A’reet, pals. It’s Friday night, an’ the midsummer air feels right. Are ye gettin’ yer berries for the wee bairns?
I tried telling Gemma4 to be less cringey. But wee bairns? All bairns are wee!
Should be back to 7pm next week at least. And the nicht ah’m playing sum tanks, the moro: Halo oan the couch, Sunday prolly oot and aboot wi the wee bairnies at my MILs. Wi some mair xbox thrown in fer good measure. Monday wi the kids again, an weather looking shite sadly. Probably some swimming then, baking, an library
And got tae get tae a post office tae mail ma da back his laptop, as the useless dooter left it here!
Plenty to keep you busy!! Are you still in caithness or back home?
Back in Embra now. But wanting to get back up sooner after this time. A few jobs needing done, and very peaceful. And, the Ember bus now stops in the village, so much easier to get up. I can probably leave Edinburgh about 2 and get there that evening, which is a game changer
Sounds like that works perfectly for more regular visits!!
Went to the Unseelie Gathering in Paisley. Learned that if you think you’re over-dressed for it you’re wrong.
Yes, looked more fashion-con than fantasy con! How much did you spend on your outfit?
Hard to say. Probably around twenty pounds though. All reuseable bits. Charity shop purchases. Stuff I’ve made. The armour is infact cardboard, so very light, but based on real world armour parts. Research! Held up surprisingly well.
Ooh what did you dress as??
You choose a family to be part of before the event. Each has a theme.
Mine was The Withered. So I wore some lovely but faded old clothes. A green table-runner as a scarf. Pointed ears and horns (sheep-like). Pinned some bits of vine in my hair and drew some vine-like swirls on my face.
Oh, and there was the metal-looking arm I made.
Well done indeed! Very creative. My costume making skills extend to hats off ebay. But I do love a hat!
That looks really cool!!
Home from Spain, went for some food shopping and cakes from a pop up place! Had a nice hot bath tonight, watching my shit programmes and eating a bit of cake!! Decadent!!
Mmm, cake. Got a nice big tub? No such luck for Edinburgh boy here. Another reason to head back up north! Did loads of sauna yesterday, I do love the heat
Nah just a normal sized bath, but I love a hot bath, with my ipad! I love a bath bomb but havent had one for a while, but I could lie there ages!! The apartment we had in spain had a roof top with hot tub! I loved it!!!
