Just helping with the handbasket...

[graculus]

Dear rivier and blktauna, I saw this and thought of you... ;)

E.T.A. am currently amused by reading an obviously unBrit-picked HP story which has Remus working at McD's in Glasgow with people who actually speak in complete sentences, and where he has found a pet shop where they not only sell pedigree dogs in the window but also where the owner plans to offer him £9 an hour starting salary.

Holy crap, they're getting married!

Bleah. Is hard to write Brit. I just caught myself saying "suspenders" instead of "braces" in a hobbit fic.

*threatens to have you proofread all 167+ words of Making of Samwise before I zine it someday*

[cara-chapel.livejournal.com]

167K +, I meant.

I don't think people at McD's in the US speak in complete sentences, either. Unless, of course, you consider "Welcome to *bzzzzt crackle* may I take your *static*?" or "Do you want *bzzzzzt* that?" or "That'll be *crackle, static, crackle* thank you drive through," complete sentences. ;)

And they make such a cute couple! ;)

[graculus.livejournal.com]

167 would be better! :P

I categorically refuse to be psyched out after all the Stargate fics I read with Daniel going into the loo and turning on the tap and blimey does he fancy Jack! I just do the best I can on my own and then beg for help. ;)

Depends on how pervy a hobbit he is, I guess! ;)

[cara-chapel.livejournal.com]

Oh, come on. You're just dying to read all 167,000 (probably more like 175,000 or 200,000 by the time I'm done for good) words of those poor little tortured hobbits who are sixty-three parts in and still haven't got to shag yet.....

[cara-chapel.livejournal.com]

Heh. Well, these things were supposed to hold his pants up, not help him hang from the ceiling.

[cara-chapel.livejournal.com]

And yes, I should say trousers because pants = underwear.

LOL, for 9 Pounds/hour even I would consider working there, since that's way over 10Eur.

You've read The Wizards of Aus (http://www.ozemail.com.au/~brussell/wiz.htm), of course? ;)

I think someone forgot to calculate the exchange rate, particularly since minimum wage over here is £4.85 an hour...

[graculus.livejournal.com]

There's delayed gratification and delayed gratification...

[cara-chapel.livejournal.com]

I've been working on this fic for 3 years come Feb. 25 of next year. These hobbits' balls are so blue they squeak when the hobbits walk!

Ah, the love that wears clothes you can be *proud* of!

Admit it. You're jealous of that mop of soft, clean, silky hair. And the absence of skiddies.

[xochiquetzl]

HOWL!!!!! :D

[graculus.livejournal.com]

And one day he will be legal! :P

[blktauna.livejournal.com]

Don't I just...

*slavers*

Hee! Too funny. I don't read much HP -- only laugh at the bad ones friends point out to me -- but I believe the common possession of guns and people getting bankrupted by the NHS are among my faves.
