Sooooo. This flooding thing. We had some water in our garden for a few days, and on the 26th, there was about 10-15cm of water in the garden. Then during the night, the water level rose A LOT.
You can see the 26th picture on my previous dolly meet entry if you want to compare. But that water is about knee high. Not high enough to flood the house yet, but very worrying. But fast forward to today- now the water level has gone down a wee bit, maybe an inch at most, but apparently experts are saying that even though there is no rain predicted, this may no be the worst of it. So we may get flooded after all. And even if we don't get flooded by water coming through the doors, we may get flooded by water rising through the bottom of the house. Damn shoddy building standards! Should shoot the people who design and build unsuitable houses near areas that do flood... Hmmpf. My boy went yesterday to the Park and Ride, and got some sandbags to put by the doors, so we have sandbags lying around on the front and back doors. And we have also moved pretty much Everything upstairs yesterday just in case it does flood. Good times all around in this part of the country. I feel for the people who have it worse though, as there is a lot of places where people have had to leave their homes to be ravaged by water and sewage. I do really hope though that our situation won't come to that.
Hope everyone stays safe, and that no one will have to leave their homes due to the wrath of the rivers!

Badabing, badabum!
EDIT:
FUCK. The water has risen. A lot. Getting worried now.
So I went to the dolly meet in London on Sunday! :3 Such pretty dollies! But first I'm babbling about other stuff.
So if someone in the UK has missed it, it has been raining quite a lot lately. And as I live in a town that is littered with rivers, there is some flooding action going around. Especially in our garden. There's about 10-15cm of water there. Wanna see?
Pretty eh? Our garden is the one on the left, and the right is our neighbour's garden. If it keeps rising, we will need to move all our electronics from downstairs to upstairs. And notify the agency and tell 'em we need sandbags! xS It's still alright, no need to worry, but who knows what might happen that could make it rise suddenly...
I finally got pictures of my planty things! I decided to try and grow citrus' and now I don't know which ones are lemon, and which are orange. But who cares? They are for the greenery effect. And I also decided to try and grow wild strawberries indoors! They're looking sooo pretty, but there is no strawberries yet. Might never have, but again, I don't care! Strawberry looks so pretty anyway, so not getting strawberries doesn't make me sad. :D
I have a dozen random citrus plants. xS I need to donate away some of them, luckily one of my colleagues has promised to take a few. But I still will need to donate away a few more, as I can't just throw away my babies! I raised them from a tiny little seeds! Sniff.
So one of our housemates moved away on Saturday. And he left loads of stuff here. O.o I'm a bit weirded out as he left loads of CD's, and his CD player. And lots of other random bits and bobs. That are in plain view. Very strange. And I forgot to ask if he is coming back for them when I saw him on Sunday at his leaving due. Whatever, he has well over a month to come back from Cardiff to get them. :P
Meet time, I believe! So I went to the London Pygmalion Society meet this Sunday. It was so nice, and my colleague could see why we are so into these little pretties. :3
I think I need to have a photoshoot with Pan in herundersexywear that she was wearing to the meet. Cos I still haven't actually shown what it looks like. I made the top black and white, but then the panties are white as I don't have black lace that would be good for panties. :7 And I should take some photos of the green byzantine necklace, as I will be selling it.
Need to take some time and decide on a nice layout. This one is just until I decide what I want.

This is Akudem's lovely Bowie! And obviously he had to try out Pan's wig. Just because everyone should.
JUDGE BOWIE!
:3 This is Krowbar's beeeeautiful little girl! She is so amazing! And she has a bum to die for...
And this is Jatzu's gorgeous Mito! I WANT HIM. NOWZ.
And I think that's Jatzu guarding her pretty. She must've known I wanted to run away with him. My plan of dollybduction was foiled!
Krowbar's Mr. Abs
Star's little Mika
One of Krowbar's amazing collabs with... eh. Izzy?
And Krowbar strikes again with the hunk-action!
And with this picture I actually made a Firefly reference in DoA. Dunno if anyone will get it! xD
(Two by two, feet of blue.)
This girl is so beautiful! But I can't remember who she belongs to, or what her name is! xC
Jatzu's pretty Drayton boy with Pan and Aku's Bowie. Getting played with by mean owners. :P
He so ISN'T sleeping at the moment. xD
Bowie having a conversation with... Uh. Who's was she? And what was her name?
Pan is getting some action! Which is in reality happening several centimeters away from her chest. I bet she ain't happy about that...
Crab-lady! Aku accidentally called him a crab-lady at one point, while he had a lady dolly in his lap. xD
Bowie coming in for some love as well. And I'm sure Pan is up to something. (Or she's gone to lala-land.)
I think I need to have a photoshoot with Pan in her
Need to take some time and decide on a nice layout. This one is just until I decide what I want.
