Hi again all, thanks for the welcomes The goats fine Chrissy

I think it was a well made thriller, good acting and directing and even though I thought the ending was a a bit weak, (not so much the outcome but the climax of it), I hope they make more with the same team

I'm mick, I live on a dilapidated (but beautiful) little farm with my animals on the East Coast. I read everything from Crime to History to Non fiction. My favourite author changes by the month. I like playing guitar, growing my own veg and at the moment I'm half way through writing a screenplay using Final Draft that may never see the light of day.

I thought it was a disappointing ending. I heard Phil Davis on the radio a week back say there could be a follow up. Might have been wishful thinking on his part. I guess it could be same team different cases.

1) I've never had a long distance relationship 2) I've never had a middle distance relationship 3) I've never had a short distance relationship 4) I think I will stop at 4, I have just noticed a pattern here

I have a drawer full of stuff I've bought from them that I probably will never use. Still, whatever makes you happy i guess

Oh me too, spend far too much money in them

Beans on toast or send out for a takeaway hmmmmmm I'll toss a coin Heads it is, call the China Dragon

Penguins are cute, but watch them carefully, they huddle together and lampoon the visitors at zoos

I only went on amazon to order one book I ended up ordering six and placing three more on my wishlist Still, it's raining outside, that's my excuse

Will Self and a dictionary

This question I asked is costing me a lot Be worth it though to find a few funny books. Not had much luck with finding any before now.

My theory with the pillows was to place three ontop of each other so as to make one big fluffy pillow. Nope, now all I have is a mound of unfluffy flat pillows .

Thanks Cabrasopa, have ordered that as well from amazon. Will come off amazon now as I seem to have to order every book I look at on there.

Thanks Poppy, will try Blott on the Landscape too

I tend to agree, I've never actually found a book that makes me laugh. I will try The Vesuvius Club and The Devil In Amber by Mark Gatiss though. thanks mick

Agree about the fluffy pillows Chrissy. Mine are never fluffy. Whenever I see anyone propped up in bed on a TV show their pillows are always fluffy, mine are always flat.

Hi all, I know humour is very subjective but can anyone suggest a 'funny' book. Preferably dark humour, but really any books that have made you giggle. thanks mick

Our bass player was a music teacher. Enjoyed every minute of it Cadenza. I started out playing night club venues in a trio. Kind of boring music but it paid the bills. Then I played in a rock band for a few years, and then formed a blues band. Nothing big time but we always had work and it was better than 9-5 work for me. I saved a little then bought a farm. Now I'm thinking of getting back into music, but just for fun this time.

I played guitar and sung in a few bands some years back, earned a living for a while, was nice working at something you enjoy, and I've just started to get into the music again. Love to be able to play the sax well.
