Yesterday, 7th February was the 200th 'birthday' of Charles Dickens. He was quite a prolific writer and a bit of an 'A-lister' mega-star of his day. If you enjoy reading you should try some of his writing. Anyway, for all you fellow Kindle owners out there, you can download 'The Complete Works of Charles Dickens' for just 99 pence. Now that's got to be unmissable. Or if you prefer just download your personal favourites for free.
Good ole Wilkins Micawber eh We could start a whole new thread on some of those wonderfully descriptive victorian names. Don't ask me why, but I've been fascinated by the name Thomas Gradgrind. (Hard Times) what an appropriate name.
