  1. Off to see The Pineapple Thief tonight ... Excited! :)

  2. Oh, and whatever you do, please please please try and go to a Rush gig when they tour over here next year. It might be the last ever chance, and it'd be tragic if you never got to see the best live band on the planet!

  3. Okay, I'm already afraid on behalf of the DI. And I much prefer grit to gloss so I'd be watching. I think you've just given me an idea for a spin-off from my current story - a fantasy detective novel set in the same world. Hmm ...

  4. OMGZ, Joe Abercrombie is online on the SFF Chronicles forum <>

  5. One year ago today I was on my way to Chicago. Where's that year gone?!!!

      Life is like a roll of toilet paper. the closer to the end the faster it goes.

  6. Ooh, that's a tough one. I think season 4 is probably my favourite ... probably ... :)

  7. Oooh, well I've got a map and a list, so that's okay! Mine's a fantasy story aimed at adults (I was going to say 'adult fantasy' but I'm pretty sure that's something entirely different ... ). Are you aiming for the glossy CSI market or the grittiness of something like The Wire (substitute UK shows as applicable ... )? Or somewhere in between? I'll watch out for you at the BAFTAs.

  8. Pet hate of the day: people who walk along the road looking at their phones instead of where they're going. Grrrrr!

      That's annoying! I read a while ago there was someone who was texting and walked into a bear that had escaped the zoo, I think.

      Ha! Steve, your secret is out . . . it's the 'grrrrr' that gives it away.

      More people do that than don't I find .. there should be a bear around every corner :D The amount of mums I see pushing a pushchair/pram with one hand and texting with the other .. drives me mad. No-one sees anything anymore .. this is how the martians are going to steal a march on us mark my words .. they'll have landed and be making plans but we'll all be too busy looking at our phones!!!!

      They quit? Too bad for the fans, eventhough I wasn't one. At least you got to see the last ever gig :)

      Yeah, they've split. Gutted! Awesome gig last night, though, best I've seen them play.

  20. Whatever happened to manners? Some people's inability to say 'please' or 'thank you' drives me mad.

      Manners went in the same direction as Common Sense. :rolleyes:

      hear hear! People don't seem to be able to use common sense nowadays, they have to be told by the government what to do with their lives.

  21. Yeah, all's good here, thanks. More than happy to have a read - you've got the email address?

  22. Yeah, PT were great!
