I read this on the way to and from Cornwall the other day: it is brilliant. Irvine Welsh is a fantasic author even if I dinnae know what he is blathering about at times, ken? This book is barry but.

Begbie is one of the greatest creations in modern literature and his antics in the prisoon cell was hilarious.

And everyone knows a Spud, Sick bo.. er Simon Williamson and Renton in real life.

I demand that everyone reads it.

I found Irvine's diliberate misuse of grammar hard to follow too. Also for some reason I couldn't help giving some of the characters Geordie accents when reading their Leith (I'd love to read Spud's history of Leith) dialects.

But I never made Begbie sound like a "his special deliveries in jail and the implied connotation" in my head. Honest gadge I dinnae.

Man that cat is scary even though he's not real...
