  • I got mine on Thursday, on page 418 but do keep having to pause to do my deep breathing exercises. Right HH, enough lip biting back to the script before the sound of ripped foil is deafening!

    Morning

    Apologies for the confusion. It's not page 418, just illustrating how much I had read since I got the book Thursday. Just sitting down for last 60 pages of the book. Maintain my original view, very repetitive, first few chapters are painfully obvious but still hooked. Have to admit am fascinated about the control and surrender.:eek:. Perhaps CCCS are my Mr Grey? :rotfl:


    Incidentally PG I rarely enjoy blockbusters that get lots of hype. Love coming across across a low budget good english film. I tried for years to get into sex and the city without success. Then a pal begged me to sit and watch a full series back to back just before the film came out and it clicked somehow!

    Hope you had a better night's sleep. Not sure if it's this filth I am reading or his gruelling schedule but I did spare a thought for Mr PG when I woke just after 4 this morning.

    Have a good start to the day folks.

    I agree, and the 'oh my...' and 'inner godess' are wearing a bit thin :rotfl: but me being the bored housewife i am, is enjoying all the smut nonetheless :D (also noticed a few grammatical errors....will let it slide though ;))

    Hope you've enjoyed the last few chapters! :)

    oh and edited to say.....i had to have a little giggle at the CCCS being your Mr Grey, they are also mine! I thought they were supposed to be monogamous....not impressed :eek: lol
