  1. Hello Frankie!!

     

    Just thought I'd drop you a quick message to catch up! How's everything with you? Have you made any more progress with Dead to the World?

     

    Hope you're grand :D xx

  2. Hello Genevieve!

     

    Thanks for that! You've put a smile on my face! :D

     

    I'm good! How are you? xx

  3. Hello Giulia!

     

    How are you? :D

     

    Just thought I'd better let you know that I haven't forgot about your quest for writingness. I've been super busy finishing my dissertation, but now I'm free of it and will get those thoughts emailed over to you asap (probably tomorrow if that's ok?) :D

     

    Hope you're grand my talented friend! xx

  4. Hello Miss Frankie!!

     

    Are you all set for Christmas? I've been running around like lunatic for the past few days and now I've just collapsed in a heap on the sofa with a cup of tea!

     

    You should definitely come to Newcastle if possible. The place in the centre of the city is Jesmond Dene which was created by Lord Armstrong as a wedding gift to his bride! How romantic is that! Well if you did actually decide upon it, I could point you in the direction of the better places to live and the good pubs! :D

  5. Hello Miss Frankie!!

     

    Sorry for the super late reply! Just got back from BF's parents house......I'm soooooo tired! Anyway I thought I'd just drop you a quick line to say I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth or been ran over by a bus etc! haa!:lol:

     

    I have LOTS to say about Marcus 'Wolverine he wishes' Smith or whatever he's called but my brain isn't quite working! :lol: I really don't like him and yeah......he thinks he's god's gift to the female race. Get the guy a mirror! yuck! :roll:

     

    Anyhoooo.....I'm off to bed asap. Hope you're well! Speak soon :D:mrgreen:

  6. Hello Mrs!! I'm good :D Just making up interviews as we speak :lol:

     

    I've had a very quick look into getting dissertations bound and pronta print do it for about

  7. Hello Mrs!!

     

    Haaa! I do the same....it's much more fun isn't it! Quinn is awful isn't he!! :irked: I thought the next book was due out this month so I went to Amazon to check the release date and it's not out until June!!! Devasted!!!

     

    It's such a relief to get the dissertation out the way isn't it. How did you get on with it? I've got one more hand in on Monday which is a group project and then we're all done and dusted. Scary or what!!! Eeeek! Have you heard any more about your next course?

  8. Hello Mrs!!

     

    I decided to actually do some reading instead of writing about reading for a change, but I can never stay away from the BCF for too long! :lol:

     

    That title is pretty vague.....there must be a million different topics to choose from! My BFs Mum works in child protection in Teesside and she often talks about children's rights with relation to that. It's pretty interesting but seems like a pretty huge topic.

     

    I'm so pleased for Joe bless him :D:D He's on Radio 1 in the morning between 7:20 and 8am. Pretty early but it'll be nice to hear what he's been up to since he won. I thought his version of the winners song was so much better than Olly's. Bless him!

     

    Glad to hear you're finished your work for uni Mrs! Hello Christmas!! :lol:

  9. Hello Mrs!!

    It's official! I hate this dongle!! :-(

    How are things with you? Hopefully good!

    I'm back to uni soon (got a place on the MA and they're funding it :-D) so I will actually have access to real life proper computers!! Yey! I feel the next email may be quite lengthy.....you might need to clear your diary f...

  10. Hello Mrs!

     

    Hope your work is going ok! Not long now until Christmas starts eh :D

     

    Thought I'd just drop you a quick message to say that I've just read an article in the Evening Chronicle about a man posing as a black cab driver who is picking up girls from town and you can probably guess the rest. Evil :censored: One girl lives along the road from me and is only 17! Poor thing!

     

    Anyway I thought I'd give you a heads up to be careful if you're out and about over Christmas. I always pre-book a taxi if I'm on my own and Ross can't get me but loads of my firends get black cabs after a night out.....it's scary:motz:

     

    On a lighter note.....GO JOE!!!!!!!!!! :D

  11. Hello Mrs!

     

    I've been having trouble posting replies to messages....this is forth time lucky and I keep forgetting to copy&paste! Argh!

