Kafka's Motorbike revisited

"Now, which pair of big pants shall I wear today?"





No film makes me laugh so much.




"The opening of an envelope? I'll be there".



Ladies and gentlemen...Ladies and gentlemen...Ladies and...OI! OI! Can you all turn around please? The mics not working...Ladies and gentlemen, weclome to the launch of Kafka's Motorbike, the greatest book of our time...except for yours Salman Rusdie which are also very good. And yours Lord Archer...yours...aren't bad.

Bridget Jones' Diary 2001



Never let it be said that your correspondent is anything other than supportive to Peter’s Friends when circumstances and energies allow. So, you will be delighted to read that he is due to attend a book launch at the Kremlin on Farringdon Road tomorrow night at Bridget Bush’s invitation. Although it would have to go some to beat the Kafka’s Motorbike section of Bridget Jones’s Diary, Bush assures me that not only will she be wearing something nice, but also that SR (as I gather he's known in PR circles) will be turning up for the occasion. It goes without saying that I shall be taking the camera along for the evening......
