I remember you searching for her Kylie, poor Kiesha, I hope her so called mother and step~father get what they deserve. I am so sorry Kylie for the sad news.

:friends3: Chrissy I was telling Frankie earlier than I was out hanging the washing in the backyard and Quinn was sitting at the kitchen window, which her eyes closed, enjoying the wind on her face, you would have loved to have seen her Chrissy I think. Kylie ~ How's Jasper?

Diana was called the Princess of Wales because Charles is the Prince of Wales, because the Queen formally invested the title onto him, that's all I remember from wikipedia, sorry hen

Great review Lucy, I felt the same way about the book and thank you! I couldn't remember the other person's name who makes up the funny little bundle called 'Pittacus Lore', I remembered James Frey Great review Lucy, I enjoyed it too, tell me did you like the Sheepman?

Hi Abby, how are you? I asked myself the same thing today and then spent most of the afternoon reading about it on wikipedia, I think Prince Philip is called Prince Philip because he is 'The Queen's Consort', he would never be King because he is not part of the British royal line because he is from Greece, and he has Danish/Greek heritage but he has British maternal grandparents on the Mountbatten line.

Great news about your concert Diane, I bet you can't wait! I am hoping that The Black Keys come back to Scotland this year.

Chrissy, I am so sorry about your cat, what a kindness your neighbour did :hug:

The Prestige

Of course Jasper cares hen, cats are just the kings and queens of indifference! Quinn barely acknowledges me but she always runs to the door to come and see me when I come home Hamlet is so cute Abby!, I love hamsters

I'm looking forward to see Christoph Waltz in it, he is a great actor, and even though he was somewhat evil, I loved him in 'Inglourious'

Oh that's nice Ben Thanks Kylie its the first time RP has been my wallpaper in a long time.

Brilliant answer Shirleyz

Good stuff Bobblybear, looking forward to reading your thoughts when you read it.

I read it and really enjoyed it, excellent story, great characters, I found it quite a vibrant book, here is my review from the first time I read it ~ 'Water for Elephants' was recommended to me by two friend of mines and it took me awhile to get around to buying it and eventually reading it, so thank you to my friends for the recommendation because (and believe me it deserves the capital letters) I LOVE THIS BOOK, I have never been so engrossed in a story since 'A Wild Sheep Chase' by Haruki Murakami and have never loved a character more than Jacob Jankowski, the story is told brilliantly, visually stunning, you can imagine the sights and sounds of the circus, Rosie the elephant, the main heroine of the story, is described so well and despite the fact she is a elephant she will always be a beloved character for me, she is shown in a way that despite her size she is delicate, loving, funny and stubborn. As mentioned the characters are written well, it feels effortless to read them, you feel the love that author has for her characters and you will share it because in their own way they are all amazing people and animals, the story of the circus is told from a historical point of view, many of the tales shared in the story actually happened in various circuses (one example being, the lion and a dishwasher hiding together under a sink). An amazing story of love, courage and how much circuses were a part of American history. I know I will read 'Water for Elephants' again and again.

Thanks hen Looking forward to reading yours

^This is a great list Frankie, do you mind if I take a copy?, thank you
