Morning all.

I'm useless at flower arranging. On the very, very rare occasion that I get some I just unwrap them and plonk them in a vase as they are. DH on the other hand is very good, not particularly with real flowers, but with silk ones. He's made some lovely arrangements.

That pic from The Souvenir. WTAF? I love you dearly Tom, but no, just no!

New cover for The Silkworm from Robert Galbraith FB.

They've reorganised the pics at the Far Far Away Site and Strike appears in the A-Z section now. I think there are some new ones in there.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 12:37

It just dawned on me that Strike is this Sunday! OMFG! Squeeeeeeeeeee!

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 12:45

Have any of you seen Frankenstein's Chronicles? Is it any good?

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 25/08/2017 15:27

Can't help re. Frankenstein, sorry.

Nice Tom Burke interview at inews.co.uk/essentials/culture/television/tom-burke-must-give-space-writers-directors-brave-experiment/ which includes the snippet:
"Hollywood beckons, too. An American director – he won’t say which – has expressed an interest in working with him. “I absolutely will be there if and when that happens.”
--Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 16:38

Afternoon wenches.

Tired. So very very tired. Hey, but it's okay because when I got home DH told me that "my" washing machine had just finished and that he was "absolutely shattered" because he'd cleaned the bathroom. Lost count of how many times I rolled my eyes. He did manage to get one of the library books for me though so I shall let him live. And he's going out tonight so if can persuade DS2 to stay in his room with the iPad, I can catch up with Outlander Grin

MrApricot is a man of many many talents!

Not seen Frankenstein Chronicles sorry.

at securing TB's nearest and dearest so he won't leave

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 25/08/2017 16:46

In retrospect, Securing sounds very dodgy Confused Blush

I can't imagine you'd have a problem with DS2 staying in his room in exchange for ipad time? Not sure your DH will be able to go out though, I mean he must be exhausted after cleaning the bathroom. No wonder he had no energy for hanging out washing as well. After all, it takes me about, oooh, 1/2 hour to clean the bathroom and there's no way I could manage a night out as well after all that effort. Hmm Still, you're home now and Outlander is on the cards...

ApricotCrush · 25/08/2017 17:14

No Frankenstein's Chronicles here either.

Maybe TB meant Martin Scorsese when he mentioned an American director. Yes I know that's already started and looks weird but I'm clutching at straws. Nah, he won't go to live there, maybe do a film but he wouldn't leave his family.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 17:24

Oh my goodness, your poor DH Letus Hmm
You haven't seen Frankenstein's Chronicles? Sean Been is in it? I'm planning to watch the first ep tonight, I'll let you know how it is.

WineWine for all wenches.

What about Scorsese Apes? What have I missed?

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 17:25

Funny how, despite being exhausted, the brave little lamb is still going to manage to go out Hmm

Am just trying to imagine TB doing the whole Hollywood meeting and schmoozing stuff... Nope, I pride myself on having quite the imagination, but that's not bringing up anything Grin

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 17:30

Just had a look on IMDB for FC. Looks good, not sure how I missed it when it was on here. Tom Ward is in it and he's rather nice.

Scorsese is Exec Producer for The Souvenir WW.

Oooo, Sean Bean you say?

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 25/08/2017 17:44

Wicked - Scorsese is involved with The Souvenir He's exec producer.

ApricotCrush · 25/08/2017 17:49

New behind the scenes video from the Rowling Library website. (Thanks to TBOnline for the heads up.)

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 17:50

Oh, he is? Totally missed that. I've been concentrating on Strike Wink

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 18:15

I'm on the 🍷Grin

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 19:38

Enjoy your Wine Wicked

Hmm we're going to have to restock the tav in advance of Cuckoo's Calling. Plenty of cushions, fresh pants, bottles of water to combat dehydration caused by excessive panting...

DH is out, DS1 is in his room, DS2 is safely installed upstairs. It's Jamie time!

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 25/08/2017 19:52

Grin at excesseive panting

Watched first ep of FC, quite dark and depressing, but I'll give the next ep a try.
Enjoy Jamie Letus Grin

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 25/08/2017 21:23

Tonight I was going to switch the computer off and devote my attention to the TV DH

Then I got another email re. Project-with-stupid-deadline... Still, DH says he was planning on a reading and cricket night, so not like he's bothered.

How are you getting on with Jamie LetUs?

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 21:44

Oh dear re slightly depressing FC Wicked

I've had a double helping of Jamie and cannot wait to have watch him again next week

purely as a counter action to any dehydration of course

You could set an example to some folk in my office Helen. See a piece of work with a deadline and actually deal with it yourself, instead of doing a bit yourself and then emailing a long list of stuff still to be done to someone else whilst you then piss around chatting for most of the day.

ApricotCrush · 25/08/2017 22:28

Crikey!!! Are you up to date with Jamie LetUs?

LetUsPrey · 25/08/2017 22:48

Have started watching Doctor Strange with DS1.

LetUs - you are an example to us all with your devotion to parenting - sitting through the films they like, purely to have parent/child bonding experiences and generate happy family memories for the future.

Cracks on....
