I have polished off Eric Clapton: The Autobiography and it made for an interesting read. Credit to him for actually writing it, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been reading and watching a lot of media recently about the implications of the global meltdown, credit crisis, apocolypse etc. and have been fielding a number of questions about what this means for us here at The Nile.
On balance I think there will be a significant slowdown in consumer spending both in Australia and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I will start by saying that I am not a hypochondriac. People who know me will plead otherwise but I maintain that I am simply easily panicked. Hypochondria is a proper condition, let&#8217;s not forget. Myself, I am merely in tune with my body&#8217;s every change and symptom. You call it obsession, I call it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Don&#8217;t underestimate the power of a Jodi Picoult novel. Oh, they suck you in, you read as many as you can, and just when you think you&#8217;re exhausted and can&#8217;t face any more drama and tense courtroom happenings, another novel is released and you&#8217;re back on the Picoult train.
After reading a novel or two on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know how popular this book is in Australia. I found it when I was living in London a few months ago. I suppose you can say it&#8217;s a bit of a cult book in that for years it had a somewhat underground following. It didn&#8217;t do very well at first and almost faded [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other day I polished off The Road by Cormac McCarthy and I am still recovering. The rate at which the book sucks you in and spits you out is incredible. I won&#8217;t try and do this book justice- I wonder if anyone can. Suffice it to say that I completely understand all the hype [...]]]></description>

If you can&#8217;t watch Australia slip slowly down the medal tally, what can you do with your time?

One of the first true rock and roll wives has held onto her story until now, and finally gives us a glimpse into the magic and mayhem of surviving the 60&#8217;s, rock &#38; roll and extraordinary marriages.
Being a Beatle nerd, I knew the basics before reading Wonderful Today [...]]]></description>
