    i had a right laugh looking through the bookdepository scifi/fantasy section - serious amount of trashy vampire novels involving "passion" or "release" or somethin :D

    Everyone jumping on the Twilight bandwagon :pac:

    Yeah, the second book is definitely better

    I've read most of Hobbs alright, I like her :D. I do still like Canavan's other series (BM and Aot5) but maybe I'll take them off my re-read list so that I can remember them fondly with rose tinted glasses :P

    I really liked the Black Magician trilogy. Read a book and a half of Age of the Five and gave up though, they just didn't grab me. Haven't read her more recent stuff.

    Getting there. Just that the truth generally comes out in drink and somethings can't be taken back.

    I didn't like the first one much, just wondering if the second is worth bothering with.

    First one was a bit weird or something.

    If you didn't like the first one you certainly won't like the second.

    Stick with the BBC adaptation.

    Basically more of the same, but to be honest, not really as good.

    If you enjoyed the first, then take a look. ;)

    I'd agree about sticking with the BBC Sherlock, it's by far the best adaptation!

    Best of luck with that. I'm still living at home because I can't afford to leave. It's pretty damn soul-crushing. Unless you're willing to work 50 hours a week for free for 9 months (after which you'll be turfed back on the dole again), the only way to eek a living is to create your own work.

    On that note, if anyone wants crap music lessons in the Dublin area, PM me :pac:

    retail or waitressing or baby sitting! Im flexible for any of them!

    I think the worst thing about all of it is that you need experience to get any jobs anywhere!

    By the time i was able to work recession was in full swing and there was no jobs going! So i never got proper experience to be honest, just you know work experience for school!! :mad:

    I have been trying for so long and its ridiculous!

    You just need one break to get you out there. I remember that feeling when I first started looking for jobs at 16. Ended up working as a carer in a nursing home which in turn got me interested in nursing.

    Fingers crossed for you!

    I feel like i should have my own Concern tv ad... "Just 2 music students a week will ensure Fluorescence can afford food. 6 will allow her to pay for rent and internets. 15 students will ensure Fluorescence can save enough for next year's education. Have a heart - let Fluorescence teach you music!"

    The best thing about these kinds of jobs (from your point of view) is that they're very transient in nature; people constantly leave retail and catering jobs all the time so you should keep applying to the same places on a regular basis, you never know when something might open up. If you're looking in Dublin, keep an eye out for places whose business will pick up with summer tourist business as well, even museums, galleries, tour groups etc.

    I have to move all my stuff home from Dublin tomorrow, the effort of it! So glad to see the back of that apartment though, it was not fun!

    Steak for dinner, om noms :)

    None right now, but I'm hoping to start in the next few months. I reckon I'll offer tin-whistle, flute and piano to grade 5 level and theory to grade 8. I need to iron out a lot of details first before I could plausibly start :o

    that was Year One, also awful. 10,000 BC has ridiculously pretty cavemen fighting sabretooth tigers, or something, I watched it while only half paying attention to it, twas awful.
