I'll see...
Allright but Roger the Alien does make me laugh. American Dad is one of the few programmes I'll happily watch an umpteenth repeat of.
we got to 51 pages. how'd we do that?
Got scaffolding around my building... weird seeing people walk past your window when you live 1 up.
Oh aye I'd that problem when I lived at Bachelors Walk in Dublin. Be careful when you open your curtains in the morning .
51 pages!!! makes me feel sad though... did you ever keep in touch with Ruby?
The lack of natural light is making me listless.
Yes, got Ruby and Temps on facebook and twitter.

There is that. Hopfully the workmen won't be there long.
I think Temps nipped into the BB forum recently. Its good you're still in touch with Ruby... hope things are going well for her.
think so. she seems ok... just tried to start a game of draw something with her... I hope we got the right apps. I got confused. :S
Ah good. Please would you tell her I said hello sometime?
I shall.
Ruby sends her hellos.
Thanks Hitch *waves back to Ruby*
Did you see Richard Hammond on the ads for Planet Earth Live? Thats an odd fit. I'd kind of prefer Chris Packham doing it.
I didn't.. in fact what is this thing? It sounds environmental... maybe Hammond is there to be all "see! TG presenters aren't all anti-environmental! look how cute he is! you like him on that show with the people falling over! watch TG!"...
Sort of like that bit during the grand national with James May (and Rory! we didn't see Rory... ). He did a nice vignette for them...I actually learned stuff about the inner workings of horses.
Also... new man lab soon.
JM was part of the Grand National coverage? Rory who... Rory McGrath?
Heres the Planet Earth Live trailer http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00rbgbd
... lots of baby animals which is always a winner.
Rory was the wee guy they took the mick out of on Manlab.
I saw it on the telly today... before or after Pointless, can't remember which.
Aaaaaaaargh! *jumps out of skin* scary new avatar Hitch
Sorry! Sorry!
It's Barnabas Collins from Dark Shadows (as played by Jonathan Frid, who passed on the 13th of this month. ). It was a 1960s supernatural soap opera, Sci-fi channel reran them in the 90s... I used to make sure my vcr was set on a sunday night to record them for the week when I was at school.
Coolest vampire ever. Angel and Spike, I love too but even they pale by comparison... as for that Cullan joker? we'll say no more.
He is about to be absolutely ruined by Johnny Depp/Tim Burton in our local cinemas. *nods*
Ah I see. He certainly looks creepy.
Well... he is a vampire. He's not evil though. One of the good guys, well, good-er, it is a soap.
In the later episodes when there is colour film (exciting!), you can see that he isn't the stereotypical pale skinned vamp. The make-up department were slightly heavy with the bronzer/blusher.
That is one of the rare occasions that you see him vamped out. If I remember correctly, he's only killed "baddies" after he got released (175 year locked in a crypt must make you hungry)... And Dr Hoffman had a way to cure/control the bloodlust too.
Very cool, calm and collected our Barnabas and intelligent. *nods* The new movie seems to have Depp jumping around all "wah! what is this new fangled technology! *panics*" and ye olde... Barnabas was nothing like that, very adaptable.
*rabbit rabbit rabbit*
I'm geeking out again. I do apologies.
Sounds like a really good series. I can't believe I hadn't heard of it before.
If you ask me... vampires started going downhill with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt
Ah yes... Whichever bright spark decided to cast Tom Cruise as Lestat?! Brad Pitt as Louis?! Kirsten Dunst as... oh gods I can't remember her name. lol Armand was ok... I guess. Puss in boots did him I think? Another one were I think the book is superior.
It was a good series, if you excuse cheesy soap-like nature of it and the wobbly cardboard tombstones.
I wish they'd replay it again, a few vcr hiccups mean I have next to no grasp of what was happening during the Leviathan storyline.
