I miss London!
I just wanted to say that I miss you all so much! I'm sitting at work (not making any evil pics today, BTW ) and I was thinking about you all.
I talk to some of you by phone pretty regularly and stay in e-mail contact too, but it's not the same. I wish just once that I could pick up the phone and say "Hey, let's go out for a coffee or maybe a steak ." I miss seeing your faces, so I look at your pictures and get sad (except for a certain picture of Nicole and her 'friend'--that just makes me laugh )
Anyway, I just wanted to say 'hi' and tell you all how much I miss and love you. I'm going to go drown my sorrows in come chocolate (and raw steak) now.

Awwww, I miss you, too! I have my London pictures all around my desk and I can look at those at least.
Oh, and you might not wanna look at those London pics of me. You know... you could get nightmares!
That pic of Nicole and her friend.... yeah.... I just had it printed out in poster size and will start sending it out to everyone after Easter. We should sell T-Shirts to raise money at the Gilliathon!
Anyway, I miss each and everyone of you and I think it's time for one huge grouphug!
Sandra - who is all depressed now.... but also terrified of what Nic will do to her once the Big Bad Mama finds out about those T-shirts

Re: I miss London!
Aww, I miss you guys too. It's no fun being here all alone, I don't have tons of friends near me and the ones I do have don't understand me like you all do... It's all relative of course... but you know what I mean. I think about you guys all the time here and there and it's just no fun... Like today, we looked at hairs under the microscope and one was a cow hair and it was great for me. But no one understood. Anywho, miss you guys tons!! Big group Gilly hug !!!!! Muah!!
Miss you girls!!
Re: I miss London!
I too have been missing you guys very much.....I often think of London and wish, like Belyn, I could just pick up the phone and say let's grab a quick dinner and go see a movie......This distance thing and time zone difference reall, really, really sucks.........

Re: I miss London!
I feel the same way... it's just not fair that we can't all live in the same place! It's great keeping in touch via phone/messageboard/email etc but it's not the same, is it?
I look through my pics all the time too, and am always thinking back on one moment or another, remembering all the laughs and closeness....
Ok thanks Belyn! Now I'm depressed too! LOL
I miss you guys! I miss London! I miss the play!! I miss the rain and the damp and the weird people in Leicester Square. I miss the queue (que? ) and meeting Gillian. I miss getting a bagel every morning with Katja at our favourite little place for breakfast. I miss not knowing which way to look when I'm crossing the street and even when I figure it out, still taking my life into my hands every time.
I miss standing on sidewalks for hours on end just continuing our three-day long conversation. I miss constantly posing for pictures, waiters that like to make jokes in languages none of us understand, and passersby that look at us like we're insane.
I miss the crowds of Picadilly, especially once I'd gotten so use to them that I could navigate my way through with no problem. I miss strolling aimlessly through Soho for hours with Katja, never bothering with a map or directions, just knowing we'd always find our way back. I even miss the London Trocadero!

Re: I miss London!
Okay, NOW I 'm really depressed!
SInce I'm alone over Easter and nobody could think I have really lost it now, I will sit in a window facing west and therefore London and think of the Blue Crew and nothing but the Blue Crew for at least 30 minutes.
...and then I'll go and eat beef!
Love you all sooooo much!!!!

Re: I miss London!
Ok, now you all having me thinking about all the things I miss. I miss...
Laughing at Sandra's jokes
CCTV
The long long talks
Just having to walk next door to talk to Karen
Staying up all night talking to Louise, then realizing we had to meet up with everyone else in a couple of hours.
Meat jokes (Eat More Beef)
The Lindy's
Coming up with a WTNIF Rocky Horror Picture Show with Nicole because we were so punchy (A Toast!!)
Ellie informing me she was from 'The States' (Any state in particular?)
The sun shining out of...
Fan fic discussions (Coral? Pink?)
Wyn's love of my hat (which he mentioned every time he saw me)
Roger's blueberries
Roger's blush
Gillian's death glare
Sandra's war cry
'Liberation'
Teaching Kath to talk ghetto
But most of all, I just miss you guys. I wish I could hug you all right now. I can't wait until I see you again. I love you so very much.

