Twelve Days of Christmas and 212 reviews to go...

I'm really impressed with this. Especially with those two forming the band, though I had no idea [livejournal.com profile] ladybracknell was a pipe smoker... ;) Oh, and I pinched it from [livejournal.com profile] bratty_jedi, because it looked like fun.


On the twelfth day of Christmas, gilpin25 sent to me...
Twelve bratanimus drumming
Eleven ladybracknells piping
Ten films a-walking
Nine castles acting
Eight wales a-reading
Seven books a-writing
Six musicals a-moonlighting
Five de-e-e-etective stories
Four sherlock holmes
Three historic houses
Two lindsey davis
...and a sport in a roman history.
Get your own Twelve Days:



It was obviously asking for trouble mentioning the Round Robin letters as, apart from one, they've all been entertaining but swank-free. A lot of interest, though, was generated when one couple proudly told us how well their "body-boarding" was going this year. We spent two days thinking this was possibly slightly too much info about their sex life, before I remembered that the previous year they'd been obsessed by surfing... We're going for that version of events.

I've almost finished my Advent Fic, and those are words I doubted I'd ever type at times. So I've started reading everyone else's now and writing very belated reviews, for which I'm sorry. But Christmas is clamouring for my attention this weekend - so many presents and so much wrapping to do. Still these are a few of my favourite things... ;)

A sport in a Roman story...Does that mean that you get Russell Crowe rolling around on the floor?

Body boarding is a lot of fun. It's like surfing for people with no balance. ;) But sex is probably more interesting, and definitely a better source for gossip.

I've got the same feeling that the Advent fic will never earn the description of completed.

I suppose Russell Crowe rolling around on the floor is no bad thing... Especially in his Gladiator outfit. ;)

I'm thinking you Mods should include body boarding in your next lot of prompts. So many possibilities!

Thought that mentioning I'd nearly finished mine would kick me into actually ... finishing. But the mind games didn't work. Though we did have our mad quiz friends come round in the evening and it's probably as well I didn't. Hope your will power is better than mine. ;)
