    what's everyone up to today?

    I just posted what turned out to be a rant about Yahoo in this thread only to find that I'd been logged out, but I'm over it now so you are all spared that. I've just made some coffee and am trying not to think about food........apart from that all the usual suspects are lined up for...

    What would you do with the day?

    Id spend the 24 hours reading, smoking, drinking coffee, snacking on junk food, with some enjoyably aimless wandering from room to room for light entertainment, and I'd reserve the early hours of the morning for being online, just for a change of scenery.I've also often fancied the idea of...

    Spammers

    You know, it would almost be acceptable if people at least made a show of wanting to be part of this forum. Its great and good that there are writers on here, but honestly some of these things are just so blatant -its just rude and arrogant...there is another one on here this morning...

    Lionel Shriver: We Need To Talk About Kevin

    Jay that's such a kind thing to offer, and I thank you so much, but I am going to order 'Kevin' and if I like it I will probably order some of Shrivers other work in the next few months - once I find someone I like I do tend to buy everything I can lay my hands on. I look forward to posting...

    Lionel Shriver: We Need To Talk About Kevin

    Ive been following this thread with interest as I'd never heard of Lionel Shriver before - shame on me. Now my question is this. I can afford to add just one more book to my Amazon order today, and having read this thread I now want to read Shriver. So, should it be 'Kevin' or 'Bleeding...

    hardback or softback books? Which do you prefer?

    I voted softback because they are cheaper........and easier to read in bed. However, the next time I buy a book about an artist I will be getting hardback, the reproductions of paintings etc are much better.
