And in the future, they would ask, "Where were you when the Downs shut down?"
Let me tell you where I was.
In England with a beautiful group of fellow Barrow-Downers. Together, we wondered what was going on and commiserated when we thought the forum was gone for good.

Bottom row:

(This is New Year's Eve and the faces are just too funny.
Greenie is known for creepy new year's eyes anyway.)

So thank you, Barrow-Downs, for these brilliant friendships and an amazing new year. ♥
And I probably ought to mention that I'll be in Washington/the Seattle area the first two weeks of July with
The Ka,
TGEW,
Encai and
Thanleon, and hopefully also
Oddwen and
Gil-Galad. If anybody is in the area and would like to meet up, let me know!
edit: Oh yes
Oddwen and
Hookbill are coming to Finland tomorrow for a week or two! Downer times ahead!
