They are showing the adverts for the American Sherlock thingy here …

I am going to hate it, aren't I?

In other news, the lovely [livejournal.com profile] theodoraleft left many thanks for everyone who helped out with the Thanksgiving shopping last month. She also left the thanks last month, but I have been writing stories about bamboo and compost and god knows what else and burning my thumb and learning to play Cole Porter in E flat on the ukulele, not to mention very, very crap at doing anything in a timely fashion. Thanks, though! SHE was totally timely!

For anyone worried about December 21st, the world has not ended here in the future. It won't end over there in the past, either. Though if I have to go into the shopping centre opposite my work to buy salad for lunch and brave the bonkers crowds again tomorrow, it may end for one or two very specific people. I feel absolutely certain there must be a way to commit homicide by red pepper, if one is sufficiently motivated! Probably best to pack some extra porridge …

Keep out of the madding crowds, dear flist! If you haven't bought your gifts yet, tell everyone they were delayed in the post and buy them in the sales!

No idea, but I have no desire to watch an American version of British icons because I get sick of American TV taking British things and remaking them in their own image! Ooops, sorry, got on my high horse there! :-)

As to the end of the world, at least in NZ we'll be the first to know about it!

I read somewhere they were going to remake Go Girls, which just won't work at all! I'm not sure why they do this, as Americans are generally very good at dealing with other cultures' stories, but for some reason TV people act as though they're not.

And here we are at 9.20pm, still fine!
