"Un gran repaso contando en primera persona la guerra civil en el País Vasco al estar siempre en el frente de batalla, haciendo especial hincapié en el detalle que ofrece sobre los bombardeos de Durango y de Gernika."

"2.5 stars
SPOILER🛑 but you should probably take the title of the book very literally, because she really has never and will never know men or KNOW ANYTHING AND NEITHER WILL WE. I am actually so mad. I wish I knew this had one of those annoying open end" Read more of this review » |

“I first heard Personville called Poisonville by a red-haired mucker named Hickey Dewey in the Big Ship in Butte. He also called his shirt a shoit. I didn't think anything of what he had done to the city's name. Later I heard men who could manage their r's give it the same pronunciation. I still didn't see anything in it but the meaningless sort of humor that used to make richardsnary the thieves' word for dictionary. A few years later I went to Personville and learned better.”

“The Outlaws loved cellars. … There was a door under the stairs. They opened it. There were steps. Yes, most certainly cellars. Very cautiously the little procession crept down. Glorious cellars, enormous cellars, heavenly vistas of cellars opening out of each other. They explored blissfully for some time for sheer love of exploration.”

I'm not really going to marry an oligarch.I plan to become either a muse to a penniless poet, a model for a starving artist, or a hopeless love figure for a young misunderstood mathematical genius. I'm not that fussy, but all should live in a garret and die young. That's because I plan to move on and marry a philosopher, who must be no younger than sixty, as one can't be too young to be taken seriously as a philosopher. Also, he must be much older than me, by at least thirty years. After he dies I'll wear black for a while, then figure something else out.
You're a fine figure of a man.But the ladies in your life shouldn't worry, as I plan to use my supermodel looks to marry an oligarch, for as David A. Riley pointed out, I'd be too much high maintenance for most men.
I don't know if it's for me to give advice, but I think you should return to the Vault when you feel ready. It's a rather gentle environment and if one makes a mistake (as we all do) there I think one can just forget about it - everyone else will - and move on (certainly with no need to delete a thread/post)
I'll send an email address soon.I won't go back to the Vault, as I make too many mistakes, and clog it up with nonsense posts.
I'm sure if I get the urge to post I can find somewhere more suitable.
I got sent an invite to an online role-playing game from a friend, so I'll try that to pass some of my spare time.
Oh, and if you can work out a way to add attachments or are prepared to send an email address I will, as promised, send over A Ghost Story for Christmas
Ha, thank you Princess, that describes the lifestyle of some years of my youth. This pic was by one of my daughters on the occasion of a haircut. It predates lockdown though. If taken today it would be less lean and rather more stressed. Trust you are well and that having a wee break from the forum is agreeing with you
