David Warner wrote me back. BY HAND.

Oh my god. I'm going to explode with squee! !!! <-- excessive punctuation needed!



I blacked out my name for the protection of the innocent, however, omg. HE WROTE BACK. Not some automatically generated printed off crap, but, HE WROTE BACK. Oh my god.

Clicky for biggerness.

Dude! That's so fantastically lovely of him. Yay for people who take the time. And also use the phrase 'bin-worthy', heh. You must be on cloud 9.

I am WIPING TEARS, people. Just in time for my birthday.

My god, he's humble and wonderful and human on top of it all.

*is stunned beyond belief right now*

Wow! I hope you used Gimp to black out your name ... :(

But ... wow!!! I would imagine he doesn't get much in the post from fans these days, so you probably really made him happy. :)

And just ... WOW!!! How astonishing is this???!!!

Oh yeah, i didnt mess up the letter, just blacked out the name in the picture i took of it so no one evil pegs its me...

I think it shows just how classy the man is. Stratford was almost sold out when i went to buy tix for it in APRIL for an AUGUST performance, so he must be pretty damn popular, so i am even more amazed he wrote me back. Really just gobsmacked and stunned.

Peter Davison with his fifteen kids and grandkids / family situation that squicks me out anyway, and his lack of patience when it comes to a simple photo with a fan, is off my list entirely - why idolise his arrogance when i can be a fan of someone so deserving as David?

Ok i admit it, i'm wiping tears again. I cant help it, this was just in time for my birthday, and just amazing to get. Posted on the 1st of May, yesterday, postmarked from South London (probably his home, as the address of the agent is in West London). No return address of course, but man oh man.

That's awesome, Honey, I'm so thrilled for you :)

Thrilled is an understatement! Thanks Katie :)

I'm so touched i cant quit crying :)

After all the bad things in my life of late, I get a handwritten letter from David Warner - the rest of the world can fuck off, i'm on cloud nine :)

How lovely of him! :)

You often hear that fan letters to celeb-folk just get a bog-standard agent thank you in response so that's really nice of him to hand write a personal letter! Bless him!

And keep taking deep, calming breaths or you might fall over... ;)

Exactly - i was expecting a bog standard agent's reply in a few weeks' time.

I never expected the spanish inquisition!

*breathes slowly, tries not to cry any more*

I am stunned, gobsmacked, and in love that much more.

WOW! That's fantastic. Lucky you! What a lovely bloke he is!

Isnt he :) I'm glad i found someone suitable/worthy of my fangirly-ness... Peter Davison let me down, big time :/

LOL... typical male writing. I can barely read it. :( It'd take me a bit longer to learn his handwriting, but anyway...

SO FUCKING AWESOME. I'D HAVE HAD A HEART ATTACK.

I was too busy crying like a great big girl :D

I can read it, no problem!

I am sitting here squeeing right along with you. How cool is this?????!!!! What a lovely, lovely man. And that phrase "bog-worthy". X-D I hate to admit it, but I have to agree with him.

As for the hand-writing, I used to be a secretary for two Englishmen (one from London and the other from Birmingham), so the hand-writing, though typically messy, was not too much of a burden.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm on top of the world today. Absolutely in orbit. :)

I wrote it first, i said that a lot of the movies he was in were worthy of the bin, but that they sat on my shelf because he was in them, elevating them beyond the bin with his incredible talents, or some such gushing sentence to that effect...

My husband's a local and his handwriting is so illegible I have to ask him to translate sometimes. I read David's just fine, thought it was fantastic. My own handwriting is pretty bad these days so no problem.

When i see him, I might just kiss him!

OMG that is absolutely amazing! See how older actors appreciate their fans enough to take the time to write back? That's an actor that deserves respect! *claps* Kudos on the letter! *hug* :D

May I just say, "Dooooood!" That is so tremendously awesome! Happy birthday to you, leonie! The last paragraph is completely illegible to me, but I guess it doesn't matter, so long as you can read it! :D I'm glad you've finally found a celebrity crush worthy of your affection (it's Peter Davison's loss, totally).
 
posted by [identity profile] leoniedelt.livejournal.com at 06:42am on 03/05/2007
Dood! I'm so happy :)

The last paragraph says "I hope you enjoy the plays, as you say Birmingham isnt too far. All The Best, Thanks Again, David Warner."

Davison has no idea what a fangirl he crushed at the Invasion, no, he doesnt. I was a massive massive fangirl, too, for a long long time. Ah well. His loss, David's gain, and David seems to genuinely appreciate it!

I CANT F'ING BELIEVE I DIDNT READ THIS ENTRY BEFORE! You've got to be F-ing kidding me. Okay, sorry I'm so so HAPPY! This is awesome! But...I can't read his writing too well. What did he say in the first sentence with "US"? I can't even read it when I clicked on it bigger, for shame on me.

Omgosh..this is so awesome! Hopefully I can send that photo out?! I wonder if he'd get it?! Ahhhhh! This is so cool! Congrats girl.
 
posted by [identity profile] caribbean-moon.livejournal.com at 02:59am on 03/05/2007
Okay....I can kinda make out some of his writing. I can read some words, others I can't. Can you please translate for me?! Pleeeeease, haha. Just a brief summary, thank ye!

Kristina.

WOooh for you! That's brilliant and very nice of him =D And he has quite nice handwriting
 
posted by [identity profile] leoniedelt.livejournal.com at 08:09pm on 04/05/2007
I think so too! Its legible enough - mine's worse these days than his, and he's nearly 66 :D
