I can see how it would be fair game to take pot-shots at me if I'd simply highlighted a random painting of a Russian girl with big bazoomas, but the page I linked to was actually a genuine Russian Jasper Fforde page, and the girl illustrated was obviously somebody or another's vision of how Thursday actually looks.

Anime counts as film too, doesn't it? All I'm saying is, that character gets my vote for the movie version.

Anime totally counts!!!

Actually, it is a pic of Thursday Next, I'm assured. Boob jokes are just a bonus :)

Actually, for a Russian girl, she seems remarkably flat chested.

Did you notice Jasper's name transliterated in Cryllic is the first line?

My guess is that the book is "The Eyre Affair"

The second line is a description: "[something] fantasy (ie. 'fantastika')"

The third line seems to be the Russian equivalent of Thursday's name ('Jano Jelo' is as close as I can fathom) followed by the three word title. A straight transliteration of Thursday's name may not have appealed to the Russian sense of humour, which mainly relies on peasants falling over in the snow a lot.

Love the smouldering, steamy look (of the cover girl, not of peasants falling over in the snow).

***a little later; edit***
Contrary to the assumption above, the first two words of the third line come out of an online translator as "Affair Jen", which establishes the title that I've guessed, but what are the next three words?

Thursday and Spike:

[heykidscomics.com]

I think Spike would be offended by telling him he looks like Fabio.

I think on reflection the retitling of this thread as "bvibafbaueburbaebvbv686" is slightly preferable to Kitten's suggestion that it be renamed the "being snarky at Ptols" thread!

I agree but would prefer 'bvibahbauebarburbdbd842'

What's wrong with my suggestion? It's been ages since the last proper snark. And even longer since breakfast, so a snark would be most welcome.

Purely because the Kitten wanted one, or am i misconstruing the words??

Unless it's a boojum, of course.

Did Shakespeare get mad and take his toys and go home?

Please everyone form a circle and join hands and pray, not for shakespeare, but for our online identities which we hope shall not be boojumed.

(Just in case, I will not access my bank account until the all clear sounds)

I can check it out for you.... <_< >_>

Not worth the effort. Stealing my personal info couldn't get you approved for a free phone card....

Is a snark amphibious?

No, thats a snorkle.

No, it's a snork. They live in Snorkland. Not to be confused with a Smurf.

but there where blue snorks, wasn't there?
