Read the "House" books, which... were readable. Tried the "Butlerian Jihad" next which was... awful. HOWEVER and possibly of great interest to some, a guy at work has brought in the "Uncorrected Bound Proof - Not For Resale" copy of "House Atreides", which seems regular from the outside, but inside is apparently xeroxed. If this fills anyone with incredible excitement and lust for it, tell me, he'd sell it for a few quid. These days, I almost exclusively drink cider. Especially Bulmers pear cider, yum. |

His films are like being transported into strange and beautiful alternate realities where everything is more colourful, people talk cooler and things unfold like children's storybooks. I'm surprised when critics say his films are heartless. I don't think they are at all. Also, I like cats too, though I am mildly allergic to them. Bah.

That high bit of the M1 when there isn't much traffic around on an early morning. Actually driving anywhere at about 5am on a summers morning. A couple of years ago I drove down to Bath to be there for 6.30am and it was bliss. Then I got the run of an empty Co-Op which was fun. |

Or driving or walking around the deserted streets pretending that you're in the start of a zombie film when everyone else is in the pub or at home watching the England football team get beaten. |

I think that's only certain sorts of pear cider. There shoud be some sort of global communications network that we could look this sort of thing up on. |

Perry is not all cider. I don't know enough about perry itself but I think most is fizzy but not all? I know there is fizzy perry. But then not all fizzy ciders are perry. I must have cider now. |

I believe that Perry is British Pear Cider. If it's not from Britain in can't be called Perry. Or something. Kinda like champagne. |
