Tales of Home [5]

You have to have the 'feel' first, I should imagine it just flows thru this chap right down to his finger tips.
And I do like that chair Dave !    

Some of his furniture can have a dark side too. I've sat in this chair. It's made from a large maple burl and ancient spruce knots. It's quite comfortable but somehow feels...not evil exactly.... Maybe sinister is the word?

Looks pre-cambrian carnivorous.   

Nice chair but, mmm yeah, creepy ! definitely something youde associate with a baddie   

I found a lovely big web in the garden as I was leaving today, Im surprised picture came out ok as sunlight was so bright after the down pour we had. You'll have to zoom out to see whole picture   

Beautiful Az!

When I see webs like that, it reminds me that many of the Native Peoples have stories of Old Spider Woman who taught the first people to make nets and weave cloth and baskets. I can imagine an old Neanderthal woman half a million years ago looking at just such a web and thinking, "Oooooh! I could catch birds and bunnies a fishes with one of those, just like sister spider! "

You're quite romantic in a spiritual kinda way    I appreciate all the hard work that spidy does in making these things. Some are beautiful, especially if they catch the dew drops from early morning. I actually feel sorry for the spider if his web gets ruined & he has to do it all again !

Norc sent me this today http://atchuup.com/marines-messing-with-kids/

No idea if it's real or not, but it was a fun read all the same, and this supposedly happened not far from where I live

Where is Norc? The place is too quiet without her   

And for that matter where are your holiday snaps Ringdrotten? Still photoshopping out all the trolls?

Great story! I'll say it definitely has the ring of Truth from an American perspective.
If the Fjordlanders can confirm that filling the enemy's snowsuit with snow is within the normal rules of engagement, I think we can be fairly confident this happened pretty much as written.

Hi Norc! 


{{{edit: Oh wait, there's a thread for that. Duh!}}}

Indeed, Petty! They are everywhere

As to Norc's whereabouts - she seemed to have a lot going on, so she didn't have time to pop in today. No worries, though, I'm sure she'll be back and lighten things up soon enough

Hi guys lot going on, i'm moving and arranging parties


I think the story is pretty legit, those small bastards are pretty good with snowballs. We used to have Sara going on between the 7th graders and the 4th graders ... Put snowballs in the river to make then more icy... Also his rocks in them great times...

Also played violin all week last week and no internet, ny FB-BFFS would know

Parties!!   

'played violin all week last week'

So does that at least mean we have some music to listen too?

Weve been having our annual Airbourne show again. These planes, Lancasters, are brutes ! they are massive.The show ends tomorrow (sunday) with a spectacular Fireworks display in the evening.

Amazing planes- very impressive and so iconic.

I wonder if thats the same airshow Lance was off too? Just keep an eye out for someone who looks like a spy but drives a ford capri   

   Thats not as easy as you think ! The town is full of numpty's !    The Red Arrows were outstanding. I think we take them for granted but, what they do is impressive & I think they are pretty brave.

No

 Well record your concerts next time!!

So why cant we listen to them then?   

because my mom filmed it and did something i didn't think was possible on an iphone, film everything vertically.... *facepalm* but also it's kinda shitty quality though...

and also i can't be bothered...

i did promise (at least Eldo here) that i'd write an essay on why LOTR is a modernistic novel, which i intend to do... some time soon, dunno when as i am way to busy packing and moving south for violin-school-thing, but it's on my list
