    We’re rejigging the layout of our house slightly. I say we, the professional builders we’ve employed are. Have taken that wall out so we can carve off the ends of two bedrooms to make a new room which will be a study/Guido’s office when he works from home. And hopefully that will now become a regular thing (though just once a week) to give him a bit of a break from his monster commute.

    I think if an eclipse were to hit both the UK and Australia, something would be going seriously wrong!

    It looks like you’ll have one pretty near to you in 2037 and another not far off the following year.

    Omg. I can’t believe it’s gone by so quickly. How are they doing?

    e of Pi was a very different person to me, heh. Although we did used to get mixed up – not least because he was known as e and I was E. I was very active in the judging sessions, ran more than a few of them, but only from 2001 onwards.

    I certainly remember you with the Cpt in front of your name. Nice to see you again, how’s things? Whatcha doing in London?

    Well, define everyone and define old ;0) I’m far too young to have been an Old Fart, and yet I ventured onto the SB 14 years ago.

    The Great Wizzard’s not on the board any more (hasn’t been for many years) but I’ve married him, so I keep him filled in on the gossip.

    It was intended as a pun rather than an actual attempt to generalise on the feelings of all men…

    I’m surprised all you guys are happily talking about this – I thought it was men’s true hate.

    If I didn’t know better, I’d think you were just spamming to pad your post count.

    No temperature should be allowed to start with a 4. Except, you know, 4 degrees.

    I’ll take the half which has the 1 on it then.

    Oh but he sweeears it was accidental.

    Oh well, we’re married now. His print stating he was first is now my print too. I mean, it’s an extreme length to go to just for the bragging rights and it’s taken me over a decade but at last my quest is complete!

    That picture made me realise that about a month ago I passed the point where I’ve been in Sev for half my life. I joined in January 99, a couple of months shy of my 15th birthday. Now I’m a couple of months shy of my 30th.

    Similarly, when the Sev Trek Movie was released and Guido <strike>totally accidentally</strike> was the first to order, I grumbled that I had been online at that same time (before school) but couldn’t order until later because I needed my dad’s credit card. Guido pointed out he was old enough to be in control of his own finances, I pointed out that I was young enough to be in control of my bowels.

    In a few months I will be the age he was at that time. Perhaps I should stock up on Tena Lady. (And start looking into retirement homes for him *looks innocent*)

    I have so many other better pics of Guido looking gaunt skinny freakish young if you want them 😀

    Yes ja oui jo sí! There are not enough ways to say yes to indicate how much I would like them.

    That must be from the Friday night, which would narrow down who can have taken the pic a lot. In fact, looking at who’s there… Was it taken by a randomer perhaps, that someone gave the camera to?

    That feels like a very long time ago. Wanna know something cool? 4 of the people in that pic were at my wedding. (Admittedly I’m counting the groom amongst them. He looks so gaunt skinny freakish young.)

    I can name everyone in the pic if that helps, but I don’t want to ruin the fun if people want to guess…

    I knew there’s a reason I don’t live in Australia. That’s just rude.

    (There was a brief chance I might move to Australia about 7 years ago. I’m glad it fell through for many reasons!)

    At least the nights are drawing in for you… You’re on the home stretch now ;0)

    That’s ok, it’s daily from Europoort. Just let me know when you’re coming and we can pick you up – we can practically see the ferry from our house. (If we walk down the end of the road, we can see it. And we often hear it blast its horn before it leaves.)

    (I wonder if I would be EofDummy or EofFlash… The latter is a bit too easy to miss-parse.)

    Apparently I’m a detective in Puerto Rico:

    I do like detectoring. One of my favourite things at work is when I get to play Hetty Wainthropp with a bit of footage. (I say favourite, I really shouldn’t have to do it so in a way it’s really annoying, but it’s also satisfying when I am successful.)

    *Tee-total and smug*

    We stuck to our usual New Year’s Eve tradition and did a 1000 piece jigsaw.

    Oh yeah. Don’t you all wish you’d been the Sevilian I fell in love with. The fun doesn’t stop at the Wizzard household!

    Yeah, but that’s not my full name. That would be like putting just Emma on my passport.

    I need to make my av properly at some point – I couldn’t just screenshot my old coloured name because apparently at some point in the “trying to get E able to log back into her account so she can delete spam” process we changed my username to admin so now all my old posts show under that name! EofS has ceased to be on that board. (I mean, I’d changed to EofW 19 months ago of course. But the old posts have lost my name.)

    Took me a while to decide which username to register with. Feels kind of weird to go back to EofS, but I couldn’t bring myself to register as EofW. Just felt wrong.

    (This is not dissimilar to my attitude to changing my name in meatspace – I’ve been patchy, to say the least.)
