    Evening all. Greetings from Planet Tiredness. I don't mind the morning part of commuting, or the darkness, but public transport is fun...

    Anything good on the kindle, Pem? I've just started Life of Pi.

    What's the cure for cold sores these days - vitamin C, rub a cat on your head..?

    I'm reading Game of Thrones, the first one. Thankfully I have it hard copy :)

    Public transport is appalling!!

    Lysine. Bucket loads of it. You'll get it in most pharmacies or health food shops. It really is brilliant :)

    Just watched episode one of series one of Game of Thrones with my friend earlier, I really liked it! The only catch is it's his boxset in his house :D

    I can vouch for the magical effects of lysine. Unfortunately Malawi is not big on the health food sector! So bucket loads of acyclovir it is!

    If I won the lotto I'd go to see them. Trips cost a couple of grand for a few days/a week.

    Polar bears are my favorite animal, they're so cool!

    Im still all aches and pains today, awake since half 4 trying to stretch out my back which is in bits. Shouldn't have napped at 5pm for an hour I guess!

    I started reading them last year and I've just started the last book.

    I found it awful hard to read the first two because I'd seen the series but they are really good.

    I was the same but opposite :pac: I didn't want to read the books as I wasn't too keen on the series, I saw a few episodes but didn't really like it, loving the book though :)

    I noticed a one direction song was posted in here - that should be a bannable offence imo!

    Although it does allow me to post this bit of comedic brilliance:

    Ah, what a wonderful phrase. Heard the song years before seeing the film.

    As for Game of Thrones, I don't want to read the books as I'm enjoying the tv series.

    Aha! I'm jealous though, I love walking in the frost and taking a few pics. Hopefully it'll be good and frosty at the weekend, getting all wrapped up to go for a walk in the park sounds great!
