Eddie Izzard - Circle dvd
Gosford Park - dvd
chocolate. Charbonnet and Walker, no less, mmmm....
turkish delight. All those who start yelling Narnia,shaddup.
massage voucher. ooo, heaven.
Wonder Woman address book. Fabulous beyond spangly tights!
Bill Bryson - Mother Tongue (shaddup and leave me to my obsession with the English language)
teddy bear slippers. cute beyond sickly. oh yes. :laughs manically:
And to all those insane enough to shop on Boxing Day : FREEEEEEAAAAKKKKKS!
Four. Shops. Open. in Reading. Virgin, WHSmiths, Woolies, and Millets. Yours truly was behind the till at Virgin, and people were actually bloody well waiting to come in when we opened the door at 10am. We were busy. Christ, even the buses had the sense not to run on Boxing Day. Football and Racing is allowed, they're traditional, but shopping? you're insane, you're all insane.
Honourable mention to the new adaptation on The Hound of the Baskervilles on the BBC. Damn good, nicely atmospheric and period detailed, decent acting and script, but the slash! The slash, ladies and gentlemen, there was saunas, h/c, drug abuse, bitching, anger at being left out of things, strops, Richard E Grant going on about perfect skulls, and the presence of Ian Hart did not help. He makes slashy anything he's in anyway, without the presence of a rather delectable Richard Roxborough. Plus, added bonus of no deerstalkers and no pipes. Cigarettes and square bowlers like the text rather than going all Basil Rathbone on us.

"The answer is no."
"What?"
"No, I don't trust you. But dinner at M--- sounds nice."
Paraphrased. But definite slashy hints.
'Twas rather good, indeed. Like Mister Roxborough and Neve McIntosh and Grant. Very good. Watched with father. Kept making funny noises about "that's not in the book!" and "bad puppy!". Definitely not going with him to tTT.

Guess the first words out of my mouth as the end-credits rolled?
Yep.
"They are SO doing it!"
