The last day before the holidays is always extra busy. I have a list of things to go through – letters to send, invoices to write, phone calls to make, clothes to wash, loose ends to tie – and then it occurred to me that I should’ve planned for the blog, too, like last year,…
Here is Richard Armitage waiting for you in the foyer to take you to the ballet. A thousand new fantasies have been born, just by one simple tweet by Michelle Forbes. Wouldn’t you love the idea? A man to invite you to see a ballet, and such a romantic fairy tale at that, with gorgeous…
The weekly tumblr round-up with some nice gifs of Tom Cahalan from BoF.
Quite honestly, I have been looking for an excuse to blog today. Just because I am in a great mood. I got up at 5am this morning, to daylight, sending my daughter off on a short holiday in Scotland. She’ll be visiting her great-uncle and -aunt on the Isle of Skye – I wish I…
Huh? What the hell has happened? It was a really good week for Armitage stuff – Sleepwalker trailer and Brain on Fire still fairly fresh, then *gasp* the first selfie after eight months from the man himself, plus various photos from the BS set. And hardly anything on tumblr????!!?!?? But wait. It’s summer!!! Silly season…
Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis. That’s quite a mouthful. And a rather scary one, as the Charlize Theron-produced, Gerard Barrett-directed film Brain on Fire sets out to prove. One of the rarer and lesser known diseases of the brain, the condition mainly affects young women, and one of such survivors is at the centre of the action:…
Not sure whether you noticed it, but I had a couple of days of enforced silence here on my blog. I’ve been having issues with my MacBook (some permissions trouble and mysterious battery drain), and it got to the point where I just had to take it to the repair guy to have it seen…
More fan questions about blogging Richard Armitage, and an ode, rescued from the comments.
Hey, you fantabulous fellow fans! How cool is it that I uploaded the grey/lilac chaRActer design into Redbubble on Thursday night, and by Friday morning several sales had been done and a commission of over 12 Euro had been racked up? I know *one* person who has ordered something, but to everybody else – thank…
I’ll only leave this here: And I’ll confess now that I *still* haven’t watched BoF although it was passed to me through dark channels earlier this week. There is a definite message in the fact that I haven’t made time for that… and the fact that I have been invigilating exams this week, beside my regular…
Hello, weekend readers. I took the liberty of scheduling the weekly round-up a day late. Not necessarily because I only got back from London on Friday afternoon, but really because I wanted to ride out the unusual level of attention I was getting since late Friday evening when I posted my Observations on the SD…
Confession: I don’t have any side dishes, collateral attractions or ‘guilty pleasures’ besides my one and only crush. I’m not a Whovian, either, but if I had to pick a favourite Doctor, it would probably be number 10. There’s something about David Tennant – apart from the delicious Scottish accent (check out this *fantastic* audio…
