Oh no, Covid just doesn't quit, does it. Hope you are feeling better soon.

It is lovely part of the world. I went to Nelson Bay for the first time in over 30 years last year and couldn't believe how it had changed. Still a great place to holiday.

J R Ewing is defeated.

Next monster is Cactus Cat from Urban Legends

Great going Team Rock.

I think the letters Y and Z are trickier than finding the colour or the instruments. But I'm sure we'll get them covered.

Is this white enough for colour cover? When I do Tineye and untick the boxes it is showing 73% white."

Looks good."

Thanks, it covers Y, Z and white. Now if only an instrument is mentioned...

Is this white enough for colour cover? When I do Tineye and untick the boxes it is showing 73% white.

Great. I’m just getting for a flight so I hope to knock over a short one. Happy reading everyone. 😀

Not long now until we start. I’m just trying to finish today but we are leaving to go on holidays for a week today- just a two hour drive up the coast..."

Have a great time, Karen.

I have volunteered for DQ's for the next BOM and will probably volunteer for the November ones too. 😊

Great to know. I’m sure if we need an instrument on the cover I’d be up for reading one of yours. What name are they published under?

Thanks for the great ideas. 😊

Hi Silje, lovely to be on a team again with you.

What are the things to do in Bergen in April? We have a couple of days to get from Oslo to Bergen before getting on the ferry.

Sandworm has been sent to a sandy grave.

New monster is Jabberwock from the Literary Wheel.

Happy hunting.

Wow, Elisabeth, The Easybeats. Aussie Rock pioneers. Who doesn't love Friday on my Mind. When I was in high school we had INXS play right at the beginning of their career. Some great artists there, when we're in Norway next year there is a Blues festival in Trondheim which my husband is really looking forward to. He leans more to the Blues and Soul.

So lovely to see you all - some new faces and some old friends!

OMG.. That's another of my favourites.. even the Celine Dion version. About 10-15 years ago my husband surprised me with tickets to go see her which must have been love as he's not a fan! She can oversing at times but boy did she belt out that song. It was amazing.

Looks like a lot of us are on the same page with long hair 80's rock. 💕

That's great. I had a look and I'm a bit light on white covers. A few of them looked white till I ran them through Tin Eye and they came up as grey.

Hi everyone,

Good to see familiar faces and some new ones. I'm from NSW in Australia, and spend my time between Sydney and our dairy farm in southern NSW. Mum of 3 and Nanna of 6 which keep me very busy.

I love Team Challenges and can get very enthusiastic about searching, pretty much will read anything to fit a task, and boy I've read some duds! But its all part of the fun.

Apart from my family and reading my other passion is travelling. Next year I've got trips to Norway and Japan planned which are both new destinations and can't wait.

I love ROCK and especially power ballads of the 80's and 90's much to my family's horror, LOL. The last show I went to was Queen featuring Adam Lambert pre covid which was amazing.

My favourite Rock songs are Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses, Living on a Prayer, Bon Jovi, Gone Away, Offspring and favourite song of all time is Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. And guilty pleasure is Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler. (My family won't let me live that one down!)

Let's play..

Hyde by Craig Russell

Edward Hyde has a strange gift-or a curse-he keeps secret from all but his physician. He experiences two realities, one real, the other a dreamworld state brought on by a neurological condition.

When murders in Victorian Edinburgh echo the ancient Celtic threefold death ritual, Captain Edward Hyde hunts for those responsible. In the process he becomes entangled in a web of Celticist occultism and dark scheming by powerful figures. The answers are there to be found, not just in the real world but in the sinister symbolism of Edward Hyde’s otherworld.

He must find the killer, or lose his mind.

A dark tale. One that inspires Hyde’s friend . . . Robert Louis Stevenson.

Sylar bites the dust.

New Monster is J R Ewing from Dallas.
