Coming Soon: Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries

As as an established fan of the Phryne Fisher mysteries by Kerrie Greenwood, I was very pleased to hear that the series was being adapted for TV.

The series will be shown starting later in February (24th to be exact!) on Australian TV, and now we have a trailer to watch too!




Hat tip to Joanne from Booklover Book Reviews for pointing out the trailer!

I don't often watch Scrubs, but when I do I really enjoy it. Tonight I was at a friends place for dinner, and they were playing the episode which was all done like a musical, which I thought was lots and lots of fun, including this song!





I should try and watch more episodes really!

How to make me laugh until I cry

I am at home by myself tonight as my son is off staying at my sisters for the night, because it is school holidays. On the rare occasions when I am temporarily childless, I must confess I feel a little bit lost in terms of what to do with myself, unless I have specifically arranged to go out.

Tonight when I got home from work, I had a very average dinner and was just contemplating catching up on my feeds, when I noticed that Top Gear was on. Now, I think I have mentioned before that I really enjoy watching this British show, so much so that I have been overdosing on it a bit lately. I have recently purchased two DVDs of the show, and then tonight's episode was on the TV.

I don't know why, but the three hosts make me laugh until I am crying with their antics, and tonight was no exception.

One good thing is that I didn't feel quite so lost afterwards, having had a such a good belly laugh.

All of the parts of the episode are available on Youtube, but I thought I would embed the part that made me laugh the most! Warning: This episode was a bit controversial because of the jokes that Jeremy made.

If you have a spare half an hour, then enjoy!

Part 2

Part 3


If you only have 10 minutes or so, then this one is one of my absolute favourites - a particular highlight is the car wash scene at the end!

The only problem with all this laughing is that I am still not feeling 100% and so now I am also coughing!

So, I remembered that The Hogfather was on tonight. Unfortunately I missed the first 45 minutes because we were in the city doing Christmassy things, and then I fell asleep and have no idea how much I missed - at least half an hour I would think! I guess it is fair to say that it is going well so far! And, I have no idea when the next part of the series is being shown!

Note to self

Remember that the mini series of Terry Pratchett's The Hogfather is on TV on Sunday night!
