other stuff!

Okay this is where I will be putting stuff that I'm not sure what to do with...so it may get full very quickly!<g>

Links above to "Other stuff"!

As you can see above there are some spiffy links to some new pages or pages that you may not have been aware of hiding on this site.. <g> Here's an explanation of what's on offer!

  • Farscape Bits n' Bobs- Well this is all the Farscape goodies like make up tests and wotnot that don't quite fit into the Ben Browderness of this site but are nevertheless cool!
  • Convention Photos - Pretty much what it says on the tin! This is a page which leads to oodles and oodles of Convention photos featuring Ben,Claudia,Gigi,Anth and the rest of the cast and crew and some other peeps at the same cons too!
  • DB Photos n' stuff - DB stands for the Delphi board (which is the other nickname for the UK Unofficial Farscape board.. which is now no longer on Delphi, just to confuse things -but hey do we care? lol) and on this page you will find things like a virtual copy of our Convention books we sent to Ben,Claudia and Gigi and also lots of photos and madness from our frequent meets. If you have a strong constitution and spirit then please do feel free to browse.. (you have been warned! <g>)

 

Two year Anniversary!

Good grief 30th June slipped by without me noticing!! Well it's now been two years and by thunder look at that we are still here.. You, still reading this rubbish and me, still writing it! <g> I've also just noticed the site has passed the 70,000 hits mark..('scuse me while I *thud*..)

So once again it's time for me to stagger up to the Oscar podium, adjust the microphone and unravel the 8 mile long thank you list as the audience reaches for a stiff drink...

Just kidding!! lol

I just want to say a quick thank you to all the usual suspects below and also all the newbies this year who've also helped me out so much.. Also this year has been very traumatic from a Ben/Farscape point of view (much,much more so for Ben himself obviously...) with the cancellation, so at this point I want to give a HUUUGE collective (((HUG))) to everyone and let's hope the next 12 months bring better things and also maybe, if the powers allow.. more Farscape and Ben! :)

One year Anniversary and Thank You's

Well it occurred to me this weekend that this site is almost a year old and looking at todays web counter I've had over 24000 hits..now that's really, really hard for me to get my head around but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to those who have made this one year old's life a very easy,fun and interesting one! Firstly to the really obvious people..you, the loonies who like me, adore Ben and keep coming in here to look..Thank you for all the messages and emails of thanks,encouragement and good wishes (I apologize now if I've missed your email in the past and not replied-I know in the early days I got a bit swamped and it was impossible for me to keep up!).Each email/message just makes my day and I must admit I love answering the questions you like to pose me every now and then. :) Secondly to all of those friends I have online who have sent me information and shared photos and more with me!(Alot of you have been a tower of strength when RL has been a bit of a pain!)The words "Thank you" really doesn't seem to cover it very well to.. (in no particular order..)

  • Nora (Egraine)
  • Linda (LDGUK)
  • Laura(LJinx)
  • Sue(Witgob)
  • Debs and all the Ozzie mob at the FAM
  • Linda(True Blue Zhaan Fan)
  • All the fantastic mob over at the Farscape DB who help to keep me relatively sane!
  • The Dominion people-especially the PPR-Mreen,Rydra,and Silent Sea..plus the others..you have soooo much to answer for..Sock fic for one!lol
  • Stranger Still
  • Mesascaper
  • Dani(Shokoti)
  • Cat(XEngland)
  • Angie@Ben Browder.net for knowing what I have to put up with being a newbie webmistress and for sharing! :)

 

  • Heather Stockwell
  • Jeanie Lee
  • Joan Porcaro
  • Adam(Yenrug)
  • Kelly (Ceallaig)
  • And to anyone who I have forgotten..as there are just soo many of you! :)

Thirdly I wanted to thank all those who work *so* hard on Farscape(special thanks to Lani and Gigi from me for Starfury!)..without this show I would never have made the above friendships and would have missed out on a world of fun partying online and off! I also would never have seen Ben Browder..

