baw 4,360 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Walkabout. Read it at school, about a teenage girl and her little brother in Australia. Their father runs them into the middle of nowhere, goes mental and shoots himself. They're on their own struggling until they find an aborigina on his walkabout. It was a good read. I saw the film a good few year ago and f**k me, it was like a porno this aborigina fantasizing over this long legged blond in a short skirt, I couldn't believe it was the same as the book is read Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robbo 828 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Read kes and Macbeth for my English literature exam. Only lived a couple of miles from where he gets his bird from. When the film came out out everybody who went birds egging knew the building. There was a queue to climb it.lol . Janet and john were my primary school reading books. I think you're showing your age boys admitting to reading these. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
