In The Nude Beach, teenagers performing appendectomies on their friends has become a popular schoolyard prank.

Blimey. That's no fun way to play doctor.

Tomorrow : Scottish Parliament Election. The Scotsman says SNP is set to win. According to TV channel Euronews, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon might tell the man with looney hair that there'll be another referendum.
I can't imagine the UK without Scotland. An united kingdom must be made of united subjects !
But que sera, sera. Whatever will be, will be.

The problem is England, not Scotland, not Northern Ireland. England is dis-uniting the United Kingdom. Brexit and English nationalism at all costs - **** the rest of us, n’est-ce pas? Just my tuppence worth, sweetie. Must be time for a nice cup of tea.

You're right. As usual. There must be some cat DNA in you.
*puts the kettle on*
Scotland breaking from the UK would be the appropriate response. The only option on the table. I just hope Scots restore their monarchy...
And speaking of monarchy, mark my words. It won't be the end of it. If Scotland leaves the UK, Australia will leave the Commonwealth. Republicanism is strong there.
Much change is yet to come. The writing's on the wall.

There is much change to come. I try to ignore it but my dear partner puts on the Channel 4 News. My wee brain retreats to Tommy’s and I have a nice cup of tea and a chat with Prof van Stápël and Pope Frankie.

If you are a cat, or like to be in the company of cats, come along to Tommy’s today.

Happy Thursday !!!

From : Dancing Dragons
To : Friends of Dorothy's Dear Partner, Esq.

"Dear Sir,

While respecting your laudable interest both in RL local and world affairs, please note that some people don't care about it so much. We can't all be Christiane Amanpour or Fareed Zakaria.
Nor do all of us read in-depth analysis articles in Le Monde Diplomatique. Some people, yours truly included, hardly watch or read the news. News are fleeting. It's their nature. Major newspapers HQs chose location in Fleet St. for a reason.
The world changes. So what ? Once you realise change is the only constant thing in life and in the world at large, substance becomes more important than shape.
In your world, that is.

But that doesn't mean we're ignorant, ill-informed or tunnel-visioned, here in Nudist Dreamland. Quite au contraire. There's Tommy TV, Tommy Uni (aka La Fac), there's Prof. van Stápël and Pope Frankie for matters of faith, aristocratic skarks, we learn a lot from cats, there's mastery in Firework Arts, the best Céline Dion impersonator ever, cookbooks from our chef and, most important, we have the Book of Answers.
We have fun, friends, joie de vivre...must I say more ?

Please accept an autographed copy of
Down and Out in Biarritz and Milan : How to Survive With 10,000 Euros a Month, by Lady Laura de Luna, as a gift.

Yours respectfully,

DD"

Dancing Dragons, if I were to show him this he would roll his eyes but he would also laugh.

It is Friday. Please keep calm and you will enjoy the day.

What happens? Rufus, Gay Parrot competes with the fireworks at Yannsborg Citadel as he blasts out numbers by Céline Dion. Wild dancing on the dunes.

But the real highlight this Friday is Lady Laura’s Girls Night Out with Sal. We don’t know anything more about that because it is none of our business.

Happy Friday !!! Get to Tommy’s NOW !!!

In New tsarland, new treatments are rejected if they cannot be explained using only one-syllable words.

So we won't have Sal with us tonight.
Good on ya, girl. Don't worry, we'll hold the fort.

Hope you and Lady Laura have a good time. If you feel like you're being watched, don't worry. That will be Willy following her. He's very protective. Just ignore him.
About the Book of Answers : no peeking while you're away. We got the message.

*goes to Gay Parrot's dressing room, faithfully and diligently helps him with his fan mail*

That’s a welcome milk and honey for Rujero, barman cutie, por favor, and a belated welcoming m & h for New tsarland. We are glad to have you with us.

Dancing Dragons wrote:*goes to Gay Parrot's dressing room, faithfully and diligently helps him with his fan mail*

Thank you, sweetie. We are proud of our parrot.

He has attained global stardom - better at blasting out Céline numbers than Céline herself. Sadly, his Sénégalais folk ditties remain undiscovered, and as you may remember the reviews for Gay Parrot the Opera peaked at one star. But he’s adored as the anti-hero whose headstrong insouciance saved us from annihilation in Reservoir Cats (Quentin Tarantino, 2008).

