I noticed in your gallery that you have all of the Song of Ice and Fire books. Do you think we'll ever get The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring?

Thanks. I have read some preview chapters of winds of winter on GRRM website. Really cant wait.

I was lucky that i only got into them when GOT started on TV. Would have been a pain to wait so many years between the rest of the books.

I bought Season 1 on BD and after I watched it, that is when I started reading the books. I read them almost day and night until I finished them.

Well my bluray bookcase is almost full and was thinking what to get to expand the space....I then had a idea. I currently have a long sliding door cupboard which is not used for anything, just junk leftover from doing my house up.

So the plan now is to remove the doors and make this a massive open bluray storage with a fish tank in the middle

...and very very basic plan (excuse the mspaint

)

Going to make a start on this next week. As im rubbish at DIY it should be fun.

Well the fish tank plan didnt go ahead as decided to i needed more bluray space instead. Looking for a LED tv now to use as a movie poster screen for the center of my units shown below.

2 x IKEA billly book cases £35 and a small unit £12 from argos. Paint was called Red Berry or somthing from B&Q.

Well its been a while and this week i have been moving the room around to make future upgrades possible. Pics to follow this week.

*Repainted Room walls

*Have moved projector screen to other wall as can go from 92" to 110" if i desire in future. This also leaves more room for speakers.

* Have retired my Logitech Z5500 and ordered Q Acoustics 5.1 speaker package and yamaha rx-v375 av receiver.

Hardware Upgrade route plan:

Q-Acoustics 5.1 and AVR ---->New 3D projector (possibly Sony 55es or its follow up) ----> 110" screen.

Hoping my ears hear a difference between my logitech Z5500 5.1 and a proper AV set up.
