The never ending search for stuff to read on the flight(s). I've been putting this off (and so has Sarah).
Steve Jobs' Bio, by Walter Isaacson is, of course, for a geek, a must read. So I bought that. Then I got hold of "Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know", Ranulph Fiennes' Autobio.
But what next? A bit of serendipitous browsing led me to Captain Cooke's Journals (we're walking from Ship Cove via Furneaux something to somewhere else - Queen Charlotte Sound was clearly used a fair bit during the early explorations - Furneaux commanded HMS Adventure, which accompanied Cooke in 1773) so Project Gutenberg delivered those for not very much and bits of them will be well worth reading.
Don't feel I'm quite there though....
