In fairness, it wasn't an original line, Holloway probably used it as well

Who penned it originally?

It's hard to say.
We know that Yahweh used it in the garden of Eden when he was chatting and smoking a joint with Adam, but I think it's obvious that he'd plagiarised it from somewhere. He's always doing that.

Currently listening to this Audiobook, and really enjoying it.

Just started a Colin Bateman book called Driving Big Davie. Part of the Dan Starkey series (but the first of the series I have read).

Read his Murphy's Law book after enjoying the tv series and really enjoyed that so looking forward to this one. Although the first few chapters have been about Dan wanking into a cup but very funny so far.

Good book that, highlights just how inept conservation efforts have been. Fancy walking parts of that trail one day

Yep really good book, and despite how hard the trail sounds to walk I would love to do it one day. Only realised after downloading that this book is about 13 years old.

Any, you can't go wrong with Bryson. Notes from a Small Island is probably my favourite.

Now reading 'Cloud Atlas' by David Mitchell (the other one).

I really wanted to just put "this" at the bottomof this post, but instead I'll agree that Bryson's books are very good and NfaSI is my favourite as well.
