theyre both adventure/travel books i suppose both the outcome of a bet with his mate.
round ireland with a fridge is just that! i journey hitch-hiking round ireland with a little fridge its pretty funny. http://www.tony-hawks.com/books.php?id=1
playing the moldovans at tennis is his adventures tracking down all 11 moldovan players for a game of tennis when he declared during an england v moldova qualifier that he reckons he could beat every one of them at tennis. good fun. http://www.tony-hawks.com/books.php?id=2

Gridlock is an Elton book. I enjoyed it. I have liked all of his and I am currently reading High Society.

You mentioned, I wondered if that was why you were reading the books. Apparantly they are very touching, but I don't think I could get into them.

and to add to lcfc lad..
In 'one hit wonderland' he tries to get a number 1 hit record in a european country and 'piano in the pyrenees' is about him setting up a second home in france.
He's very funny and easy to read. would recommend all 4 tbh

I've seen there has been a film made of it.
A good book if i remember, lent it to a Tranmere fan in 2001 and never saw it again. I wonder how many books I've lost that way...

Really??? Must be nothing like the first Green St then, which is probably one of the worst films I've ever suffered and wins the Macky award for football movie most removed from reality.

:icon_bigg No, I haven't seen the second but it's apparently one of the worst films ever made and as you know the first one wasn't far from that either...
So go watch it and tell us what you think.

Ever so slightly, the jury was hung when voting for the award
