Fic apologies and the Playlist Meme
I'm more than a bit annoyed with myself that the rest of Scottish Air, or at least the next chunk, hasn't been forthcoming. My only excuse is that for the last week or more, I've been in almost too much pain to even watch television - writing has been completely beyond me. I did try to write something for b7friday, but got about two paragraphs in before giving up. So, I apologize for the delay, especially to vilakins. Will get it out as soon as I can.
Playlist Meme Game
1. Put your playlist on shuffle.
2. Post the first lines to the first 25 songs to come up (along with these instructions).
3. Have people guess the songs and artists in comments to the post.
4. Post the answers to the ones people guessed correctly. A couple of days later, post the first two lines of the ones no one got and get people to guess again.
5. Repeat, adding the next line to the unguessed songs each time, until they're all guessed/you've posted the whole song/you've gotten bored/no-one's going to get the damn thing if you don't tell them.
