  Shitty Breaks - A Celebration of...

  Adios Paris. Hello Wolverhampton.
  
  
  
  Not everything that glitters is gold - which is why Ben Aitken gave London the cold shoulder and went to Preston instead.
  
  
  
  Hailing from Portsmouth, Ben knew from experience that unfashionable places could be quietly brilliant. So, over the course of a year, the author of A Chip Shop in Poznan and The Gran Tour visited twelve of the least popular spots in the UK and Ireland for a city break. The motivation wasn't to take the mickey or stick the boot in, but to seek out the good stuff, to uncover the gems, to have a nice time. By doing so, he hoped to demonstrate that anywhere - like anyone - can be interesting and nourishing and enjoyable if approached in the right fashion.
  
  
  Ben went skiing in Sunderland, to the football in Wrexham, and fell in love with Dunfermline. He kissed an alpaca in Bradford, suffered jellied eels in Chelmsford, and had more craic in Limerick than was wise. The upshot is a celebration of the underdog; a love letter to the wrong direction; and evidence that there's no such thing as a shitty break. What's more, by spreading its affection beyond the usual suspects (which are often overdone and overpriced), Shitty Breaks promotes a less expensive and more sustainable brand of travel.
  
  
  By ghosting Bath and giving Lisbon the boot, the book champions the unsung in an algorithmic, over-signposted world dominated by celebs and hotspots. Cheeky weekend in Milton Keynes anyone?

He was instrumental in popularizing basketball and the NBA, becoming a global cultural icon.

Known for his athleticism, competitiveness, and game-winning ability, Jordan is considered one of the greatest of all time. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Michael Jordan was born in Brooklyn, New York, on February 17, 1963, but his family moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, in 1968. He played basketball, baseball, and football at Emsley A. Laney High School, initially being deemed too short for the varsity basketball team. 
    
  During his sophomore year of high school, Jordan was only 5 feet 11 inches tall and was cut from the varsity basketball team, but after growing four inches the following summer, he made the team. As a senior, he averaged 26.8 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 10.1 assists per game and was selected for the McDonald's All-American Game. 
    
  Jordan's NBA debut with the Chicago Bulls was on October 26, 1984, where he scored 16 points, and a ticket stub from that game sold for $264,000 in 2021, setting a record for a collectible ticket stub. In his rookie season, he averaged 28.2 points per game and helped the Bulls reach the playoffs for the first time since 1981.

  Geoff Nicholson has been walking his whole life. Wherever he is and wherever he goes in the world, he walks and writes about what he sees and feels. Here he reflects on the nature of walking, why we do it, how it benefits us and, in some cases, how it can damage and even destroy us. Geoff's recent diagnosis with a rare, incurable form of cancer has made him all too aware of his own mortality. Sooner or later there will be a last step, a last excursion, a final drift, for him just as there will be for all of us. Geoff vows to continue to walk for as long as he can.
  This moving, vital book describes his own walks and relates them to the walks of street photographers, artists and writers, such as Garry Winogrand, Diane Arbus, Sophie Calle, Jorge Luis Borges and Virginia Woolf, among many others. Walking on Thin Air is a book about mortality and, above all, a celebration of being alive.
