Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer
I am probably part of a short membership of people to have read this book and not read Everything is Illuminated. I am currently pushing through that novel and even though I don’t understand all of the Jewish references it’s still splendid.
About this book though. Magical, confident, wonderful, interesting, quirky,...

White Chocolate Butter.
When I was a kid growing up in Austria my Dad brought back this white chocolate butter from, I think it was Budapest but I could be very wrong. It was one of the most amazing things I’ve tasted and I can still remember the taste. I wish I had it now.

Ideas with Rich
There should be designated lanes in shopping centres for various speeds. Lanes near the windows should be for slow walking and peering at windows, and then lanes furthest away should be for overtaking and walking quickly.
I know it’d be hard to enforce and probably wouldn’t work perfectly but any improvement is an improvement. It would save me from running into the backs of bogans as...
