4 things and 6 photos.

1) snowflake cookies: Thank you so much to all of you who sent me snowflake cookies; it was really thoughtful of you ♥ Additional thanks as well to [livejournal.com profile] aruna7 and [livejournal.com profile] nicole9514 for the extra LJ gifts ♥

2) smile: Was reading the report by [livejournal.com profile] dawniky about the Bradley/Colin signing she was at on Tuesday and this excerpt makes me smile every time I think about it:

"I had a bunch of kids behind me in the queue who were commenting on why Colin and Bradley were half an hour late getting out. I heard "what if Arthur has found out about Merlin's magic and has killed him?" from a little boy (he was 7) and also "maybe they came by dragon and it went the wrong way."

I'm also buying some purple wool tights this weekend and that also makes me stupidly happy.

3) deletion: Have deleted shedloads of comms from my flist lately and am likely doing yet another flist cut soon; I'll have nothing left to read if I keep on like this.

4) photos: Some random photos for you. I've posted them thumbnail size so if you're not interested you can skip them; if you do want to see more detail just click each to enlarge:

A photo from my visit to Tintagel 3 weeks ago.




2 random Christmassy photos from my flat. The reindeer with the jangly legs is my favourite decoration.



2 photos from the beach last Saturday when I was there with my nephew Josh. Last photo of the three was taken yesterday afternoon. The dots you can see in the sea are surfers.




Hope you're all doing okay; sorry I'm not around much ♥

*hugs muchly*

TINTAGEL! *squee* OMG, this looks amazing! :D I'd love to go there one day and take a million pictures. \0/

The remark about Bradley and Colin coming by dragon made me giggle so much, I can almost see how Colin fiddles with a map and tells the dragon to fly the 'scenic route'. :D

BTW, I only found your PM this morning (stupid notification system, still a few hiccups...), do you still need my email address?

Before Christmas the last batch of pics from A Night less Ordinary will be released, I'll make a post to [livejournal.com profile] merlin_sceneit with all pics once all pics are out. :)

Tintagel looks wicked cool! European history is so cool compared to US... but then again, what's considered "modern" in Europe is "old" in America... we're a young country! (And yes, I know there's native American history, but it wasn't recorded as well as historical events were in Europe [plus the buildings in Europe were stone and lasted longer]). I want to see it some day :)

**hugs back**

Drive by hugs because I'm running late for work, as usual. More commenting tonight!

*hugs*

Yay ~*Tintagel*~! I'm so glad you got to go and visit (even if Bradley remained elusive), and your postcard still makes me smile.

Your decorations are adorable! And is that a batch of CM I see sitting in the corner? :)

*hugs you lots*

Your photos make me miss the sea. I really hope I get a chance to go and stay there for a while, when I get home this christmas.

Glad to hear something made you happy and I totally believe in the dragon's bad sense of direction ;)

Beautiful pictures! And your reindeer is so cute!

The story about Arthur, Merlin and the flying dragon made me laugh.:) Only kids could find out such little stories, their imagination is not so earth-bounded.

Buying some new stuff can always make a woman happy.:)

Those beach photos are so gorgeous! (Actually, seeing anything that's not snow-covered is welcome at the moment!)

I just purged a ton of communities myself. I now have a few vidding and graphics comms and the rest are all trek related. I am such a nerd! (and I love it)

I defriended a few people as well. It doesn't seem like they minded. =|

The kid's comment about Arthur finding out and killing Merlin is too cute :)

Beautiful pic of Tintagel. And I love the other ones, too. Especially the Christmas ones. Adorable decorations. And I see someone is a big Criminal Minds fan. lol (I think I already knew that :) Beaches are so peaceful and calming. Beautiful.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend, sweetie. *hugs*

1. Your icon is CUTE!
2. Gorrrrg pictures!! I want that reindeer for myself! And I saved the last beach picture to look at :)

Ooh pretty photos!

Hee, I went insane flist cut a while back and I keep berating myself for it now that I have more time. I always feel bad when I cut people, but I doubt I really hurt feelings or anything... I hope. lol I totally need to do a comm cut again though.

Surfers. In December.
I'm sorry the thought alone has left me so cold I can barely type... :O
