For those post... 2010? The Nanny fans who want more fic and haven't discovered this one yet (or those older fans who thought this site was lost), let me introduce you to the Real Unofficial Nanny Home Page (RUNHP). Not online anymore, but well archived on the Internet Archive.

It was my home away from home for much of my teen years. It had screen caps when only a few people had capture cards. It shared interviews, appearances and titbits before we knew how to find them (especially us non-US folks). And it had fanfic. So much fanfic. I have personally archived about 800 stories from there.

Barb was the webmistress of the site, and especially in the beginning, you had to submit your story and she might not publish it. Also, most stories were written during the shows run, which means that most of it is Fran/Max. There is some Niles/CC, and I don't think there are any other pairings (except maybe TN Character/OC). Also, most of it is rated G or T, later stuff might be rated M/E.

Some authors made it over to FF.net (I don't think I know of any besides me who made it to AO3, if there are I would love to know) and republished stories there. But a lot are just on that site. Also, we did a virtual seventh which was quite fun.

Recommended authors: Christine Davis (F/M & N/CC), IvanaBGood (N/CC and the one who opened my eyes to that pairing), and SMB (F/M). If you want angsty teenager-written fic (some self-insert even) written by me, look for Sara (the one with the most fics).

Anyway, if you are craving more fics, if you want to see what people thought while the show was still on the air (and we didn't know even if Fran and Max would get together, let alone Niles and CC), have fun!

NB: There are later snapshots but at some point the encoding got messed up, and there are no newer (or not many at least) fics in later archiving.

Sunday's man on the radio is, as ever, playing Golden Oldies, 'Moon River' is being sung by Danny Williams. The sun is up, skies are blue and Storm Kathleen has, for the most part, moved on. It being Sunday, the traffic lady is absent, once more joining the queues, collisions and chaos ... that or (sensibly) she's at home still beneath her duvet.

Dandelions, dandelions, dandelions!! Looks like the sun gave itself a good shake all over the garden.

So tempting to try to photograph them all ... except I think my knees would quit from all the bending down way before I'd made any real headway.

"Most of the dandelions had changed from suns into moons" - Vladimir Nabokov

My Grandmother used to gather the heads and make wine from them. Not good for the bees, but that liquid certainly helped her hum her favourite tunes and tilt her head towards the sun, moon and stars ...

The feeling when you re-read your old fics and think 'damn, bitch, you NAILED it'.

Put on the 'oldies' station for the drive in to work and not one song playing was from before 1985.

Free: Listen to the 1938 to 1946 Radio Play of The War of the Worlds read out by Orson Welles

This audio recording is from the original diskette production and has been digitally uploaded to the library of the University of Indiana. This production is a radio play reading of the book titled The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. This recording, when it was live on air across America, caused a mass hysteria, panic and confusion for civilians, military personnel, government officials and media reporters alike. However, it’s still an interesting recording to listen to. Enjoy another great golden oldie.

Cold

a poem about surviving an abusive household

tw- implied abuse, descriptions of self harm

well here's an oldie! found this guy in my notes app the other day

I hate being cold

 i always have

The way our knees meet

and our shoulders touch our ears

Hours feel like years and

Our fears feel just

that 

Much

Louder

But still

I chose concrete

Still

I chose frozen

Still

I chose frozen concrete over going home

Still outside over inside

till 11 O'clock at night

that might not sound too bad

 but try doing that in mid winter

Mid grade nine

Middle of the night

Some guy sits in his parking lot

Although not just a guy but a kid

Although not just a kid but a kid who live

 ten metres away from where they sit

considering a blanket 

But

 that would mean going home

only for a moment

But still home

If you can still 

call it that at this point

There's a reason to choose

Frozen concrete 

over going home

Numb feet over sleep

Outside over in

And if outside is hidden

Pull inside out

When I've lost so much blood

I feel as if on frozen concrete

But still,

When ive lost so much blood

teeth meet 

and release 

and repeat

 a rhythmless monotony

I still 

Focus dizzy daze on reflection i find myself 

pale

Shaking

Wavering

 proud 

Although not just proud

but proud that I'm in control

For if I can't escape winter

I might as well create my own

Although not proud that I've hurt myself 

but proud that I've hurt myself

more than they ever could

 proud knowing

Although I hate being cold

i can control my own winter

Although i no longer

sit on frozen concrete

it feels wrong when im not shivering

It feels wrong when shoes aren't shimmering with

midnight frost

Midwinter lost me

and I feel bad for leaving 

Although I do hate being cold, i always have 

How can fingers

 be comprised

of fire and ice

at the

same time

How come I chose winter gusts over blanket

Still

No longer

Midwinter

Mid grade nine

Sidewalk sleeping a past time

Still

Finger freezing a past time

Still

Although i hate being cold i 

still force myself to be

Yeah,

I was one of those bitches that wore shorts in the winter

Got pneumonia twice because of it

I was too cool for jackets

Too committed for blankets

I had to be

Good at passing time watching dew freeze 

I had to be

time moves 

more slowly 

when you 

watch it

When knees meet and shoulders touch ears

Hours feel like years and

 fears feel just

 that much more real

I can't feel my toes

But i can feel what might happen if i go home so

Mid winter

Mid grade nine

A guy sits in his parking lot

Although not just a guy but a kid

Although not just a kid

but a kid with phone  face down on the concrete

for time moves more slowly if you watch it

Although not just a kid

 but a kid counting windows going dark

Pulling hoodie strings

as tight 

as they can go

 leave no window

for any winter

But your own

No finger leaves sleeves without being frozen

Although not just a kid

tremors like earthquakes lips cracked like the aftermath

But a kid who lives ten metres away 

Afraid

to stop shivering as that would mean

Going home

Considering a blanket

but that would mean going home so

Midwinter

Mid grade nine

A guy sits in a parking lot

Although not just a guy but a kid

Although not just a kid

but a kid who hates being cold, i always have
