The Golden Neep IC

[MADDIE]

How'd the event go? Hopefully the kids all enjoyed themselves.

[ANGUS]

So when you mentioned the possibility of going sailing were you serious about that?

I know the Neep and the playoffs are all terribly exciting, and I'm certainly excited to see who ends up taking both, but... well, I had a couple of complaints from our cleaners after the last Neep match. So please for Merlin's sake if you're going to get pissed sloshed indulge yourself at a match then please do so responsibly. Or at least bloody clean up after yourselves

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes and gifts! Even if my darling siblings decided to go all out for their gift to me. (And no Jamie, little brother o'mine, I'm not complaining.)

[Lorna]

How busy are you at the moment? I might be in need of some girl talk...

[added on much later, after chatting with Lorna]
[Angus]

I know Montrose has a match tomorrow and all but, however it goes, I was wondering if you'd maybe want to meet up or something?

( We're going to find out which whiskey you fancy, if you're up for some tasting. )

So, my sister has a birthday today.

I don't know who told her it was okay to get another year older. It certainly wasn't me.

Happy birthday, Ama!

Woke up to screaming bairns going Co-là-breith math. At least they are learning their Gaelic.

And the best gifts so far this year are...

[ooc: If you think your character is a friend and/or family, you probably are]

Nothing too fancy, but there will be some food and cake tonight if anyone wants to drop by and say hi. No gifts necessary, please. The bairns decorated the house and the cake.

[MEL (can be seen but looks like a bunch of scratches)]

I imagine we'll be seeing more than a few changes happening in the coming weeks and months here at DOMGAS. [...] I don't suppose you've heard anything at all about how

[PRIVATE]

It's not as if it's a bad thing if they did take over management of Lamb and Rannoch but... I've worked hard keeping them up to standard and all, and... ugh, I know it's all new and there's no telling what'll happen but I hate the not knowing.

Just have to hope this doesn't all turn into some big complicated mess.

[OWEN]

So how's my favourite older brother doing?

Went to one of the gigs my siblings' band, Tears of Lethe, had last weekend. (Yes, Maddock, I actually left the office to do something fun. Willingly.) Really proud of how far they've come along in the last couple of year.

Recovery is going good! I'm trying to get back to some kind of exercise routine. Champ is not a helpful workout partner unless it involves running.

It seems that yet again someone has forgotten that one of the ways you can make a complaint to Stadium Management does not actually include the use of Howlers; and any such complaints will not be opened, and instead will be appropriately disposed of. And burn a delightfully fiery death. Fortunately, my assistant hadn't yet made much of a headway through the complaints and we were blessed to not have to hear yet another insensible rant on completely inane and unreasonable stadium issues that are in fact not even a legitimate issue.

Well, the referendum results were certainly closer than I had expected, and fortunately it seems my vote wasn't necessary - not that I could've voted even if I had wished to what with living in London and not being registered. I dare say it's going to be an interesting few months, if not longer, as they work to set things up within the Ministry. Whether it'll work out for the betterment of Scotland remains to be seen.