Ahh..Ben Browder..

Ben..you are the "And finally.." Just wanted to say Thank You for working so hard on the show.I know you are one of many..(lol..you sound like a Borg.."One of many"..second cousin to "Seven of nine"! Sorry..er where was I..??) who slog their hearts and guts out to bring us the show..but you are the front man and as such, have to carry the can!<g> Thank you for the entertainment and for sharing your talent with us.The world is more the richer for it..(okay this is sounding really sad isn't it?) Anyway you are the reason this website exists..otherwise it would be about chocolate or something...and I'd have all those calories on my head..(and hips,and thighs and.. well you get my drift..) so you did the world a favour!..Okay I'm rambling again..but anyway...

Thank you! :)

Okay I'm done now-thanks for allowing me this indulgence..won't happen again..<g>..you can all throw squishy things at me now.. ;P lol

Merry Chrimbo to one and all :)

Well it's been a rough ol' year...but now is the time to try to forgive,try to forget and EAT LOADS!!<g> I hope that all of you have a Very Merry Christmas and a bountiful and Happy New Year. Let's hope that it will a little less traumatic than this one.. Hug your loved ones, smile nicely when you get that purple and brown three sizes too small hand knitted sweater from Aunty Ethel..and be gracious when you get hankies embroidered with someone elses initials for the third year running! Take care and have a good one form me :) and start thinking about those New Years resolutions now!<g>

 

The Tragedy in the USA.. :(

Okay I know this is nothing to do with Ben Browder or Farscape (well indirectly it is as Ben,Claudia and David Kemper along with Ben's family and two of the directors were in NYC when it all happened) but I had to say something even at this late stage to send my condolences to those who lost loved ones in the terrible acts committed and to the American people in general..my thoughts are with you :( There are many charities that have sprung up since this all happened, but if you would like to donate money to help the victims families, then off the top of my head I can think of Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk along with www.paypal.com who have links which enable you to donate.Also one of my online friends Cat, an American who was very touched by these events as I'm sure we all were, felt moved to put her thoughts and feelings into a touching music video which can be found here.(Update:- Well actually it's not there anymore..but it was..and she's now removed it..but it was beautiful..trust me!<sniff> :) )

 

Competition competition!!!!!

"Eh" I can hear you say...lol! Okay see this is the thing..I have a couple of Farscape Season 2 companions to give away..and a lovely Farscape In motion costume trading card featuring a piece of Ben Browder's costume...yes a piece of Black T's Black Tee!<g> I'm also hoping to get a few more goodies...anyway I have not got the faintest idea as to what to hold a competition about....so the first one is...a competition to send in the best competition ideas..<g>The best one and the one I actually use will be awarded one of the Farscape Season 2 companions..and I don't mind where you live...I'll get that book to you! :) If I end up having more than one entry for the same idea (and it's the one I want to use) I will bung them all in JC's Farscape 1 helmet and get a DRD to choose one at random..or maybe the cat..<g>...So if you want a go, send your entries to.. BritAngie@BenBrowder.co.uk marked Competition competition! Get those thinking caps on..the season 2 companion is well worth it :) The closing date for this will be 10th September...

 

Okay another daft thing trundling in under the "other stuff" banner...yes as you may have guessed I love Chocolate..and I have discovered this...the holy grail of over weight chocoholics everywhere!!!

Yep according to this book(By Sally Ann Voak )you can eat chocolate and still lose a stone in a month!!! For more info trundle along here.. Anyway for all those ladies out there who have tried every diet going and then some..this one should be fun!<g>...Now all we need is fat free chocolate...or chocolate that makes you lose weight...<g>

 

Anyway there is nothing much else here at the moment..so look at this picture of Ben instead.....

There yah go..doesn't that make you happy??Makes me happy :) I don't think Ben looks too sure!
