  1. I don't read as much as used to - lack of time as much as anything else - but I have a lot of books. I'm not a terribly critical reader either and there is only 1 author who I've never been able to like, despite owning a number of his books - Stephen Donaldson. He's a good writer, because I actually *hate* a lot of his characters (his intention, they aren't nice people), which is why I can't read a lot of his stuff. other authors (apart from Lyn Flewelling and Gail Carriger) that you will find in significant numbers on my shelves:- Mercedes Lackey Marion Bradley Mary Stewart Jim Butcher Ursula Le Guin Anne McCaffrey Katherine Kurtz Katharine Kerr Stephen Lawhead Tad Williams JRR Tolkien Terry Pratchett Neil Gaiman Terry Goodkind, Raymond E Feist Douglas Adams Storm Constantine Freda Warrington Anne Bishop Oh and a certain Richard Castle is on my shelf too, but I only have one book so far!
  2. I saw JB's Holmes at time of broadcast, I just don't remember it well.
  3. I don't do 'books' I do Series! my 2 faves atm are The Parasol Protectorate series by Gail Carriger which is AU Victorian London, with werewolves and vampires and steampunk and the Nightrunner series by Lyn Flewelling which has a fae thief and his half-fae (and male) lover as the main protagonists.
  4. Hippo Birdy 2 Ewe!!!
  5. Why do fannish things have to be so expensive? I would dearly love to go to Peterborough for the Greatest Show in the Galaxy but there's no way I can justify/afford it.
  6. Your wild guess is correct!
  7. I wonder who that might be?
  8. Including the emergency pharmacy in my hospital... They have an example of what you need to put down on the sheet when you pick up out of hours stuff... Patient - Holmes Ward - 221b Consultant - Watson The drug bits of the example were boring and normal but you can't have everything.
  9. Umm. Sorry for the making you feel like an idiot thing. Wasn't intentional.
  10. You need to see Mrs Hudson to get something for that cough! Hello!
  11. There's only 1 band I tend to listen to more in Summer than any other time of year and that's Iris. Probably because I associate them with Infest at Bradford (where I saw them live), which is in August.

  13. I now you aren't blaming people, I just thought it was interesting as I ended up with 4 even though I didn't start off with them. When I got confirmed as a catholic, you picked the name of a saint who seemed significant to you, the idea being that they would be a guide in ones pursuit of being a good catholic person I think. Don't know if they still do that, I have as little to do with the catholic church as possible now.

  15. I don't have TIME for another show - unless a mad man with a blue box shows up - I'm not even able to watch half of what I record in the same month as it's recorded even now.
  16. Now you make me want to go and look up *another* show. Bad Banshee!

  18. I'm just copying what the person before me did with the life thing. I'm not doing tally marks properly so no, the horizontal line won't class as a life and there'll only be 10 lives. Don't have to use that if it's confusing I can just go back to stating how many, if any, have been lost.
