Re: Lemoneyana

The URL for the Lemonyana icon seems to be https://iprovision.com.au/lemonyanas.gif for some reason unlike most of the other icons which are mostly under www. or static.darkgrimoire.com.

Re: Guardians of the Grimoire Anniversary

Charades at Fleur's starts in two marcs. We're having four categories for the charades: person, animal, object and place. John stands bracing his hands on his hips, puts out his hand and skitters his other over it in a vaguely spider-like manner, then holds his hands out in front of himself parallel...

Re: Memories

The first time I went to sleep in Fleur's and woke up to be chastised for leaving my boots on up on the couch. The chat and PMs before the raid to recover the queen ((John tries hard to forget some of the things he saw later)). Spear-fishing from Blade and Staff's rope-slide. Splashing about steerin...

Re: Caer Laleldan Cook contest

If I may just suggest a recipe: Killican Chutney: made from a judicious selection of that island's famous tangy fruit, chopped with care but not too fine, rested until approaching fermentation, heated with sea salt and some honey for sweetness, then decanted into cider casks to set and allow the fla...

Re: 6 Sentence Story...just because

Returning, my path strays where boyhood knew.

Attic-found termites are there justly reviled.
To run is required, lest I soon am dismembered.

Please note the venue for the fishing is Southern Shore Road (i.e. south of Lake Valorn) rather the Lake Path (north of the lake).
A few more details on the Summerfaire Fishing are available here.
