Slight Changes

Hi all,

Just a quick note to point out two slight time changes to the UK dates-  at Southampton and Guildford- to make sure that readers have enough time to get to the events.

For the Irish dates, we're checking when most schools are back in Kilkenny and Newbridge. Both signings were originally scheduled to happen in the middle of the day- but if the schools are back in session by then, we might move those start times to 3 PM. I'll keep you posted.

Oh, and for all those people asking for a Belfast signing, you now have your wish...

The changes have been made to the post below.

Anyone else? I don't know, I don't think so...

Rim. said...

Okay then :) random question time over IT'S ADVENTURE TIME!

Luciana said...

Adventure time, come on grab your friends we're going to very distant lands. With Jake the dog and Finn the human the fun will never end, it's adventure time.

Nixion Strange said...

Hey Luce!

I AM OBSESSED WITH ADVENTURE TIME AS WELL AS SP

Luciana said...

I just came to ask if anyone else is as obsessed with Death Note as me?
Or Studio Ghibli.

And if they are I am collecting Death Note and Studio Ghibli related things and it'd be much appreciated for someone to let me know where I can get any things related to either of them.

Rim. said...

Hey L!!
I dont like drawing but I surprised myself cus I managed to draw Marshall Lee and Jake without snapping my pencil :)

Nixion Strange said...

Never heard of Death Note

Rim. said...

My friends like Death note but I don't really like it so sorry no...

Eve the ROCK said...

YOU FORGOT ABOUT OCTA AND KALLISTA, NIX

Rim. said...

Hey Eve!

Nixion Strange said...

Hey Eve
Did I?

Luciana said...

I'm buying a Death Note.
I said I would.
Now I have found one.


And Death Note started off as a manga, then became an anime and now is a series of films, as well. I love it. I think Yagami Light is my favourite. Though, a lot of people refer to me as L...

Rim. said...

And yeah I've known about them for ages :) they're like the 1st generation of bloggers :)

Luciana said...

Oh, and hello everyone.

*keeps on forgetting to say hi to people*

Rim. said...

Gotta go bbs !!! *hugs*

Luciana said...

Bye, Rim. *hugs*

Nixion Strange said...

Bye Rim!

Luciana said...

What about...
Fushigi Yuugi?
D.N.Angel?
Translucent?
Kare Kano?
Darren Shan? -manga and books.

And any other manga?

*likes manga*

Luciana said...

Oh my Golden God- IDEA!

Nixion Strange said...

Book Darren Shan

Luciana said...

I've read the Darren Shan Saga, but not Demonata. I need the Darren Shan books- I've got The Thing Executioner, that's all though.

I need AF and I need Gone. There are probably some others I need to buy, as well.

Nixion Strange said...

I like the Demonata more then the saga
Gone is a must
And I didn't like the Thin Execitioner

Luciana said...

I've heard mixed reviews about Demonata.
I have heard that I can't not read Gone.
I enjoyed The Thin Executioner. The ending irritated me slightly, though.

I am so behind with reading. I have had far too many exams. *laughs* I'll read tons this summer.

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye Rim!!!!

You did! For shame

Nixion Strange said...

I did not, I just didn't mention them
I knew Rim knew about them, I remember the one time

Luciana said...

There are so many different covers for AF.
I seriously need to read these books.

Nixion Strange said...

Dinner
Bye!

Luciana said...

Bye, Nix!
I'm off too. I got distracted. *laughs* Bye-bye! :)

Star Inkbright said...

*looks at right arm irl* Huh. I have a line of freckles going down it. Must be from sitting in the sun yesterday. Good, I like freckles.

Star Inkbright said...

Forever alone.

Star Inkbright said...

*is still looking at right arm* And there's this red patch that looks suspiciously like sunburn . . . But it doesn't hurt. Okay, that's excellant then.

Nixion Strange said...

Hey

Star Inkbright said...

Hi Nix!

Nixion Strange said...

Nixion Strange said...

Star Inkbright said...

Fours L!

Star Inkbright said...

I think I need different catagories for BEST BOOKS EVER and FAVOURITE BPOKS RIGHT NOW.

