What I meant, Red, was that she was going to start showing those traits again. I know that she's developed - I've actually quite appreciated the way t...
What Miss Puar and the other guys said. At least try to keep it to one topic, like other reviews - there wasn't any need to post this on its own, real...

Happy celebrations, both of you! ;p Sorry I'm late. 🙂
Speaking as a member of Tony Blair's 51st state: 1. Pop or "fizzy drink", if I don't use a specific brand name. 2. Water fountain, but more usually ...
Happy 2k! And thanks for the F1 guide. You're not the only fan around here. 🙂 Personally, I'm just hoping that Alonso hasn't wrecked hos championsh...
I rather like it. Gaiman switches cultures fairly easily for someone who's never lost his identity as a Brit. 🙂
Ummm... As I was saying, there's some confusion about that. And yes, the show's been getting pilloried in sections of the press for exactly what I wa...

Couldn't stand that film myself, Craig. I thought that even the mainstream'd moved beyond films where the majority of "peril" blatantly involved watch...

As a filk writer, I actually respect the Halifax film campaigns for trying - but this just totally backfired on me. Surely the target demographic'd t...
Always pleased to meet a fellow Shortpacked fan. 🙂 If this is going to get properly followed up and isn't just a red herring, I'll be interested in ...
I'll shamelessly copy all of DW's list, along with Ulysses 31 (I miss intertextual depth these days 🙁 ), Alias the Jester and Willo the Wisp. 🙂
*waves* Welcome to the MF. Hopefully, these guys won't frighten you off - they just get frisky when they haven't been fed. 🙂
Ugh... Lucky her. I saw footage of the fire on World News Tonight - it looked fairly dramatic.
Quote:Chocolate hobnobs are gods among mortal biscuits. I'm a mint Viscount fan and I beg to differ. 🙂
... A film centred around a corporate mascot is nothing new, but I'll be interested to see exactly which poor scriptwriters're going to have to turn ...
DW, you do know that Clarkson's announced that there won't be another series of Top Gear...? Although it wouldn't surprise me if it was a publicity s...
Currently reading The Testament of Gideon Mack by James Robertson, after a recommendation from a friend. It'd possibly be a little controversial over...
Updated. 🙂
Anglo-German. As far as I know, anyway.
1. The first time I did this, I asked whether people preferred science fiction or fantasy. I was surprised that on a forum filled with people who are ...
Remember that SatAM came about to some extent because ABC refused outright to screen AoStH, and DiC had to go back to the drawing board. And to suppo...
Becca, they have one of those Sonic hats at my local comic shop. Do you want me to check the price for you, since we'll be seeing each other at Bristo...
That's still incomplete, Trish - the 40 or so pages of GMS itself're still missing. We lost the first thread before the ezHack even happened. Again, ...
Ummm... You do know why it's not a good idea to pick a fight with Switzerland, right? They have a standing militia in the way that the US' Right to B...
'Ello again, Max! I've been having a few access problems myself recently, so I must confess that I didn't know that you were gone. But welcome back, ...
My desktop? This probably won't mean anything to anyone who isn't from the UK, of a certain age and watched a particular TV series, but it currently ...
... Guys, the key word there is "believed". Just like Iraq was believed to have WMD (other than the ones that the US would still have the receipts fo...
Last in the cinema: Happy Feet. I want to see Hot Fuzz, though - for reasons anyone who's seen the little village I live in will appreciate. 🙂 Last...

Congrats! Not something I'd ever have the nerve to do - albeit with my medical history, they probably wouldn't even let me in, let alone give me anyt...
We've had a couple of similar incidents over here recently - but ours're generally to do with old mineshafts rather than genuine sinkholes.
I can sympathise with the complainants here. Common sense might say that the coin wouldn't be hidden anywhere that'd require serious desecration. But...
I'm disappointed that Peter O'Toole lost out on Best Actor yet again, but Venus was in no way one of his greatest performances. Then again, I still t...
Join the club, Srol. We should print t-shirts. 🙁 I was somewhat grimly amused by a comment from a newspaper reviewer over here. Normally, if you ha...
I'll give the guy his due in that at least he wasn't afraid to act if he felt that something was wrong. That's not stupid. Like someone already said:...

Nifty! Methinks I'll forward this to a few people. Thanks! 🙂
I was there when that photo was taken. That particular day, he'd eaten eight tubs of ice cream and been even bouncier, louder and more hyper than Bec...
Personally, I can't stand the show or any of its presenters. Please tell me what relevance any of that xenophobic rubbish had to motoring - or what r...
I got interested in Girl Genius about three years ago - but it moves so darned fast that with my 'net access issues, I haven't really caught up for mo...