In Carefree Island, preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance.

Indeed. And for that heartbreaking performance he won a Tommy and an Oscar (a special award celebrating Oscar Wilde).
His dressing room is filled with memorabilia and photos. Parrot in India sharing a funny cigarette with George Harrison; picketing with UK miners against the Thatcher cabinet in the 80s; voting against the independence of Québéc in '95; with the Dalai Lama; with First Lady Michelle Obama; vacationing with Cristiano Ronaldo in Corfu; with Greta Thunberg; clearing minefields in Eastern Sudan; fundraising for schools for poor kittens; as a judge on the famous TV contest for aspiring populist politicians, Strictly Come Parroting.
Gay Parrot is the best !

Thank you, Dancing Dragons. His holiday in Corfu with Cristiano had the tongues-a-waggin. It was the cover story in lHola! that month.

In Nudist Dreamland’s real life story, which was made up by somebody here, Gay Parrot found a bomb ticking under the Founding Day picnic table, picked it up with his beak (don’t ask, sweetie) and dropped it safely out to sea where it didn’t kill any grannies or kiddy winks. It did upset Sir Nigel Shark’s indigestion, however, something for which Parrot has never been forgiven.

Hope you learned your lesson, Sir Nigel... el pez muere por la boca.
Time to let bygones be bygones, don't you think ?

In Grave raven, nihilistic thrill-seekers claim that suicide by roller coaster is the ultimate life experience.

Sunday night .. ALREADY !!! I have a big long list of things to do tomorrow.. *boo hoo*.. That’s a large milk and honey for everyone in the joint, please barman cutie. Bye bye weekend.

G'day, Nudist Dreamlanders
Monday it is. I like Mondays. A new week brings new possibilities. A fresh start for old hopes. No two weeks are the same, each is a breath of fresh air.
And this is why I would never succeed as motivational speaker. Not even the cats at Tommy's are taking me seriously. Why would they ? They have a self-confidence of their own.

4 o’clock or in work-speak 16:00. Some of the things on the long list have been ticked off, so I surely deserve a cup of tea, pas vrai?

After which I’ll move everything left over from my Monday list to my Tuesday list. Free as a bird, I’ll fly off to Tommy’s bar where I can do my more fun job.

You do, luv. Some Earl Grey, perhaps ?
Which tea is your cup of tea ?
Fancy one myself. Did more than my job's worth today. But my heart is full. I feel grateful for my service.

Back to Tommy's. Señorito Garcia-Garcia caught me on the right mood, high on Apple and Cinnamon infusion. Really. There's this Portuguese footballer called André André. I was ready for guys with funny names.
"I dare you" he said. "Tu eres preciosa. Te quiero tanto, cariño. Da me una oportunidad. Uno target shooting competición. Winner takes all. I will...hum...voucher avec toi."

"It's coucher avec toi, barbarian. Grr ! You're pathetic. First of all I don't like your cut of your jib. You look like El Chapo. Let me tell you one thing, colonial. The Portuguese were the first Europeans in Japan, in 1543. We introduced rifles there.
Ultimately, we were responsible for Pearl Harbour. As it were. I guess.
So...show me what you got !"
(To be honest, I had mixed feelings. I'm Latin, but not Latina ; I'm a girl, but, well, you know, a bit different on the plumbing side, if you get my drift. Still, he noticed me for what I am and I blushed and felt both furious and pleased....)

To be continued

I'm kind of scared. We're about to shoot pineapples at Spot's Spot, William Tell style.
I don't wanna shoot any doggie my mistake.
I'm terrified, actually. Too late to call Dame Brenda Shark. She could take a harpoon like a whale on a famous American novel and still take the ship down. She would tell me what to do.

Señorito Garcia-Garcia's air gun don't impress me.
Oh yeah ? I got a pistol crossbow. And lessons from the best : the one and only Willy, Royal Belgian Marine Corps. French Foreign Legion.
MI6 Agent. Heavy Brussels accent. Shaken, not slurred.