Because their are some books which are just BRILL, but I've grown out of them, so I no longer enjoy them like I used to.

Star Inkbright said...

*BOOKS

Nixion Strange said...

You should try Erebos

Star Inkbright said...

Like, the Seahorses books. And the Stardust books. I ADORED them. They were . . . are . . . brilliant books, but I wouldn't like them NOW because they're below my age range.

They live on to be amazing in my memory, but if I take them off the shelf and start reading . . . They have 'eight year old' stamped all over them.

Star Inkbright said...

. . . Erebos????

Nixion Strange said...

It's a book, by Ursula Pozanski

Lynxia Lost said...

Hey guys!! Wbd.

Star Inkbright said...

Hi Lynxia!

Nixion Strange said...

Hi Lynxia!

Star Inkbright said...

*nods* Okay. Erebos. Ink shalt watch out for that. HowEVER, I'm not at school, so it might be six weeks till I get to a library . . .

Or less than six weeks, depending on if I finish my millions of library books before we go back to school.

Nixion Strange said...

I've got to go
Be back later maybe
Bye!

Lynxia Lost said...

Bye Nix!

Star Inkbright said...

Fours Nix!

Star Inkbright said...

Oh. Hi/fours, Chlo.

Star Inkbright said...

Fours Lynxia!

Has my new profile pic appeared? If so, THOSE ARE ALL MY LIBRARY BOOKS! *laughs*

Bear in mind I got them all out in three days, and that when I get them out, I have to lug them around in my schoolbag till I get home . . .

Star Inkbright said...

Ignore my messy bedroom . . .

Star Inkbright said...

So I had to carry a third of them arpynd with me each day, in theory.

Star Inkbright said...

*around

Eve the ROCK said...

We can only borrow four books at a time and we have to give them back two weeks later

Star Inkbright said...

We can only borrow three at a time, and we have about a month to return them - but over the summer, if you are a regular and a reliable borrow, you're allowed as many as you like. :)

Thank you SO MUCH for the new Banana Statue. *starts polishing it*

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm not a reliable borrower. I don't borrow at all. The teachers hate it :)

No problemo. *munches banana and gives one to Staravia*

Csgd.

Lavender Hope said...

Hey, you guys still there? I heard about the Colorado insident. Since we don't have American news here and I haven't gone on my computer in about a week, Derek's post was the first time I heard about it. That is scary. I told my friend and we watched a news video on her computer. They were interviewing the survivors. There was a woman who got shot in the leg and her friend got shot in the head(so he died :( ), and the news guy asked if she's ever going to forgive the shooter and she said, "Not today, not tomorrow, but someday. I'm an easygoing person and I don't like to live in the past. Yeah, he killed my friend and injured a lot of other people(she didn't say herself, but she was looking at her leg when she said that), but someday, I'll forgive him."

Okay, so that might not be completely right, but it mostly is. I'm glad she's going to forgive him, after what's happened. And I'm also glad she's the kind of person that lets go. It's never good to live in the past. I've always heard the saying forgive and forget. At first, I wondered what that meant, but I understand it means forgive the people that did wrong in the past and let it go. They don't have to forget the friends they've lost, but maybe the pain of the loss will lessen if they can forgive. 

Although... I'm not good with words... So I might have drifted from the point... The point is to forgive no matter how bad the person is or how unfair life may be...

Lavender Hope said...

Sorry, can't stay. Just wanted to say that. And that I'm sorry to the families that lost their friends and relatives.

I give them my own moment of silence to mourn their loss.

Bye anyone who's here.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Damn....I just really got time to go on cuz I going somewhere with no wifi :( but I read Derek's post which makes me wonder if it was all over the world news or heard from us

Star Inkbright said...

It was on the news all over the world, Zaf.

At least, it was a main item in our news.

Niamhy Jay said...

Derek have I told you about the Stray Kittens on our farm?
If not: There are 4.
One Black one with Bright Blue eyes called China.
And three Ginger cats. One is called Eliza, there there is Derek (named after you) and then the last one is called Skulduggery (Even though it is actually a girl :P Book 4 hehe)

Colleen McGuigan said...

