Tu quoque?! :- (

Too bad, I would have loved discussing Better Call Saul with you, but I guess you never got around to watching it, and you obviously don't watch the shows I watch.

But thanks for saying goodbye, so many LJ users just vanish withotu any warning.

aww, yeah, LJ is pretty much a ghost town nowadays :( But I'm glad we got to know each other here! I'll see you around the internet!

Ghost-town is the word for it. But I know I'll stay in touch with you Renata. Looking forward to hearing the podcast! What sort of things have you got coming up? I keep looking out for bad British books to recommend to you.

We just did INFERNO by Dan Brown, which I... actually enjoyed pretty well? But yes, keep in touch and definitely let me know of any terrible books that cross your path! ♥

Aww, I will miss your posts :( I've still been reading and enjoying following your LJ, but I guess that I just haven't had much to say as I'm not watching shows like Orphan Black and Shamless, nor the same films.. I find that a lot with my flist actually, I feel really out of the loop with the current popular tv shows and films

Yeah, I guess that I'm never sure if people are reading or not these days. And yes, it's difficult when there's not one big fandom that I'm involved in (over the years it's been Lost, BSG, BrBa, etc). I've just fallen behind on all my fandoms lately. Got a lot going on in my RL...

I will miss your posts, but I totally understand because I feel the same way. It sucks that fandom migrated so thoroughly to Tumblr, and has changed so much :P But I hope everything is going well for you and continues to do so, and that life takes you all sorts of wonderful places :)

I really can't stand Tumblr and don't understand its popularity. I've never made a single fandom friend on Tumblr. Why? Because it's designed to limit communication. When did fandom get reduced to reblogging GIFs??

Miss you too, mutant. We'll always have Felix Gaeta!

Farewell, falafel! I will miss you. I liked talking about Shameless with you! And I have so many memories of you about Felix, videos, and things about Britain!

I understand well why you go and I wish you the best in everything.

*hugs*

Awww, I'll miss being all British on LJ. I guess if I ever do post again it'll be for vidding. Just need a new fandom to inspire me.

*Gaius hugs*
