  1. Hi. :) I'm having a very lazy day today (have been avoiding my ironing and working on my family tree instead) and the children are being very good, despite the bad weather meaning they're stuck inside!

     

    How are you?

  2. Janet

    I can still see it in the 'debate' forum - I'm not sure why you can't?

     

    I can't post a url in a message so I've broken the link with a space between the www bit, but it should be there if you paste it.

    Let me know if you can't though, and I'll investigate further. :)

     

    I hope you're enjoying your scouting thing. :) I've just got in from work and am intending to have a lazy Sunday - a bit of ironing in front of a film, and some reading! :D

  3. Janet

    I could have sworn you had a 'looking for books set in Brighton' thread, but I've searched for it and can't find it. It's probably too late now anyway!

     

    Hope you're okay and enjoying the weather. x

  4. I have a friend in Aberdeen and she's always saying it's raining there - I think you must get most of Scotland's annual rainfall!

    I'm glad you had a good holiday. xx

  5. I have moved your promotional post - please do not repost it.

     

    I will be in touch.

  6. I hope you can see this image by pasting it - you might recognise it! ;-)

  7. I keep forgetting to check birthdays too!

     

    Thanks - I had a lovely birthday. :)

  8. I made some changes a while ago but I guess it's time I reviewed mine too.

     

    Anyway, how the devil are you? :) Did you go to see the film in the end?

  9. I posted in the Dorian thread but I thought I'd leave a message in case you don't see it, as I don't want you thinking badly of me.

     

    I wasn't criticising what the guy on the other forum said about the film - please don't think that. I'd never criticise someone for having an opinion. :)

     

    I can't post my explanation here as one can't post spoilers in a profile message but my WTF moment was about the film, not about his comments on it.

     

    Just wanted to clear that up. :)

  10. I refer to your post about the Kindle.

     

    There is already a thread on the forum - ht tp://www. bookclubforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=4282&highlight=kindle [please remove the spaces before pasting into your address bar] - where you can find out our members' views on the Kindle and other electronic reading devices.

    Thank you.

  11. I think the main difference with the shoes was that there were slightly 'platformed' at the front, and therefore made her taller. I don't think they were quite as plastic-y looking, either.

    I hope you get to see the Pride and Prejudice one - it's been my favourite of this season so far. :) xx

  12. I thought you'd probably already have it. :)

     

    I'm good thanks. How are things with you?

  13. I was very confused, because I assumed Katie was posting on my wall, not yours, and I wondered why she was asking how we knew one another - I thought she was being very nosy! :lol:

     

    She rocks - I love having her as a niece, and her fianc

  14. I'm *so* sorry, I missed youur birthday - I hope you had an awesome day. :friends0:

     

    ETA: I've madde a typo, but I can't see what I'm typing to correct i!

  15. I'm glad you're feeling better. :-)

    I'm good thanks. I should be doing housework but instead I'm procrastinating - I'm good at that!! :P

  16. I'm good thanks. :) I've had the house to myself all afternoon so I finished my book and then did some of my ironing whilst watching Bridget Jones 2. :D

     

    Are you okay?

  17. I'm good, thanks. :) You?

     

    It is quite pink, isn't it! :D I think it might be time for a change actually!

  18. I'm probably too late - you may already have seen this (and it's May!) but I saw this diary and immediately thought of you. :)

     

    ETA: I can't post a link, but it's this without the space in the www bit!

  19. I'm really enjoying it, thanks. :)

     

    I guess one usually only hears one side of the story so it's good to hear it from the German perspective. It's not an awful lot different to the suffering the British soldiers went through and I think one doesn't often think that these were also young boys a long way from home wondering why they were there too.

     

    I'm about half way through it so far.

  20. I'm so sorry, Diane - I missed your birthday. :(

     

    I hope you had a great day. :)

  21. I've just looked on your blog and the one I was thinking of is Footprints in the Sand by Sarah Challis. You gave that a good review and it sounds good too. :)

     

    I will have a look at both of them - thanks again. :)

  22. Janet

    I've just read your post about your so-called best friend and I wanted to send you a hug. :friends0:

     

    I've been in a similar situation fairly recently with a close friend and it hurts, but now I no longer think about it, so it will get easier. I hope you're okay. xxx

  23. Janet

    I've opened Persuasion - not that you asked me to, oh no - just thought I'd... er... let you know! ;)

     

    Nice to see you back. I have a few books that fit the 'decade' criteria already - an Orwell (from the 30s, iirc) and a Faulks from the 90s. :)

  24. I've removed your thread advertising your book on the Kindle as you have already posted about it in the Zombie thread and there is a post about it in the promotional forum.

    I hope you will become actively involved with the forum and not just make posts about your own work.

    Janet
