Ok, blog introspection challenge. One last time. Ooops, did I really write that? Sorry, no offense meant. Let’s finally get this thing done, a hundred years after I started it. Yawn. No, I really *am* tired. I was working late, and rather than continuing, I am turning to the dreary last instalment of the challenge.…

Episode 8 of season 3 of Hannibal was a debut in more senses than one. First and foremost, this is the episode where Francis Dolarhyde as portrayed by Richard Armitage makes his first appearance.

Coming back to yesterday’s post on my favourite aspect of blogging, the inspiration that blogging has proven to be for me, has left a visible mark on…
Ok, project for this week? Get the ~(!#$@* blog introspection challenge out of the way. Really. Not least because from next Saturday I expect there will be lots to say and comment on. Behold the Becoming… So, today’s topic is “my favourite aspect of blogging”. No question – it is the communication and community aspect…
Storytime, readers! Here’s a small recap of Pop!Thorin’s trip to London. The King had demanded he wanted to go back to the place he has such happy memories of. It just so happened that his PA aka Guylty had a business trip scheduled for this week, and so he latched on and came along. We…
