After a week and a half abstaining, I had a lovely comment bts today from Michele that motivated me to go back to blogging. I dropped out last week because I first needed some time to finally get the custom RAPS done that had been bought at the RA birthday auction – and then I…
Am I the only one at the source today? After watching a thrilling performance by Brendan Coyle (“Nicholas Higgins” in NS, or probably better known as “Mr Bates” from Downton Abbey) in the Conor McPherson play St Nicholas (double whammy of meaning there… Not sure actually why the play was called St Nicholas…), I made it into the…
So, as you may have guessed from the regular round-up morning slot at 8am SHARP on a Saturday morning, I usually compile the round-up the night before so that it is ready for the morning and I don’t have to get up at an ungodly hour. Last night was one of those evenings where I…
Goodness me, lots of new audio material, lots of Armitage news. The news have accumulated over the last week or so, and I deliberately waited to blog about them because I wanted to catch the second instalment of the Joy Ellis “Fens” thrillers first. Done – it was released yesterday, I have downloaded it on…
While I loved finally forging ahead with my Fan Challenge – #O was a big winner, no wonder, with all those pretty pictures – I interrupt my challenge run for a little question. Encouraged by the vigorous commenting that has been going on on the blog over the last while, especially with a few newer…
O – Casual RA or dressed-to-the-nines-RA? No question. I present my case: Casual he’s all smiles. Formal? With an F for frown! I rest my case. Casual all the way! ETA: Nobody says it better than Kathy:
The round-up is going to be short today, but hey, at least I have something to say for the week in review. Because – two new images. First there was this: Oooh, fierce. I am still getting Wolverine vibes, but that’s obviously just me. Ok, sorry, no. But if you really want to laugh,…
Before I get to the challenge – seldom was I so delighted in the female hygiene section of my local Boots store as today. You see, I noticed that they are selling a particular brand of sanitary towels on special offer, and it comes with my favourite kind of thin, metal tin. They are larger…
M – RA has spoken Russian, French and German in his roles so far. How good was he and which one was your favourite? Who can resist a(n attractive) man with an accent? Any actor will do well to take on at least one role where he plays a foreigner, I think. Well, at least…
I’m on a roll… L – Dealbreakers – what would make you stop being RA’s fan? Apart from what everyone else has said – if RA became a political (right-wing) extremist, turned out to be racist or sexist – I have to admit there are also a few other things that would turn me off…
