366 Photos - 324 - Beachy (with added Pros)

[byslantedlight]

The forecast was for rain and rain and rain - except for maybe half a dozen hours today, and so I decided I'd better take myself to the beach or else I'd not get there for aaages. So I did. And it was less blowy than I might have liked, but it was lovely and grey and fresh and the rain mostly held off until I got back to the car. Half an hour later. But I walked on the beach, just like I wanted to.



And then I may have gone to Hobbycraft for supplies, and to the supermarket, and come home and had pizza and watched two eps of Pros - You'll be Alright and Kickback, since you ask... *g* I don't often watch series four, but last week I watched It's Only a Beautiful Picture (though I don't really count that as series four, cos the lads are together *g*) and Blood Sports (still a few nice moments - Bodie picking Doyle up in the restaurant, for one, and canon going-home-with-takeaway-to-watch-the-match-on-telly!) And then Hijack, which again I don't dislike, but... the lads don't seem as together. And then I had to change discs anyway, so why not the next one...? *g* You know, I'm liking the 366 project, and posting every day, but I wonder if I'd be posting more Pros etc. if I wasn't doing that... 324/366 so far - 42 more days to go! And what then..?!

Tomorrow I was going to go to a quilting-for-beginners session at a local-ish quilting supplies shop, but it's raining alot now, and it's not supposed to stop much, and I'm quite fancying the idea of staying home and messing around with my sewing machine and things on my own... We'll see!

How's your weekend coming along? *g*

I'm glad you got your trip to the seaside in. I expect the weather deterred the hordes, which must have been nice for the photo-taking.
I hope the weather improves so you can still attend the quilting session.

Yay! from Pros-y things! I've been re-watching LC in Jack the Ripper. Not Pros, admittedly, but Mr C is lovely as Sgt Godley. :-)
I've also been busy with Paint Shop Pro doing something Christmas-elf-y that is canon-era and not AU. *Iz well-content old dog with new trick*
Ooooh, and I've got the Poldark Season 2 DVDs now, so I'm feeling the need to revisit Poldark-era!AU Bodie and Doyle now, but I also want to read more Larton.
So much lovely stuff to do, so little time! *vbg*

Yeay for Pros-y things! I watched some more today, which was nice. And yeay for almost-Pros-y things, too! *g* I keep meaning to rewatch Hound of the Baskervilles too, cos its been years, and I haven't forgotten gvenanne's fab story-clips that need stories written for them... I just couldn't remember Sir Arthur well enough!

to revisit Poldark-era!AU Bodie and Doyle now
You've visited them before? Did I miss this?! And Larton! And I'm intrigued by your new trick, and hope I get to see it! *g*

I've never seen that MS version of Hound of the Baskervilles so I really should add it to the list of Things I Don't Have Time For Currently. I love Gvenanne's idea for a crossover!

Yes, I visited Poldark-era!AU Bodie and Doyle when the first series of the new Poldark aired on TV, and the pics I made are on AO3 here and here

HotB is a bit of a weird one, for me - it's lovely to see our MS in it, but it's odd to hear him sound very not-Doyle (and American!), and it's even odder that we don't hear him sound American, because they dubbed someone else's voice over him - ack!

Also - *swoons*! Is there anything I can say that will convince you to post your artwork to your own livejournal (or a comm!) as well as to A03, so that we have your lovely Pros-iness appearing in our flists to comment to? Cos I know there will be other people on my Pros flist who've not seen those pics, and everyone should be seeing your AU lads pics! Windswept Doyle... I'll just be off over here swooning a bit more... *g*

What a shame about HoTB. I suppose I could always watch it with the sound turned off and just admire the spectacle...

I'm glad you like the Poldark!AU pictures :-)
I tend to keep a very quiet LJ, but I will try and remember to post pics in one of the Pros cons, not just on AO3.

Oh, please do - post to The Safehouse, or Ci5hq if you don't want to post to your own lj, but it would be so nice to see your glorious pics on lj more often!

It is a shame about HotB - I miss our Doyle's fab voice!