Re: I miss London!
well, duh! then come back!
I notice none of you missed me! fine! belyn... how come you didn't reply to my email? I was gonna send you another one, but i thought it'd be too stalkeresque... as opposed to writing a killer message on a message board....
guess what! I'm moving to london in september for uni!
tada!
ok, most of you probably don't remember me anyway, so. um, see ya!

Re: I miss London!
I certainly remember you Kath! From Nov and Feb! I especially remember hanging with you at the B&W party... that was so much fun!
Oh I forgot about CCTV, and standing in front of the theatre for seemingly HOURS in the rain before the final performance... all of us huddled under the canopy (or trying to anyway).
"Decorating" the Adam doll with Belyn - and the look on the poor womans face who had to get past us into her building. All of us signing the cards before the final play... our handwriting illegible but heartfelt.
Hanging out with Wyn at the B&W - he's G, just not G4GA! Taking pics with Wyn, showing him the Adam doll, his reaction to FFL, oh Wyn - just generally miss Wyn!!!
I can't believe you're moving to London Kath! Now there's even more reason to come back! I say we do a London/Paris Blue Crew thing!!! Right after I win the lottery, that is.
Miss you guys so much!!!

Re: I miss London!
I do miss you, Kath! I have your e-mail right here and haven't replied yet because I needed the time to type a really long one!
I talked about you with Emma the whole time--I promise! I actually realized I had forgotten something important to add to my list on my way home from work and was coming in here to fix it right now--I'm going to add it to my list right now!

Hey Belyn, I miss you too even though I saw you on Monday!!! Wish I was still in Vegas with you. Hey, as your not going home for easter, I reckon you should rob a bank or something and get your arse over to Dallas for the weekend!
Oh and Kath she did talk about you lots last weekend. In fact we talked about everyone, reminiscing on the time when you all came to London. Good times.
Re: I miss London!
My flowers are pride of place in my room. Smiling back at me reminding me of the great weekend I had. Unfortunately haven't got round to unpacking yet. I think my room is rivaling yours, I can't see the floor at the moment and have forgotton which pile of clothes is clean and which is dirty!!! I managed to not get it done tonight either - watched Maid in Manhatten instead.

Re: I miss London!
Friends,
right now I miss our goodbye scene where we all hugged... knowing that we'll see each other again!
I wish I had any of you around to make me laugh...
This was the greatest time I ever had and I found some wonderfull friends in you!
I haven't had that much fun again, so far!
Love you all!
And before I forget it:
I wish I where in london now... I could stalk at Gillian and ask her for a hug and thank her for what she has built up somehow... A wonderfull network of wonderfull people around the globe...
She's not really with it today is she? - Gillian about me! Your home cannot be found on a map but in the hearts of those who love you Gilly award 2003 for best Avatar - Thanks guys
Re: I miss London!
I've been doing coursework! I know that sounds soooo dull, but i have exams coming up in sixish weeks, and I've been busy trying to get it all ready! I've been lurking now and then... but couldnt think of anything mildly interesting to say!

Re: I miss London!
You certainly do miss a lot when your afk! Can't believe I never saw this thread before now! Well, I am a little slow on the uptake but hey....better late than never right?!?!? It's been almost two months since London and yet if I close my eyes it just seems like yesterday. Running through Waterloo station like a crazy person to catch a tube to meet the gals in Leicester Square and everything that followed after. It was and forever will be, one of the best weekends of my life. The most amazing woman I could have ever dreamed of meeting. Nic, Belyn, Karen, Kat, Sandra, Dani, Steffi, Ellie, Maria, Wendy (if I forgot your name, I'm sorry).........all of them truly fantastic people whom I am honoured to have crossed paths with. Life seldom lets moments like these come to pass and if you blink, you just might miss them. THANK GOD I DID'T BLINK
You guys are FABULOUS! Stay as wonderful & wacky as you are
P.S.......I should be journeying back to the Comedy in the very near future to see Minnie Driver & Matthew Perry. I can't remember what the damn play is called but it's got Matthew Perry in it so does it really matter?!?!? Anyway.......I shall try and behave and leave things as I found them
Ciao to you all, and I love and miss you all very much
The one and only crazy Lou

Glad you FINALLY made it to the thread.......We had no fear that you would show up here later rather than sooner.......why break a known pattern????????????
I love you and miss you. I cannot wait until July!!!!!!!!!!!
