Hello there.
Sorry for the delay- I was hauled into hospital last week and have only just got out. I'd never been sick before, so it was a whole new and thoroughly dull/painful/annoying experience for me, one that I hope I never repeat. I'm still not recovered, so it'll be a few days before I resume normal service, but I know how much my Minions need their chatting space- so chat away...!

I'm just creed out by the blood, I threw the Oxford dictionary at it...
So, you all are coming to New York in 8 years for the reunion/musical, right?
use insect spary it also works on spiders
Hey people. Did anything big happen while I was gone?
But it was a huge black raft spider! I was just moving my xbox to hover underneath it and it was so big I though it was a controller but then it moved...
*sigh* at least the Hoover was on to mask the scream
Spiders eat insects! They are very handy to have around. They're like birds, really, with fewer feathers and more legs and eyes.
OH YEAH, THE!!!!!!:
BLOGGERS FRIENDS REUNION!!!!!!/SKULDUGGERY MUSICAL!!!
Hey Darkane!
Well we've decided to have a SP MUSICAL!
@Scarlet, The what?
Its all happening in 8 years at New York
What did Nyx delete?
and a reunion too octa
*sighs*
Octa, I'm sorry, when i was calling Rosie, he came on and commented!
Rosie is in Canberra, and is due back tomorrow!
srry, g2g!
yes and a reunion :)
Bye Nyx.
A reunion of who?
its when all of us bloggers go to New York to finally meet each other and have fun and stuff
Bye Nyx!
Thanks!
Hope she enjoyed Canberra :)
Why New York?
Bye Nyx!
Well before the musical Nicolette, Tristessa, Aquila, Kallista and I were also discussing a reunion and decided upon Ireland.
So it appears we have two different reunions being planned :)
Maybe we can rehearse for musical at Ireland reunion?
Ireland would be better, no offense to americans, because, you know, SP is set in Dublin and then all the Irish SP minions could be like, LOOK! THE WAXWORKS MUSEUM!
Yes! We actually have to! I'd be ... 21/22 by then which means everyone would be a minimum of 19 ...
New York! Because you can get a flight there from anywhere. Also, Broadway.
Plus Derek would be there :)
And you must also show us the Hapenny Bridge.
Which is disappointingly small on my map of Dublin.
Oh and I'm probably going to Ireland this summer :)
REJOICE!!!!
I can get to ireland easy peasy, :)
It would be disappointingly small to you people anyway. It's very small.
We can do both. :-P
SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT MUSICAL!!!!!!!
Bye Nyx
Darkanes right ... It's small
REALLY OCTA!
That would be awesome because my friends are trying to organize a nerdfighter gathering in Ireland sometime! MWAHAHA!
All of Ireland put together is kind of not that huge.
gtg
Bye Scarlet!
I should also go start dinner. Bye, all!
Bye Ann
It's not big compared to other countries but it still takes ages to get from one end to the other
4 hours from Dublin to Belfast ... It's gruellingly long
It's not four hours to Belfast from Dublin, it's only, like, 2 and a half.
We're did everyone go?
I was doing English.
Wait, I'm just wondering, shouldn't you guys be in school?
Yeah, we're still trying to decide where to go.
Probably Dublin, Tipparary and then the Dingle area.
Although I'm still holding out for the Giant's Causeway.
Holidays :)
The Giant's Causeway is pretty cool.
hi guys! i'm only on for a few mins, so don't get your hopes up peeps!
*jealous*
I really want to go to IRELAND now! But summer is atleast two/three months away!
I might be going to Rome during the summer! EXCITEMENT!
Hey Lilith.
Never been to Rome :(
Pompeii is AWESOME though!
Have a great time in Rome!!!
:D Thanks.
i'm definetly not traveling anywhere for at least the next three years! :D
Hi Lilith!
and hi darkane, since YOU said hi...
Aw, how come, Lilith?
*sighs* i comment too slow...
I said hi also!
My laptop is just an insy bit slow :(
No you don't Lilith, You comment fine. :P
hello to octa too! and darkane, it's just 'cause we haven't got enough money! the credit crunch and all of that financial junk has meant that it's hard for the simple builder like my dad to get enough money to keep up a family of five! :(
Stupid money.
I think travelling should be free.
They should make it a human right!!!
i was talking about sending that comment, AFTER octa sent his! that's what i meant about being slow! and sorry octa! forgive me for jumping to conclusions?...
:O I'm really sorry to hear that Lilith. :(
I AGREE OCTA! LET'S GO TO THE WORLD'S LEADERS ABOUT IT!... no wait, the travel will cost too much...
The Right To Free Travel In All Parts Of The Globe.
Has a nice ring to it :D

*hugs*
Forgiven! yay!
:) i'd love to sort out something like that, but i fear that i might be arrested...
YAY! I'M FOGIVEN! ONE DOWN, FIFTY THREE MORE TO GO!

Then we shall DIE as MARTYRS for our GREAT and NOBLE CAUSE!!!!!

Hey guys!
So what do think of the idea that we'll finally meet?
I think it's a great idea. But I kind of want to meet sooner. I know it's not possible because we can't travel on our own to meet people we've only been talking to over the internet. That sounds really fishy. But still. Great idea.

