Tangential Thoughts: Relics and Wands
You know, the funny thing just after reading a new Potter book, is that I always seem not to be able to get stuck into any other decent books. For example, I’ve recently started Kate Mosse’s Labyrinth, which I just know I will find a cracking read, but which I just can’t seem to find the urge to progress past page 60 at the moment ( Read more... ) -

Happy Birthday connielane
And though the thought of being in your 30s probably seems quite horrendous right now, I promise you that it'll be the best decade yet.

Lost in Translation
Over the past year or so, I've noticed many of you mention Lost in your journal entries. And I've often wondered what this show was.
Well, Lost finally arrived on UK TV screens last night for the start of (I think) a 24 week run of the first series. In fact the first two episodes were screened last night and I quite enjoyed it ( Read more... ) -

I'm furious. Furious, I tell you.
Sins are being committed on a daily basis. Why are these idiots being permitted to continue with their blatant dissembling?

FIRSTLY, JKR did not call H/Hr shippers “delusional”.
JKR: Well no, I'm not going to - Emerson, I am not going to say they're delusional! They are still valued members of my readership! I am not going to use ( Read more... ) -
The Hangover
It’s always a funny feeling straight after a HP book release. The book’s been read twice and has now taken up its permanent residence in the 2 ½ inch space to the right of OotP, which was lovingly prepared on July 15th. And that leaves a bit of a void in my life, just at the moment, which probably won’t start to be filled until sometime towards the ( Read more... )
