I think that it is definately classed as stealing, the same as pirate copies of DVDs and downloading music off the net. I think I’m one of the few (sad?) people who still BUY dvds and cds from shops or internet sites and all my software is bought.

Can highly recommend a book called “The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas” by John Boyne.
I borrowed if from a friend and read it cover to cover in a day without moving from the sofa and it is only 216 pages long.“… nine year old Bruno knows nothing of the Final Solution and the Holocaust. He is oblivious to the appalling cruelties inflicted on the people of Europe by his country. All he knows is that he has been moved from a comfortable home in Berlin to a house in a desolate area where this is nothing to do and no one to play with. Until he meets Shmuel, a boy who lives a strange parallel existence on the other side of the adjoining wire fence adn who, like the other people there, wears a uniform of striped pyjamas.
Bruno’s friendship with Shmuel will take him from innocence to revelation. And in exploring what he is unwittingly a part of, he will inevitably become subsumed by the terrible process.”
Would give it 8/10
Dont know if your aware of this Catty but its just out on film. Hitting cinemas about now, I saw a trailer for it. I think this will make a grand job of showing kids what went on,during these horrible days.
Yes, it said on the dust cover that it was being made into a motion picture. I haven’t seen it advertised yet and hope that whoever plays the two boys are able to give justice to the book.

Today is my anniversary as a non-smoker, 17 whole months of being smoke free!
11421 cigarettes NOT smoked, Lifetime saved 2 months, 27 days and 5 hours and money saved £3008.64.I dont think it will make any difference if pictures are shown on packets or even if a graphic television advert is shown to stop people smoking. I knew all the risks when I smoked I chose to smoke. The only way to stop smoking is to actually WANT to stop.
I think i will hold my breath and go blue (r)
