I’ve just received Chapter 18 of Shadowrise, by Tad Williams, in the mail, and it’s really rather good.

- @neverwhere Your workrelated squee is entirely encourageable!
- @neverwhere You are fantastic!
- @arkadyrose I just got taught the alliteration!
- Winegar for wasps, and also for nettles. Interestingly, lukewarm milky coffee also works well.
- @johnprescott: It would be good if opposing unlawful killings and illegal wars was always in fashion! Peace: it's the new black.
- @arkadyrose Am very glad to hear it!
- I've been fighting the garden. I think I won on points.
- Have been developing disturbing tendency to start making cups of tea and then forget & wander off to do something else. Prescription: tea.
- @vashti Hurrah!
- Excellent, I can go and pick up this book today. http://bit.ly/cb3dym We'll see whether it's suitably subversive...
- @palmer1984 I liked the Moffat Dr Who, but Sherlock is just far too similar. And really irritating in many other ways.
- ...plots entirely based on bad puns. Do not want. #sherlock
- ...psychosomatic disability. Not "it's all in your mind" at all. Right. RAGE. #sherlock
- Sloppy use of Idiot Ball plots. Tsk.
- This is very much the wrong year for Moffat to have done this. Or, alternatively, without Cumberbatch; he's far too similar.
- @EwaSR @neverwhere @MarkCN I'm easy in comparison - a detective in a fantasy story, and I'm all for it.
- @neverwhere @MarkCN @EwaSR Jeryd for me too, I have to say!
- Watching the new Sherlock Holmes. Mixed feelings so far. Freeman good, Cumberbatch not so yet. Lestrade, er, very traditional portrayal.
- @msmiriamm That is very good indeed.
- @kerrypolka Oh, good grief.
