Heya

Postby Sweekune » Sun Mar 20, 2011 11:53 am

Heya, I'm Sweekune. I have loved His Dark Materials since I was 10years old (nine years ago now, I feel old!!!). I'm currently rereading the books as they are by far my favourite fictional series. Also I love the science behind the books!

Hello! Jaya stole my line about book club, so I'll go on and be more sociable... Tell us more about yourself! Where are you from? What do you like to do?

Welcome! :)

Now then about those daffodils. They are not to be consumed. Understand that? We had a godawful incident back in the day with a newbie who had a penchant for daffs, lost nearly the whole lot. It's taken a long time to get back to our current numbers so consumption of the daffodils is not only strictly prohibited but is also punishable by death by treacle.

But other than that, welcome welcome. We're not scary or intimidating really.

Unless you eat the daffodils.
