update

You can smell the fires from here. Anyone heard from [livejournal.com profile] zebra363 recently?

I realised yesterday that I couldn't remember the last time I read a Harry Potter fic, or even vaguely what it was about. So then I indulged in that brief mourning period you go through when you realise that that all consuming love for a particular fandom you had has finally gone, and while you will still continue to read and enjoy in that fandom, it will never be quite the same. And then I realised I couldn't rememeber the last time I read a fic at all. Even the ones recced by my flist with links provided!

I'm not worried though, it's not like this is the first time this has happened. It's just like riding a horse, or whatever, you know, not thinking about it too much in case performance anxiety sets in…

I have, however, managed to watch 30 episodes of 'The Champions' in the space of three weeks and am full of massive love for Craig/Richard/Sharron. I am willing to indoctrinate show anyone who's interested. *looks eager*

Have now moved on to 'The Persuaders' which was a bit of wrench, but I was soon reconciled after I was reminded just how CUTE and SLASHY Roger Moore and Tony Curtis are together. As in, walking around arm in arm all the time and calling each other 'my dear'. As in, one time they actually lie on opposite ends of the same couch with arms propped over each other's legs and drinking champagne....

Have also managed to fit in quite a lot of Work, some Entertaining, and am reading a BOOK. Also, scheduling dentist's appointments and REFRAINING FROM DRINKING MUDSLIDES cos of stupid antibiotics.

Persuaders, Champions, The Prisoner and Pros are all half price at Amazon UK. Also real cheap are Blakes7 s1 and s2 and 1st season Callan (woo hoo!)

But in fact the Persuaders is also available at Kmart here. Dragonfly bought it for me for Christmas. I don't know which is cheaper though (I'd guess Amazon)

aha! Thank you for the info. By coincidence, there's a Persuaders movie on Movie Greats tonight at 6.40, 'The London Conspiracy'.

Yes indeedly doodly! It's two episodes tacked together rather than a movie, so I'm not sure if it is in addition to the series or not. First bit is where Brett has to impersonate himself, and second bit is about Danny buying a little cottage out in the countryside. (awww...)

*is sad that you worked all day*
