry Potter books and ? Dan Brown ? stuff ... oh yawn ...
