I have been making a concerted effort to finish off some of the books I was reading, before starting any new ones. It's working! I've finished four books in the last five days - pretty impressive, I think you'll agree. Even more so considering that one of them was Le Morte Darthur, which I have been reading on and off for about 18 months. ( Read more... )

wearing the old coat, can't i use my wit as a pitchfork, via ljapp, randomness, we'll always have

Ditto - oh, you're back! That's good... I watched for you in the background of BBC News. I'm sure you appreciate the thought.

I have a friend writing her PhD on women in Malory. That is everything I know on the subject. Useless, sorry.

So, you're still here! That's good!

In fact I believe I was in the background of a couple of Ben Brown's reports, cos when I first got there all us journos wandered around together by the border post. But after a couple of days I gave that up as BORING

Yeah, I've somehow totally lost the willpower to update recently. I think I've probably spent too long on Twitter. I still read LJ every day, I just don't do anything about it!

Did you get up to any mischief out there then?

Ah, you're on Twitter? I just joined, say hello to me -- wwidsith there too

Will do!

Also, speaking of books that need to be finished, I'm reading Victoria Coren's Once More With Feeling and it's excellent, hilarious, and cheeky. And Sebastian Faulk's Human Traces which is ridiculously fascinating, although I think I need to finish it to really decide what I think...

Oh I love her so much. The fact that I have had a few brief conversations with her on Facebook is the only reason I still have a Facebook account I think. Although I haven't actually read OMWF, but I have read the poker memoir and it rocks

Oh, does she have a sneaky private account? I've never seen her use the one I'm friends with. I do love her so, though. Did you hear the rumour that she's seeing David Mitchell?

Read OMWF, definitely. I'm going to steal FRFP from my brother next.
