So, the

hc_bingo achievements for round 6 have been announced, and I seem to have won... well, nearly everything! Here are all my shiny banners!

( banners behind the cut )

*sneaks in looking guilty*. Okay, just to make this clear, this is *not* the review post for last night's episode, this is the review post for the last episode that aired just before Christmas. What with Christmas and everything I didn't have time to do it immediately after the episode aired, and then after Christmas I sort of forgot that I hadn't done it. When I somewhat belatedly remembered it last week, I decided to try to get it posted before episode 7, thinking that it might at least serve as a recap, but then I failed to get it done in time. Sorry! Anyway, here it is. The review post and picspam for ep 7 ought to appear at some point this week. Honest!

Spoilers for episode 2.6 behind the cut. Although really, it aired over three months ago, so if you haven't seen it by now I don't know what you've been doing!

( Episode 2.6 - The Grey Sisters review (aka the ‘OMG Pythagoras looked rather hot this episode picspam’) )

So, round 5 of

hc_bingo is over and they've posted the achievements awards results. Look!! Look at my monty haul of banners!!!! \o/ I've posted these to my profile, but was so pleased with them I wanted to do a squee post as well.

Why the hell haven't I been playing

hc_bingo for years???!! It's great! And clearly suits my type of fic and graphics down to the ground, lol. Also, I have to admit I did get a wee bit competitive with this bingo in a way that I haven't so much with other bingos in the past, so right from the start I was deliberately targeting some of the achievements. But getting King of the Mountain was an unexpected bonus.

( So what did I win in round 5? )

Review time again. Here are many thoughts, and slightly less pictures, of epsiode 2.5 - Day of the Dead.

And lots of spoilers, obviously.

( Episode 2.5 - Day of the Dead )

Running a little late again, but here's the review post for Atlantis episode 2.4 - The Marriage of True Minds.

Herein lies spoilers. And pictures. Lots of both.

Current Mood: busy

Episode review time again! I may need to consider using less screencaps, because they take so long, and without so many pictures this could have been ready to post yesterday. But there was so much pretty in this episode, I couldn't stop with the screencaps!

Anyway, review behind the cut. Spoilers for the series so far, obviously.

( episode 2.3 - Telemon )

Current Mood: busy

Sorry! I meant to do this much earlier, but it's been one of those weeks. At least I made it before ep 2.3 airs!

Obviously, spoilers for ep 2.2 within this review. And pictures. lots and lots of pictures.

( Episode review, picspam, and huge great big spoilers behind the cut. )

And here we go with series 2 of Atlantis! This is a sort of review, with my thoughts, random ramblings, and some pictures.

Needless to say, there will be great big spoilers for the espisode :-)

( 2.1 - A New Dawn )

Current Mood: thoughtful
Current Music: Atlantis, A New Dawn part 1

Well, I have to say I rather enjoyed that! Far more than I expected to, truth be told.

Been a bit of a hectic week, but now I finally have time to do a post-birthday post! Big thanks to everyone who sent messages, virtual gifts, or wished me happy birthday in Sunday chat on Denial. And lots of lovely fic and pics! And this year a few Atlantis fics sneaked in amongst the usual Primeval - you all know me well :-)

OMG SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!! How brilliant was that?!

I think it's safe to say I'd been looking forward to this concert for a while. I love practically every John Williams soundtrack that I hear, and I own several on CD, so the prospect of hearing my favourites performed live by a proper orchestra was too good to miss.

( Squeeing behind the cut, because there is a *lot* of squeeing! )

I've been meaning to do this for a couple of weeks, but RL has been a bit crazy lately. Thanks to everyone who wrote fic and sent birthday wishes (and halloween virtual gifts) for my birthday in October. It was a particularly excellent birthday because OMGSQUEEEEEE I met Andrew-Lee Potts!!! And, of course, got lots of lovely fic!

( all my birthday fic!! )

Current Music: Merlin series 3

Just seen the trailers for the new series of Doctor Who and Merlin.

( OMFG!!!!!!!!! Squeeeeee!!!!! Trailer spoilers behind the cut )

I hope no one was expecting any fic from me for the next few days, because I appear to have a shiny new ~~excuse for procrastination~~ hobby. I finally downloaded GIMP this morning (thanks very much to

reggietate for helping me with that), and it has eaten the entire rest of the day once I started playing with it.

( GIMP squee and experimental icons behind the cut )

Current Mood: excited

*collapses into tired heap* Phew! Well, that was a busy week. Here's why I've been largely absent from lj for the last several days, and why I haven't responded to any comments since about Tuesday. I'm not deliberately ignoring you all, honest!

( What I've been up to behind the cut )

Current Mood: tired

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! Sherlock rocks!

Yeah, that about covers it. I'm too busy squeeing to offer a detailed commentary or reaction post, above and beyond OMGTHATWASBLOODYAWESOME!!!!!!

Current Mood: bouncy

*pokes f-list* Where are Reggie and T_15 with the Merlin reaction posts? I keep refreshing my f-list and you aren't there!

Anyway, in the absence of flailing all over someone else's post, I'll flail here instead.

( Merlin 4.3 flailing behind the cut. It probably doesn't need to be said, but this post contains SPOILERS!!! )

It's that time of year again, I'm not doing the meme that various people have done, but just generally rambling.

( Fic writing ramblings behind the cut )

Current Mood: happy

As you probably noticed, it was my birthday recently, and I spent some of my birthday money having a splurge on Amazon and buying myself a couple of new Andrew-Lee Potts DVDs, namely the films Caffeine and Popcorn.
