An Appropriate poem; for me anyway: Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house Not a creature was stirring, except me and my spouse The stockings were empty, no presents were wrapped We were way behind schedule and our resources tapped The children were nestled all...

I do. I'm not so sure about a whole plateful though;)

Sorry, couldn't resist it. Happy Christmas:)

Is it Christmas with you yet? We've still got another 47 minutes to go.

Merry Christmas already then. We've got a few hours to go yet. Just got the two kids to bed and relaxing with some nice food and a few glasses of good red wine; bliss. Merry Christmas where ever you are; best wishes for the new year. Peace.:) :D

You know you shouldn't use this forum as a homework aid.;) :)

Thanks very much. I'm not sure I should be celebrating though as I was the big four 'o' . Though they do say life is supposed to begin at 40. We had a great night out with 16 friends and family at an Italian restaurant. Very nice evening.:)

I notice The Crying of Lot 49. Is that a warm up for Gravitys Rainbow or have you already read that one? I read Lot 49 and Vineland but I'm a bit wary of GR. It's sitting there alongside War and Peace, taunting me.

I got given a couple of years ago one which isn't on his list of books. It's called City of God published in 2000 I think. My brother-in-law, who did a couple of years in the US studying literature says it's his favourite book; well it was two years ago. I've read it twice and still haven't seen...

Everything is Illuminated after the first 1/3 perhaps. Oh yeah, talking about crap did anyone in the UK catch QI tonight; Stephen Fry's description of The Da Vinci Code; "Loose stool water and arse gravy of the worst kind." I think Stewart would have approved;)

I think TV and video can be used as a supplement. My seven year old has always been interested in books from an early age as I've tried to read to him as much as possible; we've worked our way through all the Cronicles of Narnia and are now on Roald Dahl one of which he has read aloud to me...

What about George Orwell; fairly easy to read and to comprehend and not to long. Oh, and welcome to the forum and the English language:)

Last;Van Morrison. Next;Bloodbrothers-Willy Russell. I know it's not really a gig but we love it. It's the fourth time I think. Try my hardest not to cry every time.

Stewart, I thought you had a rugby ball shaped head and two circular white eyes:rolleyes:

CDA, forgive me for asking but what does your signature mean- play snood. Just curious:confused:

I won an I-pod mini at a works raffle last year. It's something I never would have thought of buying because of the price. It certainly is an impressive piece of kit though. The sound is incredible and I also use it as a portable hard disc.

I can't remember that much about it but 'The Stars' Tennis Balls' is not his best book.

It could be a picture of someone else though. I always pictured Stewart to be slightly older and wiser looking, if you know what I mean:confused: I don't like to see pictures of people on forums; it's a bit like when you see a film of a book and the mental picture you have of a person is...

:cool: cool

Like you I'm a learner. I like what you've done though. dpreview is pretty good for photoshop and photography help
