Great answers. I couldn't resist doing this too - and I'm way behind writing reviews as well!
You did a wonderful job with this. I don't know which of your answers I like the best!
Just so you know, I would comment more on your blog (and many others) but that captcha thing to prove that I'm not a robot does NOT get on well with my eyes. Sometimes I have to re-do the blasted thing 3-4 times, and by then my mood has drastically altered! :-(
What fun!
Margaret: Huge fun... if I see these on anyone's blog I always have a go. There's usually one going round at Christmas I think.
Cathy: Thank you!
The captcha thing is horrible, I know. I've removed it again now, it was only a temporary measure to try to stem the tide of spam for a few weeks.
Penny: It was! :-)
you do well with these things..I especially like number 6.. there would be a LOT of killing here lately what with election coming soon!
Pat: I love the challenge of finding just the right title.
Your election is fascinating from our perspective. Not so much from your pov I suspect...
Thanks, Cath. I used to have a problem with spam, but I noticed that almost all the buggers liked to try to hide their junk in old posts, so I set my blog up to need approval on any comments left on posts that are more than 14 days old. Once in a while, someone slips through the gate, but it's very rare. Blogger has stepped up their spam filter, and it works well.
Hi Cath,
What some great answers and a fantastic opportunity for me to see a whole selection of the books you have read and enjoyed this year ... I have added a couple more to my list that got through the net the first time round!
I am not so much behind on my reviews, as not being able to find the time to read very much or very quickly, right now. I think a month or so locked alone in a soundproof room, might just make a start ... no chance of that happening though!
Hope that your family time was enjoyable, catch up soon.
Yvonne
Cathy: My spam seems to be the more modern posts but thinking about it, maybe the 14 day thing might catch mine too. I'll try that I think. Anything's worth a try as it's coming in again fast and furious.
Hi Yvonne! I haven't reviewed every book I've read this year so maybe that's why they didn't come to your attention.
Sorry to hear you're not finding time to read much at the moment. I seem to found my reading muse again, and am pleased about that.
Yes, last weekend was lovely, thanks. Quieter this week as I'm down with a cold and feel like cossetting myself. Ie. sitting quietly with a good book and feeling sorry for myself.
Have a nice weekend!
Great fun!
Geranium Cat: I'm hoping there'll be another one going around at Christmas or in the New year.
