In reply to Moacs:
I received the book today - thanks very much for your generous prize! I'm in the middle of Thief of Time at the moment, but it will be next on the list. It seems to be a well-written and very personal account of his life.
I felt the need to give something back, so I made a contribution to the Chris Lewis (Patterdale MRT) fund. It now has quite a good amount of money in it owing to some amazing efforts last year, but having looked after the affairs of parents in full-time care, I'm aware that more is needed.
