Breakfast - toast with peanut butter and homemade pomegranate jam.
That sounds delish!
I've got cold cheese and tomato pasta for lunch.

Lucybird, I loved the Tom and Pippo books! What a lucky niece you have

Don't blame me if you don't think it is! It's all the other people who recommended it on here in the first place - they made me read it
Just finished it this morning, and it was brilliant.
I enjoyed the other two Du Maurier's that I've read, so I'm pretty certain that Rebecca won't be a let down! I had a few pounds on my Paypal account that I had forgotten was there, so I'm gonna get a copy from ebay to feel less naughty
I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. -
Still reading Rebecca. Just got to the end of chapter 19 and OH MY GOD, I never saw that coming
Chesil! Don't do that!
I now need to order that book immediately. I've managed to resist for so long - and then I saw your post -
Lion Country.

Those new breakfast biscuits (i.e rusks for grown-ups)

Another one! I prefer the Hendrix version of Bob Dylan's All Along the Watchtower.
-
I'm also tempted to say Hurt - I think the Johnny Cash version is more epic than the NIN original, although both are fantastic.
-
I have to say I prefer Nirvana's The Man Who Sold the World to Bowie's. Jeff Buckley's cover of Hallelujah to Leonard Cohen's original.

That's a sad film
It is. Some cheery bank holiday viewing to brighten up my afternoon

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

Not strictly eating anything, but I've got a double choc Mocha which is probably the equivalent of a big bar of chocolate
Yum -
I'd have to say Sir Terry. His voice is very familiar and comforting
I love Adam and Joe too chesil! I hope they don't go anywhere, but I suspect you may be right about R2

I finished City of Thieves and loved it. For some reason I'd been putting off reading it but I'm glad it managed to reach the top of Mt. TBR!
I'm now onto Great Expectations.

Paranormal Activity

Hi, Hannah! I love your username

Thanks, Charm and Frankie
I wasn't expecting to find such a bargain!I'm 70 pages into City of Theives and looking forward to reading more in bed tonight. Need to finish it so I can make a start on all those Dickens!

My mum won a copy of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. She doesn't want it so naturally handed it to me
This is a book I've been interesting in reading (what with it's popularity on here!), but not enough to buy as it's not typically my kind of thing. So I'm quite pleased. There was also a t-shirt which I'm not so sure about will have to try it on later! -
Roast beef and stuff

I saw it in 3D at the cinema and enjoyed it. I thought it was a pretty good cinematic experience with very impressive visuals. However, it definitely wasn't my film of the year and I know that some people were utterly unimpressed by it. So I guess you need to see it to make up your own mind.
I don't think I'd be overly interested in watching it when it's released on DVD as I can't see it being as effective on the small screen.

Nice review
I loved the Evil Dead films, mainly for Bruce Campbell's face alone I'd be interesting in reading it one day, it would be good to know more about the man behind the chin!

I've managed a shamefully small amount of reading of late
It's a slow work day so have had the pleasure of catching up on some today - just onto the second volume of Great Expectations. I'm enjoying it but it'll probably take me the rest of the month to finish at this rate! Still, that doesn't stop me from indulging in that age-old BCF hobby of buying books faster than you can read them!
