EXCITED

This is a sneak peek from our publicity photos for the next Harry Potter event I'm organising. This one is for adults and we're planning all sorts of shenanigans for it. I'm so excited!!!

That's me, second left. The idea is that we're the modern Hogwarts professors, from 2015, and the guests are finally getting their Hogwarts letters and getting to spend a night as wizards. I'm not 100% sure what's happening in this photo... I guess we took the Knight Bus? :D

I'll try not to bore you silly with stuff about the event! It's 6 weeks away and I feel like it's really starting to come together now. <3

That is a darn majestic photo you got going there :D

Good luck with the event!

Thank you so much. "Majestic" LOL. This one's going to be on a poster, so hopefully people will feel encouraged to buy a ticket, and not just creeped out :D

Omg, you badass!!!!! This is so fucking COOL! :-DDDD I want my ticket!!!! *wails* Seriously, you're all going to have ridiculous amounts of fun! <333

Oh, I do hope so! *hand wrings* I'm alternating between total fear and utter excitement. And it's only going to get worse, LOL.

I don't know about cool, I think we possibly look like deranged geeks, but hopefully Harry Potter-esque kind of deranged geeks.

My best friend Clare on the end, swinging off the bus, is just superb. She's channelling a kind of Herbology/Magical Creatures professor here, and the photographer just kept shouting, "MORE CRAZY! MORE!" :DD

THAT'S SUPER COOL

Thank you!

That pic looks fantastic! I'm sure the event will be awesome!

I'm hoping it will be a lot of fun. Glad you like the photo!

Awesome pic is awesome!! you guys look great. :D

Thank you! We all like a good excuse to dress up (well, except for the bloke - he dresses like that all the time :D)

Killer shot! I wanna hop that bus!!! *waves wand hand wildly*

We'll stop and pick you up, don't worry! Hop on board!

Wow what a fantastic picture you all look amazing :)

Thanks so much! It was really good fun having the photos done.

I want to live in your town. Or have you organize fun things in my town.

Come! There are fun things on nearly every week here!

Fantastic! I love it!

I'm glad people think it looks fun!

This looks so exciting!

\o/

Wonderful photo! You all look so wizardly. Exciting stuff! Can't wait to hear about the event :)

Oh, wizardly is the best compliment! You'll definitely be hearing about it, don't worry :D

I hope you'll have all the fun! :D

Thank you! It's shaping up nicely, I think.

omg I want to go to a Hogwarts where you teach. What's your subject? Arse-tronomy, Dickinations, or Charms?

ARF! Last time, I was a prefect in charge of the Sorting Hat. This time, I quite fancied running a Duelling club. I want something swashbuckling :D

You all look brilliant! And that sounds like enormous fun :-)

On a related note, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you're having a splendid one.

Thank you so much! My birthday was fab! And I'm glad you like the photo, too.

OHH, this looks great! You must keep us apprised of all shennanigans!

Wooo Birds pic! It's like seeing a celeb. And get you with the great hair! Such a gorgeous colour.

I love how precariously balanced the lovely lady on the end looks, and how thrilled she appears about it <3

There will be regular shenanigans updates, I hope!

Yep, I went blonde the other week. It's a WIP - they're trying to get the red out so that I can go pastel :D

The balancing loon is my bestest friend. She's amazing. There were other photos in which she appeared even more precarious and insanely happy, but the rest of us didn't look as dashing as we did in this one, so this is a compromise.

It looks really really cool! And you all look so fabulous! And slightly crazy in the best possible way :D I want to go too! It looks so fab!

Thank you so much! Crazy in the best possible way was exactly what we were aiming for! Maybe you can come and join us on the night?

Great photo! You all look so cool, with you looking like the total badass in the group! It sounds like an amazing event. Your lucky guests!

Lordy, if I'm the badass of the group, we know there is some SERIOUS dorkery happening! I really hope the guests enjoy it. We have some brilliant things planned for them, but it's just hoping that it all comes together.

Oh, how exciting!! That looks fantastic, and you're all so fantastically costumed, and look like you're having so much fun, that it would have me signing up in a minute. And do hope you'll share some of the details! It was great to hear about the last one.

Thank you! I'm so glad it looks appealing! I'll definitely share more about it. It's at the nerve-racking stage of planning right now ://

Lol, just want to stop in after checking out your list of likes to mention that passing this post, I read "I'm organising" as "I'm orgasming" lmao!

Hahahaha! I wasn't quite orgasming in this photo, but I was quite excited!

How cool!

*wants a letter*

I wish you could all join us!

This is amazing, Birds. OHMY GOD, this picture is absolutely magical!!!!!! Do you have more??? You're rocking that outfit by the way, the boots! :D:D

Hehehe, it's like a festival of boots! Nicky who's standing next to me in the wig, her boots were amazing, dark green and high-heeled!

I'm so glad you approve. There are more photos and I'll share soon, I promise. Just chasing my tail here.

That picture is FANTASTIC! You all look great. :D

(oh, and a very happy belated birthday, best of birds! ♥)

Thank you so much!

This looks amazing! I hope you'll be sharing the final posters too :)

Thank you! I'll definitely post some more details as it starts to come together!
