Wow im bad at updating on here!

well, i went to the milton keynes con in october, with a few con buddies, and met michael shanks, chris judge, jewel staite, robert picardo, kevin sorbo (who we also saw out running one night!) and eric avari. Ended up managing to squeeze 6 in what was technically a 2 person room, tho there was a coach that we made into a bed!

Then went to the manchester gmex con in november with lisa, kim, amy and kerrie, where we met torri higginson, david nykl, jason mamoa and connor trinnier. This time there was only 3 of us sharing a room! 

And then christmas came! ended up spending it in the highlands of scotland at my brothers in a caravan, which was oh so cold! but it wa good!
Then went to edinburgh with [info]velvenand [info]partofthequeue2for new year, which was amazing. Ended up buying a flag! which is going to p3 with me!
Managed to meet up with lisa and kim when we were in edinburgh and had a ride on the caroselle! alway fun!

And with only 15 days to go till p3 and 14 days to go till my birthday the busy month isnt over!

hopefully pictures of the cons will follow when my computer has been fixed, but untill then i shall continue to steal my mums!!

hope everyone had a great xmas and new year!

well the summer if finally over now! *pouts*

moving into my uni house on saturday, so am packing up all my stuff and wondering why i have more things to take this yr than i did last yr!

looking back at my summer, it seemed to go really fast!

had a good time in latvia! the weather was mostly hot; around 45'c most days, which can get very annoying when your in the sun digging all day!

we managed to find quite alot of coins; mostly 17th/18th century with some being latvian and swedish!

we found some dice, flutes made of bone, decoratively carved bone, pottery and lots of animal bones.

some builders who were working near the church found 2 bodies, which enabled rescue archaeology to take place, which was interesting to see in action.

after 6weeks, it was nice to come home, and watch the sanctuary webisodes i had missed and had been tormented with pictures by friends!

my archaeological buddies

a picture of my archaeological collegues


unfortunately there was not much time to rest when i got home, as i went to scotland to see my brother, his wife and my neice!
and of course the sheep!


also got to check out one of scotlands many castles, which was really picturesque



and then as soon as i got back, it was time to go to london for the london film and comic con! with amy and liam
we even managed to find the tardis!
we even managed to find the tardis!

got to meet Andee Frizzell who plays the wraith queens on atlantis
andee was so nice and her talk was so funny!
she was so nice to meet and her talk was really funny!


ended up meeting 2 new friends (who i had met at 2 previous cons and never got there names!), cherie (

also managed to premote david's film 'a dogs breakfast, and hand out over 200 posters!


and even managing to get andee to help premote aswell
we ended up sticking some on her table aswell!
and ended up sticking some on her autograph table!!


and to end off the weekend, cherie couldnt get over amy's 'kavan look'
amy has apparently stolen kavan's eyes!
claiming amy had apparently stolen kavan's eyes!


and rodney bear ended up having a mcdonnalds


ADB has also been released in america now, so my copy is being shipped as we speak and will hopefully arrive soon as i really want to watch it again!
new posters and tshirts are being made (cherie's and angela's) for premoting adb at the milton keynes con, for the international release!

and the new season of stargate atlantis is set to hit our screens at the end of this month!

all in all its been a busy summer!

hey all!

just wanted to say happy easter to you all. Hope you've all got lovely weather wherever you are coz i have in Leyland!

Have been working the past few days and my feet are killing me, but my bank account will be looking nice again with more numbers! I got double time for working friday with it being good friday, and get double time on monday coz its a bank holiday, so ive managed to earn about £100 for just those two days! nice!

Totally missed the new doctor who episode on Saturday, so will have to catch up on it whenever its repeated! cant wait till John Barrowman guest stars in it again! But alas its a few episodes to wait untill he does!

Managed to write a bit more on my fic, which when its finished will be called 'Price of trust' and is an AU post trinity. Baring in mind tho that the plan for this fic was written in Prague last summer when me and [info]velven were high on coke! and its still not even 1/8th of the way written! its rather annoying since i know exactly what i want to write, but can't seem to put it down!!!

Have finally found a Latvian phrasebook which i must remember to order from amazon, for my archaeological trip to Latvia this summer!

And nearer the time, ill be asking everyone to page link all the new good fics while im away, since im there for 6 weeks, and would hate to trot through all of the new pages that will be on my friends pages!!!! There would be too many of them!!!


In other random news, i bought two new cushions for my bedroom in chester, although i think i may keep them at home untill i move into my new house for next year! But managed to get them at a bargain of £3.90, when they should have been £5 each!!!

In other news, my brother, his wife and my niece are off to Scotland tomorrow as they are moving up there to live, so the house will be rather quite without the two great danes, the cat and my niece running around! and the place may actually stay tidy for once!!! It'll be really strange!!!

Well im feeling rather lazy, so im gonna go wake myself up and work out on my bike for a while! My legs will kill me!! but its in a good cause!!! 

so peace to all! have a wonderful whats left of your easter weekend! Enjoy the sun! and speak to you all soon!  xxx
