    It's quite a good collection and one I always go back to after reading one of his heavier duty sci-fi's. Seriously, get your grubby little mits on Matter. Just published on hardback and a snip at 9.50 (if Waterstone's are still doing at half-price). Still nothing beats Excession imo, Meatfuckers!!
  3. Attack Of The Unsinkable Rubber Ducks by Christopher Brookmyre Anyone else read this? It's a Parlabane story with a difference - he's broon breid. Read this back-to-back twice. Speak about misdirection! And what a twist at the end. To me this is the best Brookmyre novel since Be My Enemy. If you've never read anything by him start here and work your way backwards. So, other peoples' thoughts?

  9. In the many, many more category I hope you are not including Face/Off
  10. I think the Beeb's website has gone skew-iff. The story appears under Tuesday's banner.

    Just to be snide, petty and an excruciating wank; didn't the title of the book alert you in anyway as to what the content would involve? It's self-admittedly and unabashedly about football violence and why he got involved in the scene in the first place and why to a certain extent he glorifies it. It is not an ardent AFC fan's recollections and enthusings of the glory years. How you can liken what happened on the terraces and away from the grounds to a battle field and war zone where you are fighting evades me. The two are mutually exclusive, and never the twain shall meet. If you had been less churlish and persevered with the book then you'd have discovered the 80scasuals website and forum. There you can vent your spleen. I do not in anyway condone the voilence the casuals meted out. Back in the day I thought they were wanks, especially the under 5's. Some of the main members and heid honchos were OK but there was always a sense that they were spoiling for a stairheid rammy just for the sheer hell of it and always with the odds stacked in their favour - about 3 to 1. Sometimes more. Nowadays I'm a bit of a clothes horse and gazing through the retrospectoscope I, hand on heart, thought that the clobber they wore was indeed stylish (with the exception of Burberry). Now you have mitigation to call me a twat:up:

    Pedantry in motion: It's entitled Bloody Casuals: Diary of a Football Hooligan by Jay Allan I've read them both and found them to be entertaining as there's nothing better than a stairheid rammy between rival crews. Currently reading Attack of The Unsinkable Rubber Ducks by Christopher Brookmyre. Hoot-a -page hilarity all the way through
  19. Because felt-tip pens (hyphenated therefore counts as one word!)
  20. Typical Aberdeen-music thread from days of yore... Someone new comes along asking for a bit of advice and the thread gets hijacked by a misanthrope who bathes in negativity. Kookie, welcome to Aberdeen. If you go to the Tilted Wig at the Castlegate you'll find a juke box there that'll tickle your taste buds. If your looking for decent venues then take Dave's suggestions at face value.
