I have decided to do a Hollyoaks picspam. I'm genuinely not trying to convert anyone to Hollyoaks, I'm just really enjoying it at the moment and I don't really know anywhere I can go and talk about it. And the events of the past few days are slightly too brilliant to go unremarked upon. And, if there's one thing you can rely on Hollyoaks for, it's generally to be quite pretty. So picspam it is, underneath the cut.

Things that are great:

  • [livejournal.com profile] cakesy wrote me fic. She wrote me AMAZING fic. Oh my god.


  • My The Other Guys DVD came! Woo! On a related note, it's really a shame when you have a film you quite love, and most of the quotes on the DVD case are from The Sun or the News Of The World. Currently this is true of both The Other Guys and New Town Killers. But happily not Sharkwater, which is also on my desk. I'm assuming that the other dvds used the Sun and News Of The World quotes because they LOVED them and gave them five star reviews, whereas other reviews from better sources were slightly less glowing. Hopefully. I still love them despite The Sun though.


  • I found a new animal to go on my Animals That Aren't As Bad As Popular Culture Would Have You Believe list: vultures! I was watching Zoo Days on Fiver yesterday, and a bit about Colchester Zoo's vultures came on, and it was all about how friendly and inquisitive they were, hopping around to see what everyone was doing and nibbling things to see what they were. The whole episode is actually on Youtube here, with the vulture bit starting at around 12.49. It's sponspored by Five and after the break, so you have to put up with a few stupid adverts. But it's worth it if you like LOVE. My favourite bit is probably when the keeper assures the camera people that they're not in any danger because vultures "don't have the power to kill". Or the bit with the vulture that thinks he's a human. Oh.

    ETA: After trying that youtube link and trying to get to the bit I'm talking about for the past ten minutes or so it's mostly just not working and making me cry, so I won't judge you at all if you try the link and then give up. I'm not ordering you to watch it. I won't hate you if you don't. Except that I'll probably hate you a little bit for not going through what I've been through. But mostly not.


  • The welovehollyoaks.com December Brendanwatch is up. I will back soon. I am currently dead.

So. We've been having some problems in our house with the internet for the past few months. My dad has a wireless modem which he uses in his office, and I can get internet from in my room upstairs on my laptop. But every now and then my internet wouldn't connect and I'd have to come downstairs, or sit on the stairs and do it, and sometimes it wouldn't pick up a connection until I left my laptop in my dad's office, near the router, for 15 or 20 minutes. And sometimes my dad's computer couldn't get the internet either, for a hour or so, and a few weeks ago my dad was changing some lights/light fittings and he had to turn all the fuses off in the house for half an hour or so, and then the next day he had to do it again, and every time he did the router would stop working for about 5 or 6 hours, I think. So he decided to try to solve the problem and get a new router. Which is installed, and working fine, and he's getting the internet on his computer, and on his laptop, but for some reason my laptop is not picking it up. He thinks it might be something to do with my laptop only picking up G-something, and the new router is transmitting N-something. And maybe we can do something so that it picks up N-something as well, but we don't know yet - my laptop is about 7 years old at this point. But basically at the moment, I can only go on the internet in his office. Which, when he's in the house, he's not always happy about. So basically, my internet access is a bit restricted at the moment, and I may not be around as much as I have been. Which in terms of how much I've been posting and commenting will probably not seem very different. But in terms of how much I've been on and reading, will be VERY DIFFERENT. :(

Anyway. So many things to say. I saw Casualty over the weekend. Casualty )

And I have to go now and watch Hollyoaks. OH HOLLYOAKS. It's still as kind of shit as ever, but at the moment Ste is busy not approving of any of Brendan's criminal activities, but apparently pretending to be him when he thinks no-one's looking. And Brendan is treating Ste like a son, and a hooker, rolled into one. IT'S A BIT BRILLIANT.
