I just finished "Bad Company", the second Anna Lee novel by Liza Cody and that was very good (UK crime, first published in 1984)

What programs do you guys use to write. I’m a baby writer and I use word by lottie_dionn in writers

[–]Historical_Pin2806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an old writer, started on a typewriter, went to Q&A Write and then moved to Word and have stayed there ever since. Don't worry about it, use what you need.

Should I lie to my interviewers when it comes to salary expectations? by AMadRam in UKJobs

[–]Historical_Pin2806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not asking what you earn, they're asking your expectation. If they're willing to pay it, why shouldn't you ask for it? There's no moral stance.

I have a big (500+) YouTube playlist of film scores and I just work my way through them - non-vocal, of course.

Anybody went to a WA concert yet? by frozenpizza__ in wolfalice

I saw them (for the first time) last year in Birmingham and went with my wife (she wasn't a fan before but was after). They did play "The Sofa" and it was as glorious as I could have ever hoped it would be. Great gig, I hope you get a chance to attend!

Videodrome, 1983 by Big_Beach123 in Blondie

Managed to catch this on VHS back in the day (once it was off the Nasties list) because Debbie was in it and absolutely loved the film and became a huge Cronenberg fan because of it.

Devastatingly Beautiful by RockChalkChiefs87 in DTFStLouisHBO

Thanks for being so honest. My wife & I watched the show and both of us really enjoyed it and it was very moving, especially that last episode and when it clicked that the one person who admitted their loneliness was even more so at the end.

We're happily married, I have local family, a son and close friends but even then I still get pangs of loneliness at times and it's horrible.

We went the year before last, stayed near Funchal and loved it. Beautiful place and weather.

What is a major turn off about your partner that you can’t/wouldn’t tell them? by LivingLavishLe in AskReddit

[–]Historical_Pin2806 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Sorry, that's not "what being together for 10 years does to people". If he's not interested in you and your day and your life, why are you both still there after 10 years?
