Welcome to my perfumed garden

But I just got in from walking the dog in some perfectly filthy weather so I'm taking time-out to drink tea, eat hot buttered toast and do a meme which I blagged orf of fluterbev cause that's the kind of geezer I am innit. Wot you gonna do abaht it?*

Meme says, look deep into the soul of your userpics page and see the pretty pairings.

*I appear to have come over all Euston-Films. I do apologise. Perchance I should return to my gaff, pour a drink, light a fag and tell me bird to shut it (::muses:: You know, that would go well on an icon...)

I have laid my non-existent knackers on the virtual railway-line. If anyone wants to tell me what they really think of my fic, now's your chance.

 THE ANONYMOUS FEEDBACK MEME  

Blagged from fluterbev , that most shameless of doxies.
 ( Hear me talk about myself. )

Empire brought out their list of the 500 greatest movies of all time,
Bold if you've seen it
Italics if you've seen part of it/think you've seen it but not sure
Strike if you have no intention of ever seeing it EVER
Underline if you do intend to see it.

No surprises, but some thought-inducing questions there.

( This is mine... )

This apparently puts me closer to Gandhi and the Dalai Lama than say, Stalin or Thatcher - which is nice to know I guess.

has inspired me to try the politics meme.

( So I'm a... )

Not terribly surprising really, I suppose. I know you get more right-wing as you get older but I still know all the words to the Red Flag. Vive la chardonnay revolution, say I ::waves fist in air in a rather half-hearted, embarrassed and English fashion:: Has anyone seen my copy of The New Statesman? I'm sure I left it lying around here somewhere. Under this plate of olives and the Pie D'Anglois perhaps...

Mightier-than-All*

::hands on hips, leans back, lets rip with mighty Brian Blessed laugh:: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair! I am the biggest ant you'll ever see!** :laughs even harder. hurts throat. coughs a bit. makes polite excuses. Puts kettle on::

OK. So it's like this, I may have fixed the Internets.
Still testing. Not breathing too hard or keeping magnets near said Internets. Waiting for time, tide and Godot. Gathering dust and moss. Probably going eversoslightly mad.


*This counts for LJ name, real name and novelist (ha!) name. Cool! Fanfic-writer name amusingly = Panther-Passing-Across. ::enjoys the irony. Enjoys the irony a little too long. Grows bored. Goes off in search of new kicks. Discovers Coppery. Is well pleased::

**I need a Brian Blessed icon.
ETA Now has icon of the Blessed Brian, all bow down and praise Him.

This Meme shamelessly blagged and carried from the scene of the crime in a bag marked SWAG from the delightful, the estimable, the unsurpassed and consumately delightful fluterbev. May her star remain undimmed till the final breath of time.

Shamelessly lifted from the pocket of starwatcher307:

Post the first line from your 25 most recent fanfics and try to find a pattern.

Well, I don't have 25 fics. I think it's pretty well established by now that I write very few, very long stories, but adding in some ageing tales from another fandom, I can bump it up to 15 which is a reasonable writing sample. telesilla's adding last lines now, too, and I say, why not indeed?

And LJ still won't let me post urls under any circs that I can work out so I''ll just have to say  - all the ASJ stuff is here:

* Post 3 things you've done in your lifetime that you don't think anybody on your friends list has done.
* See if anybody else responds with "I've done that."
* Have your friends cut & paste this onto their page to see what unique things they've done in their life.

Ah, why not...?

I assumed everyone would have this one, but haven't clocked it yet so for me, it's;

'There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, and the sea's asleep, and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, somewhere else the tea's getting cold. Come on, Ace. We've got work to do.'
