Hi Laura, just finished episode 6. Started 7 but going to finish it tomorrow. It's very good, great casting for some roles. Seeing Boramir (sp) playing Ned is a bit strange.
Megan, you could start reading the first book or watch the series, I think reading the first book will make the series so much more enjoyable. There is lots of characters and houses to remember.

I'll borrow the book off him.
We're trying our best to take the young adult novel Burn Bright, by Marianne de Pierres, to international markets. US, UK etc.There is a great author interview and petition on the blog Strangemore
Read the interview and sign the petition to help our poor deprived friends get their hands on a copy of this brilliant book.
Breaking the OS market isn't an easy thing for any author and Marianne deserves our help to get her fabulous Young Adult Novel out there.
Michael, here is your daily dose of Harry Potter: I saw it again today...and cried. Not as much as the first time, but I still shed a tear for Lupin & Tonks. That is all.
Glad to see finally a separate thread for bloody HP, might be able to read something decent here now. LOL!LOL!
Mod
You guys would miss them if they actually left
In fact I reckon you'll actually miss Harry too when all his movie hype dies down
Mod
I'll only miss Harry Potter Lego games..Easy achievements. Otherwise I never caught the HP bug in general.
Mod
Neither did I Laura...
Just finished watching the Game of Thrones series. Last 4 episodes back to back.Very well done.

I shall be seeing hp again tomorrow...for free :)
What about my too kind? I dont think I own one. I think you mean "you're"-as in: 'you are'.
Sorry, it had to be said. Forgive?
Ive seen it twice Melanie! Why are you seeing it for free?

Awesome Lee, now read the books ;)
KL oh I have already read the first 4. I would recommend anyone read GoT before watching the series. You'll get so much more enjoyment knowing who is who.
I've read book one, but I have all year to read book two :-P
Just thought I would let you all know, I just finished cooking a large pot of bacon hock/bone soup, enought to last a couple of days, including taking some to work. Mmmmmm!!
And no dirty utensils to do as I rinse & place in the dishwasher as I go (-:

I whipped up some home-made orange juice the other day, if we're talking about food and beverages. It was very delicious.

Congrat's Carmel. I already know I'm too unco to do a zumba class. Go girl! Hope you can walk today.
Wow, hope you are ok mate. Take it easy, lie on the couch and read.
Do you have someone keeping an eye on you Michael? I hope it wasn't anything too serious?
Mod
Wow Michael...hope you are ok? Do you know why you collapsed? Hope you will mend quickly...at least you're on holidays and can totally rest up...take care :)
Mod

How are you feeling today Carmel....hobbling a bit;D I've thought about zumba, but I'm never game enough, so well done to you...did you enjoy it, that's the main thing?
Hope you are feeling ok now! Not to put any pressure on you but that To Read list is piling up :-P
Hahahahaha! I won't read it then. I am fatigued enough!
Hmmmmmmm actually that isn't such a bad idea. I could use a couple of days bed rest away from the family. If all it takes is reading Before I Go to Sleep I could be persuaded.
It's that need to finish the book before sleeping that causes fatigue
O NO Michael! hope everything is all good...see this this is what happens when you stop reading and leave the house!
@carmel you seem to faired better then me after my zumba class...first one I went I almost died!

Ah! Michael...Thats not good! Take it easy and get better soon!!! Im dead tired now...Just got back from a sleepover at a friends house. Didnt actually sleep until 5AM. But it was a lot of fun. Very gossipy XD
Im going to bed around 7ish, or else my sleeping pattern will be messed up. Are you feeling better now?
Oh dear....Mum has hidden the rum & raisin dark chocolate again. Ive looked eveywhere but can't find it.
Mod
Poor Jess...I can sympathise! :D

That, and there was too little of the Order. I wanted more footage of members of the Order vs Death Eaters. There was too little of Tonks, Kingsley, Lupin and Mad Eye.
