    oh I gave in and bought them all off Amaz0n for my Kindle as they worked out cheaper than buying them separately.

    oh well, I've got them now so I'll probably read them, unless they bore the pants off me :rotfl:

    I'll answer to anything, I'm not fussy :D.

    Lovely of her to leave the notes! Thoughtful girl :A

    Me too ! She is a thoughtful girl, and I am missing her so much already, so each time something has happened today or I have thought of something I need to tell her , I have sent her a text message for her to read when she gets home incase I have forgotten everything by then !! God I sound like a total nutter dont I !!?? I do remember writing DD1 a little diary of our week when she went to the IOW, so I think I may do the same for DD2. :D

    Belle, I thought exactly the same as you, if you can be bothered to read a few pages back in the diary ( which if I was you I wouldnt rush to do !!!) , I was convinced HH was talking about a rude book called Takeaway Secrets to Rival 50 Shades, rushed off to Google as you did to find myself bitterly disappointed ......but I really think you have the makings of a new novel, or a movie just for DFW there . Just racking my brains who play the leading man or a movie set in a Chinese Takeaway ?!!:rotfl:

    Granny, you are such a naughty Granny. Dont you know that Grannies shouldnt read such naughty books, let alone being greedy and buying three at once !!! :rotfl:

    So HH, spill the beans, which book is your preference ?!!! :D

    DFW .....Channing Tatum is yummy. I was reading something the other day, where they were asking people to vote as to who would play the leading man in the film version. Apparently the main man in the book is ginger, so maybe we need to attack poor Channing with the Sun In !!! xx I will pin him down and you can spray !

    Well one thing's for certain, the characters in the books have no pants on either.

    My 85-year-old mother in law, who was shocked when she borrowed Jilly Cooper's Riders from me, came home from Tesco with the first two 50 Shades books on Saturday. I am *dreading* some of the conversations she's going to start over the next couple of weeks!

    OMG !!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    You MUST keep us informed of her thoughts on this !!! I cant wait !

    Our family clubbed together last week and bought my 75 year old mum a Kindle for her birthday, but we havent dared tell her about 50 Shades as yet !!

    Oh and Welcome by the way . lovely to see you, please stick around !!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    We must remember that dear DFW is a good girl, NEVER has too much too drink, NEVER dances on bar tops and I'm sure has no such thoughts in her head at all of seeing the lovely Mr Tatum minus his clothing !!! :D
