Here's some more pics [topic 2]

[Dahls]

A million years into the future, and they're still using this much lipstick.

Gorgeous nonetheless.

[fish]

... from the future...

Maybe she's the Doctor's new companion.
That's why she's been so hard to find.

We have to wait for the future.
Or is it the past?
I always get those two mixed up.

[Ian]

Now they know how we feel!

[Dahls]

future.
past?
I always get those two mixed up.

I just stick to the present.
Less confusing.

[fish]

And speaking of presents....
....What's Bex got for me today?


Bex: "Don't even bother Fish. You're not getting any closer."



Åw come on Bex.
I found that cute little pic of Kerstin from Christmas day.
Don't tell me I'm not getting close.

[Ian]

It's like a seriously stalkerish Easter Egg Hunt.

[fish]

Sounds like it for sure
but she knows my intentions are pure.

No time to look for anything today...
Gale force winds this morning
Trees out of their moorings
Blackouts
And still no bloody rain.



Bex: "Just my friendly little way of telling you to fick off Fush."

[Ian]

Sounds like it for sure
but she knows my intentions are pure.

Isn't that a line from a song?

[fish]

Isn't that a line from a song?

Oops. I meant to add a © symbol.


Fish: "Yes Bex. I know it isn't any closer to the real stuff I'm looking for, but at least it's from instagrim."

[Ian]

Bex grims and bears it as Ian's jokes get worse.

[fish]

No one ever thought that was possible.


I'm feeling a bit like Bex in this pic today.
Epic fails everywhere I went.
I'm beginning to think she might be right.




Naaaaaah!

[Ian]

Fish will never surrender!

[Dahls]

He sure won't.
And we all got your back.

Explanation #1.....
The thing about trees is this.
They can be very big and when they become stressed by wind (tick), heat (tick), or lack of water (also tick) they're liable to drop a few branches.

And the thing about power lines is this.
In most places here they're on poles above ground, not safely tucked away in trenches underground where they should be.

You see where I'm heading with this?
A few hours ago we lost all power through a falling branch taking out the cables.
It's only just come back on, which I might add is better than some of those suburbs which lost power last Tuesday due to the gale force winds.
Some had no electricity for three days.

Explanation #2.....
Bex has more power over the elements than we could possibly dream of.
Just as I thought I was getting somewhere with my search.... bang, crash, no electricity.


Fish: "Sorry Bex. You must know I never meant any offence."
Bex: "Humph!"

[Dahls]

My God, she's controlling the weather now?
Full of suprises that gal.



Sorry to hear about the storms, Fishy.
Hope it passes.
