THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I LOST MY COPY OF "RAIDERS OF THE LOST CAR PARK"!



Spooky

[QUOTE=GurS]Haven't read the Toyminator as yet, I'm in the middle of the Brightonomicon at the moment...

And as much as I like the fact that he's spreading his writing talents, his best work is still the Brentford Trilogy books (though I'm still to read knees up mother earth). Them, or Snuff Fiction.[/QUOTE]

Aren't there 7 of them?

Unfortunately, the only ones I've read are Bunnies, the Toyminator and the Witches of Eastwick (similar title). I want to get some more now though

Which would you recommend?

GurS 09-10-2006 08:03 PM

Withces of Chiswick, again it's pretty good, but his new style's a bit different from his old style...

Honestly, I'd just suggest going straight to the beginning of the Trilogy and starting with the Antipope. Best stuff he ever did, IMO. Or, of course, Snuff Fiction, which is also great (though it references some of the events from the Trilogy, so you may get the references in SF if you read the trilogy first).

Patrick O))) 09-10-2006 08:05 PM

lol I picked up the Antipope the other day, whilst toying with the idea of getting a Rankin or Small Gods

I went in on the offchance they'd have Claypool's book, but they didn't

GurS 09-10-2006 08:08 PM

Small Gods of Prachett, I assume?

Have you ever read 'Good Omens'? Bloody good book, and apparantly is being turned into a movie by Terry Gilliam (it's going to be his next project, or so wikipedia says)

Patrick O))) 09-10-2006 08:11 PM

Aye, Pratchett

Who's Good Omens by? Not heard of it to be honest.

Though I like Gilliam, [I]some[/I] of his films are somewhat wanting ...

Not Time Bandits though. [I]Never[/I] Time Bandits :cool:

GurS 09-10-2006 08:13 PM

Good Omens was a book co-written by Prachett and Neil Gamien, some comic-y guy who's apparantly quite well known. Anyway, bloody brilliant book, it is.

GurS 09-10-2006 08:17 PM

Bed time for me now.


Soupy twist!

Night dude

I'm off too

Night thread :wave:

Lord Abortion 09-10-2006 08:25 PM

I'll be going then...

O what a rogue and peasant slave am I,
Is it not monstrous that this player here,
But in a fiction, in a dream of passion,
could force his soul so to his own conciet,
that from her working all his visage wann'd;
Tears in his eyes, distraction in's aspect,
a broken voice, and his whole function suiting,
with forms to his conceit?
...and all for nothing...

[QUOTE=Kalmah]Why don't you go back to sleep?
If you have somewhere to be, you might end up falling asleep at some stage in the day, it can happen[/QUOTE]

Because I am at work :(

This sucks balls

Phill 09-11-2006 05:36 AM

Ha ha probably not. I'll just end up randomly falling asleep some point today. I have coffee and Paracetamol to keep me going so far :)

AG 09-11-2006 05:37 AM

Omfg, I just got my eye drops in my mouth. IT TASTES HORRIBLE!

If I'd have known I'd have never put the stuff in my eye, how can something so bad tasting be so...so...curing.

Phill 09-11-2006 05:38 AM

How did you manage to get them in your mouth?

Does anyone remember that Purple medicine you got when you were younger?

That was hella tasty

Zombies Ate My Neighbours 09-11-2006 05:39 AM

Calpol.

Phill 09-11-2006 05:47 AM

So I have been on hold with Orange for 20 mins now and they still don't know what is going on with my order.

>_>

Not cool.

Lord Abortion 09-11-2006 05:51 AM

Eyedrops are horrible, worse however is when you get a nasal thing for hayfever or whatever and you snort up too much of it and it leaves a disgusting taste in your throat.
