The Lady Varnishes
Whoops, a month and a half went by rather quickly there. RL has (oh please PLEASE please) taken a turn for the better again, but events are in motion and moving at speed. Which means I'll (hopefully) be back in a few weeks after I get my act together and do what I know I must get done. But I'm NOT going to do my disappearing trick again. Sorry for ( Read more... ) -
The Boys are Back In Town
A mind-numbing two years have passed since my last post. Two of the worst years I can remember, for me personally (bereavement, business worries and injury have all taken a toll) and probably for a lot of other people, since the recession started.

The Final Curtain
A surreal telly experience as I was sorting out the DVD for 'City of Vice' on Monday. Just after I'd finished watching the All-New Adventures of Chancellor Palpatine, I turned the channel over to see Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu in a trailer for 'Jumpers'. Disturbed, I quickly switched over and was confronted with Obi-Wan Kenobi's grinning face ( Read more... ) -
Regarding Henry (and Historical Accuracy)
I suppose the inevitable had to happen - I found a playa hater. Just when the world at large seems to be coming around to CoV and it's unique charms ( Read more... ) -
Is it Monday again soon?
Sanity has now been temporarily restored (until Monday, 9pm). The worst part of CoV so far has been the long, agonising wait of a week until the next episode!
( Episode One; 'Big Pimping'. )
