From a review of a monitor in this week's "Amateur Photographer":

"The 22in screen will fit on most computer desks, although bear in mind that it is bigger than the average 19in screen."

No, really? ;-)

"We had a modified English breakfast back at Kymalton House: muesli, fruit, yogurt, toast, tea, scrambled eggs for Jeff, and poached eggs and baked beans for me."

Um, how is that an English breakfast?

[livejournal.com profile] camillofan has asked me:
"Is the distinguishing feature of fantasy (as opposed to other sorts of speculative fiction) Magic?"

And she has also said:
"What you need is a bracing debate on what exactly constitutes fantasy literature."

So - over to you, oh wise FList. What made a book "fantasy"?
