R.L. Royle

Posted in General, tagged , , on November 27, 2007 | 5 Comments »

It’s happened again, I’ve found another great author! Rebecca Royle contacted me, and very kindly sent me a copy of both her books.
Lucy’s Monster, her debut, is a dark tale of major celebrities, dealing with undiagnosed schizophrenia and drug abuse. It builds to an amazing crescendo half way through, then leads you to the touching [...]

28 Weeks Later

Posted in General, tagged on November 27, 2007 | 3 Comments »

I really enjoyed ‘28 Days Later’.. great opening, storyline etc. ‘28 Weeks Later’ also had great reviews, and today we finally got to watch it.
Well, I think I must be watching a different film to the reviewers. They’ve just tried to make this film as gory as they can, to the point of being ridiculous.

I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!

Posted in General, tagged , , , on November 16, 2007 | 4 Comments »

Ok, so this may make me sound a little sad, but I’m loving this program, as always! I’m not sure about the ‘celebrity’ bit this year, as I hardly know any of them.. but they’re fun, just the same.
My favourite? She can be annoying, but Janice Dickinson can be so funny. She doesn’t care what [...]

Motorbike rant!

Posted in General on November 14, 2007 | 4 Comments »

Did I miss the part in the Highway Code where motorbikes have completely different rules to car drivers? Last night, as I drove along at the correct speed limit, I had a motorbike drive right up my backside, then as soon as he could, her overtook me, and shot off into the distance!
It suddenly hit [...]

Why?

Posted in General, tagged , on November 9, 2007 | 4 Comments »

It’s happened ~ we’ve reached that point in Amy’s life where this is her favourite word! No matter what we tell or ask her, we get the response of “Why?” And even when we tell her why, that gets followed by.. yes, yet another “Why?”.
Argh!!

Girls With Taste!

A while ago, Bethany decided that she liked The Beatles, with Please Please Me being her favourite album of theirs.
Today I put on one of my Kinks’ albums.. Amy immediately started trying to sing along, and the announced she liked these songs!
What can I say.. they have their mum’s good taste! <grin>

Raven Hart

Following on from last post, there is another author that I wish to share with you all.. Raven Hart.
My friend Cindy told me about a vampire book that a friend of hers had written, and she had loved. That isn’t Cindy’s ‘thing’, so I was interested to see what it was she liked.
She then sent [...]

Since running my book forum, I have been privileged to connect with various writers and authors.. some well known, others not. What continues to amaze me is that I’ve read some pretty rubbish books in my time, and yet there are some great writers out there, who either can’t get published, or can’t get that [...]

Back Online

Posted in General, tagged , on November 2, 2007 | 1 Comment »

If you recall, when we moved in, my ADSL order was delayed, because there was a block on the line. That block was the previous ADSL.
When I was informed that the line was clear, I gave my provider the go ahead, and mine was set up.
It would appear that the order to remove the previous [...]
