James Moran (Torchwood writer among other things) has blogged about the Torchwood preview. I'm mentioned in this blog as we dragged him to the bar after the screening where we chatted for a couple of hours. He is a lovely man and you should all bow down at his feet.

As before these photos (except 1) are unedited and resized by facebook so the quality is slightly lower than it could have been. A few full sized images may be posted later depending on how long this takes and how quickly they upload.

My photographs are taken from two different places; 1st half - 3rd row, 2nd half - front row.

Also I now have the full set list. Also got a towel which now belongs to Cat. Thanks to Daniel (percussion) for these :)

Now let's see whether I can remember how to code this properly...

You may or may not have noticed that I disappeared for a while, my reason? Gallivanting around the country.
Gallivanting you say? )



Had a great day, met some great people and then, to top it all, found out that my seat (block C row D 1)was actually front row! & the people in the other 2 seats didn't turn up so certain people may have commandeered them...

I may have taken too many photographs but I couldn't resist having worked out the manual settings on my camera.

The following photos are straight off my camera, resized by facebook and appear here completely unedited. The quality improves as you go down

Want my opinion/comments or the summary on any book listed then ask.


Ones I read before Feb 09 (mostly from sometime 2008). Will probably be updated with comments and other books - my stack of read books is too far away. *stretches* nope can't reach it.

1) Press Alt+Ctrl+Down

2) Press Alt+Ctrl+Up to fix it

3) This doesn't work on Jason Arnopps computer. He is upset. I am amused. Oh how I love Twitter

4) I has a twitter stalker, or a twalker. Her name is Jennie and she is an evil genius. Don't cross her or she'll fuck with your computer.

5) I have FINALLY defrosted from going to Donington Park on Sunday for the BTCC. Photos to come. Including one of the back of Jennie's head.

6) Trains shouldn't be so bloody expensive. I am going to Collectormania. Want to go to MCM and plan on going to LFCC & Hallowhedon. Still need to pay for trains to/from the Hub. Funds needed

7) On friday I will be old enough to drink alcohol in America. Not going so why do I care? Because I'm gonna be old. That's why.

8) John Barrowman & Daniel Boys on Friday too. Sexy times.

9) I want a cat. Really bad. I am the stereotypical old lady. I want an old cottage with lots of cats. And to live on my own. I want a cat, like George, to have conversations with, to curl up with and to share a slice of ham with. God I miss George. It's only been 8 or 9 years.

10) Should I get a long chunky fringe like this?

The tagging system on the community should make it a lot easier to find what you're looking for than when I only had the 'icons' tag on lj.

Yes I'm getting my twitter feed sent here. Apologises to anyone who finds it on their friends page before I get chance to lock it as private. I'm @Allieandra if anyone's interested. Feel free to add. My conversations tend to go off on tangents but they can be fun to jump on if you see something you wanna comment on.

Other than being a Twitter addict right now I've also realised nearly all my plans are Torchwood related.

My Plans:
11/05 - Tom Price in York
17/05 - British Touring Car Championship at Donington
22/05 - My Birthday
John Barrowman in Blackburn 
27/05 - John Barrowman in Harrogate
01/06 - John Barrowman in London
05/06 - Leeds Uni's Summer Ball
12/06 - Torchwood Preview screening in London
13/06 - Bramham Park Horse Trials (possibly)
14/06 - Bramham Park Horse Trials
20/10 - Franz Ferdinand in Leeds
23/10 - The Hub:3 in Birmingham
24/10 - The Hub:3
25/10 - The Hub:3
26/10 - The aftermath of the hub!

gURL.comI took the "handwriting personality" quiz on gURL.com
my handwriting personality is...
sensitive scripter

Your handwriting reveals you as a thoughtful, intellectual type who avoids fake people and places where there's lots of noise and crowds. You're probably the one people go to when they're feeling super sad. Read more...

I've not been commenting/posting much for a while as I have an ongoing computer problem. My laptop keyboard has broken so I'm using a wireless keyboard, which seems to like refusing to work and opening different things on the toolbar/menu bar when I press a key rather than typing a letter. Wow that was a long sentence. So yeah, still here, still reading but not commenting much (copy/pasting of individual letters in time consuming and irritating).

Hope everyone's good. Not long until new Torchwood now :D

It's coming even sooner for me as I've managed to get (read [livejournal.com profile] mrhapptits  bought me) a ticket for the preview screening on 12th June in London. I'm excited already!  Wonder which cast members other than John Barrowman will be there.

Reviews: (which I agree whole heartedly with)

'A fast-paced nail-biter... Compelling' The Times

'Unputdownable' Observer

'Kernick's best novel yet. I loved it, and gobbled it up as fast as possible' Independent on Sunday

'Gets you by the throat, shakes you all about, and won't let you go until you finish it about an hour later. Highly recommended to make a dull journey pass like greased lightening' Daily Mail

'Lives up to it's title... The pace is breakneck, the plot twists like a hooked eel and the unceasing violence makes you hot and cold at the same time. Phenomenal!' Evening Standard
