I should listen to that while I'm mowing the lawn, I used to dl old radio shows to my (fake)ipod and do that.  I have been catching up on my fill of British TV this week.  Sadly Call the Midwife and Mr Selfridge seasons are over.  But I do watch As Time Goes On and Miranda episodes over and over and lol always.  Lots of Father Brown, Dalziel and Pascoe and DCI Banks.  And Doc Martin.  The list goes on

I liked that one.  Very Agatha Christie as in And Then There Were None.

Barre,  Sorry about losing your progress on AK!  What a bummer!  I lost interest in AK some time ago--can only keep up with so many.  Also dropped  My Singing Monsters and  Antique Road,  at least for now.  Even neglecting MC,  but checking in occasionally.  I boughg  Save Our Park,  but haven't played it.  Bought Legends of Solitaire,  then realized I haven't finished the first one,  so working on that.  I;m re-playing the VV series;  also  Trade Mania.  Hard to focus these days.
 

Hi sandhan, we haven't spoken in a while, I hope everything's fine in your world.  I uninstalled MC a while back because of the ridiculous quests but since the update made it easier, I re-installed it and will play that one, together with ART.  That should be enough FTP games for me.  Time to get back to my regular games.   I think Solitaire is one of my fav. genres of games and I love playing them.  Glad you're enjoying your games. ((hugs))

barre -- I'm so very sorry you lost all your progress in AK.  I ran right over to check mine.  fortunately my game is okay.  You might try asking monika about it (Pond Friends).  Sometimes they are able to restore stuff.

Thanks lilyr.  I already contacted Monika via Boomzap forum.  I doubt she can restore my stuff.  It's okay, I've gotten over it and it doesn't bother me anymore.   Two FTP games is enough for me.
 

OMG a Builder CE.  I better cancel my membership if that's the way BFG is headed!  Royal Envoy a child's game.  I must be one stupid child, then.  I love/hate that it comes in CE cause I'm always tempted to look at the strategy guide.  Actually, more often than not, I do sneak a peek.
I bought the CE for $2.99 direct from Playrix a little while ago but haven't played it yet.  I'm signed up for their newsletter just because they offer their CEs at bargain basement prices shortly before they give them to BFG.  I'll give up the punches to get them that cheap  I just love RE.  I never tried any game like it but it had won a BFG award  so I thought I'd try it and I fell in love.  I upgraded the SE for my very first CE and it was well worth the price.  I'd still say it's the best CE I have.  But I'm a "save the best for last" sort a gal and so I never play the games that I want to, I'm always saving them for dessert.  Being in this thread is helping me to break that  habit, but only a little.
I'm doing a dessert game now, Hidden Expedition Hope Diamond.  I'm liking it but not loving it.  I didn't like the last game I played at all, so I'm enjoying myself enough.  I do like all the fact cards and the HO scenes are really different and fun.
