The Needlehole Mysteries

I am sure, when you get your hands on the extended edition, you'll find that she had her assistant clean her glasses at that moment. It just had to be cut out of the official version because of time.

woo-woo Amarie! Wowser! Liking the look.....

Having nit-picked I would like to add I think this is one of my favourites of yours. Its absolutely superb work.

i didn't know what bespectacled meant.. and either way, if she is "elf-like" she wouldn't really need glasses.. she's probably just a hipster (though maybe reading glasses, she does read a lot of notp) or as Amarië pointed out, her assistant may be cleaning them xP or she just forgot them, just like Orlando Bloom forgot his contacts ..

but I'm glad you guys liked it ^^

I did suspected it might be a language thing Norc (and your english is very good, there are plenty of native speakers wouldnt have known what bespectled meant either, its not a word in much common use really, although its a good word, I like it. )

It's a very good word, I'll use it frequently when time and opportunity allows it

That's an awesome drawing, Norc! I think it might be my favorite of your TNM illustrations so far. I love getting to see these; thanks!

Also, for what it's worth, I based Amarie's description on her avatar (hence the glasses), but I love your version!

glad you didn't base Agent Nora on my avatar :S

fixed it

Those drawings are brilliant!

I agree! But where is the next chapter so we can get some more inspiration? Nope, not behind here...

Because Eldo is being lovely I've gotten a sneak peek at the next chapter. And what is going to happen is - no sorry, I've been on my computer for too long, I'll go an illustrate

Cooooool! {{{Is it still cool to say 'cool', I wonder? }}}

Sorry for the long delay guys, but you can look forward to Norc's illustration alongside with the new chapter when both are unveiled.

NB Did you get a chance to catch up on the series, Orwell?

It is my current task - though I've just finished reading between Story One and Story Two. I read all the posts between --- they're a tale in themselves! Wow! What a plump thread this is! But I'm on to it! I iz!

Mind, a bit later though- as I'm popping out very shortly to record a LIVE video... Ooh ... my fans will be pleased! {{{That's Ally and Petty - Mrs Figg appears not interested in me anymore; at least, not enough to buy a proper f*&^%$#g computer with a decent set of speakers! }}} But when I get back I'll begin Story Two, which I read some of, but must read again methinks, to aid my remembery! {{{Actually, I'll read Haddon Hall too, but after Yours Eldo, as a punishment for Mrs Figg not loving me properly anymore!}}}

hey waddya mean I dont lurve you properly? I do I do I do. Ive just got a crap computer is all. I tried to watch your videos and I get buffered. I tried to watch Sherlock Baskervilles and I got buffered, it stops every couple of seconds to bloody well buffer. egad!

You do know you can pause it, go away and have a bottle of wine, come back and it will have buffered ahead for you, possibly even the whole thing and then you can watch without annoying buffering issues.

no you can't. this goes for youtube and several other video things. It buffers bits and bits, it doesn't "download" the whole movie at once, it buffers as fast as you computer internet thingi goes. And don't argue with me, i know this shit! every time in science class we struggle with this shit and it doesn't matter how long you wait, cuz it stops every two or three seconds because thats how fast the internet updating or something works. sometimes it's internet other times it's the computer's ability to proses data.

Yes it will stop and start as it buffers- but it will continue to buffer and if you leave it long enough it should, eventually, buffer the entire thing- i do this all time if my connection is going slow. And it works on dailymotion where the sherlock episodes are which is why i proposed it.
Also if your speed is resonable but not live stream speed you can buffer say half of it, and as you watch it it will buffer the other half, so by the time you get there it will have finished and you wont have a break at all.

Mrs Figg wouldn't go to that much trouble over me, Petty... {{{It's exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about when I say she don't love me properly anymore! }}}

Norc is right.
It buffers a bit then stops, then goes, then buffers, then the bloody thing goes blank and I have to start from scratch, when it gets to the end it just goes back to the beginning its not like its downloaded, but I dont understand these wotsits so I could be wrong.

you know I can hear violins in the distance, coming from Ozhobbitlandia, I will watch your videos, and I am sure they are lovely, so stop with the guilt Orwell, I feel bad enough for not being able to comment. ((((It must be the earthquakes messing up the Erusphere))))

Must be a memory or connections issue on your notepad Mrs Figg- works fine for me- Im buffering a long you tube video right now whilst I type this- by the tme I've got a cool buckie from the fridge and finished writing it will be ready to watch having finished buffering.

no it won't! it all comes down to how good you internet conection is and how fast you computer can prosess data.

see!!!

Not my fault if you and Mrs Figg's connection/pc cant do it! Its not supposed to stop, quit, reset- those are errors-its supposed to buffer. (And does fine for me).

well, it seems to me that you have some sort of alien super computer which runs on some sort of electrisity.

But I was right. You put a mental note there, I WAS RIGHT for once.
