I hope that you're feeling better now. 50 books is quite a target to reach, good luck!

A cereal bar. It's too early to be making anything.

So you have done this on computer? Very impressive

How long did it take you to complete?

So after programme 2, I think there is a lot of potential. I'm particularly looking forward to future skates from Chico (although I felt that the judges were a little over enthusiastic with their scoring), Sebastein Foucan and Matthew Wolfenden. I think those in danger this week are Rosemary Conley and Corey Feldman. What does everyone think?

I'm going to have wait until tomorrow until I watch this week's episode. Will post my thoughts on it then. I can't believe that it's the end of the series already

You drew this? It's amazing!

So tonight, the line up looks as follows: Chico Corey Feldman Jennifer Ellison Laila Morse Matthew Wolfenden Rosemary Conley Sam Nixon Sebastein Foucan Who are you looking forward to seeing skate? I'm looking forward to seeing what Corey Feldman and Sebastein Foucan are like on the ice.

This sounds like a fun read. I must add this to my TRB list!

This afternoon I watched 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'.

Trying new genres and authors is really good from time to time. Hopefully you will find some inspiration on here.

Hi welcome to the board! I know what you mean about reading becoming a chore, as I have a book blog too and in the past I found that I was getting bogged down by having to read books to review. I hope you get back to enjoying reading again! What sort of books do you like to read?

Hi welcome to the board!

I think 'Hugo' is a great film. I would definitely recommend watching this.

This is a book I have to get my hands on as 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' was one of my favourite films as child. Great choice!

I'm not entirely sure on this one. According to the articles I have read on the Internet, Jason was sacked over the comments he made to Karen Barber in the last series. I definitely could see why this would be a reason for him to be sacked, as he was quite offensive towards her.

I thought the same thing. Although being a 'Dr Who' fan too, I quite enjoyed the dark nature of the programme. It's definitely what Moffat does best.

I was discussing the novels with a friend today. It seems like the tv show is quite different from the novels. So I think that I will have to get my hands on the original text, to compare the two.

Does anyone know if Holly left or was she pushed by the programme's producers?
