Hi Paual. Just popping by to say hello, because I've not done so for some time now. It's omebody's birthday on Monday! Woo-hoo!

Hope you're really well. x

I've just noticed - The Little Lost Girls? What's this? A book by old Kerley that I haven't read??? Where do I find this? What's the matter with me???

Eeee - I've taken a Kalm with me cup of tea, so I'll be alright shortly...

Xx

Hello mate. Just thought I'd pop in to say 'yo'. How're things?

Interesting, CW, on your 'about me' bit. I've got a goo, so I thought I'd contact you.

How're tings in your 'hood, Blood? Well chocolate, I is hoping, innit, guy.

See how easily I slip into modern day youth vernacular. You're impressed, I know.

Hiya Echo. Many thanks. How are things over your neck of the woods, as they say?

Thinking about it, I'm not entirely sure why they say it or, for that matter, who they are. Maybe it's a conspiracy or something.

I hope you're very well, friend of mine. Take good care. X

Yo, Rach. Just dropping in to say "Yo!", so - by anyone's standards - I can safely say that I have accomplished that which I set out to achieve. Would you not agree, my friend?

How are you? What, as they say, is new with you?

Hoping this finds you super-well. X

A three day week! Sounds magic! Happy Thanksgiving, Lady.

Actually (and this is really poor form for me), I don' quite understand what Thanksgiving is. I see Americans celebrating it in films and such like, but have never asked anyone what one celebrates and where it comes from.

How incredibly uneducated is that!?! Maybe you could tell me? Sorry for being such an ignoramus.

Aloha. Just popping in to say hi. There you are. Hoping you are ever so well.

Afternoon (or, I guess, morning!)

How are you doing? Hope you're okay.

Hello.

Aloha. Wicky wicky and all that jazz. It has been too long since last we spoke. What's new with you, Lou? (I know your name isn't Lou, but it rhymed. So there.)

Ho hum. Crazy days, eh? Crazy days.

Afternoon, Kelly! Just that, really. X

Sarah. Hello. It's been about...hmmm...yes, about ONE THOUSAND YEARS since we last communicated. I have been remiss. For this, I apologise and wish to seek forgiveness. In order to achieve this end, I wish to tell you a joke that might hopefully make you chuckle. It is as follows:-

Q: How does one know that elephants have been hiding in one's fridge?

A: There are footprints in the butter.

Q: But why is it that one can never find elephants hiding in one's fridge?

A: Because they're really good at it.

How are you, Sarah? How is life treating you at this time? Me? I've been hiding from almost everything. Even books. Yep. Crazy days.

Take good care, my friend.

Yeah, a bit grim it has been. Two of my friends died within two days of each other of cancer - one we knew about, one only told his wife. I had to grass on some of my colleagues the same week as they were telling each other the most appalling racist jokes to each other and extolling the virtues of being a member of the BNP. In a school. Where kids are. You wouldn't believe it.

My brother sent me the entire collection of Buffy on DVD for my birthday last year. Brother's can be really nice sometimes, can't they!

(I hate the way it says 36 in brackets in that info box - it just rubs it in!)

Have a good day. X

Morning, mate. You're up early (as I am - not well, coughing and spluttering like an old codger, calling in sick as soon as my boss is up).

How're things in your part of the world?

Katrina, I am terribly sorry to read your news. My thoughts are with you right now. There are many here that will be available to talk if you need us. Take care in this appalling time for you.

Hiya Scarlette. I'm doing okay, thank you. It's been a busy old time for yours truly of late, but there you go.

Have you had your hair done? From your photo, it looks like a great cut and a smashing colour! I can't do a thing with mine (see my own photo...)

How're things with you?

Hello there. Is your avatar a picture of Richard Burton taken from the film The Medusa Touch?

Just curious. Hoping this finds you very well.

Oooh, False Memory, great book! How are you finding it? Have you read any other Dean Koontz novels? Who else do you like? What's the square root of 5,894,762? You do realise I was being silly with that last question, don't you? And with that one?

Hope you're well.

Good morning, ii. Just wanted to say 'ayup', as I have not graced the site for some time now. I enjoyed your post on the book discussion to be held in a fortnight. It made me chuckle (but, to be quite fair, I am often amused by your writings, it has to be said).

I hope this finds you in the rudest of health and the best of moods. Enjoy your weekend.

Ach, I've been having a truly cack time of it, of late. Friends dying, work being pooey (racist colleagues!!!), lots of other bits-and-bobs going on, and the added pressure of knowing that I've got to do something that will hurt several people, but...well, you know the thing. Have I got the guts? Is there the courage within me? We'll have to see.

I was born three days after you (well, give or take a few years!). Did you have a good time? I worked and hid. In that order. x

By the way, who is the gorgeous redhead in the picture? Can I have her number?

Hiya. I've been hiding for roughly one thousand years in a cave in my living room. Banks is, as you say, quite brilliant. I really loved The Steep Approach to Garberdale too. The only one I didn't like was A Song Of Stone, but one out of all those isn't a bad ratio.

How are things with you?

I hope this finds you well. Take care. x

Aloha, CW. S'been a while, because I'm rubbish. My head is currently lodged in a bucket of cold water by way of atonement.

How are you? X

Erm...missed your birthday, 'cos I'm super-cack. So, very belated Happy Birthday's to you. Hoping you're tip top.
