#c429

Now… I should say at this point that if you have voted for either of those things, I fear you have misplaced your trust and things will probably go very wrong, but if I am wrong, I’ll be delighted all round.

So, yes, I said to Elbe, that I felt somehow closer to my European cousins since the vote for Brexit, which is odd considering the nature of Brexit. To my surprise, she said she too feels closer to the Brits after Brexit – I suspect she feels sorry for us. I was immediately filled with a little more happiness than before, because this could be great.

For starters, it’s not always easy being the only country in Europe that the others all unite to dislike. It’s not easy coming last in Eurovision and knowing that half those ‘nil points’ votes were not because your act sounded like it was a cat in pain (although it did).

If Brexit makes them feel a little more related to us, strangely, then I’m pleased about that aspect.

About:

I have recently discovered original mesh brand ChicModa, who create (that I have seen) for the Maitreya Lara body only. ChicModa’s Danni Dress comes in a choice of 12 colours, has an elegant dip back and lace hem. It’s a lovely fit. You can pick it up at their mainstore or on marketplace, both linked above.

I’m a big fan of quality gifts and Swallow’s Iside Collar and Headpiece were a lovely gift to receive at Shiny Shabby this round. It was also a surprise, I didn’t notice other vendors offering gifts. When I get something this good, I like to go visit the mainstore and see what I’d like to buy, which I’m going to do as soon as I’ve earned some L$!

Here’s a few more pics including my ‘well lit, no shit’ shot…

Finally, here is a jigging for the rigging video. Danger, danger. I felt like some disco :D

I spent half an hour with my spider catcher sitting on the bed peering around, hoping it would come back so that I could give it a new home outdoors and then go back to sleep in peace, but no. The eight-legged freak showed no signs of wanting to return from between my bed and the wall.

I vacated the room, dragged my bedding downstairs and set up on the sofa which is long but not very deep and after reading and smoking for a while, I managed to fall into an uneasy sleep full of hairy-leg horrors and probably got about 3 hours before my neighbour started banging around.

I’m so tired. I’m going to have to go to sleep at some point, somewhere, but the idea isn’t appealing so far. Maybe it’d be easier to simply move out. Boris… you win, I’m just too tired to fight for the territory.

About:

Addams new release for Uber is the Tia Mini Leather Jacket and Barbie Dress. Wearing a bolero with a dress isn’t my usual style so I was surprised when I put it on and found I really liked it. Not only that, I felt a little like a matador.

Then, I got a genuine compliment from Frank (I mean Thom… yes that is still ongoing) about the outfit and it kinda sealed the deal. Fabulous colours, shiny texture, I commend them to you.

RealEvil’s Lumis Necklaces are on sale now at the Cosmopolitan Event until the 10th September. Each design comes with a HUD where you can change the metal, pendant colour and the amount of glow that shows when it’s dark. I took a few pics so you can see what I mean. Before I put it on I was concerned it would be like the full bright jewellery a la 2008, but it’s not – rest assured, it’s a classy piece that can glow when it’s dark if you want it to, and not if you don’t.
