Moving

[pallas_athena]

Contracts have been exchanged and the paperwork is in place. All being well, at month's end I'll be lady of this:









I've been driving my friends crazy by being unable to shut up about how cool it is. (Sorry, guys: I definitely owe you a drink and/or crash space whenever you like.) But this will be where I live and work for as long as I'm in London, I think, and I am ridiculously excited about it.

I particularly like the pink floor of the kitchen!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

The pink floor is actually kind of knackered (those photos are the real estate agent's, and kind of old), but I hope to replace it with something equally funky!

[laughingmagpie.livejournal.com]

WOW!

Congratulations!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Thank you! (and see you soon!!)

[mister-jack.livejournal.com]

Woah! That looks lovely!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *high five*

[mirabehn.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, it looks gorgeous! I don't blame you for being excited. :-)

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Well, it can't quite compete with the one in your icon... but a girl can dream, right?

[captrenault.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. Gorgeous place.

Floorboards like that demand you get a little remote control car of some kind. ZNNNNG! ZNNNNG!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Sterling idea, sir. VRRRRROOOOOMMMM!

[fracture242.livejournal.com]

It is absolutely stunning hun (except for the pink floor in the kitchen, but I'm sure it will be covered in fabric and other creative materials soon enough ;) Can't wait to see it in person!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

The pink floor is actually kind of faded and stained, so I'm going to replace it with something more awesome. Maybe red?

[badmagic.livejournal.com]

If the place looks only half as good as it does in the pictures, wow! And in London. Go you!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Looking forward to seeing you soon. (I'm back in DC 1 Sept-15 Sept, with a brief jaunt to Atlanta...)

[mirrorshard.livejournal.com]

Oh, fantastic! Very nice catch indeed.

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Many thanks, good sir!

[rajsmith.livejournal.com]

We are totally coming to sleep on that couch. Congrats!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

YOU MUST COME SLEEP ON THE COUCH. IT IS THE LAW.

[nineveh-uk.livejournal.com]

That's fabulous - what a find!

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Thank you, loveliest! I wish you success in your own househunting endeavours!

[fairie-ring.livejournal.com]

Smashing! It looks lovely and light too.

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Well, the windows mostly face northeast, so kinda-sorta. But come stay soon and see what you think!

[fairie-ring.livejournal.com]

That would be lovely. When you're settled do you fancy furthering plans for a return visit to Kensington Palace in costumes?

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

OH HELL YES.

[speedlime.livejournal.com]

BAD ASS!! I can't believe it's actually happening! And I TOTALLY can't wait for Thanksgiving in your new kitchen! Also I support the choice of red flooring :)

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

I really hope the renovations will be done in time to have an EPIC THANKSHOUSEWARMINGIVING. If not, it can be a valedictory do at my current place. Either way, it will be fab to have you here!

[drpaisley.livejournal.com]

Most excellent. When we went to InterThingy (the 2005 Glasgow WorldCon) we started out in London, in a flat on Buckingham Place, between the palace and Victoria Station. I felt so at home in that city. If I had stupid money, London would be my base of operations.

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

It has its crazy-making aspects like every other city, but it's definitely an OK place to live. I hope you get to come back here soon.

[breltard95.livejournal.com]

Suh-weeet! Or as Machaut would have said, Douce, dame jolie! If I had a plane and a pair of socks, I would totally be doing Tom Cruise impressions on that floor.

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

... Machaut WIN.

Shall i send you a plane and a pair of socks? A pair of socks? A most ingenious pair of socks?

[esdi-leanne.livejournal.com]

Wowza. That place looks BIG and very pretty. I'm already looking for an excuse to come down and see it properly...

BTW, I know that I asked what colours you would like in a blanket, but I have forgotten what you said and the company I buy from seem to have changed all of their dyes slightly. So, let's pretend that I'm asking this for the first time: what colours would you like?

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Hello my dear. How about dark blue and black?

I would love for you to come down any time. I still feel really bad about breaking our date for the Sieben gig. I'll be in the US from 1-15 September, but at any other times I would love it if you came to visit!

[gothichaven.livejournal.com]

ahh wow what a pad.. and Tea my dear don;t forget we are due a Tea-day in spet/oct time

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Tea is definitely on! It would be great to see you again!

[gothichaven.livejournal.com]

are you going to Lincoln Steampunk weekend? if not my number is 07708 932 350 text me and we will have a chant and a catch upa nd arrange a tea-date xx

[mothninja.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness that looks gorgeous! Well done you! Which area is it? See you soooooon x

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

I'd love to see you soon! It's down in Southwark. I've not yet seen your new pad-- are you loving it?

[miriya-b.livejournal.com]

WOWZA -- congratulations! Where is this delightful new abode?

[artnouveauho.livejournal.com]

Southwark, London. A very Chaucerian place.

I'll be in DC for about a week from 6-14 September, and it would be great to catch up with you and Mike!

[miriya-b.livejournal.com]

Chaucerian indeed! (And I'm having happy flashbacks of our trip to Canterbury now... ;) )
We'd love to see you -- let's be in touch about when, because we're actually headed to Louisville for Rosh Hashanah for a big chunk of that time (leave midday W Sep 8, come back Su evening Sep 12 -- also means we'll miss SPX that weekend, though I think Isaac will be sticking around an extra day, so we will see him). Depending on when you're coming & going, Labor Day Monday Sep 6, or evening of Tu 7 or M 13 look like good possibilities...

Shiny!
