Agony aunts Page 2
So the solution seems to be take over the office, move him into his office, then shove up a scalextrics up his bum and set fire to it.
Will do!
Next problem, does anyone else have one?
I'm obsessed with the need to play Spider Solitaire instead of getting down to some writing. When I tear myself away, I'm then drawn to Bejewelled 2 de Luxe. These things dominate my life. I even dream of cascading jewels. What should I do?
If you're getting bored Alchemy's quite a good game
Does anyone actually 'enjoy' writing? Everyone seems to have trouble getting motivated - to me that says it's not the most enjoyable thing for that person to be doing.

I don't want to be a writer, I want to be a procrastinator.
The bit where you get the ideas, and the bit after you've written it are so excellent they make up for the writing bit inbetween.

I'm definitely with you on that one Moonstone!
I do have a problem for the Agony Aunt as well:
We're performing/recording a few sketches tomorrow for a course I've been doing.
In one of them I have to play James Bond.
The trouble is, I'm not sure which accent to try to do.
Lazenby or Dalton?
Dalton is my favourite Bond.
Writing is my alchemy I try to turn shit into gold.
Unsuccesfully so far.

David Niven.
Dalton is the most homosexual Bond and most ressembles an angry slightly rumpled piece of fruit.
Lazenby is as expressionless as a piece of wood with botox in a stasis field.
I've got a similar problem with a colleague...
She's really sweet, but very loud and annoying, unfortunately she gets the same train. I'm running out of reasons to stay after work, or leave early to avoid having to get on the same train as her.
What should I do?
Hmm join Al Quaeda and blow the train up.
It worked for me and now I have 72 virgins. That or buy a newspaper and claim your writing for the newsrevue!
Quote: Leevil @ November 28 2009, 5:17 PM GMTI watched James May's Toy Stories: Scaletrix and I'm sure the week after was a train set edition? Did you see it, was it and any good?
Train set edition is at Christmas. Elliot freeeeeaked.

6. Lego
They did Hornby where they just looked at the trains, but Christmas is the GIANT TRACK one.
Or hit her with the book.

I do enjoy writing. I don't plan much and I like seeing what emerges on the page. I also usually write with an alcoholic beverage and a cigarette, which makes it quite a pleasant experience.
