I went to Japan and I got the flu but Universal Studios was amazing. Southern Africa though...best trip ever. Went to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana. I wish I'd had an extra day in Cape Town, but I got to see the big 5 on safari, did the gorge swing at Victoria Falls (and went...

So...hi again. Apologies for disappearing off the face of the earth last IC year, I kind of just had a bit of a breakdown, got busy with work, and realised I was finding getting on more of a chore than anything I actually enjoyed. Also, I bought a house which I'm now renovating (well...

My Brilliant Friend it is! I realise the miniseries is actually free to watch in Australia via SBS On Demand so I will probably try and watch series 1 after I finish reading the book. But read first! (All I will say so far is that Lila is awesome.)

Just under 24 hours left on the poll!

Think I did this the wrong way around. Hi, sorry I've been AWOL, work has been hectic and I was overseas for a bit over a week. Unfortunately I got the flu while I was away and I'm still recovering. Almost there, but not quite 100% yet. Hoping to be well enough to get things done over the next...

Hello everyone! Bit of a new thing for me but let's finish off the year with a good book! I actually went through a few ideas for theming, initially I wanted to tie in to the travel thing and pick books that had been translated into English, then something lighter, then the complete opposite of...

Oh go on then, lol. Peregrine Piper - Gryffindor 3rd Ignatius Wolffort - Slytherin 5th Gaius Thornton - adult (shopkeeper) (Sorry formatting is finicky on phone and wanted to get in before I forgot)

Looking back on the thread and I'm amused where I see I'd about 99% committed to Cecilia for who would eventually be Laura. How ideas change. I also love how fitting Natsuko is as name for her! I also really enjoy learning the different Te Reo names and what they mean. Couple of recent ones...

If you're ever in Australia, save yourself the effort and don't come out to where I am, it's an utter hole. :lol: Although the Great Ocean Road is nice, and there are some pretty towns out in the regions. Daylesford is pretty popular, though I'd planned to go there and had to cancel due to...

Hi! So there's nothing I love more than awkward friendship tension and I got it in my head that perhaps Peregrine might feel low key a tiny little bit envious of Nia, when the boys she finds cute seem to like her instead... :r i mean she'd still think Nia's great and like "of course boys like...

-tosses Ignatius at your 5th year girls and runs- (more specifically him getting tormented by Sunny or unlikely friendship with Sofi)

Hello! Welcome back, hope you are in a better space for rp now! I would like to throw my girl Laura at your girl and I'm not sure if they'll become fast BFFs or be so alike they end up clashing. Laura is new to magic as well, but in her case she's a bit resentful of it because of how difficult...

I do remember that thread! I was literally thinking about it yesterday :lol: Definitely down for that, and yeah while she will have probably cooled down over the Teddy thing things will be awkward there. But definitely down for a nostalgic lakefront thread. Would you like me to start something?

I'm making no promises because of bad brain buuuut I feel like Audrey and Lucy should do something for their last year! I feel like Audrey was a bit (sort of) resentful about Teddy and Lucy both having happy relationships/withdrew a bit to work on her animagus training so they could probably use...

((pretend this isn't like 25 years late))
