by ohthattanya 1 year agoI haven't seen the film, actually. I'm scared to because I hear it's a bit rubbish and I love the book so much. *chews fist* -
by ohthattanya 1 year agoHello Wordy. I noticed that Ian McEwan is your favourite author and I had to say hello. I loved Saturday, too, although Enduring Love is my favourite. I can't see red shoe laces any more without a shiver of fear!

by norman normington 1 year agoRoot vegetables eh? Does it or they come from anywhere? Am I typing cobblers? Did I just make it up as a joke because my other bad habits are too bad to be raised in the public domain?
Actually it came from a joke I made to my OH once that I cant remember what it was about. Something about a celebrity doing something naughty and my comment to her was "Oh that's nothing, you should see what he does with root vegetables!" -
by karen 1 year agoHi Wordy, welcome! As Spangles says, there are lots of cat fans here and guitar players! I live, not many miles from you in sunny Bramley!
