Nearly done with Vampire Willow. She needs some hair tweaking, is all. Would now like to make Sadako dolly with well.

Watched The Ring avec ma mere, who actually asked "Are we gonna watch the other movie?" halfway through dinner.

"If you want to. I don't want to make you."

Her face fell a bit. "Did you want to watch the Greg Kinnear thing?"

"I'd rather watch The Ring."

She perks up. "Good!"

So I went in to FF through the torture track.

She alternated between watching bug-eyed and nodding off for a few seconds at a time.

"Are there any others?"

"Not in English."

"Oh."

"Maybe they'll get released here, though."

"Oh! Good."

I decide I won't tell her about the Japanese TV series.

Re Bertie books that you wrote about before... - you are so right, how could I forget The Mating Season! And I forgot Joy in the Morning - and Right Ho Jeeves with Tuppy/Hildebrand Glossop & the steak & kidney pie! I have all my PG books nicely put out, but I cannot find the tapes anywhere, it's driving me bloody mad. I want to watch Monkey, which is on at 1.45am, and I planned to watch Jeeves & Wooster until then... grr...

Crap. Now I have to go read all the books again.

We are a completely Monkey-free country. *sobs* Yet you send us Graham Norton. You bastards.

Yeah, Graham Norton is an effective deterrent, alright. We should have sent him to Baghdad & hoped for the worst...

Monkey-free? My God, that is harsh. Mind you, we suffer ourselves in that we have a constant supply of squalourific unwatchable soaps, whereas you have the high-camp genius of Mr Spelling. I still pine for Sunset Beach with Father Fit et al. Even though I actually have most of it on tape. Oh God, I don't believe I just admitted that...

Sunset Beach?

YOU SICK BASTARD!!!

We get...um...Coronation Street? Eastenders? Eastenders, I think. The ads are hilarious, especially since we can't understand a word any of them say.

I don't think Mr Spelling has anything on at the moment. Possibly he went to look for a beer and got lost in his house.

Heh, we don't really understand what they say on Eastenders either! I can't bear watching it... it makes me feel depressed & unstable. Whereas Spelling shows are so camp and perky and always written on about 12 different levels of understanding... and they always star one of his freakishly ugly and untalented offspring. And an over the hill Brit-flick actress. Oh, I do miss Sunset Beach.

Mr Spelling's house is quite something, he had a pictorial in Hello! magazine, it made me laugh. It's a shame moguls no longer have taste, and Pickfair & San Simeon are probably demolished...

Hee. Wish my mom was that unintentionally funny. It makes for good postin'.
