Ayup!

Well will you look at that ... Mr HeavySmartyPants speaks true!

SO glad we nabbed him for the WT 😁

Welcome to Dragonmount, Eirik!

I'm afraid I can't really help you with the technical stuff ... are you posting on your phone? table? laptop?

I vote for "not" 😇

@Daruya Nothing's changed ... LoL ... just carry on as per normal 😄

*Eyes Rhea* ... yeah I also want ... those ... 🤔

He lives in Windhoek. And thinks nothing of driving 5 hours to spend a weekend camping and watching wildlife.

Well there you go then *grins*

We regularly drive 2 hours to Langebaan up the West Coast on a Saturday morning and then 2 ours back again in the afternoon, so ... lol

*Tacklesnugglehuggles Dar to the floor* Well hello you!!! How are you?? What's been happening? How are the horses?

My brother lives in Namibia. Next country over, lol.

He'd probably be closer, depending on where he lives?

I hope they have a cute anteater wander across the screen. And herds of oryx.

Yes!

How many hours drive is that for you? 😛 

About 5h30, depending on where exactly they'd be shooting 😁

Oooh hello, Ana! Which part of CT are you in? I'm in the Bothasig area.

I'd forgotten about that group ... lol ... I've invited you to the WT/W one.

I did too! Glad you're really enjoying it so far 🙂

The continuation of the characters, not just stubbornly resisting the paths laid out before them, but consistently ignoring the changes that occur to them is painfully frustrating for the reader.

Worse, it is not an accurate portrayal of a group of friends. Particularly friends who have grown up almost as brothers. Their unwillingness to discuss what is happening even among themselves rings false.

However, Matt who has the potential to be such a great character, just continues to act...well, like an idiot. 

It does become frustrating for us to read, but sadly this is how most humans really behave. Maybe you're a youngish person who grew up in a milieu where it's the norm to open up and discuss your feelings. That's not true of most eras, ages or eons, or most societies, even today. Especially for men, but that's how I grew up too (female, here :)).

As for Matt ... well, I know many people like that, including myself in many ways. I don't think he's badly written at all. Have you never had a friend that you just want to slap upside the ear because they continue to be their own worst enemy, despite their potential?

Nope, I'm sure you're there. Go post so we can see ... LOL

I do plan to build up my collection again

2nd hand book shop FTW, eh?

Where are you originally from, if you don't mind me asking?

(I'm from South Africa.)

Plus of course some interesting animals, apart from the usual Springbok, Kudu, Lions, etc:

That would be why they're looking at the Northern Cape - have been saying for years that the area would be perfect for it.

Some pictures:

I live in Cape Town. South Africa.

Do you think we have scared @megalomax enough by hijacking his thread, Mother? Or should we crank it up a notch?

Yank that crank ... it's our way of showing affection. Or boredom. Or both.

Why would the girls not be able to channel in the Ways? There's nothing preventing Channeling, only prohibiting it on account of it being A Really Bad Idea.
