Well, I'm not sure, but I think that, if there are no accidents or other traffic obstacles and I were to drive that long ─ at highway speeds ─ toward the south-east, I'd probably end up in either Germany or the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. If I were to drive that long to the south-west, I'd probably end up in the vicinity of Paris, France.
If I were to drive that long to the north, I'd be somewhere in the middle of the Netherlands. And if I were to drive that long toward the northwest, I'd blub blub, no, blub blub, I blub think the blub engine's blub stalling... blub blub blub... Hey look blub, a blub dolphin! blub :p
Oh, but haven't you heard the news? Apparently I'm an artificial intelligence. :ttr:
Awwwww, thanks, Your Lord Sidiousness!

Hmmm. Must be some pretty advanced programming going on...I will chance it.
Don't want to be a misery guts, but we have just been through the most horrendous spring & summer. We seemed to have missed autumn, although the leaves fell and they are now talking about the first snows of winter.
I live in the central west slopes and plains of New South Wales, just beyond the Blue Mountais of the Great Dividing Range. From here and further West, we experienced the worst drought in the living memory of most of we oldies, and some of them are over 90.
I have never known of fires like we experienced, which hit every East Coast State, plus South Australia. They just seem to break out everywhere, one after another, and we were glued to the TV for the next news.
We began to run out of water in the catchment dams. We went onto water restrictions, and are still unable to use a hose at all. We can only water with a watering can for half an hour on Wednesdays and Sundays, because our Shirley dam has still only made it back to 30% of capacity, from the little bit of rain we have had.
You couldn't imagine the sort of dust storms, that came over to us from further West. Goodness knows what was in that dust, besides fire smoke. I'm now allergic to every grass they test for, and I think they must have all been in that dust, because I haven't had Asthma like this since I was hit with it from the 70s till the early 90s. I thought I was beginning to be better with the allergies when I began taking special serum from Spain, which cost 400 Australian dollars for a 6 months supply, but this was too much to cope with. I was so lucky not to be in a fire zone, we were just surrounded by smoke all day.
With this virus we actually have done very well, they locked us down quickly and pretty well completely, so we are about to go into lesser and lesser, lock down as from the 1st June, and I hope it won't be too long before our oldies I can get to meet again once a week. My god I might even miss my weekly hit of Bingo, and the game Tri- ominoes, you try it, it keeps you mind going. We have a volunteer, who bbrings in a memory game, for three to six years old which is mind bending to play, so hard. Most of them can hardly manage, and I can barely keep up with Lynne, because your brain just has to lock out every so often, from the concentration -she is used to playing with the littlies, who can play these games, no problem.
Love to all, colleen.
Ooh I had forgotten about the fires, but games..
I haven't played triominos for years but over the last few years our games collection has grown to this..

As for the quarantine, we've been doing pretty well. I am in a so called essential job. So work life has been "normal"-ish.
All the kids back home is a bit of a challenge at times though.. I can very much relate to zoning out in front of a television..
as for memory games we received a copy of 13 monsters today.
Its the old memory, but in the end you build monsters that fight each other. Great fun, Played it at spiel essen last year. It was promoted there as a kickstarter. Final product arrived today.. jay.
With Love

That looks like a great game collection, Catsquotl. We love to game, mostly board games and some good card games.
Have you ever played the Garden Game?

Yes. Where they make all of the brews on the premises. It is registerd as a Public House or, Pub.
In fact, just got back from there. My local friend from the area came and picked me up so we could each have a pint and support the Pub in challenging times. We all have to sit outside and the beautiful weather made it the perfect setting to relax and enjoy good conversation and friendship.
We both chose their lowest ABV percentage brews. None of my circle are drunks or care to get that way. Needless to say, we always have great times with zero drama.

Well, the Tent is peaceful and filled with a sweet and playful nature. :priest:
Looking out of the Tent towards the Shire it appears things are mellow at the Emporium, but a few spots out there......:blink:
Knock knock, I know I know , breathe.
Intents out there, intents here ?
Intents me, relax with butter Sammy, no not you Chestor lol
The Schuman (Gaia) frequencies are quite intense and do reach the Tent, but it would seem sacred space makes those spikes a bit more tolerable.
May the blessings continue to be such.:wiz:
Some quakes from Mama and increased frequencies and, who knows what else. :rolleyes:
Anyway, I was inspired to post this one.
