Back from Britain

[hmpf]

First things first: Peter Wingfield is almost as sexy as Methos is, and what's more, he moves in a way that no normal, mortal human being should have a right to move. It's a bit scary, truth be told. And sexy. Did I mention sexy?

I'm such a fangirl. Sheesh.

Well. I'm back. Britain was great, and not just because it would totally kick Australia's ass in a bare-chested knife fight (*waves to beccatoria*). This time, strangely, I did not feel like a tourist anymore. Which was nice, in a weird way.

Totally panicked on the plane, though. Need to find alternative method of travel. Seriously.

Con report of sorts coming later. (Also: Worldcon report, what I remember of it. If I can manage. It really has been far too long!)

Regrets: Not managing to see jazzymegster, elliejane, aminspace, torn_eledhwen and a bunch of other people - I definitely need to stay longer, the next time.

But I did get to meet fleta, beccadg, elbatsnud, beebee852001, tiniago, ommadon and of course beccatoria, so that was nice. Love you all. :-)

Now I'm very busy fixing some computer bugs and then trying to get caught up on all kinds of fannish duties - catching up on lj, beta reading, translating It's Walky, reading my mailing lists and doing moderator's duty at sf-community.de... it'll be a busy couple of days, I reckon, before I can go back to doing something for uni.

Also, I want to meet some offline friends in the next few days; that has a very high priority. There's people here in my hometown I haven't seen in 14 months, and that's just not right in a proper friendship.

So, that's the Quick Hmpf Update for now. More later.

Yeah, the way that man moves his body ought to be a crime. Guh. I so wish I could've met you guys. Next year hopefully!! Am planning at least 3 weeks in Europe in the summer, if nothing else, but a con would rock. :)

Offline friends...

Hello! I'm glad you're back safe :D

You didn't actually *meet* Peter Wingfield, did you? DID YOU?! *dies*

Yay!

Glad to see you're home safely!

Ferry or coach might be a possible alternative travel method if you were willing to spend about a day doing it instead of two hours. It's 27 hours by coach from Cardiff to Prague (at least it was in 1996...), and Frankfurt isn't as far away as Prague!

Hope you're having fun; have a hug!

Becka.

Welcome back! Looking forward to your con report. Wish I could see PW in person some day to see that legendary movement!

Good to see you.

Yeah, I'm *really* sorry about that. Both the weather and my body seemed to have it in for me that weekend (and I *did* honestly want to see you again, plus it would've been nice to go to Leeds again).

So I can only be *really* apologetic and ask what I can do to make it up (short of a trip to Germany which I cannot afford to make).
