  1. That I can claim back money from the Inland Revenue for cleaning my uniforms at home!
  2. I'm really struggling with Never Let me go. I'm feeling a little down at the moment and I think I've just chosen the wrong time to read it. I don't really want to give up on it, but I feel I should be enjoying it and I'm not, so I think I'm going to stop and come back to it at a later date.
  3. If i remember rightly i bought a copy of Black Dahlia thinking it was the other film with Josh Harnett I know what you mean about feeling like the odd one out. All my female friends think there's something wrong with me!
  4. I'm just over half way through Never Let Me go ~ Kazuo Ishiguro I've never read anything quite like it.

  8. Hi Stephanie I'm really looking forward to Let The Right One In. If it's half as good as the film was then I know i'm going to love it. I'm just sorry I didn't know there was a book first and I would have done it the other way round!
  9. I'm really looking forward to seeing this. I saw a trailer for it and was quite surprised to see Mariah Carey looking a lot different than usual!
  10. Thanks Tunn! I think I will make The Little Stranger next then, i've heard such good things about it! I hope you enjoy The Road and A Thousand Splendid Suns as much as I did

  14. I'm glad i wasn't the only one then It was very clever, wasn't it, a bit too clever for me though . We watched the extra features afterwards and apparently a lot of the story was made up as they went along. That explains a lot
