  1. I envy you having it all to look forward to!
  2. Don't estate agents have to notify prospective tenants or buyers if there's been a murder in a house. Or am I mixing up TV and real life again?
  3. It wasn't the house that they cut costs on, it was George's office. He said that when he wanted to do up the office he went with the people who had worked on the house, but then decided to go with somebody cheaper.
  4. To be fair, IIRC, real life Almanzo did get diphtheria and have a stroke and their house did burn down - although I don't think it happened in quite such close proximity as on the show.
  5. So the kid tells Magnum and Higgins that he was forced to do it and then changes his story as soon as gets to the police station and neither of them wonder why he changed it at that specific point? Surely they've both been in the business long enough to realize that he only changed his story when his saw his mother *and* the neighbour standing there.
  6. I took it that the '266' thing was Milchik deliberately sending the pictures to be printed at the copier Irv was using so it would put the wind up him regarding O&D. There's no way Milchik accidentally selected the wrong printer just as Irv happened to be there. (although I could be totally wrong about that, because I'm sure most people with multiple printer options have selected the wrong one at least once!)
  7. Thirding JustWatch! It has an app for smartphones as well. Really handy!
  8. Endell Street - The women who ran Britain's trailblazing military hospital by Wendy Moore It's about a group of suffragette doctors who set up and ran a military hospital in London during WW1 and it was staffed almost entirely by women. (a few male orderlies, but all the doctors and nurses were women). It's a fascinating look at the war through the eyes of women on the home front.
  9. I'm of the same opinion. Oscar said in an early episode that Gladys seemed nice, which was important, and that he thought they could be happy. Not just that he would be happy, but they would. And given the era they're living in, if Gladys isn't going to be allowed to marry for love, she could do worse than be paired up with a man who isn't going to be interested in her sexually.
  10. Maybe in the future they'll have developed a non-toxic tobacco to make cigars with.
  11. If Helly cut her hair off, she'd probably just find a note on her car telling her that she caught her hair in some equipment and it had to be cut to free her. There'd probably be a gift card for a local hairdresser as well so she could get it tidied up.
  12. Didn't John say that the sex workers in the brothel had to be treated as 'independent contractors' rather than employees? In that event, I presume they'd be responsible for their own health insurance.
  13. Peter Sutcliffe (the Yorkshire ripper) was convicted in 1981. You may be thinking of Steve Wright (the Ipswich ripper) convicted in 2008
  14. I wanted him to not make it because the trope of an injured person trying to pass on a message in case they don't make it and their rescuer refusing to listen because "You're not gonna die dammit!" Seriously, what would it have cost Warren to just STFU and listen to what his patient had to say? (I presume we found out whether he survived or not on Greys Anatomy, but I didn't care enough about him to bother watching)
  15. Didn't Ruth have to buy a new uniform in the market? I found it interesting that she didn't take the time to fold down her collar properly. Season 1 Ruth would never have let herself be seen like that!
  16. I finally got a title for my Mac/Flack slash fic. I went with 'Pushing boundaries' and it's posted to fanfiction.net as Cein and Archiveofourown and SquidgeWorld.org as Ceindreadh. Now I just need to get started on the next one!
  17. I think the food-less dinner was just a one off. So instead of inviting people over and feeding them, they just invited people over and talked without the distraction of food.
  18. Wyatt "This has been the best weekend of my life!" Wyatt's mother who has raised him singlehandedly for the past 17 years. "F**k you!"
  19. Even if a character is a fatality, we'd probably still see the body, so they should be getting a credit anyway.
  20. Or sometimes women have irregular periods anyway or have a little breakthrough bleeding. It does happen in real life. My sister was about 18 weeks gone with her third kid before she realized it.
  21. @ESS as a reader, I really appreciate it when writers put a recap at the beginning of a new chapter. Especially if it's been a long time between updates.
  22. There were a few occasions when I think the camera angles were deliberately used to make it difficult to initially tell which character we were looking at. I watched this over the Christmas break. I'd read the book before, which would have helped if I'd remembered more of it! Enjoyed it though.
  23. Heh, the only thing harder than getting a title can be deciding on a summary! It's even harder when I'm posting multi-chaptered stories because I want to give a summary of the last chapter, but I don't want to give away spoilers on a main page for anybody reading it later on. Anyway, so the summary for my CSI NY fic - "Mac and Don have a ‘friends with benefits’ thing going on. No commitments, no responsibilities, just the way they like it. When Don comes down with the flu, Mac breaks their agreed boundaries to look after him. But has he overstepped the mark and will their relationship be the same afterwards?"
  24. @ESS Do you do individual chapter titles? I'm managed that with a few of my stories, but usually I think if I can get an overall story title that's enough!
  25. Don't mistake her for the other Jackie Weaver https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-manchester-59745618
