Since we finished the presentations on Bryson's book, I thought you might enjoy listening to the man himself on a shorter version of his book
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvDj6ZDozSM. You can have fun figuring out the Aussie accent of the presenter.
BTW, remember Lizzie, who visited us at the beginning of the year? Well, Bryson was, between 2005 and 2011, Chancellor of her university, Durham. Small world, eh?
