Omgwhatisthat!
Unlike other collections of random stolen animal photoes, this blog seems to stick to its theme. Prepare to awwww. And it features marmots!

Internet still on vacation
27.10: Aggy has been exploring. Look, I found a chocolate orange! The carefully sectioned, neatly wrapped kind of treasure my parents’ generation got when they were kids and treats were still a bit of a big thing, the kind that disappeared because it was less cost efficient than stackable KitKat bars. (They sure did have [...]

The World is Unavailable – Please go Play Outside
26.10: Today has been a dull day. Someone has stolen the Internet! [Pause for gasp] I have (seriously) been to the local centre five times today to check e-mail, find plane tickets, pay bills, download lecture notes, check e-mail again, etc, etc… So I’m officially an Internet addict, I gladly admit it. Better than TV [...]

Loch Ness
- breathtaking. It’s “only” a lake, but if you appreciate nature as much as I do, do put it on your list. The Scottish wilderness is much like the Norwegian but rougher, more beaten. The ruin on the shore is a beauty; I will not expand on that as I find myself gauging clichés. We [...]

Care2
I’ve spent tonight browsing Care 2 , a huge resource of tips and thoughts concerning green living, animal welfare and human rights. Not all things there are for me – I consider talking with dolphins more than a bit lofty – but the site is full of gems. Blessings!

Change Chaos
There’s at least seven different UK coins, and it’s very easy to get tricked on the change (luckily the scots seem to be honest, if overly economical at times). I’ll just warn you about the 50 pence: It’s a large octahedral coin, but if someone tries to give you one that’s really abnormally large, over [...]

VegBag
The other day I carried home a bucketful of veggies, some I’d never even seen before. There were green tindarine-like citrus (I thought they were limes, and was quite surprised to find they were orange on the inside), a purple / green leafy thing I’m still not quite sure about -loads. So much I could [...]
