To Those in the Know

I'm in Bradford!! Which is where I grew up, those of you who are like "Where the fuck is that?!" Yeah...valid. It's on the Avon!! I've just been spending time with Mumsie, Joe, Julian and my Mary. And it's been fantastic, even if Mums beat ALL of us at naughty word Scrabble last night. I was erm...slightly too inebriated to be much good. Mary very nearly caught her though!! They're feisty! And today, I showed Mary all around the town I grew up in. So the poor dear had to hear horror stories like 'that's the alley I threw up in after going to Bobby Ridgeway's party and eating too much cake'. Pleasant, no?! And there was the 'this is the house I very nearly got laid in until I realised that would be all unholy, and ended up offending the girl'. Which was fair enough because I actually DID use the word 'unholy'. Poor thing. She was really excited too, and I shattered her unholy dreams. And mine too, mind!

On the back porch of the house I spent my whole life in. I remember sleeping out there in the summer with Adam and Joe. We were adventurers see. You know...on the back porch...

Mary in the morning. God, she's gorgeous...

I might be a little drunk already, there...

Joe is actually NOT drunk. He was 'fixing' Mums' telly and I said "Joe, you look like you're talking to it.." and he said "I AM THAT'S HOW YOU FIX IT!!" Silly, Thomas. Incidentally, he DID fix the thing...

Best part about going home? Finding old blackmail pictures. Look! My older brother is covered in balls! AHHAHHA!

And there's this. Which I feel quite dirty posting...but seriously...it had to be done. Joe. What in the hell? Mums found it and she nearly cacked herself laughing.

I look quite grumpy. And a little like George Clooney...which is very strange. But see, I can get my rage on! And my Batman too!

And then Julian showed me his Spectre forum what has pictures of little Spectre on it and I'm sorry. These ones just...I'm dead now. For reals. LOOK at him!!! His hair is short!! (And I very much want to lick his chest...)

*dies*
And I have to stop now, because there's too much cute. I may explode.
Do I get 'disturbing points' for putting a picture of my nearly naked brother AND pictures of my lovers in the same picspam? I really think I should...

Also, I can't say that the preservation of Joe's body is a bad thing, either. He's a very attractive man. When he's not poking television sets...
It's very strange seeing Spectre with short hair. But the blonde streaks work for him very nicely.

Date: 2007-11-22 10:42 am (UTC)I like it too. I was happy! I am happy. I'm sad Mums is selling the place, but I'm glad I get to have a last partytime here. It was a good place to live. Full of love. Not so much full of money, but love is more important. And I'm sure that he is!! I can't look directly AT the photo though...
Don't they just?! I love it like that! And like it is now too.

Date: 2007-11-22 10:52 am (UTC)I love to see you happy, Thomas. That place has been so imbued with love, that doubtless it will bring many joyful years to a new family. It's good to pass on that sort of thing. Priceless, in fact. The Littleton house contains everything that money can't buy.
I'll remember your aversion to the Joe photo should I ever need to be horrible and taunt you.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 10:56 am (UTC)It certainly does. I hope whomever lives in it next can feel love just emanating from the walls. Which is kind of weird, but it's a nice thought!
Oh, thanks!
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:04 am (UTC)I know exactly what you mean, and I certainly feel it. I think it's something that will last for a long time.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:09 am (UTC)I hope so. It feels good to pass that on.

Date: 2007-11-22 10:25 am (UTC)You, however, look divine. What a beautiful man you are, Thomas, drunk or sober. You make a sensational George Clooney! Much better than the original.
I'm not sure I ever wanted to see quite so much of Joe... I'm glad I had the ball-pit photo to keep scrolling back to. He does have a very nicely-toned body, though.
I love the photo of Mary. That's a work of art.
It sounds like you've all had such a wonderful family time together. I'm very happy, though I do wish I could have been in two places at once!
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 10:47 am (UTC)Ooh, thank you!
Hahaha! He's quite amused! He says 'Yeah, that reaction proves you're my brother now!' That, or frightened by men brandishing leaves!
Isn't it? It's so Mary.
I wish you could have too. But there will be more family time. This isn't the last time I'll be here. Speaking of, Mums is poking me and telling me to inform you that you are expected at the family Christmas do. Which I probably won't be here for, but as Ellie and Adam would be, that's probably for the best. She says she doesn't know where it is yet because it used to be HERE and here should be sold by then. The food and the love aren't to be missed. I know that from experience.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 10:56 am (UTC)Oh yes, Joe and I definitely have the brotherly love. It would be a pity if I were afraid of men brandishing leaves, what with your propensity for gardening...
I would love to join in the Littleton Christmas do! It could even be at our place, should it please Lavinia. We have plenty of room, and a spacious kitchen for everyone who wants to lend a hand with the cooking. It's an option, anyway. I'll be there, Mum can stop poking you now!

Date: 2007-11-22 10:59 am (UTC)What a good point!! Honestly, I never felt the urge to POSE in my garden though...which is good because that probably would have been frowned upon at the Abbey...
She says that's a wonderful idea and she thinks you're brilliant. And I think she said something about a pert bum...but I tried not to listen to that part...(though she IS right...)
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:07 am (UTC)I'm sure you could have found a rationale for naked garden posing. It could have been a study of Adam's innocence. "And now, let us study the innocent penis..."
I'm a little worried that I first read that as Bert Plum, and wondered who he was... I'm glad to find it was appreciation of my bottom instead!
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:12 am (UTC)...for a second, I thought you meant my brother...and my brain split it two. I really don't WANT to study his penis!!
...AHAHA! Oh, Spectre. That's priceless.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:23 am (UTC)Oh goodness! Noooo, certainly not that Adam! Not that I really want to study the other Adam, either...
I'm glad you think so!

Date: 2007-11-22 11:25 am (UTC)Yeah...fair enough!

Date: 2007-11-22 10:28 am (UTC)Those are some truly beautiful (and occasionally silly) pictures. Joe teaches us to have a greater appreciation of nature, as well as television. He is a man of contradictions. Meanwhile, you teach us that life is beautiful while sober, but it's just funny while drunk.
Your lovers are gorgeous, you lucky man.

Date: 2007-11-22 10:49 am (UTC)Joe is a man of contradictions and lots of balls!
I know they are! And I know I am :) And I tell them I think that too.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 10:57 am (UTC)They're very lucky to have you, too. It's a good system.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:01 am (UTC)Thomas appreciates that you appreciate him! Honestly...I never saw the point in hiding who I was. I was just me. And if people didn't like that, oh well. Oddly enough, I think most people did like it. Which I hope doesn't make me sound vain.
I really think so too.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-22 11:08 am (UTC)I think most people love it. I certainly do, and more the fools they who don't. They clearly don't know what they're missing.
