Nice one!! :)
Last night I dreamt about meeting up in my local pub with this guy that I like & just talking about anything & everything then us going back to my house & talking some more & one thing leads to another..... and the postman knocked on the front door at 7.20am waking me up...
propped up against my pillows in bed :) And it's great when you get the munchies around 12am! Go and get a glass of ice cold milk (skimmed if course) & some biscuits or chocolate.... just be careful of the crumbs!!!
What doesn't kill us makes us stronger ;)
I drink Smirnoff with lemonade :) - don't worry, my parents keep saying I'm a binge- drinker as our National press keeps printing statistics that if you drink more than blah blah .....:rolleyes:
I just drink to enjoy myself & I know my limits...
There are a lot of people who are still suffering the after affects of the war & Hitler's plans for the Master Race. I don't propose that it should just be forgotten (“The one who does not remember history is bound to live through it again.” - George Santayana; this is actually on a plaque at...
Well said :)
I also really enjoy reading and I've read thousands of books. I've read since I was a little girl (not that I'm that much taller now! :rolleyes: ) and I really do believe that an early interest makes a difference.
The title of a book plays a part to a certain extent in as much that it may grab my attention (along with the cover) but I'm happy having a book recommended by someone or on amazon & reading the synopsis even if the title may have initially not stood out to me. If I then like the sound of it...
I grew up on The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins & Annie & although I don't watch them very often any more, I still love them :D
My Nan even gave me the LP Soundtrack to The Sound of Music which I've still got at home :)
@ cFaniak - I agree with Genie; that's very moving & your English was perfect :)
To me, love is amazing in as much that it has so many facets to be explored.
Here are two conclusions that I've come to at this point:
At it's best, you can feel like you are on top of the world, floating...
Thanks for that Dogtanian :)
I shouldn't really need to buy any new books for a few months after that lot tbh. I've already got about 4 new books that I haven't read & my Dad has loads of books that I'll be borrowing :D
I'll check out One Hundred Years of Solitude. Cheers

Double Homicide – Faye Kellerman & Jonathan Kellerman
Dead Wrong – Mariah Stewart
Death at La Fenice – Donna Leon

Pretty much the same as everyone else; I have read the following:

If I've read a really good book then I will re-read it over & over.
Even though I have a load of new books to read, if I suddenly fancy reading an old one, I go for it.
:)
Two fairly new authors I thought were really good:
Karin Slaughter & Jillane Hoffman - still reading The Last Witness which is JH's second book; very impressed.
I don't have a favourite book shop - I buy from WH Smiths, Waterstones & occasionally Borders. I must admit that I end up picking up a few in Adsa (Wal-mart) as although they don't have a wide range, you can get some decent books at very good prices :)
