Recent comments
Reading and recently read
- 1793, N Natt och Dag. A description of the nastyness, brutishness, and shortness of lives in the late 18th Century that ought to make Gustafs skål disperse into dark corners.
- Warpaint series No. 44: de Havilland Venom and Sea Venom, W A Harrison. I would have liked a colour index for the profiles.
- Osprey Aircraft of the Aces: French Aces of World War 2, B Ketley. A bit rhapsodic.

- The Game Production Handbook, Third Edition, H M Chandler.
