  1. Not too bad. Helping boyfriend look at job stuff. He's a bit stressed out... Needs to get a job and apply for a permit before Brexit, lol
  2. Morning, everyone! Hope you're all well today. Hey, Marty! How are you faring today? How did the blood tests go? Morning, Val! Oof, laryngitis is not fun! Hope you feel better soon.
  3. Morning, tim! Hope you have a nice day as well. Morning, DiC.
  4. Heading to bed in a minute. Night, everyone!
  5. Off to bed in a minute, you guys. Night all!
  6. Huh, that looks pretty interesting. I should give that a go. I've been to that part of the country a couple of times. It's gorgeous.
  7. Take care of yourself, dude.

    Stuart's not introduced until book two, but I'd love it if you read them!
  9. Hey, A! Not too bad here. How's your day been?

    This was really sweet. I have a few friends who are ace, and I've written a couple of asexual characters as well (Stuart from the Nemesis books is one, he's also aro, and I've got one in a novel I've been working on too). It's cool to see other writers tackle this topic as well. Thanks for writing this. Representation matters.
  11. Huh. You're younger than me, lol!
  12. It was one of my favourite places, for sure. I think I was there at least three times. Just so sad they closed. Oh well, that's capitalism for ya.
  13. Oh wow! That's awesome! I'm jealous, lol.
  14. Hey, Mac. Quiet night in, here. We ordered Chinese. Hope you both enjoy the show!
  15. When I was a kid there was a theme park near Oslo called Viking land. They put on historical (but child appropriate) plays, had actors walking around dressed in period appropriate clothing who would look at a gameboy and go, 'What sorcery is this??' Fun place. They also had horses, and you could ride them round this little track. So that's where I got to try tölt. Sadly, they closed it down sometime around 1999 in favour of expanding the next door amusement park's area for new rides. Sad, really. It was very educational. Kids learned a lot of history and mythology both there.
  16. Goodnight, Marty! Good luck with the blood tests.
  17. Haha! Yeah, they're like that here, too. I've ridden a couple of Icelandics... Or, I say ridden... I've sat on them while someone led them, mostly. But that special gait of theirs, tölt, is a very different feeling from the gaits of other horses.
  18. Fjord horses are lovely, too. I've known a couple. When I was in kindergarten one of the teachers ran a riding school. We got to go there a couple of times to ride the Shetland ponies, and they had two Fjord horses there as I recall...

    Today was warm enough that I could wear my coat open. I'm glad you enjoyed my poem. Thank you.
  20. Happens to me all the time, lol! One must always eat in the cafeteria. We had Swedish meatballs. Yum! Isn't he? His name is Juniblest, which translates to June wind. Hi, Albert! Goodnight, Clo! Sweet dreams.
  21. Hi, Randy! Hope you're well. I normally hate shopping... There are only two kinds of shopping I really like. Books and IKEA, lol! IKEA is alike a furniture museum.
  22. This is my friend's horse on the metro in Oslo, lol!
  23. Bits and bobs? All the stuff that doesn't fit in anywhere else. That's what I'd do. Glad you're having a good day!
  24. They're lovely, though not very big. Most horse breeds native to this part of the world are technically ponies. Like the Icelandic horse or the fjord horse.
  25. I live in Oslo, which has roughly 100k more people in it than Dublin, though over a larger area... I quite like cities, personally, as long as they're not, you know, enormous. I'd never want to live in, say, London, as much as I like to visit.
