Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9986 comments I am in Warwickshire now, using my friends wifi, its just after midday here, I am going to try and stay awake until a decent hour this evening to beat jet lag. Feeling good right now, but I know that when the urge to sleep hits, it hits so hard and fast I can practically not get undressed and brush my teeth.

Veronica ⭐️ | 2386 comments Just to let everyone know I may look a little different, I've had a makeover, a new profile pic it's so small though. I've always loved Veronica from the Archie comics.


message 22210: by Veronica ⭐️ (new)

Veronica ⭐️ | 2386 comments Yes it comes up really tiny. Will have to have a play around with the picture tonight to see if I can enlarge it.

The Archie comics were great Veronica! Your profile pic is great:)


message 22212: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4436 comments Isn't it funny when a friend changes their profile pic, it throws you for a while. Love yours Veronica, it's small when on my phone etc, but I'm on the computer, meant to be working (not looking at GR!!!) and it's nice and big and bright :)

Sally906 | 89 comments The Archie comics and Casper comics were must buys for me in my early teens.

Do they still print them?

I'm really not sure. I remember getting them, while on holidays with my Nan, from the comic exchange. Good times!

Just back from seeing Annie Barrows at a Dymock's lunch in the city. What a lovely lady. She came and sat at our table before lunch and chatted away and signed books quite happily. She told us the history of bothThe Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and her latestThe Truth According to Us. That's all with lunch and champagne. All good:)

Vicki Tyley (vickityley) | 1732 comments Lunch, champers AND chatting with Annie Barrows -- it can't get much better than that, Phrynne. :)


message 22219: by Neko (new)

Neko Sally - Archie comics are still printed! Casper i don't know but possibly second hand book store might have both. otherwise Archie is usually found in newsagents or comic stores.

@Brenda @Julie -Thanks guys :)

What on earth has happened to GR? I came here and all the newest posts were on the bottom of the page instead of the top like they usually are...Had to change it with pressing the little arrow key next to 'date' to up but it also placed the comment box up the top of the page..so strange.
