It's ok but the guy needs to be overweight, a claustrophobic and a closet science fiction fan.. so we can get BF and SA's books into it. He can stumble and fall across a huge display of mine I suppose as he is a haemophiliac and his girlfriend is very into Stephanie Meyer books.

:D give it a coffee shop and you can set the whole episode in there.

It will be like Ellen, but funny!

Actually I liked Ellen. See what jealousy does to a man. :(

Definitely. He's a big short story writer, and wrote a lot of the classic early Trek episodes.

Yes, well, in point of fact, he only wrote one episode of Star Trek. Granted it was the classic 'City On The Edge Of Forever', but still just the one.

Whistling nnocently

thank you,

yours sincerely

But did he?

Cheers all, the link is actually in my sig below. But I was kinda too embarrassed to physically tie it in with me in a more direct way.

Once the book is out properly, I'll be less ashamed... I hope.

It's called Big Bang and it's about a dysfunctional group of celebrities, cut off from their PR departments and gag writers, trying to survive in a nuclear bunker. Unable to contact the outside world, they're never sure if if the bomb dropped or whether the computer mainframe is playing mind games with them. When they finally begin to accept their lot and adjust to bunker life, their version of reality is fundamentally challenged.

There's an underlying metaphor and mild exploration of Schrodinger's Cat but you don't need to know about Schrodinger (or his cat) to get the story. It's also been converted into a sitcom and screenplay.

I assume you went to visit one or more bunkers to reccy the scenery ?

For the rest of you you might want to go visit Kelvedon Hatch. http://www.secretnuclearbunker.com/

SPRING IS HERE.

Unimpressed

I quite like Spring, it's Summer that can be a bitch.

Sore throat and bad back now as well.

This has to be the rest of the week at home I think.
