  2. Frankie had a blast in Estonia, it was very pretty, the language is beautiful (and amusing to us Finns), and I had very good company. Spent a bit too much money... Tomorrow Frankie goes to see Korn!!!

      Okay, I've arrived and I'm safe so far :P It's 10 PM over here, I think the sun's just set down but it's still as light as by day. I think I'm off the sleepy land now. Nighty night! :)

      Do they do any celebrating there today,such as fireworks, a day off school/work Parades ?

    4. frankie

      Thank you guys! :) We do have a day off from school/work. Otherwise it's a peaceful sort of celebration. We still remember the war and think of all the soldiers who died. It's also winter in here, so that puts a damper on things as well. It's certainly nothing like the fourth of July in America, for example. Mostly we visit cemeteries, light candles, eat well and watch the presidential gala on TV :) I like it that way. It's a day of peace in the otherwise hectic December...

  6. Joining a 'panel' later this evening to write reviews of five songs selected by organizers of a hi-fi 'convention'. Am so nervous, it's going to be so odd and different from writing book reviews.

      Relax and have fun, Frankie.. :)

      Beforehand friend said that reviews are to be written down on paper and I don't have to talk infront of the other people, and that was the only reason why I decided to go for it. And yet they went for oral reviews instead, and it was pretty scary for me, as I've always hated being the center of attention. I survived, though! :D

  7. I just noticed your 'member description' :D Oh June, you cracked me up! And you are no ugly bag, you're a beautiful bag! :) xo

      Thank you ! I didn't really mean that I was an ugly bag - it's actually a q

      Sorry, hit the return key at the wrong time ! I was saying that it's actually a quote from Star Trek whereby an unknown alien life form is trying to describe humankind. It just seems humorous.

      LOL I am pretty sure I remember that episode....the floating robot thingy, yes?

      Hi Frankie

      I hope you don't mind me dropping by . I noticed your post on the main page about the snow . I don't know much about your weather over that way .Is it cold most of the time,and do you have snow a big part of the year ? We usually get our first snowflakes late Otober, but the first snow that really sticks to the ground is usually later in November .

      I detest snow, and the cold and I dread getting big snowfalls, luckily in the south of England we don't get it too often, but once is too much for me, brrrr!!!!

  13. Just realised what day it was yesterday: Happy Birthday, Brian! :)

    1. Brian.

      Brian.

      Thanks. I just have to decide what books to treat myself to now, life is tough :D

       

      Another year older though which isn't a good thing.

    2. frankie

      frankie

      If that's your biggest worry, you're well off :D If you get depressed about being another year older, just remember: you'll always be older than me :P

  14. Welcome, thunder!! I've missed you :)

    1. Devi

      Devi

      Its thundering here too :)

    2. frankie

      frankie

      Oh wow Devi, we have very different seasons going on and yet we have the same weather :D

  15. I see you are in the middle of creating your reading log for next year, I wish I hadn't noticed, now I can't wait to see what it'll be like, and I'm supposed to go to bed to read and sleep :D

    1. Brian.

      Brian.

      That's sweet of you :D

       

      You should go and read and sleep because it will take me at least another hour before it's getting anywhere near done. You can have something to look forward to in the morning then :P

    2. frankie

      frankie

      Haha. You're right, I'm going. (It makes it particularly long-lasting a task because you can't post a new post until the 4 minute period's gone, as you know... Well at least you could work on your first few posts while waiting for the 4 minutes to pass, wink wink! :D Okay okay, I'm going! Happy construction :))

  16. Ilosaarirock has now, at least sort of, begun. First flat guest is over, wohoo! Rock on.

  17. I love it how there's a 'Manage Friends' in on the options on here. How could I manage them? They're such an odd and wild bunch :D

    1. Charm

      Charm

      Too right, I'd waste more time looking for the 'off' switch on most of you! Best just leave well alone hehe

      :D I'll take them all from you if I can!
  20. I don't want to post on your 2012 reading log yet, because I fear you might not welcome any intrusions yet (except for Janet's, that was a brilliant one :D), so I had to come here and say: I was laughing out loud reading the description in the beginning of your posts :D You are one funny gal <3

    1. frankie

      frankie

      *descriptions!

    2. poppyshake

      Glad I made you laugh Frankie and you're more than welcome there - I've finished blethering now. It was supposed to be serious but it just descended into madness. I was telling my niece about my motivational thoughts and she has challenged me to put them into practice in 2012 ... oh boy .. wish I had just written 'read more Fforde' now :)

  21. Off to Christmas sauna! :) Merry Christmas everyone! xo

  22. "Which book would you take with you on a deserted island, frankie?" -"Well the BCF chat room of course!"

  23. Hello Jänet dear! I read your post on the RC thread, concerning voddy's quick question, and I just wanted to come here and give you a huggle and say I hope you feel better! *huggles* You didn't sound patronizing at all or anything :)

    1. frankie

      frankie

      (I wanted to comment on here instead of the thread because your comments weren't directed towards me and it's really none of my business, but I just wanted to have my two cents in anyway, hehe!)

  24. Hello! Yes, you started your Lovecraft in the Horror section, but I merged it with the older, already existing Lovecraft thread, which happened to be in the Fiction section, and that's why it was there for a while. It'll now stay in th Horror section, and I will go and delete you and I's brief discussion on what happened from there as it's unrelated to the topic, and let people continue discussing Lovecraft :)
