High-kicking culture

I am enjoying reading Crusaders, Richard Kelly's gritty saga of politics and community in the North-East of the mid-90s – that is, the 14 pages I have read so far. However, I am simultaneously reading (I have an English degree, this is a skill they teach you) All Balls And Glitter, the autobiography of Craig Revel Horwood. Amazingly, the pages of this just seem to fly by in comparison.

This is my favourite sentence so far:

'The one highlight of my spell as a trainee cook was making a dessert for Suzi Quatro.'
