THE Reverend Fred Nile - possibly the only Australian politician to thank God before thanking his voters - yesterday bade farewell to the NSW Parliament as he readied himself for a run to the Senate.

On My Bedside Table - Frank Coates

I like to be a bit more organised, so I only have two books beside my bed: The White Nile, by Alan Moorehead (which I'm re-reading), and Journey to the Source of the Nile, by Christopher Ondaatje. I'm flicking between the two books, which is a bit unusual for me, but they provide a different perspective of the same subject, so it's quite interesting.
