So true! I hope you can find time to destress as well. Life has been hectic :(
You were there two days after the attack?? Woah! I'm glad you weren't hurt. How did it go? It had to have been a surreal experience I would think :(

I'm fine. I went as part of a group going to parliament to ask for some thought over Article 50. (I won't get into that. It's complicated and I tend to rant. This is neither the time nor place for such things.) The march carried flowers. They left them at the spot and every police car was covered in yellow flowers. A minutes silence was held to honor those lost and those leading the group made the point that, after everything, it's our centre of government and we would not be kept away by fear. It was a very empowering experience. The act took place on Westminster Bridge. If you've ever seen a photo of the famous clock Ben you've seen the bridge. If you want the full story I can suggest 2 places for it. I don't think the forums would let me post everything here. The BBC are good for the facts and a paper known as The Guardian did a variety of articles on it. The Guardian has a political view point but it tends to have it's facts correct. Four people were lost to this. But the one at the heart of this was born here. He's never lived anywhere else.
Oh goodness! If you ever want to talk privately about it, I think you may still have my email (if not I will give it to you) and we can discuss it there. I am fascinated with this to be honest. It is history in the making, whether it is something I agree with or not.
As for it, I stand with you and your thoughts on it. I would have marched too if I was over there :) I can only imagine what it was like to be in that moment. Sorry to hear about the losses :(

I'm happy to talk about it publicly but I understand that Subeta isn't really the place for this sort of thing. It's the place to come to get away from that and I'm happy to abide by that. I'm happy to take this to email if you want further details and the march itself.
Thanks, I'll check those out. I wouldn't mind hearing about it by PM either if you like.
Thanks.
Sure. It would be easier to explain via PM than on the forums.
Thank you everyone for all the dances :) I know the event ends tonight so I will be sending out what dances I can. I hope you all were able to get what goodies you wanted from the special shops :) If you needed anything and ran low on trinkets, let me know since I have some duplicates. I'd rather them go to a good home :)

I managed to get most of the stuff I wanted until the brought out the achievements. It's annoying that they did that on the last day - they could of at least given us a few days to try and get the items!!
I agree :( :( There is always next year but I know it will bug me that I couldn't earn them this year lol :(

I found it interesting. The dancing was fun but the items were... weird. Certainly the food. Why so many drinks with reference to poison? I love the dresses though. But I still found it hard to gather enough trinkets. Ah well, I'm looking forward to Spring (and the end of hay fever season).
Your HA is gorgeous darling <3 What is the amazing hair you are rocking if I can ask?
Your HA is so beautiful <3 Loving it <3 I rather enjoyed the poison references since I'm such a nerd. It was a nice change from the sweet drinks from the past to give us something new to talk about. Are you looking for anything in particular? I have some extra trinkets and can send some items your way :) Since I can't cash out the tokens, I can just buy the items lol.

Its a cw Dragon egg of moon. Im up for parting with it for 500 csc lol. I hardly wear it. but thank you! I just threw this on for 2 seconds bc I wanted a change.
Thank you. :) I'm trying for a spring look without going too much in the way of flowers. I'm going to get REALLY flowery when we have the next celebration. I managed to get everything I wanted except for the books. But I need to decide what I want to do about those before I get them. It was nice to have something new in the food shop but I didn't expect every drink to sound like something that would adjust my pet's stats or it's appearance. What do you think of the new pet?
Aww :( I would if I could afford it. I'm all out of csc at the moment and it's not payday for a while :( Sorry! Thank you anyways!
Woooot! Isn't the floating flowers the next Subeta event? I don't blame you, I would go all flowery next too! Perfect for spring <3 We could use with spring around here.
If you need the books, let me know. I have an extra set of them in my vault :) I don't blame you. Sometimes the items name or description freaks me out when I feed it to my gourmand pet.
I actually like it. I wanted one but could never zap to get it. I was thinking of getting one just for kicks but I have too many pets as it is lol. How about you? Kinda makes me long to watch Peter Pan right now.

I'm having fun with spring thanks to my hay fever but I do enjoy Spring. I'll keep the flowers for when we go looking for the floating flowers. ^^ Thank you. ^^ I need to think how many copies I want. I tend to read event books to two of my pets or leave copies of really rare books in Imari Paradice's treasure chest. But in this case I might just go for a single copy of each. I'm not sure. I did manage to catch up on them a little this year though. Was it just me or were fewer Steamwork Trinkets being handed out? Maybe it was just the time between dances or it didn't last as long but it seemed harder to gather the necessary tokens. What did you think of the cyber punk style clothes? I may get one. I had an idea for a partner for my pet Black Widow. I picture her character as motherly and a hopeless romantic. I thought having a Lancelot type character to play opposite her would be rather fun. But she's an Endevor and I don't want what you might call a handsome pet as it seemed more fun and natural to go with something more unusual. I'm not sure right now.
I hope you feel better soon! :( Hay fever is no fun :(
There felt like there was less site participation this year, creating a headache in terms of trying to get enough trinkets. There was definitely fewer lounge trinkets being passed out though :( I had to run a small contest just to get enough this year :( The time in between is always a set back for me :( The cyberpunk style clothes were alright in my opinion. Just like any set here, there are some pieces I like more than others lol It was cool to have something new though.
That's a neat idea for your pets! I would enjoy seeing a more natural pet to play opposite to your Black Widow. I say go for it! :)
