    Thanks, Ashlea - but I think I'll stick to panadol. ;) Same thing, I think. :)

    Ask Me Anything ...

    Another questions along those lines. I have about a million black socks. But once they have been through the washing machine, it is almost impossible to match them. No two are alike. :( Why is that? :confused: Hobitten

    Ask Me Anything ...

    Ok Martin, here is one for you. A difficult question, which has puzzled many a scientist, scolar, housewife and laundry worker: Why do the pillow case and sheet (and everything else you put into the machine) almost always end up inside the duvet case, when you launder them in the washing...

    Force yourself

    I know what you mean, Wolf. I picked The Silmarillion up (again) last night, and had to put it back down again. :mad: The only thing I have managed to read through is "of the rings of power and the third age". It is very frustrating, especially when you read the Hobbit and the Lord of...

    Dan Brown: The Da Vinci Code

    I finished it last night. I must say, that I was highly entertained - though more so in the beginning, that at the end. The end was rather predictable. :o But I do enjoy that kind of mysteries. I do not think, however, that I will read this book again. I might "release" for bookcrossing...

    How many books do you have?

    A few years back, I made a register / database of all (or almost all) my book. I have close to 800 titles - or some 900 volumes, and I am forever bying more books. Bying books is my one weekness (or one of them, anyway). Last summer my sister and brother-in-law helped me decorate my...

    The Return Of The King **Spoilers**

    I think he would turn in his grave. I was completely horrified at the thought! :eek: :mad: :mad: Three wonderful films have been made. Why not leave it at that? I can't imagine Aragorn breaking into song in the middle of the battle of Helms Deep, when he rallies his troops. :confused...

    Favorite Quotes

    I know I am 6 months late in replying to this particular posting, but I just saw this thread today. This quote from LotR has meant very much to me, ever since I read the books for the first time more than 20 years ago. I have been against death penalty all my adult life, and in my humble...

    Look what I bought!

    Don't listen to them, Martin - I love the car, Martin! :D In Denmark we call it a Mascot. :cool: My sister-in-law used to have one, back in the seventies. And it isn't that small! I know for a fact, at you can fit two huge New Foundland dogs into it!!! ;) So there.... Good luck...

    What do you use as a bookmark?

    I agree with you, Phil. Last year when I was visiting a cousin of mine, I remarked on all the new books she had sitting on her book shelf - still unread. Uncracked paperbacks. "Oh, no" She said. "I have read them all" To me an uncracked paperback is the sign of an unread book...

    How was your weekend?

    I am glad you're OK, Martin. Who would be bickering with phil_t, if you weren't here? ;) No, seriously, I am glad you're OK. It's frightening to realize, what can happen in a split second. :eek: I think you should consider yourself lucky to walk away from that accident. My...
