In my notebook I found a handwritten 5 pages of notes for a story that was about 4 boys and a private yacht...The yacht was 175 feet with a pool and the boys weren't related. I think my uncle and I were jointly writing it... Sounds like a fun story. 5

I have a story I’m working on, historical drama, where one of the characters is an Irish monk. He speaks it a few times early in the story. I got the lines translated with help from some folks on a website I found ages ago, but I can’t find the site again, and I was considering adding some more... 7

I have to admit that I am not fluent in it. But I have a few friends who are, should you need help. [EDIT] Alternatively, Google Translate usually does a reasonable job.

There were a few corrections that needed to be made. Funny thing is, I didn’t work on the story for a while, and when I returned to it I realised I hadn’t written down the English versions of the lines anywhere. I knew from context roughly what they were meant to say, but I ended up using google translate to translate them back into English so I’d know what they actually meant, lol! 8

You'd need more than four people to pilot a ship like that. Just saying. Edited February 19, 2019 by Page Scrawler 5 1

I used to post to a place called FictionPress, a spin-off I guess you could call it from FanFiction.Net because so many people were using the original fiction section. Most other sites I came across before I found this one were so focused on erotica, and at the time I was, like, fourteen, lol! 10 hours ago, Timothy M. said: You're welcome, please let me know what you think of it.

The slice of pickled beetroot is also common in Denmark. We do pretty good paté in the rest of Scandinavia as well. The style varies a bit from country to country, but the Norwegian ones (aside from the cheap kid one that comes in a can) are pretty similar to the Danish. I actually tend to put lingonberry jam on mine, a trick we actually learned from a Danish family friend. She served us paté straight from the oven, on freshly baked bread, with lingonberry jam on top. So good! 3 hours ago, dughlas said: G'day y'all. I am so looking forward to my trip to Philly.

Popular Post clochette Posted February 19, 2019 Popular Post Posted February 19, 2019 Good day all. Another bright and warm day here with a high at 17℃ earlier this afternoon. I went to the artificial lake/nautical base to clear my head. I walked around it for over an hour and now waiting on a bench with the last of the afternoon sun warning my back to have a chat with my brother. 4 2
