Berrie, Lyra, Oggs and Zeb chat thread

[ProfessorCalculus]

How many threads is this now?

Not sure about legality.
You can't listen to Twilight on audio, you have to properly read it.

I'm knackered too. Stayed up late downloading Twilight soundtrack. It's pretty good, especially the Muse song Supermassive Black Hole from the excellent baseball scene.

Don't know if our connection will be up to it tbh.
I've just looked at what speed we actually have and it's 100kbps. The bumf says up to 512kbps
Still very pleased with it, but it can hardly be classed as superfast can it?

Morning!
Yes I'm a druggie. This morning I had a big orange opiate, an acupan, 2 paracaetamol, an anti inflammatory, a citilopram and a contraceptive...all in one swallow...followed by a nice cup of tea and marmalade on toast...in bed!
Am downstairs now. I had to crawl and then use dh like a zimmer but I'm feeling optamistic for a recovery. It helps that we've given up trying to cope and dh is here. I was feeling especially vulnerable yesterday and in constant pain.

Happy last day Zeb!

Oggs, you talking about listening to Twilight as an audio book was the final straw! I have ordered a copy and sent it to your address. It will be dispatched in 1-2 working days.

Now don't give me no jibba jabba!

Lunchtime.

Oh yes, Robin Hood. It was the same as ever. Bad guys more interesting than the good guys. Tuck was interesting. Not fat. But actually I liked him, he has wayyy more gumption than the rest of the gang, Robin 'boy band' Hood included.
The only downside is that Guy had a well dodgy haircut. But I'm hoping that will change.

Lol at jibba jabba
Zeb, are you a free woman now? Are you off to get pissed?

Tesco said my Twilight DVD has been despatched but it still hasn't arrived. They're teasing me. I wanna see it on a full-sized screen with no Swedish subtitles.

Oh and I've started reading The Reluctant Fundamentalist. It's ok so far but quite put-down-able.

That's just cruel! It can't be can it?

I downloaded a dvd rip last night. No subtitles and we can watch it on the TV. Going to watch it with dh tonight. Hope he doesn't think it's silly.

Hah...I started Middlemarch yesterday. Was hard pressed to make it to the end of the first paragraph. Zeb had to be studying it to have read it more than once!

Dh will think it's just a silly teen movie, which I suppose it is if you haven't read the book.
Berrie, you're not trying hard enough with Middlemarch. It's highbrow y'know. There's no enjoyment in it but you'll be able to say you've read it and feel smug.

Oh Berrie. Let me know what I owe you. You are incorrigible .
He must be quite something this Mr Cullen. Does he have dark hair? A floppy fringe?

Trying to sort out new email addresses this morning

Zeb, do you take the Times by any chance? or write for the times . Your description of Robin Hood bears an uncanny resemblance to the previews in Sat's edition . Boy band indeed.

Lyra your new book sounds very worthy. I'll google.

Berrie, what size knitting needles do you have?

Tis a gift my Ogglet. All that you owe me is to read the damn thing at once and join in the mooning over Edward. He is everything you want him to be and more. I am currently googling the movie of the next book as I need to be connected back to their world somehow...

Er...possibly 4 1/2...have retreated back to bed so can't look.

Well then please accept my most effusive thanks . I promise to start reading as soon as it hits the doormat.

Oggs! Are you accusing me of plagiarism? OK, yes, I did get Saturday's Times, but only cos they'd sold out of the Telegraph. But I didn't consciously copy it.

I thought Twilight wasn't out until next Monday. I'm off to buy Breaking Dawn later. Drinks start at 3.30pm!

Berrie, have you read Midnight Sun yet? Tis very good.
I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble letting go of the Cullens. I want Carlisle to adopt me
Oggs, floppy, dark hair - well more bronze and tousled. Good enough?

Zeb, I pre-ordered from Tesco and they emailed me to say it had been despatched. Turns out that was a big fat lie.

Not yet...scurries off

This is a nice picture
Just getting in the mood for tonight!

Oooh, lovely. I'm guessing that's Edward in Volterra. He's still not my Edward but he looks pretty good in that picture.
Have fun tonight.

They've cast a 20-year-old as Caius
I thought Caius was older. And Marcus and Aro.

Glad he forgot to put his shirt on

I can't remember who Caius is

The white-haired nasty one of the Volturi.
Shame on you, Berrie.
Where did you find that pic btw? Are there others?
