  1. Happy Birthday! :balloons:

  2. Just reporting that I bought a hardback copy of Pratchett's The Last Hero today as I didn't have it in my collection. I've never bought it because I thought it was too expensive for what it was, but I got it for
  3. This has been absolutely brilliant so far! I'm loving it. When I heard they were going to do five episodes showing over five consecutive nights, I didn't think I'd like it, but thank goodness they are because I couldn't wait a week between these episodes!

    Your first job

    My first job was when I was 13 and I worked in a baker's shop on Saturdays and in the school holidays. I was very shy, so it was a bit of an ordeal at first, but it did give me a bit more confidence. The best thing was that on closing on Saturdays, we got to take home all the unsold cream cakes that wouldn't keep until Monday! I have fond memories of cycling home with three boxes of cream cakes strapped to the back of my bike! Happy days! After that, I did work in retail for many years, but have got out of it now, thank goodness.
  5. Thanks! Hope you had a good day.

  6. So do I. I bet she'll be back though. And what was all that with telling Donna her father was called Nick? Doesn't she have any other details, such as a surname maybe? Although knowing her, probably not.

    Thanks Sedge! :) I've had a really nice birthday. Apart from the quiz fiddling my time again :mad: . May I refer you to your message of 11th September last year - and I quote - "I'm not sure, but I think there's a law against beating someone in a quiz on their birthday"! :lol:

  16. Wow, I never even thought about the series coming to an end! For some reason, I just thought he would carry on forever... I guess he is busy though - I heard he is writing the next one in the Hitchhikers Guide "trilogy". He's going to have to do a good job on that one to win over the fans (I wouldn't like to be in his shoes).

  19. I know! :lol: I got the first two books chosen fairly easily, but then thought I was going to have the usual problem wandering around the store for the next hour, trying to find another book I wanted that had the elusive "3 for 2" sticker on! But amazingly, I spotted Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere, and decided to take a chance on that (having fond memories of the BBC series). And I had a

  25. Thanks Michelle! :) I went out shopping for the day, supposedly for clothes. What did I come back with? Three books! Well, it was "3 for 2" at Waterstone's!
