Thanks for the kind review

I've seen and heard enough of my scripts monotoned to death by students trying to pretend they want to be actors (to avoid having to get a job) and I'm looking forward to hearing some really committed people use my work. Have you thought about breaking into theatre? Directors have a far closer relationship with the writers and you don't feel so cheated. I'm currently discussing a collaboration with a local theatre director and we're both really keen to do something different. I think I'm more excited about that than my TV scripts. You really get a lot of inspiration from talking things over from scratch.

I was supposed to be doing something for my local theatre for their summer rep a few years back and haven't got around to it yet!! Maybe next year, but I agree theatre is wide open for comedy stagings and a lot of fun to be involved with.

I'm looking for a bookend for my Kindle...

We shall fight them on the beaches! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5rEd-a97CY&list=UU_eHiwwC0qTTGfrwyI23HJw&index=1&feature=plcp

Having a browse on Amazon for a new book - out of the top 10 bestselling books 8 of them are erotic novels. What the hell is happening that porn has become so mainstream that nobody is reading anything else?!

Try something by China Mieville - he's brill.
Just read "Kraken' - excellent.

Doesn't really look like my cup of tea, but thanks.

You should see the excitement we have here! There's a nuclear power station and a...and a...well there's definitely something else, but I've forgotten what it is. Oh yes! It's a...a...a...no...sorry it's gone again. Sigh.

My dog's covered in what seems to be red, hard bites, although the ones on her coat seem to be clear (the red ones are around her tummy and under her front legs). I'd call them hives-looking.

She doesn't seem to be itchy, the bumps have been developing throughout the day and she's been sleeping away, which she does all the time so I can't tell if she's drowsy - the internet has left me paranoid so I booked her in at the vet's.

Has anyone had any experience of this with their pet?
