    I'm heading to Netflix soon where I'll browse for 2 hours without actually watching anything. I've ep 6 of cbb watched. It's weird because they've been in the house two weeks apparently so each episode covers a couple days. Edited to death. Very scripted in the diary room but I'm still loving the game play.

    It is so edited is right . I watch it when I go to bed , their droning on helps me to doze off for a an hour or two :D

    Wyrn , yes it is harrowing at times .
    Makes you wonder why they thought it was ok to kill someone , or was it really an accident as some of them claim .
    Remorse or taking responsibility for their actions can be sadly lacking in a lot of these programmes . Haven't seen this one before though . Sad :( .

    What did you think Mam? I really thought the young lad was going to be let out. I found myself kind of feeling sorry for him, bizarrely. The young girl though I wouldn't trust her at all. She didn't give two shltes.

    It was a very odd one with him I thought tbh . Why couldn't answer Suzannah when she asked him Why he had killed her ? He was still hiding something I thought ?
    And the judge who had to decide whether or not to uphold the life sentence , I felt sorry for him , he was obviously distressed about the whole thing . I don't think we heard half the details tbh .

    The girl , nope , nothing from her except pity for herself . What they did to the man they murdered was cold and heartless .

    I was without internet access for a full 24 hours and I just about survived with my sanity intact :D

    I put on survival of the fittest but gave up after ten minutes and read instead. Much more enjoyable.

    Ah I’d read the back of the cornflakes box if I was stuck for a book :o
    Best present I ever received was a kindle.
    Any recommendations for something new to read Mam?

    Survival of the fittest is just so boring. I’m surprised I made it to ten minutes tbh :D
    One of the girls had a fab pair of tear away/ popper trousers on that I want. That’s the best compliment I can muster for the show :D

    I just finished The Stand by Stephen King for the second time. I feel so empty now that it's finished cos it's such a long book and I get so engrossed in the characters :o

    I think I'll start Harry Potter again for the 8th or so time.

    I <3 my kindle. Signed up for Kindle unlimited for £7.99 a month. I reckon it'll be well worth it.

    I have an annual read through of Harry Potter, The Lord Of The Rings and Game Of Thrones. My OH is always mystified as to why I would want to keep reading the same material over and over.
    There was a recommended book on my kindle and I downloaded the sample chapter, it’s included free with kindle unlimited so I might try it for a month just to finish that book :o

    I’ve only read two Stephen king books, the most recent was under the dome. I found the ending quite underwhelming :(

    I do love LOTR but I couldn't read it every year, I'd prefer something a bit more sophisticated. I might break out my copy of the secret diaries of Adrian Mole aged 13 3/4

    Lol have done the same with HP and LOTR . I will read anything , apart from Mills and Boons aargh!!

    Glad you can gif again skip :D

    Although not quite as high brow, I did enjoy the world according to Norm series and diary of a wimpy kid that I borrowed from my son :o

    I’ve read the LOTR every year since I was 18, it’s tradition :D

    I will read nearly anything, I am partial to cheesy detective stories, especially if they are racing against time to stop a serial killer :D

    Only thing I haven’t managed to finish was the girl with the dragon tattoo. I know loads of people have it on their must read lists, I just couldn’t get into it :o and I’m one of the few who managed to read all three fifty shades books :eek: :p
