ETA: In true ATS style, it's a Finspiracy!

Gordi drew his sword, turned to nod in united agreement with Pudge and Mixie, and simply said:

"Let's do BOTH!
Troll... SMASH Monster Things AND chase after ELF!"

Before the words had finished falling from Gordi's lips, Troll (the troll) had leaped forward into the fray!
Pudge grasped his mighty Axe and ran after him, with Mixie fluttering just above his head.
Gordi made his way to the right and just into the treeline, matching the forward runs of Troll (the troll) and Pudge, hoping to intercept any hidden dangers from the forest or catch any stray beasts who were trying to escape.

As they pressed forward, they became engulfed in the strange thick purple fog which was hanging in the clearing, making it hard to see more than a few yards in any direction. There was an almighty CRACK! as Troll (the troll) ripped up a tree to use as a makeshift club, and then moments later the beastly bodies started scattering in all directions, howling and screaming like tormented Banshees from the deepest and darkest of realms.

One HUGE creature lunged forward menacingly and made straight for Pudge, but Mixie swiftly pirouetted in mid-air; drawing her tiny wand in a rising arc then bringing it swirling down, creating a vortex of sparkling glitter straight into the snarling face of the on-rushing beast... It froze instantly, entranced by the Pixie's magic spell just long enough for it to see Pudge's mighty Axe come smashing down through the glitter onto its skull.

Another came slinking out of the underbrush, hoping to out-flank the brave Dwarf, but it hadn't seen Gordi just a few feet away and a flash of steel to the beasts neck saw another one fall.

The companions had by now reached the far-end of the clearing and Gordi could sense his friend Nightstar was very close-by. So they pressed on into the forest, cutting down any loathsome beasts that crossed their path.

"Nightstar..... Ah'm Here..... Ah kin sense ye're close by..... We'll be with ye shortly.... "

They carried on for a few more yards, just past a large group of Oak trees, and It was then that they saw IT....

G'day Fin !

G'day Timely!

Yes, Here in Finland we have plenty of forest roads. Relatively large country and the population density is low. So... a bunch of teenage kids, some free time and father's old Toyota Corolla '78 parked in the yard just waiting to be drift-style driven. Of course plenty of very unwanted stuff happens due to that too... and Finland's history of residents drinking way too much alcohol. But i won't bring that stuff over here to the Shed. Let's just say all of us do not become star-status drivers of formula one or rally. Some of us do, though, as you pointed out

And lastly, i am not a grammar nazi, heck, English is not even my native language. Finnish is. So: It is Ari Vatanen and not Ari Vartenen as you wrote.

Race car driving is not my cup of tea, as a sport. Hockey is. So i am eagerly waiting the next winter's olympics at South Korea. We don't have a gold medal in olympic ice hockey. So when the time comes, the games start, i guarantee i will be raising some serious

Yes, Kalle was 100% correctly written, even the A with dots on top a.k.a. Ä!

Driver, glad you enjoyed the movie. I just loved Magnus!
That was quite an interesting take on Metallica's 'Nothing Else Matters. I must admit I like the original version so much better, but I'm a huge Metallica fan.



Lucid, awesome piece of writing little warrior!

Fin, your weather sounds like mine. Leaves have begun falling and some are just now starting to turn into various hues of red, orange and yellow. By next month there will a glorious display of Autumn colors. Sounds like you had a wonderful time with your friends and their daughter yesterday. I'm great with kids too, probably because I'm a big kid myself.

Gordi, loved your story entry! This is so much fun with a group of us all interacting and telling a tale! Very happy here!!!!

Hiya Timely Dave! Lucky for you the weather is warming up. Must have been terribly cold for you. You know with that avatar and all. Yeah I know, I can't help myself, always have to make comments about it. LOL!

Gawd, hope I'm caught up in here now.

I will be going out for a late lunch with my Sister later. I hope everyone is having a lovely day.

Good evening Shedland,
Well, I've had a pretty full day...
Working in the morning, then finishing off making some overhead storage units for my van conversion in the afternoon, making dinner, then tonight running the BBQ for our Bat & Moth night!
(Teaching members of the public about Bats & Moths (and wildlife in general) over a free burger or roll & sausage (cooked by yours truly!) then a wild-walk through the woods, listening to the Bat-Detectors!)

Now enjoying a rather large Irish Whiskey.... or three!

Anyone around?

G

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

I love bats and moths! I love nature, but I am stuffed, so no food for me. LOL Glad to hear you had such a great day Gordi! I didn't know there was such a thing as a bat detector. How cool is that? Do they pick up on dragons too?

Just came home from being with my Sister. We had a very late lunch/early dinner at an elegant restaurant. WOW! I had a couple of black Russians so...nice and mellow and feeling good.

Dragon goblet! Wow!!!

That was a fascinating video to watch . Thanks for posting !

Hi Sheye! Yes I loved it myself! How are you Hun?

Hello People

Pixies, Elves, Chirps, Ducklings, Trolls, Kilt Bearers, Wolves, Cats and all the other fabulous creatures of the Shed.
I haven't been very social when I am off work, not even in RL. I visit a 76 year old friend and a neighbor other than that I avoid human encounters.
The customers and work drain me. But I do read the posts and wish you all well.
Hugs Weird WIS

It's about time you show up! Pesky, with one hand on her hip and the other with a finger wagging at you says, "Where have you been young lady?" Night tries to explain to the agitated pixie that sometimes people need their space.

Hello oh Wise woman of the Shed lands! Hugs! OMG< love the frog pic!! Soooo cute!
Miss and love you my dear friend!

a reply to: Night Star

Thank You Sweetie. I miss you and every one else too. And the wolf is beautiful.
I miss communicating.
It is so draining being nice all day. Listening to people complain about the weather no matter how it is. Listening to their problems. Putting up with rude crude nasty behavior.
They cut our hours so we have to run three times as fast and Blaa Blaa Blaa.
But I worst of all I am so tired. I don't have the stamina I used to have.

The other day I was visiting with one of the people I do visit, we were just chatting about what nots and suddenly I start sobbing out of the blue.
She understood told me she knew I am stressed. But just crying for no reason tells me I am in a state of mind I need to get out of.
There are just too many things out of place and I don't know how to fix it, I am tired and lonely and......
where is Buttons, I still miss him. Too Much Crap.
Hugs Please.

Hi Sheye! Yes I loved it myself! How are you Hun?

I'm doing fine ... thank you for asking 😁

How are you? I read you had a nice late lunch with your sis ... in a fancy restaurant .. good for you !

a reply to: WalkInSilence

Huge warm hug for you Darlin'! Life can really suck sometimes and I know how much it can drain a person. Take a walk with me out in the forest and we shall sit beneath the trees and watch the leaves as they fall gently to the earth and the faeries dance and...we can have a dragon ride of course. Pick one, any one.
