I had the most glorious nights sleep. All brought on by what I hoped was a long unbroken stretch reading Dust of Dreams. No, I conked out instead, damnit. I just have no staying power these days. I'm trying to finish it in time for the Manky Meetup. I think I have been reading for about a month and I'm not even half way through. I don't want another steak pie incident!

I know what you mean. I've been reading steadily, but the last few days I've just stalled.

Spend less time on the fan forum and more time reading the actual books like an actual fan AiJ?

I know... Steak Pies was hard...

Hey, steak pies are delicious, and so appropriate!




Anyway it was amusing how we convinced you for a while that it was a fake spoiler







My groove is messed by the fact that on my phone interview for STA travel,  when asked for three places to go and see when in Rome, I forgot the Vatican...

Pantheon, Forum, Colesseum are all just as good. Trick question anyway, the Vatican might be inside the boundaries of Rome, but it isn't in Rome anymore than Burnley is.

[caladanbrood]

 Ah, but it is a place to visit when in Rome, being a Roman candle. I went for Colosseum, Aventine Hill (which has the Forum and Circus Maximus by it) and "a proper italian pizzeria" and seemed to get away with it, but still... it didn't even cross my mind which is a bit of a worry!

Besides, any customer who can't think of 3 things to see in Rome off their own back might as well stay at home and save their money for a brain transplant!

I think Mezla just called you stupid Broody.

[caladanbrood]

She knows the way of things, does that Mezla chick!

[Mezla PigDog]

Actually, it was a rather terrible attempt at cheering Brood up! What I meant was that anyone not under interview conditions and with a trip to plan should probably be able to think of the answer themselves over a few days. I like to think that my motivational pep talks usually go better....

[caladanbrood]

 Tanks, it's the thought that counts!

On a sidenote, whatever the last time i read this thread was just before STD posted about his friend dying of brain cancer.

Would like to express my belated condolences, it made me sad to hear that and I hope things are going much better for him since that post.

My computer is being stupid today and I really have no idea why... It annoys me!

[Cougar]

I have a hangover so massive you could park a car in it and call it a garage.

[Tremolo]

On a wednesday? For shame!

Still at home nursing a flue

[Cougar]

Do you mean influenza? or is your chimney playing up.

I'm still in Uni laying down the graft. That's how I roll mutha fuckas. Old school. Pen and paper shit up in this place. Undergrads ain't seen none of this late 90s studying style before.
