A Chance Meeting

T'was a jovial day. (it was actually last week, really) 

I and my family went for a day out window shopping and sorts. 

and lo and behold guess what did i found? 

Too far? Look closer. hey ho its welsh's trainspotting. 

 Like everyone else my first exposure to this particular welsh's work was from danny boyle's adaptation. the 'choose life' monologue read by Ewan McGregor was really an eye opener. Enticing I should say. Why was this a chance meeting? Why I've put it at the back of my mind that one day I would want to get my hands on this book. and that was almost 10 years ago. And yes this was my white whale. my moby dick. 
     

And like Moby Dick, it packs a surprise (That; or i actually fail to do a research on the book prior to this.) The book was actually in written in scottish (i apologize if there is any other name for it) like GGAAAHHH!!! (thats 'wow' or 'holy rusted metal' for you)
