I read the 1st one and was underwhelmed. It was OK but I didnt feel any urge to read on.

Hermione lit the votive candles on her night stand, followed by a stick of incense. She turned off the light, turned up the R&B music and turned toward Harry. She removed his glasses and stared longingly into his eyes. "You have such beautiful eyes. I'm not sure why it took me so long to...

HI folks! Anyone else dowloaded Google Earth???? What a cool programme!!!!! :)

I've made a start, hope to finish this weekend if i get the chance? :) having a quiet night in after a long week. Finished John Pilger's "The New Rulers of the World" just in time to read Potter. having a few beers just now, anyone else? :)

This is a good idea, i'll certainly enter a contribution now that I have the bug back. :) 1500 words is maybe a bit short though sirmyk but buts your call.

thanks Wabbit. Thats fair enough and I understand now. :)

but so many books have politics and religion as their main themes. I take it as long as people exercise common sense its ok?

discussion of religion and politics is not allowed. Is this the case? If so are there any other banned topics I should know about?

you couldnt be blamed for picking rangers. nobody could. after all, they are the club with 132 years of unsurpassed dignity, eh stewart? ;) :)

Thanks Stewart. This is just the opening to something I have in my head and I'll probably have a go at expanding on it. So it is intended to go somewhere. With regards to the numbers its a nasty habit I seem to have developed but i suppose its easily enough fixed. I blame text messages! :D

yes its a sad story. you should be ashamed of yourself in my opinion. It seems that you can only tolerate people with the same political beliefs and tastes as yourself rather than accepting people for who they are.

error. posted twice by mistake.

I enjoyed that Stewart. Good standard of writing too. I'm sure if you rewrote it in places you could make it into an excellent short story or expand on it further. The concept is good and you demonstrate a competent standard of writing as well as more than a dash of flair.

Waterstones and Borders for me.

I havent written anything since I left school 8 years ago but I noticed this section of the site and I thought I'd have a wee go at contributing. This could well be really terrible stuff but I know i'm a bit rusty. Here goes anyway. He woke with a start just as the savage tone of the...

I watched this recently and thought it was a wonderful film. Depp's perfromance is just amazing. He even delivers a very good scottish accent! I think he's the finest actor of his generation. Anyone else seen this film?

I think he's a screen legend and is an under-rated actor. It seems to be fashionable to say you hate Tom Cruise at the moment but I think there is a lot of bandwagon jumpers who say this. 2 words. Top Gun! What a film! :) He's also been excellent in films such as Jerry McGuire and...

no grand purpose, just a bit of light entertainment.

Although, because of the Scottish and more significantly Irish people all over the world Celtic are one of the biggest clubs in the world and are bigger than most english teams as are Rangers.

yep. theres 2 big teams in scotland, Celtic and Rangers and nobody else really stands a chance so its celtic or rangers every year who wins the championship. England being 10 times the size of Scotland, they have a bigger number of big teams and the league is more competitive and they can...
