Joachim’s Rez Day

dancing

Today was Joachim Sicling’s third rez day. Joachim’s missus, Love Kawaguichi threw a surprise party for him, so here we all are rockin’ out in the Onyx City Lights Club

get_off_me_CAKE

Joachim Sicling: Oi! Get off me CAKE! Yer boots are all muddy!

Wedding Belles!

So, I’m not really sure that I understand all this, but I’m gonna do my best with it all the same.

Our friends Peg and Qwerty were getting married…

01_father_of_the_bride

Dad had to give the bride away.
This is confusing to begin with because I didn’t know Dad had a bride, much less enough brides to have enough to give away. More confusing still is that if he is the Father of the Bride, doesn’t that make Qwerty my sister and if so, why did no one tell me? Everyone in the photo is looking very worried, but there’s a barrel of brandy there, just pour yourselves another glass, it’ll be OK!

03_walking_down_the_isle

Qwerty is walking down the aisle with Dad and Peg is waiting.

02_peg_waiting

Blimey! I see an et tu Brute? moment coming. This could get messy.
“Look Out Peg!” I shouted,  “It’s a trap!”

04_ceremony_begins

But no, it’s all part of the ceremony. Bridesmaids waiting, pipers piping and Gryphon gryphoning.

05_exchanging_rings_01

Exchanging vows…

05_exchanging_rings_02

…and rings and things.

06_kiss_the_bride

You may now kiss the bride!

 

Coco’s Birthday

CoCo_birthday

CoCo is Roe’s Dog. It was her birthday so we all went over to see her and have a little party and eat cup cakes.

(You may have heard about the fun fair next door. At face value it sounded like  a wonderful idea. But when the fun fair people made a ball pool with some 500 physical balls in it and everyone could hardly move, it was no fun and not fair. DUH!)

Archive Diving I

I’ve been digging in Logan’s external hard drive and I found some old, old photos from when Turing Isle and the VKC were very much younger.

2007-01-12-rico_first_training_class

As far as I know, this is the first ever Virtual Kennel Club Training Class. 12 January 2007.
Back in the day, they were hosted by Enrico Genosse himself and you had to pay L$300 to attend.

turing_isle_parcel_6-2007

Turing Isle Parcel Six, sometime in mid 2007.
Karys, this is where you live!
And look behind, the brown house is where Vlad’s store is now, and the yellow one is now the Vavoom! store.

Clairede Dirval

My friend Angel Kinomis was opening her new store and she invited me and Logan. While we were there Clairede Dirval came to sing and play.
In one word: fabbliarse! (-:

St. Patrick’s Day 2010

01-miller-logan-st_patricks

And so it came to pass that it was time to gather together again and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.

02-rezday

St. Patrick’s real rez day was on March 17, but we couldn’t wait any longer and we had our party on the weekend before.

03-celebratards

We were also celebrating the rez days for some of the Turing Isle residents who had been sick on their real rez days (or who are too retarded to remember when their rez day actually is). The celebratards were:

  • Blu Heron
  • SeaRose Charisma
  • Keiichi Ichtama
  • Solcar Amat – WTG Dad! You are THREE! (-:

03-1-dancers

So we had dancing…

04-drinking_green-beer

…and green beer…
This is Logan and Me drinking green beer and Doolittle is waiting and hoping that we don’t guzzle it all.
05-blu_Heron-drinking_green-beer

This is Blu heron drinking green beer and behind her is Doolittle sleeping off his green beer and in the back ground is Dad who has a bellyache from drinking too much green beer already.
It’s always the same.

06-irish_teddy_bear

When Blu H said that Irish Ted was coming, I thought he was at least gonna be a bloke a with a fiddle and I was hoping for a whole band. Little was I expecting this.

07-leprechaun

But, looking on the positive side, we had Leprechauns too.
This is soddem gomorrer gonorr gonetomorrer beggaroh oh bugger it, this is Shaun the Leprechaun.

