  1. Also, I know I've read Phantom Overload somewhere before, but a) can't remember where and b) interesting to re-read in the new context.
  2. just finished @djolder's Salsa Nocturna (pre-pub review copy of) - it's awesome. This is me making a note to remind y'all of that in July
  3. @halcyonday Beaches also have much to recommend them. I think I've concluded that it's all about have an orienting stretch of water.
  4. *almost* bought a batch of #Olympic Park tickets but decided against paying £10 + £6p&p to walk around my own neighbourhood
  5. Fancy a short read with real teeth? Hal Duncan takes on vampires vs werewolves in "Sic Him, Hellhound! Kill! Kill!" subterraneanpress.com/index.php/maga…
  6. @letterboys yes, but I'm about to be in the tube for the next hour or so.
  7. @letterboys absolutely, I just haven't had ten minutes to myself to work out a plan. Where are you staying? (I'll email later this evening)
  8. Sorry, #LastFM bear, still listening! Half an hour of work day left, and with the right music, I can do anything :D
  9. Thing I have learned today - young coconut milk does not taste like tasty, delicious, (ripe? old?) coconut milk.
  10. @mabiana that's ... special!
  11. @meddlingkid excellent! happy new home!
  12. @word_geek @2grummpy Woot! Congratulations! and yes!
  13. @silverAJ genius! Are they as tasty and delicious as they look?
  14. @rikibeth ohh - what period?
  15. @halcyonday Central London's getting the magnificent thunder, but with blue sky and no rain :)
  16. @meddlingkid The universe is Not Cooperating with you today, is it? *virtual beer*
  17. @Jan_van_Es *has Labyrinth moment*
  18. @rikibeth Good luck with finals, and eeee! original novel! woot!
  19. @penelopefriday *grins* - that's very appropriate :D
  20. @rikibeth danke! How are you?
