Ahoy polloi (an island for the masses)

[Ludmilla]

Yup. Needed something that would hold all my cold weather gear when it’s not on me.
Lost an expensive pair of earmuffs trying to stuff them in a bag that was too small.
Cheaper to buy bigger bag.

Oh yes. I use to wear bigger bags in winter.
This one is perfect. It looks like a big fat cherry.

The color is the best part!

Mariapia, try this. View attachment 3937995

Thank you, Murphy!

It would be cooler if those storms did not do any damage or harm people. All long-distance trains in G are closed down at the moment. Glad that I do not have to use those today. And now I am safe and sound at home.


Glad, that your weather is getting better. Yay!

I am glad you are home now, Ludmilla.
On French TV they have talked about the situation in Germany.
What about tomorrow's forecast?

 

[Mariapia]

Me too!
Thought I’d take this one out for a whirl since it’s nicer. View attachment 3938016

Beautiful, Murphy!
And the fur charm is perfect too!

Gorgeous color!
I used to have the most marvelous pink backpack made by Arcadia - I wore it till it fell apart - it was perfect. I hardly ever see these [emoji173]️

Pretty bag!!

oh. This could be a sign from the universe

When I try to ignore the universe, it bites me painfully later.

Ah, the color.
Feeling nostalgia for that sparkly red bag you had--which let us all down by flaking & requiring return.

Wheel repair = perfect
Warm coffee & cookie, after cycling beside frozen rivers
Wearing "biking diamond"

(yes, boring patagonia atom sling again--but, hey, helmet is loud yellow!)

Hang in there--Spring arriving soon!

I reminded me of that bag exactly! I really love that sparkly red! I seems nicely made and no apparent bad seams so fingers crossed.

Patagonia is the bomb. One of the best outdoor gear companies around.
Like LC, though, the colors are the exciting part since functional styles don’t change all that much.

All peaceful and quiet. Apart from the Chaos on the railroads. Heading home to the country house, though.

Someone had wayyyy too much coffee, obviously.
Patagonia seems useful - this is the most important point for outdoor adventure stuff.

Hmmm. Trying to decide which bag to take back to the big city. Mabel or Miss Plum. Guess the second one is winning.

 

[Ludmilla]

Had to run some errands at the country town and used one of my country house bags.

Wishing everyone a happy Saturday!
We had snow during the night - so wintery oics might follow.

 

[Mariapia]

A new orange alert in my area, ladies...
Strong winds again.
Looking at a map right now.. Doesn't seem there is a safe place anywhere in the world...
Maybe the Seychelles.

I love your Alexa, Ludmilla.
I think she deserves to go to the big city too.
I hope you are having a peaceful weekend in your country house.