:D
BYE!
Hope you get well soon Golden God there is only so many times you could read your own books - or perhaps not ;)
Bye Nyx!
Bye Nyx. *lobs marshmallows at Nyx's back*
We could probably organize a gathering of minions in our own countries but that's a far as it could go at this moment.
MINE
MINE
YAY!
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Except my mum doesn't know that I talk to people on here so I'm gonna have to be super sneaky :P
I think ireland might be a good place for a reunion. Hmm, brb, editing blog check it out In a minute!
Yeah, my parents don't now that I talk to people online either. My dad's always asking what I'm doing. I just name random anime's that I like watching. :P
I'm back :P
Lol Darkane, when my mum asks I say I'm writing stories or I'm checking emails or something like that :)
I've commented on the update.
Cool, thanks.
So how've you been? I haven't talked to you properly for AGES!
I'm ok. I was sick for a couple of days and I missed my schools athletics competition. :( But I'm ok now. My mum just said I didn't have to go to school because Easter Holidays start tomorrow anyway. :D How're you?
I'm alright thanks, I'm on Easter holidays so I'm just chilaxxing at home. It can get a bit boring though :/
Sorry, brb, I have to help unpack the shopping.
That's ok :)
Back.
You're Irish aren't you?
Indeed I am.
Cool, what's it like in Ireland? I've never actually been there
It's sunny right now, but beware of the rain. I live in the suburbs of a city so it's pretty busy. Do you want to know about the weather? the scenery? the people?
Everything I guess :)
I was just checking out your blog, you are an AMAZING artist!
Brb
Thanks. :D
Well, in the winter Ireland get's really gloomy and REALLY wet. It sometimes snows, not often though. In the summer it is sometimes sunny and generally wet. Um, were I live I guess it's like the regular suburb type area. I think the city centre is probably a lot less busy than bigger countries.The mountains are pretty awesome, great for mountain biking and hiking. If you go to the country, it's VERY quite. In the villages there's only a couple of shops. In the suburbs there's a house every half a kilometer, ish.
That's about it....... I think. :P
Sorry, brb.
Wow, I'm gonna have to come and visit you one day!
Back
Does it really sound that great?
To me it does :)
Well, I'm glad that you like it now. You probably won't like it very much when you get here though.
You live in Australia right?
Yeah, I live in Australia but I'm British
WHat would you consider a hot day?
About 40 degrees Celsius but I hate hot days, I much prefer cold weather, my friends all think I'm mad :)
Seriously. 40!!!!!!!!! I would die! I consider 30 degrees WAY too warm. 25's the highest. It was about 17 degrees and I was dying. :P But then again, I was running that day so I was warm, but still.
Yeah, we practically bake. I hate the hot weather, it's too dry and it sucks the life out of you
Sorry, I got us talking about the weather. :P
Anything exciting happen recently?
Lol.
Na, nothing exciting usually happens to me. What about you?
I've just realized something, whenever I read someones comment, if I know what country they're from then my brain reads it in that accent. It's quite funny actually :P
hey peeps :)
posted more drawin's on my blog if ya wanna see :
http://picsofawesomeness.blogspot.com/
Lol, I don't really have an Irish accent. I probably have a slight one but don't notice because everyone talks the same. :P
Nothing really exiting happened, I have a couple of athletics competitions coming up but nothing big.
Hey Rachel.
Hi Rachel!
Where abouts are you from?
Commented Rachel.
:) i be fro' good ol' scotland :D but i dont think i have MUCH o an accent but i say the odd word no one know :)
Cool. I love Scottish accents and Scotland, tis pretty.
Lol, I have a slight British accent, sometimes my Aussie friends mimic me because I pronounce something different to them or I said something with a bit of an accent :P one really annoying girl says that I do it on purpose and that it's a fake accent, I almost slapped her :P
Ah! My head is getting confused cause it's trying to speak in a Scottish then Irish accent! It's not my fault, my brain just does it automatically :/
thanks Darkane :) saw ur picts too- thyre awesome :)
and yeah folk sometimes try to mimic me too, cause seein how im a lowlander my talks slighty different
Thanks Rachel. :D
Lol Jaffa. That must be a weird mix.
@Rachel, something I've always wondered about Scotland, do you Gaelic there?
I just realized you changed your profile pic. Why?
There was meant to be a 'learn' in between that you and Gaelic. :P Oops.
Hmm, I just realized that I don't really like the Austalian accent, it annoys me for some reason O.o
yeah i picked it in high school :) iv seen its quite similar to the irish one. prob vause they have the same roots. the irish be oor cousns to sme o us ;)
o.O You can choose if you do it or not? *grumbles* We HAVE to learn Irish. :P It's really annoying.
Hey people!
Hey Octa.
haha yeah. it was either that or german or french. it aint that bd to learn
We had to learn Japanese until year six, then in year seven we do Japanese and French then in year eight we get to choose which one we want to continue with
I learn Irish and German. :P I wish I could learn Japanese. Watching all that subbed manga made me want to learn it.
Hi Octa!
I wanna learn German :)
Octa and Rachel, you need to check out my blog. NOW!
I learn Spanish and Hebrew :)
OK Jaffa
I already saw and commented :)
Eh, Japanese isn't that great. I got 50% on my Japanese test but 99% on my French test and I've only been doing French for 1 term, I think I know which language I'll be choosing next year :)
Lol, you could give Japanese lessons and I could give you German ones..... that would be weird. It wouldn't work though. :P
:) goin jaffa. hey octa!
i used to learn a bit o icelandic and greek
I made a slight edit to the post though Octa :P
I learnt French for 3 years and then dropped it for Spanish.
I'm sad to say almost all 3 years of my French has left me.
I say Ireland!
I know how to speak a bit of French, a bit of German, a bit of Japanese, a bit of Cantanese and a whole lot of English!
I also know a bit of Spanish, Italian and Thai but not very much
Icelandic
*jealous*
You all get the interesting languages.
OOH!
I can speak a wee bit of Mandarin.
Wow, that's really impressive Jaffa.
I feel really bad now, I can just speak German, English and Irish. :P
And I suppose the tiniest amounts of German, Italian and Maltese.
But like two or three words small.
Well, if you count two or three small words than a tiny bit of French.......