     

    I'm looking forward to a supr hot summer. The hotter the better for me! I love being able to go out without a cardigan :D

     

    Tome Cruise is enough to let anything down! I much prefer Stuart Townsend although I'm too not sure he can act (which says a lot for Tom Cruise! :lol:)

     

    Slumdog is AMAZING!! I put off seeing it as I thought it wasn't my thing but it's the best movie I've ever seen. There's no subtitles or crazy dancing (until the end credits) and the child actors are brilliant! It's just a fantastic movie.....I can't recommend it highly enough :D:D You HAVE to see it as soon as you can :D xx

  12. Hey :D

     

    Well I think the best order to read them in is:

     

    The Constant Princess (I haven't read this but think it's about Katherine of Aragon coming to England to await her marriage to Prince Arthur and then Henry)

     

    The Other Boleyn Girl (Katherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn)

     

    The Boleyn Inheritance (Anne of Cleves and Katherine Howard)

     

    The Queens Fool (This book takes place after the death of Henry VIII and looks at the end of Edward VI's reign, then Mary I's reign and introduces Elizabeth I) I really loved this book :D

    The Virgin's Lover (Elizabeth I) I have this book but haven't read it yet so I'm not sure how good it is.

     

    The Other Queen (Mary Queen of Scots)

     

    I don't think she has written about Jane Seymour or Katherine Parr yet unfortunately. Hope this helps :D Enjoy!

  13. Hey Anisia!

     

    Thanks for my birthday message! I've just logged in to find quite a few messages which has really made my day!

     

    Thanks again! xx

  14. Hey Blackstar!

     

    Sorry for the super late reply! It's been my Boyfriend's birthday so I've been full of busy recently....eeeek!

  15. Hey Blackstar!

     

    Thanks for the friend request :D

     

    How are you? :D

  16. Hey Blackstar!

     

    Yeah he had a great time thanks. We've just got back from a weeks holiday to end it in style. I'm truely knackered now and need a long sleep! :sleeping-smiley-009

     

    I used to forget the books I wanted to read too but then I started to use the notepad in the User CP and never forget anymore (think I need to delete a few to make space though! eeeeek!) :lol:

     

    Hope you're well xxx :D

  17. Hey Book Fiend!

     

    Thanks for the request :D For some reason I though I already had you added :lol:

     

    Hope you're grand xx

  18. Hey Catwoman! Thanks for the birthday message! I'm super late in reply as I've been crazy busy with uni stuff :( but I'm pretty much done now! :D

     

    Thanks again! :D

  19. Hey Charm!

     

    How's you? I've realised that I've missed your birthday! Eeeeek! :hbsign::5birthday::balloons::sign0072::party: Hopefully adding every birthday emoticon will make up for it! Did you have a good day?

     

    I've been away from the forum for a few days sorting out my Boyfriend's birthday....feel like I need a week on a beach to recover :drama:

     

    Anyway I thought I'd pop in to say hello! Hope you're well xx

  20. Hey Charm!

     

    I've been away for a few days so I'm just catching up on everything. I'll post The Blue Nowhere off to Lexie tomorrow or Tuesday....thanks again! It was a great read! :D:D:D

  21. Hey Charm!

     

    Thanks for the birthday message! Sorry for the super late reply (I've been busy with the most boring uni assignment of my entire life! Boooooooo!)

     

    Thanks again xx

  22. Hey Charm!

     

    Yesterday evening I came home to Jeffrey Deaver!! Well......the book you sent (to find the actual Jeffrey Deaver sat on my sofa would've been probably quite alarming!! Haa!) :lol:

     

    Thanks so much again! I'll get it read and pop it in the post asap! :D:D:D

  23. Hey Cienwenn!

     

    How are you?

     

    We're just a forum of sugar mummys!! haa!! I was just talking about this to a woman I work with as she has a toy boy of 15 years!! (that's the age difference not his age.....now that would be strange!! haa!! :lol:)

     

    So which book do you have? Was it The Coffin Dancer or The Vampire Lestat? It'll be really good to hear other views as we're reading it....that's when a person is most enthusiastic about a book isn't it :D

  24. Hey CW!

     

    It's getting there. I've handed in the first part of my dissertation proposal so I know what I'm doing with that, but in a few weeks I've got to have a mock interview in front of the rest of the course!!!!!! Eeeeeeeeeek! I think I'd rather just throw myself in the river and be done with it!! haa! Everyone else has to do it too but it just seems like the lecturers have ot together to think of new ways to torture us this year......Mortifying!

     

    How are you? xx

  25. Hey Dimitra! Thanks for the friend request! :D

     

    Hope you're well!
