NOTES:
1. i'm pretty much on holiday now, so updates over the next few days will be at a reduced frequency. i fly to germany on tuesday. so i'll be out of the country, and most likely, off line for 10 days.
2. new DVDs - just picked up donnie darko and scarlet diva on sale. darko i saw in the cinema and quiet enjoyed. diva is new to me, but then it has asia argento, which is a selling point. sat and watched it last night. a little odd. more soon.
3. new books - i gave in, i bought quicksilver. probably won't take it on holiday, weight restrictions you know! picked up magnus mills "three to see the king", which my brother rates highly, and tibor fischers "collector's collector" for £1.99 each in oxfam. i also picked up a variety of books yesterday in a clearance book shop, includes matt thorne (dreaming of stangers?), eric garcia (casual rex), sara sheridan (the pleasure express), alex shakar (the savage girl), um, and a few others (yes, yes, i know, i am shocking!)
4. new graphic novels - been meaning to check out alan moore's promethea for ages. the only one of his serials for ABC that i bought in serial form is the league of extraordinary gentlemen. though eventually i picked up the top 10 trades. then laterly a tom strong trade. i've enjoyed them all. at last i picked up promethea. bought book 1 thursday, read it that night, went back and bought book 2 friday! it fits well with the likes of top 10, and i'm enjoying it a lot. but more later.
