favourite reading material

[Phil]

well it looks like my nosy night tonight what`s your favourite read?
at the mo mine is all tied up in law and sociology but my favourite reads are normally Andy mcnab,
papers are the times and the star (not much contrast there )
oh and of course the regs although gn3 has had it`s place amongst the most read books on my shelf

 

[Sintra]

Can't wait till the new edition of my favourite book is published. BS 7671 17th edition ammendment 1.

Jokes aside i haven't read a book in 15 years all the emails and posts on here do me.

 

[Phil]

can`t afford to be buying books when we are stumping £70 out for the regs every two years

 

[Sintra]

Thankfully i get any books or reference material supplied by the firm.

best way mate. i was in the uni book shop with a guy moaning about paying thirty quid for a book about 8 times the thickness of the brb the other day. i told him not to become an electrician or he will really know what book expense is

 

[Phil]

lucckly enough when the amendment comes out the uni will have it in the library and i think they will be getting an online copy so i won`t have to part with anymore cash for that one

I'm in the middle of 5 books at the mo..

Alan Sugars Autobiography,
The Roots Of Obama's Rage - Dinesh D'Souza,
Tony Blair - A journey (A hard read, but I'm nearly done),
Steven Hawking - The Grand Design,
The Coming Insurrection - The Invisible Committee

I've just finished Steig Larsson's Millenium Trilogy which was good.

Plus I have too many electrical books to list, but I'm always flicking through them.

For me it has to be the regs and gn3 always sends me of to sleep at night after first 2 pages

I considered reading this, but anyone who risks ruining top gear IMO does not deserve my custom.
