Ok, I was going to write loads here but I have so much to do I can't, plus much of it is censored....I was going to write loads about my trips to Causticstock and Elandria - but they both have limited me to just the trip details and i can't mention Carameldansen and Elandria...
But, suffice to say, both were awesome trips, I could have done without Bri's leaving present of a cough but hey....(ps, its going free if anyone would like it...)
Lots to do, fun tomorrow and then its back to hard work of sorting stuff out an tidying up - much to do before awesome things happen...and there will be a big journal about those..

And, in the meantime, I also try to get my car fixed as otherwise I g nowhere and can do no work...I miss my baby!!!
And, if the car doesn't suck all future money from my account then there are the sexy new Canon cameras to consider....the 50d which sounds amazing, and another one rumoured for release at end of september - i'm guessing as a replacement for the 5d...how come 3years is now out of date...lol!! So, if theres anyone rich out there and who would like to buy me a new camera body or donate towards one...!!
And (the third and last and...lol), go check out

as they are having a raffle to raise money - go read the journal, it explains it far better than i can, but go help if you can - every little helps, and advertise it around...Cheers!!
Taggage...
Some crazy lovely people (ok this is lifted straight from Lanny and Bri - who are the only two who have tagged me but meh...lol!) have tagged me over the past week or so for this "list your 10 best friends" thing. ALL my friends are beloved of my heart, and every single one of you are incredibly special to me in ways I can't even begin to describe

(yup i agree with this too...so many of my friends I can describe as special...

)
So it may well be that you are not on this list. If you are not please don't think I love you less. Its just not true and doesn't even begin to include all the...erm, everyone...!

And there is no particular order...at all...so if you're last then you might be equal first with everyone else....

YES. I also can't count... sue me.(and no, i can count...i merely can't be bothered...erm, i mean....i choose not to!!)
And, ok, theres a few more than i thought...ok, will try to edit them down a bit - i hate this...but i'll remove those that totally inspire me but i've only had brief (but loving) contact with...lol!! The rest, i'll write little bits about each tomorrow maybe...tonight i have too much to do

!! (note...really little bits by the look of it - come back and look tomorrow i hope...!!)(ps, the and at the start of this does not class as an extra and, as it was written before the other and...lol!)
Yeah...epic at finding strange locations...everyone go talk to him and persuade him to organise big dA get together and then you can all glomp him...when he's free from bug anyway...


Also epic...obviously, and far too nice for her own good...I have evil plans as she refuses to tell me how I can thank her for being nice to me etc while i was staying...!!

An awesome lady, who not only remains ever positive despite everything that happens, but who is an amazing portrait photographer - not at all bad at landscape either


What more can I say...a great muse, model and friend...and who does amazing PS work - can't wait to see the rest of the celtic series


The cause of so many late night conversations involving raspberries...i'm sure she'll make a great model when shes stuck to the floor in one place with superglue...

Crazy...erm, there needs to be more description??!! And on her way to the UK, nearish to me...that should be fun...i'll watch the ripples spreading out from Bristol!!

An amazing stock artist - up there in the top along with Lindowyn and Lanny as inspiration for me...and shes a lovely person too and very nice...

A wondrous if somewhat underappreciated artist and stocker - go see both, her work is awesome and needs to be loved...!

An inspiration...great to talk to if I can ever keep up enough with where she is - a real live wire!

In the list, a new friend...great artist who says nice things about me...there needs to be more of a reason...nah...lol!!

A real trailblazer - who works so hard to succeed - gives me a role model to emulate, and again really nice (obviously, it turns out i only like really nice people...lol!)

Awesome name...crazy lady...midnight chats thanks to time differences are great!!

A great artist who again reaches out to those just starting with friendly advice and encouragement


Someone who I totally hate thanks to making me lose hours of time reading her fanfics backwards - they are so great they can be read in any direction and still turn out amazing and logical!!

A shared love of amazing views but oh so secretive...just don't tag her...ooops...lol!

Another fanfic artiste who has me waiting patiently for the next chapters...

Smiles ahoy...someone from almost my area...go encourage her to do stock...her art and photography is superb


The action supremo...another dAer who never stays still for more than 0.5 microseconds...go check out his new networking site ds2.net - so much potential for actively visiting new areas and meeting up...go, now...then come back here once you've joined...!!

A great artist - proved by how busy she is creating stock and art

:iconlilyas
a really sweet lady, and the provider of my css!

awesome stock and friendly too...has wonderful stock ideas - and makes great hats - go see!
:iconmistressofpam:
my fav journal - always makes me smile no matter what she is going through - and great at creating art...and it's traditional too, not even digital, how do you mix those colours...lol!!

Sweet Indian artist - very friendly and her art just gets better and better

An early friend who I miss talking to as much as i once did, her art is gorgeous and her stock account grew exponentially...

Another crazy lady, her photoshopped portraits are genius!

Great illustrater who deserves so much more exposure, go chat, she knows tons


Someone who always remembers the small people and tries to make sure everyone gets a smile
Alien poses still promised...not sure I feel safe around there though


A great friend who always pops by when i most need support...even before i've realised i needed it!!

Three amazing wildlife photographers - amongst many...thats an idea for a feature...i should, it's my field anyway...lol!!

And last but not least as she keeps me warm and occupied on many a night with....msn conversations....ha! thats for the comment below! Nah, a great lady who always says lovely things and doesn't kill me when i get all risque...tho might for revealing what she said...but shes probably the only lady here i can admit that about...the others are just as risque but i wouldn't dream of admitting it...right Angel...

...

If you should be here and i've been really dim (as i am!) then shout and i'll add you (and i can think of at least 3 if only i could remember their id's - i've only known them from day 1 give or take a bit...)
...and no, if you don't wish to be tagged then you don't have to, no evil monster will come and devour your doormat if you don't...!!

Ok....first attempt at using CSS thanks to Lily - see the footer, theres a link there...ain't she a wonderful lady!!
