1) air festival: It's the Bournemouth Air Festival this weekend (18th-21st) and those of you who've been around a while will know how stupidly excited I get about this and how much I look forward to it! I'm off work from this Thursday until next Tuesday and I'm just really hoping the weather stays fine after the washout it was last year. And I'm hoping I don't get stung again too.
2) timetable of doom: Yes, it was only about 5 minutes ago that I finished working on the summer timetable, but the September timetable is due in about 3 weeks and I've not even started it yet. I've not very much time to do it either, so as of next week I'm going to have to start putting in much longer hours than usual just to get it done. I honestly have no enthusiasm for it at all this time round, but I'm hoping that's just because I'm kind of wiped out right now what with everything that's been going on, and that the few days off I'm about to have for the air show will re-inspire me. Or something.
3) paper legends: Posting of all the wonderful stories and amazing artwork over at

paperlegends is about halfway through so please go check it out if you haven't already, and remember to leave some feedback for all those people who've worked incredibly hard for the last 6 months on their entries. Thank you =)4) photos: Just a few random photos to share:
Boscombe beach (aka my beach) a week or so ago. I love the colour of the water in this one:
An old tree root out at Bolderwood where I took a group walking last week:
Joshua (nephew) sat on a lion down at Boscombe Pier last weekend. There's this thing called Pride in Bournemouth going on for a few weeks, which basically means there's these lions all over the place round here, all of them differently decorated and all of them kind of cool:
Hope you're all doing okay ♥

For some reason I thought the postings had already finished at Paper Legends (I guess I was so eager to get to the stories I didn't read the introductions too carefully), it's great to know there will be even more :) I've already read so many brilliant fics, even if I've limited myself to the AUs since Finnish airing is so much behind.
Lovely photos! The sea makes the first one look sort of exotic :) I don't know if that is a usual colour around there, but the sea around here doesn't usually look like that. It's beautiful :) And I very much like twisted roots and branches, I don't know how that rootstock seems to be so clean! I guess it's been moved there and the earth has fallen away or something...
Hmm, lions all over the place. I wonder if it's the same thing that has different colours of seals all over the city near us, all decorated by a different artist. There was a website about it too, but I forgot where. I think they were going to auction the seals away at some point.

There's postings at Paper Legends every day throughout August, so lots more good things to come yet! I'll obviously do a masterpost once they are all done, so hopefully that too will remind people to check them out =)
The sea varies in colour quite a lot here, but I particularly liked the colour that day =)
I don't know much more about the lions than the link I posted, but they are pretty and they do brighten up the place =)

Awesome :) Seems like I won't be running out of reading material for a while! Reading time, now... Well, I was already ignoring my master's paper project (the inspiration to do it has totally vanished), and it's been months since I last read any fics at all, so I declare myself entitled to them for a while at least :) Can't do overlong work days without some fun to balance...