…and inevitably…

08-monkeys-blu_h

…there were monkeys…

09-whois-this

I made a boo boo and I didn’t write down the name of this lady who was rockin’ out with her monkey. But, I think it’s Maharet Wrigglesworth. (And if I’m wrong, y’all will let me know, right?)

Blu and Rosanna are also in the photo. I’ll leave you to guess which one is which, though I should warn you that if you get it wrong, you’re probably dead.

10-when_and_ish

And this is Whenever Timeless and Ishtar Roux …and monkeys

11-paula_chunes

…and this is Paula Chunes, with green amber nectar …and a monkey.

12-monkeys_and_dancing

From Left to Right: Blu Heron, Rosanna Himmel, Whenever Timeless, Diddi Cazalet, Ishtar Rox, Me, Logan, Hazey Big Bear, Keiichi Ichtami, two blokes I can’t remember, Blu Sparkle, Karys Aarde, Cephus Levee, Joachim Sicling, Love Kawaguichi.

…and <sigh> monkeys.

 

 

 

Amber’s First Day

I went rifling through Logan’s drawers archives and found this.

It’s very special.

VKC-Chow_Chow-Ambers_First_Day

We all know the story of the VKC Chow Chow (and if you don’t you can read it on the Chow Chow page of the Virtual Kennel Club web site). This photo was taken on 28 April 2007 when Turing Isle was very young and I wasn’t even a twinkle in Dad’s eye and Dad was just a n00b. The photo was taken by Blu and shows Amber, Rico, Mitch Merricks and Blu on Amber’s first day in Second Life.

Tonya Kristen

tonya_horse_01

This is Tonya Kristen who came to visit us at the park, she’s a horse!*
.

tonya_horse_02

If you have a horse at home, it’s probably best not to give it the La-La-La-Laaaaa dance, although I have to say that the VKC Rottweiler and Doberman look very impressed.

Dennimore Golf and Park

Blu and Logan have a friend called Roe Woodford who today opened her new sim and sent an invite for everyone to come and visit…

group_photo_01

Blu, Logan, Roe, Dad, Alex

group_photo_02

…oooops, I almost forgot Coco (-:
.

roe_golf_cart_01

So then Roe fetched the golf cart and we all leapt about to go on a little tour…
.
roe_golf_cart_02

Logan and I are looking kinda worried as Roe carefully negotiates the dancers, but Alex is looking very chilled.
.
roe_golf_cart_03

A few minutes later we are even more worried as she tries to throw us all into the lake…
.
baby_duck

…but it’s OK, she wasn’t going to drown us, she just wanted us to have a good view of the baby ducks…
.
embarrassed_duck

…and the embarrassed duck.
.

roe_golf_cart_04

Just when we were starting to relax and enjoy the ride, we find out that the golf cart can FLY! Now we’re more worried than ever…
.
roe_golf_cart_05

Thankfully, it’s a short flight with a safe landing, and I breathe a long sigh of relief as Roe abandons the cart by the club house and walks away…
.
blu_golf_cart_01

My relief is, however, short lived as Blu jumps into the driver’s seat and Logan jumps in beside her…
.
blu_golf_cart_02

Cazaluff is riding shotgun as we charge across the little bridges with reckless abandon.
.

abandoned_golf_cart

We spot a long abandoned golf cart in the woods. There is no sign of the driver or passengers. I guess the bears even ate their bones.
.

blu_golf_cart_03

And we wish Karys was here to help us push the cart up the steep slope…
.

blu_golf_cart_04

Before Blu takes us back to the garage and slings the golf cart tyres-a-screaming into the parking bay in a very deft manoeuvre to rival Elwood’s driving.
.

clubhouse_01

Finally we go back to the Clubhouse where Logan has a couple of Tequila’s and passes out on the table whilst Blu and Alex torment me singing and doing the La-La-La-Laaaaaa Dance.
.

clubhouse_02

Then they meet up with Dad and do a whole bottle of Tequila before they all pass out on the table.

Thanks for having us Roe, it was a grand day out (-:
