Last night's Eastenders. The only soap I can stand to watch anymore
He he he my OH watched an advert for it and it said watch out for someone you know, and he watched the whole hour long show waiting to see someone who hasn't been on there for a long time. By the end he was like 'there wasn't anyone new on it!' only to realise the advert was for the sing-a-long at the end!
You should have seen his face! -
I watched some of The Inbetweeners, again (I've watched the two series at least three times) and it still made me laugh so hard I nearly wet my pants!

I started and finished Flirt by L K Hamilton, I know you should judge on quality and not quantity but it was so short! I also read some of Poe's poems.

I went to my sisters last night and we watched The Spiderwick Chronicles and Demolition Man.
Spiderwick Chronicles are pretty good for a childrens film and it's been so long since I watched Demolition Man it was almost like watching a new film, I'd forgotton how funny it was.

had to draw a line when our builder told us the weight of the books could be damaging the structure of the building.
I generally read several books at once and go through about 10 a week.
WOW!
& Impressed!
And you still have time for a job? I thought I did well last month when I read 12 in a month! -
Didn't get much reading done last night, went round to my sisters and watched films instead
but did manage to read The Oblong Box by Poe. -
You have to ask for it .. but you don't have to buy anything (if you have a card).
Thanks! I will have to get one the next time I'm in town!

I love the cover to The Stand, but the limited edition's price tag is a bit steep. It was advertised, back when it came out, on the back of an issue of Skeleton Crew magazine, and I debated whether to buy it or not. I'm kicking myself that I didn't spend the money back then...
That is a beautiful book!
I really like Diana Wynn Jones's book covers they're so bright and pretty, I can't help but have a look example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Enchanted-Glass-Diana-Wynne-Jones/dp/0007320787/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1266479813&sr=8-1

Books Quarterly is pretty good, you can get it from Waterstone's for a few pounds (if you're in the UK, that is) but it's free if you have a Waterstone's card which is also free, so how can you lose?
When I last went in Waterstones I paid and showed my card and I didn't get a magazine! Do you have to be signed up for a certain amount of time or have to ask for it or anything? Or have I been diddled?

Honestly if I found a character just like myself we would not get on. I am always right, you see which means we'd end up have discussions about who is the rightest!
One of my favourite characters is Jack Torrence from The Shining and I hope we wouldn't get on!

I finished Bitten and it was really good. I just loved Ellena she's definately a lady you don't want to mess with! Will be getting the next one in the series soon.
My sister's leant me a true story called How Could She? and I don't think I want to read it, stuff like that always makes me cry.
I will read some more Poe tonight I think.

Apart from the occasional Waterstone's bookseller, everyone I've ever tried striking up a literary conversation with in a bookshop has looked at me as if I were mental maybe I should get a t-shirt done that says 'TALK TO ME ABOUT BOOKS' or something, so the people who do want to talk about books but are afraid of being taken for people who are mental would know I'd never think such a thing... what d'you guys reckon?
'Waste' and 'books' don't belong in the same sentence
remember what Desiderius Erasmus, quirky theologian of genius, said all those centuries ago: 'When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes.'I think all bookie people should have that t-shirt!!!
:lol:at that quote!
