[Tonyblack]

It's very much London slang.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Very Terry and Arfur!

(No doubt, I'll have to translate that!)


Downloaded Raising Steam for my Kindle. Not really enjoying it.

Arfur!! ee must ave been decended from Throat's linage.

@pip it's a common reference in East London and parts of West London.

Finished Broken Homes. Loved it! Pip, even with your warning and the little giveaway in the book, I did not see that coming!

Its quite the ending. Really looking forward to the next book in the summer.

Me too! I'm wondering if I'll be able to pick up a copy at the DWcon? For some reason, the one piece of slang that I get the biggest kick out of is "manor". People referring to where they grew up or live as their manor.

Catch-up unlike the NADWCon's there is mainly Discworld books,but there might be a dealer or so selling other books as well.

Just finished "Revelation" by C J Sansom - Tudor whodunnit. 5*

 

[meerkat]

hope you enjoyed it, hnorwood. ~I thought it was excellent.

Currently reading Malcolm Pryce's Aberystwyth Series (still looking for two more).

Admition: As I am now in Ravenclaw and have completed the boils potion, I am re-reading the Harry Potter series ... and I have just got the latest M.C. Beaton 'death of a policeman from the Library.

Started Stormbird :The War of the Roses by Conn Iggulden. Good so far

Or a bookshop nearby

I'm always willing to go exploring for bookshops.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

Blackwells and Waterstones are the large chain of bookshops, here are a few more.

Yes, very much. Must go and find the next one - "Heartstone"
Currently re-reading an old Anne McCaffrey

 

[meerkat]

oooh, Heartstone is GOOD!!

currently reading the Day Aberystwyth stood still by Malcolm Pryce.

 

[Catch-up]

Reading the 10th Anniversary edition of American Gods, with the extra stuff in it. It's been so long since I've read it, and my memory sucks, so I'm not actually sure which parts are the extra parts. But, really enjoying it.

 

[SerSiward]

Started with a Feast for Crows and Dance with Dragons using this guide.

So it's more like A Feast for Dragons

 

[Tonyblack]

I'm rereading Snuff as a prequel to rereading Raising Steam.

 

[pip]

I've started reading Harlequin by Bernard Cornwell (I assume Tony will approve )

 

[Tonyblack]

Oh yes!

 

[pip]

I also have Vagabond and Hereric sitting on the shelf

 

[Tonyblack]

Harlequin was renamed The Archer's Tale in the US in case people thought it was one of their Harlequin romances (think Mills and Boon). :doh:

 

[pip]

Ouch. Why . Archers tale is a crap name
