But it was a very gripping read. Down Under - very funny, and I learnt a few things about my country, too. Don't Lean Out Of The Window , by Stewart Ferris and Paul Bassett, a hilarious account of some English slobs' trip around Europe by train. The P plates come off on 27th January 2001.

For some reason, some other people of doubtful sanity like it too, but that's their problem. My surname used to be Quinlem. This is my dad's surname, but after my parents split up, my mum changed surnames back to her maiden name, Bowen. My sister and I also became Bowens. The name comes from an ancestor whose given name was Quin Lem.