NJ, your comment reminded me about something; I can't remember what blog It was that I commented on, saying there was a horse called Skulduggery up for sale, buuutt... He was sold for a better offer than mine. Now I'm slowly dying under a rock and drowning in my own tears :'(

Niamhy Jay said...

*hugs Valkyrie*
That sucks, I really can only imagine how crappy that is.

Colleen McGuigan said...

I'm very sad :( It would have been bad enough, just being a normal horse, but this one's called SKULDUGGERY for Christ's sake... He should have been miiiineee I would have fed him carrots!! :P And even buy a little black Shetland and call it Valkyrie!! :o

Colleen McGuigan said...

Hm. Derek? You should make the real Skulduggery come to Armagh and kick the asses of the people who bought Skulduggery, then he can somehow squeeze the horse into the Bentley and take it back to my house, then I'll be very happy :3

Niamhy Jay said...

Then it would have to have Brown hair. :P

Niamhy Jay said...

OMG YEAH!
Derek you should really do that! It would make for a Funny read. I'm wondering how SP'll get the horse INto the Bentely :P

Colleen McGuigan said...

I don't know, and Skulduggery wouldn't quite like it if it pooped all over his Bentley, but I'd pay him in Baguettes :P

Niamhy Jay said...

LoL
I would just laugh at his reaction to the ruined Bentely :P

Colleen McGuigan said...

Listening to Primadonna Girl by Marina and the Diamonds... Is it weird that this partcicular line reminds me of Skul? :
'I know I've got a big ego, I really don't know why it's such a big deal though...'
Oh God. I just pictured Skulduggery in a Blonde wig and pink dress... GAHH!!! IMAGES!! IMAGES!!! D':

Niamhy Jay said...

LoL!!


Oh NO! Now it's in my head!!

Drew O'Connor said...

Be nice to Skulduggery, he could have to save your ass one day lol

Niamhy Jay said...

Hehe

Aww Skulduggery knows its all in good Fun!
Don't you Skulduggery?
*Skulduggery stands with his arms crossed and doesn't seem amused*

She goes by too many pseudonyms... Her taken name is Marcia Sinclair. Her name on blogger is Alice Jones. It's confusing.

Sir said...

Pseudonyms are useful. What if you need to come up with a fake name on the spot? By the way, I just read it, seems like an AWESOME idea!

Thank you! Will you do it?

Yes, I know. But it conflicted with the flow of the conversation, and was therefore bugging me. It must not have been important, though, because I can't remember what it said.

Eve the ROCK said...

Frollick. My dad got a call from Dymocks, said Kingfom of the Wicked is coming out 1st of August. Next week on Wednesday. Which means I am removing myself from Blogland until I read the book. Because some of you are getting it early. And I am not risking spoilers.

FRICKIN HELL, I DIDN'T WANT TO DO THIS!

Nixion Strange said...

Eve, there will be no spoilers. If there was, everyone not from Aus/NZ would be leaving.
Calm down

Eve the ROCK said...

*seeethes* fine. I'll calm down. If calming down will help me to not leave.

But what about those people who don't know enough to keep their mouth shut? Am I going to risk that?

Nixion Strange said...

Eve, did anyone spoil End of the World?

Nixion Strange said...

Hey, who wants to watch the counter go down with me? I know most of you, uncluding me, aren't getting it for a little while (though some people will be getting it before others) but it's symbolic, and fun

http://www.skulduggerypleasant.co.uk/?locale=ANZ

Nixion Strange said...

Of course, it ends in 16 hours, so never mind

Eve the ROCK said...

....No.... Well, yes actually. Someone mentioned that Valkyrie had a dimple. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT! And there will be way bigger stuff in Kingdom of the Wicked....

Nixion Strange said...

Yeah, but I'm sure Derek will set up a special post for people to talk about it by themselves, like he did last year, with DB

Star Inkbright said...

Oh, btw, I'm going to my grandma's for three days. I'll still be coming here but in permanant msd and csgd mode, coz we can't connect to her wi-fi.

My sister's at guide camp and won't be back till Saturday, my mum's on a residential with work (she's a youth worker), and my dad's not going anywhere in particular but he works full time and although it's the holidays for US it's still a workday, workdays, for HIM.
