Happy LJ Anniversary to me!

[blamebrampton]

Four years! SO much fun. Thank you all for putting up with all the madness, from Potter to politics, science to ukuleles.

I thought of writing something for the occasion, but finishing Fathers left me a bit brain dead and my remaining brain is being used for work and for a pinch-hit that I am doing for a fest, because I can almost never say no to a nice mod.

But I did make a little something!  My dear RL friend treacle_tartlet  and I have a similar sense of humour and have been confused for each other in fests once or twice. So here is a foolproof guide to working out whether a story was written by Treacle, or by me! (Apologies for the appalling handwriting (I was watching the news, and my pen ran out of ink), and you will probably need to click to enlarge.)



In other news, thanks so much for all the chocolate heads! MASSIVE pig-out!

Much love, hugs, kisses and fondant-guzzling slurps as appropriate to jesskakay , ineffably_roma ; dear anonymous; curia_regis ; brissygirl ; the_gubette ; ldydark1 ; stellamoon ; naadi ; lilliputian722 ; ladydeth12 ; subtlefire ; taradiane ; painless_j ; sassy_cissa ; groolover ;  alisanne ; alex_s9 ; melusinahp ; ariannagray ; skriftlig ; kitty_fic ; cassie_black12 ; filmatleven ; dysonrules ; tsosh ; phoenixacid ; rickey_a  and nursedarry 

And in answer to some of the notes and questions attached: tomatoe18 , you flatterer, I just have awesome friends!; pushdragon , funnily enough, my brain often feels as though it is made out of strawberry fondant!; fiercedragon13  – thank you! I will endeavour to write more!; unvarnishedtale  -- we will decapitate them all with our gnashy little teeth!; thisgirl_is  -- I try not to think of such things!; alaana_fair  -- a man bearing chocolate!; treacle_tartlet  you have left me not wanting to eat strawberry-centred anything for a while ...; winstonmom  -- it's mutual!; geneva2010  -- work first, the fic will still be there!; kayoko  -- I once shared my Easter eggs with my dog, she ended up at the vet and I ended up in hospital with gastro, I was 2 -- you would be an immensely better option!; lrndng  -- I would like to say it was the first time, but ...'; calanthe_fics  – oh, you knew that there wasn't going to be a sex scene, they're not Marauders!; teganscrush  and chantefable  -- it's chocolate OR ukulele, alas, they don't mix!

And finally, libby_drew , thank you for the picnic basket! You are responsible for so much of the last four years :-) (the rest is mostly norton_gale , Gillian Brampton, Cal, Rai, Ping, Mere and Push ...)

Chocolate Symphony number one for ukulele and fangirls!!! - see, I mixed them all right. ;)

That chart is genius. <3

Happy LJ-versary - all anniversaries make me think of this song, so... here you go. Congratulations. *\o/*

And damn, that chart makes it tempting to write something masquerading as treacle!fic or brammers!fic...

[phoenixacid.livejournal.com]

Aahahahaha, I took a random Brammers and Treacle fic to test the chart out - it works!

Happy anniversary!!!

Congratulations on your lj-versary! I'm very glad you chose to share with us all your musings, from whichever sphere they come!

Sorry I've not managed to get onto reading 'Fathers' yet - after tomorrow will have a little more time and I look forward to it :)

Four years, really? Where does the time go?

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

I'm going on 9 years. The time goes byh quickly, doesn't it?

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY DEAR UKELELE PLAYING BRAMMERS <3

I like to think that I have a fairly decent vocabulary, but I simply do not have the words to express how much I adore you.

♥ Congratulations on fours years of fabulousness! Our corner of fandom would be a darker place without you, darling!

♥ We should definitely try to get that fest off the ground, even if it is just you, me, and chantefable!

♥ THAT CHART IS THE BEST OF ALL THINGS.

♥ I am trying not to make a lie out of one claim, that my sequels are completed in a more timely manner than yours...*stares nervously at Pomegranate sequel file*

[absynthedrinker.livejournal.com]

LOL! Your chart is perfection itself! Thanks for the giggle!

Peace,
Bubba

Happy Anniversary, you don't look a year over 3! what is your secret?
I have to say I always look forward to your postings (whatever the subject may be. I've learned more about Aus politics than I ever expected)
Enjoy!

By all the minor and majaor Arcane, this is soo helpful! At last I shall know right off the bat who it is and perhaps manage to guess correctly on the next damned poll (I do polls to keep myslef properly a Humble!Tiger only; for no other reason, as I never win:<)
Cheers to your aniversary and your very Major Accomplishment; I am proud of you, and also simply grateful you breathe daily, you write (at all!) and you're in fine fettle. Bloody CHEERS!

It contains guest appearances by Boris Johnson - snigger. :-)

I did tell you I was on the same flight as him one time didn't I? He's smaller than I thought and even blonder.

Highly entertaining read by the way. :-)
