MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

The presents have been opened and the turkey is in the oven.

[livejournal.com profile] flickums has gone back to bed, Dad-Ra is taking Max and Fergus for a walk and Mum-Ra is in the kitchen so here I am

I hope Santa brought you all lots of goodies :)



Not my presents. This is Mum-Ra and Fergus dressed up for Fergus's Christmas party. It was fancy dress. Mum-Ra was dressed as Fergus. LOL. She won. Don't you think Fergus looks like Merlin with his little neckscarf ;)


Stocking filled with goodies. Max is keeping watch ;)


Fergus waiting for his presents


Presents under the tree


Sims game for my DS. Whee!


Look what [livejournal.com profile] yavannauk got for me! A little notebook and a framed pic of Michael's 'porn??' face! Hee! Awesome!


And the notebook has a Merlin/Arthur fic in it!!


I'm looking forward to getting lots of hints and tips from this


*snerk* From [livejournal.com profile] flickums


Iron Man t-shirt! WHEE! Also from [livejournal.com profile] flickums


I've never actually ready anything by Stephen Fry apart from his autobiograhy. Should be fun!


Funny, Jacqui and I were just talking about getting all the Fred and Ginger films. Can't wait to watch them!


I love this film

This was my attempt to look gleeful but I was too tired for it to work properly. LOL

Chocolate polar bear


Candy corn


M&Ms


And this is just CRAMMED full of all sorts of different kinds of sweets

What, 'I hope they fall off'? That's what I'd have put.

I think I just died laughing at Mum-Ra dressed up as Fergus! XDDDD She deserved the win! XD

OMG, awesome presents! I especially love the Iron Man shirt! And I'm very intrigued by the little bits I managed to read of the Merlin/Arthur fic in the notebook! :D
HAHAHA, The Sword in the Stone! I have that movie too! XD

There's another Sharpe movie that I haven't seen yet? OMG! Must buy!

WHERE IS THE PRESENT I GOT YOU? O_O I hope it didn't get lost! *wails*

Oh noes! I didn't get anything from you! Unless it arrived in York after I left. I'll let you know when I get home

Oh no! :( I ordered your present from your Amazon wishlist on December 14th, can't believe it's taking them so long! :((( Do let me know if it arrived, please? Otherwise I'll have to send Amazon a complaint and ask them to ship the present again!

*is very much not amused*

What a lot of stuff you got! *g* And now I can ask you if you're willing to share your Merlin/Arthur fic. If so, I'll post it after the holidays.

Date: 2008-12-25 10:01 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] hils.livejournal.com
Oh, of course I'll share!

I really am touched at the amount of work you put into that gift. I really love it!

I promise to add more Merlin/Arthur to the notebook as I go along *g*

OK, but I wanted to ask first.

Yay! Well, you asked for fic on your wishlist and then I found those sweet mini notebooks in Smiths and decided to combine the two. I nearly had a problem when I discovered I was running low on Pritt stick, but it just lasted long enough. *g*

Woo hoo!!

Yay for everlasting Pritt stick!

Yes! forget katana space, I think I discovered Pritt space! (And now I'm not sure if you've ever been in Highlander fandom so that may make no sense at all!)

Heh! No, Highlander missed me sadly

From: [identity profile] yavannauk.livejournal.com
Oddly, Merlin has totally reignited my love for Highlander. I think it's because Colin Morgan is so like a young Peter Wingfield and Merlin as a character makes me think of Methos. Also, swordfighting for the win! Hm, I really need to dig out the DVDs and have a Methos-fest.

Is it worth watching? There's a couple of people on my flist into Highlander

I've already stuck Season 1 of SGA on my wishlist after your recommendation ;)

I love Highlander, though I'll be honest and say I don't think it really hit its stride until season three. Then again, I'm biased because I love Methos and he doesn't turn up until season three. There are iconic episodes earlier on, but seasons three, four and five plus the last three episodes of season six are the best. Duncan is the most fun when the secondary characters like Methos, Amanda and Fitz are around, though. I need to sit you down and show you some classic stuff like Chivalry, Deliverance, Till Death and the Horsemen episodes! *g*

That works out nicely then! LOL!

We'll have to pencil a free weekend in some time

Your Mom's costume is completely adorable.

Michael in a frame is going on my desk at work, or maybe on my desk at home. I love it

OK so Max and my Hubby share a birthday?

Looks like you had a fun day!

Hee! I shall be sure to let Max know ;)

I did have a lovely day. Hope you did too :)

Your mom looks adorable! Awesome costume! And the puppies are just grand.

Wow, so many goodies! Have fun enjoying them all! Fred and Ginger are amazing when they dance. And their movies are a lot of fun. Thanks for posting the pics, I love sharing your Christmas with you.

I was a huge Fred Astaire fangirl when I was little :)

Merry Christmas :)
