Where do you get your books?
Suzanna Addison replied to ~Andrea~'s topic in General Book Discussions
Just got some from Fantasy and Sci-Fi bookclub. Two Jo Graham books and Ursula Le Guin. -
What is the Worst Film You Have Ever Seen?
Suzanna Addison replied to supergran71's topic in Music / TV / Films
Run Lola Run was pretty weird but I loved it ... that's my only experience of German movies. I didn't like Shark Tale, not sure if I said that already. Didn't like Men In Black 2 either! -
A Question for NON Poetry Lovers
Suzanna Addison replied to BookJumper's topic in Poetry, Plays & Short Stories
I think it's because poetry is actually a personal experience unlike prose. I didn't really like poetry until I read Dulce Est Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen. Before then I had absolutely no interest in poetry - aside from the odd comic poem. It's finding the right one for you - like a life time partner. My sister doesn't like poetry very much but the Moth one I shared on here she liked and could understand the 'skill that went into it'. Which I think is strange as she's a song writer ... and to me, songs are poetry - Just got to listen to some Beatles lyrics and Nightwish lyrics to see that. -
I love pizza! Especially home-made from base up!
-
Oooh, I love Dracula, it's absolutely wonderful and scary but a touching love story nonetheless I just hope you haven't seen the Gary Oldman film first because that was a case of fanfiction rather than adaptation!
-
I just got bored with it! I began to get fed up with it. To me the story finished when the Princess was named after that I felt it was dragging - Never Ending definitely what it said on the title, and I just got annoyed with the characters.
-
I couldn't get into it but how about NeverEnding Story? That is a story of a boy who influences the plot as he reads. I got half way through and had to stop as I couldn't like it - my sister loves it!
-
Mmmm. I love Chicken Korma! We had Roast Chicken and Roast potatoes last night for dinner, not a big fan of roasts.
-
I've heard ITV are thinking of scrapping Lewis - which would be a shame as that is an excellent show and a worthy follow up from Morse. I hope ITV change their minds and scrap Help! I'm a (Z LIST) Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Personally half the celebs on the show I want to KEEP in an Ozzy Jungle!

Bodyguard the one with Whitney Huston and Kevin Costner. Ferris Buellers Day Off ... probably controversial but I just found it annoying. -
I must admit I can't stand the Simpsons but I do like Futurama. I would watch this!
-
Hiya, FIGI I just want to welcome you and be the first to place a message on your board. Thank you for liking my poems. I don't write much poetry anymore though I wish I did.

My top 5 faves Nightwish both singers Pink Floyd Duran Duran Evanescence Lacuna Coil There are LOADS more but I can't think of them right now!

Bookjumper: Normally I like books to be a little bit less flowery with more action at the beginning - Ill-Made Mute changed my mind on an adventurous high octane beginning and, actually, it paid off in the end because the atmosphere she creates as the trilogy carries further on is absolutely magnificent. The Lady of Sorrows is really the one full of adventure and action and the language less flowery and the Battle of Evernight has an excellent conclusion. Please, stick to it ... the trilogy is WELL WORTH IT in the end! And I'm normally the sort of person that stops reading if a story is boring at the beginning. Cecilia Dart-Thornton is my exception!
I put this in a forum but I wanted to get the point across... also I feel like the only person who's ever even HEARD of her!
-
I would like a special one and a half hour special of Friends and what they're doing now. See what kind of mum and dad Monica and Chandler are ... Are Ross and Rachel finally in a proper settled relationship without all the emotional we-were-on-a-break stuff! Is Phoebe a mum to her own set of twins? And has Joey finally met a good Italian girl feeding him properly? There are LOTS of possibilities for a special reunion!
-
Four? Mine's more like four hundred. After I read Worst Jobs in History I think I'll read another book I've had for years... The Pastons: Diaries of a family that lived through the Wars of the Roses. I need to do research for a book I've been writing for ages.
-
Ooooohhhh yes, Heather, thanks for that. This evening my parents and I watched three episodes of Season Two. The one where he fell for the doctor - it had my favourite Abby/Ducky moment of all time ... even my mum reacted to this: "Well if this doesn't work out then I am still available!" mmmm Yes PLEASE! Wear your work clothes, Ducky!
-
Well I've had some really scary horrible bad experiences with big dogs. Give me a Jack Russell or a King Charles Spaniel. The only big dog I'd EVER own are Border Collies because they are like giant spaniels to me ... sooooo cute!
The only other big dog I am not afraid of are St. Bernards. I think they're soo lovely!
-
That was cute. My late dog had a lot to put up with when we got three kittens towards the end of his life. Though two of them LOVED him and wanted him to play with them the other one just ignored him!
-
Nonsense, my dog died recently I feel like I've lost a brother and not a dog. I have three young cats. Picture will come shortly. I am fifty/fifty, I love both cats and dogs ... only small to medium sized dogs, I don't like dogs higher than my knee and absolutely scared of black labradors.

I am actually designing a garden for me - I am calling it Nightwish as it's going to be full of dark purple/black and white plants.

Well a very belated welcome to you Naivion - judging by your posts you are already enjoying this forum so ... continue enjoying, and David Eddings is WELL WORTH reading!

I was born in Luton Bedfordshire. Lived in Dunstable for the first seven years of my life, about four months before I was eight we moved to the Forest of Dean where I lived for seventeen years of my life - the happiest nine of those in a town called Lydney... *sigh* miss that place soo much. Now I live in Wales - Brecon Beacons. Goodness knows where I'll die!!!!

Did anyone watch the One Show earlier? The delightfully charming and absolutely drool worthy David McCallum was on - they spoke a lot about NCIS even showed a clip from Season Five!!!! I am watching Season Two at the moment. The first episode. I needed David McCallum ... I am feeling poorly. Apparently they are doing NCIS: LA style too!!!!
