It was Owen's School Summer Fete today. It was funny, because as soon as we walked up to the first stall, I had instant flash back to the school fetes I had at my primary school. The book stall with it's five-years-years-out-of-date annuals, the broken toy stall, the tacky & twee china stall, and the tombola with the prizes that have been donated as they were about to go out of date or were won from previous tombolas.
I think everyone can remember what happened a year ago today, but it was when I met![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
juleskicks for the first time, and went out for Chinese and had a whale of a time chatting about fannish stuff with someone who got it. (I think that was also the meal where the woman at the next table over, commented that she didn't know how we were able to eat so much. Er, thanks and fuck off.)
It's funny, for my first two and a half years on LJ, there wasn't a single person on my Flist who I'd met in person - the closes I came was to meeting someone wasmildred at an Eddie Izzard show - she was a couple of rows in front of me, and I saw her, but had an attack of "what if I'm mistaken and it's the wrong person". and so chickened out of introducing myself. And then last year I met most of the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
glovelove'ers, met up with morgan32 and juleskicks and then went to Serenity2 and met a whole load more cool people.
And that's a really long rambly way to say that I want to echojuleskicks comment about LJ. Because of livejournal, I have met and become friends with some amazing people. And all those who I will meet in the future, and those who I won't ('cos you live on the other side of the world), I'm fortunate to know you all.
