Hey bon…I’ve got a talking book out from the library with Richard as the narrator….called Lords of the North, by Bernard Cromwell…I just love listening to his voice (would be better to see him but you can’t have everything!)

Oooh.. thanks, I’ll have to check my library for that one :D

Maybe I can find a good phrase to use as my mobile ring tone??? hehehe

it’s a pretty violent story set in the 9th century…but loosely based on fact and interesting..a bit of info about the story

Sounds like a good way to pass the time :) I could try out audio books once I’m healthy enough to get back on public transport, I guess. If it’s really engrossing I might miss my stop though :)

Hey bon…I’m up to disc 8…oh he is clever with the voices…..as I said before the story is a bit violent (the character is a 9th century warrior) but surprisingly quite interesting.

One of the main reasons I like talking books is because of the voice characterisations that the narrators come up with. In this one Richard does everything from male, female, danish, scottish, irish, english, yorkshire etc. So cool

Morning VG – well arvo for you I guess.

I just finished re-reading the Harry Potter books a few days ago – I like to read them every now and again when I don’t want to bother my brain with anything too serious.

Now if Alan Rickman reads the audio books I don’t want to know… this could become an addiction :D

Nope, ABC is way behind. I think they’re only shown up to series 5, and RA is series 7.

It’s downloadable if you can be bothered – might even be available on DVD, too. Pretty sure Season 6 is, even though it hasn’t been on ABC yet.

DEFINITELY watch it when you can. Oh, the tattoos… it’s sinful ;)
