@ImtheDaddy ... If you find any good ones, let me know!! Be interested to know a few good books.
@imperionic Yeah mate will do no worries. Hard to find a decent good book on your reqiurements, nothing better to be prepared I say 😀 but that's just me. Will let you know mate - Aidan
@Im ... Yes: [censored] poor preparation means [censored] poor performance, to quote one of my old bosses!
I'm reading Father's Homebirth Handbook at the moment, think that's the title anyways!

Welcome to the site btw
Cheers HarveysDad! @Imp yea definately a true quote. The mothers mum is strict as and I think telling her mum is gunna be the hardest part. So ATM were keeping it on the low! And I think I just wanna be a good dad you know show her mum we're serious about this and It hopefully shows I can be mature. This being the main reason I joined this forum, buying books off eBay - Aid
Hey Dads! Just found a good-looking cheap book on eBay on How To Be A Great Dad. Check it out at http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Great-Dad-Ian-Bru ... 2558fdbac5
@Im ... LOL!! I saw the link and thought it sort of read: How to be a great dad by Irn Bru ...
@Imp Pmsl 😆 😆 😆 😆 I've only just noticed now you've come to mention it 😛 Looks good though for the price 192 page hard back i think. I'm currently waiting on these 2 latest books i'm bidding on so fingers crossed
Oh boy, the "Gap" series!
One of those incredibly long sci-fi series I read heaps of as a teenager.
The Gap books were one of the better ones but make sure you have lots of time... or if you want something to keep you in reading for months, perfect!
It's quite gripping, psychological thriller sci-fi stuff, very complex characters and plots with a million twists and turns...
iceman by philip carlo, awesome autobiography based on a mafia hitman.
Finished reading Outlaw by Angus Donald - I came across it in a supermarket and thought I would give it a go. Its was great, The Robin Hood legend told through the eyes of a teenage thief called Alan Dale.Its great to see Robin Hood portrayed as a villian as well as a cult hero. A more savage and vengeance seeking Robin Hood makes for a much more interesting read. Not your standard retelling of the Robin hood tale, Donalds writing is similar in style to that of Bernard Cornwell.
The follow up, Holy Warrior has just come out - can't wait to read it.
I always recommend people to read Boris Akunin's series on Erast Fandorin. it is really thrilling.
