"I have a new little friend on Blue- well- actually three. I have not introduced them to Higgins yet. " Miss Ayla smiled- it was one of those days- busy yes- over busy- lots of people wanting to talk- great- and still feeling lonely. It doesn't happen too often- but it happens.
In this mood Miss Ayla stumbled about this cute little fellow in a texture store- and fell in love- instantly.
So now he and two of his friends are having a good home on Blue now and Miss Ayla smiles- for a while at least.
Saturdays are strange days anyway- yes- time off work- but chores at home- and the weekly shop. Miss Ayla giggles- not that the grocery shopping is a great pleasure- certainly not where I live but it occurs to me that I am in SL far too much- I keep seeing avatars. Today e.g.- I am sure it was Slowly who directed a small and rather timid looking little fellow with a huge- and I mean hugely piled up shopping trolley through the aisles- and she kept piling on more and more stuff. It cost me 15 minutes- just watching- holding my breath expecting the load to fall off- or the trolley collapse- or the little guy- but it went all well- as far as I could see. - And Percy I see every weekend - but instead of Kim he drags a bunch of young kids behind him and looks rather stressed- so that somehow disturbs my picture. Well- I am a bit worried- the boundaries are obviously getting slightly blurry- mmmmh- I might try a TP to the office on Monday morning.

Those of you who know me for a while will also know that I have my spiritual moments.
I am certainly not what could be called religious- but I am certainly a believer.
here in Inverness I have found a genuine community of lovely people who attend their church service at the little High Church every Sunday.
Pastor Laura (exactly Lauraclaire Benelli) delivers an extraordinary experience- it is not some fake service- it is real in lines with the High Church of Scotland. The sermons she reads every Sunday never fail to touch me and inspire me to think.
I have chatted with Laura for a long time yesterday and I do not really want to go into the details- but Laura is one genuine and warm hearted person who has the right background to do this job- and she is doing it so well.
So if ever you have an event that would benefit from a spiritual blessing- this is a place I would recommend- also bearing in mind that Brody Castle is right next to the Church- what a setting for a wedding!

As for Miss Ayla- I will do what I usually do on a Sunday and retire to my platform- until it is time to walk the RL dog and then go to church- at 10 am SL time. Join me if you like:-)

Hi Honey- I am home...

.....well- I am back. Miss Ayla and Higgins have moved on- for better or worse? I don't know. For better financially- yes- no more drama- yes- but heck I miss you all. I miss the ponies- I miss Phoenix- I miss the parties. I miss my strolls through the vineyards and my Sunday mornings on Battle's yacht- oh well. My friends are still welcome on Blue- a lot more quiet- but a great environment for a chat. And I am sure that once Miss Ayla has got all her stuff well placed on the marketplace she will also start cooking again- so watch this space. I will organize events on a regular basis- the next one coming up on 1 July (Pisa's and my rez day) with a Pink Floyd Show at Xaara (yes- where it all started) You will receive the invitations shortly- and you know me- I will keep sending them. The weekend after will be the opening of my mainstore with a party- and hopefully DJ Josef- who has not confirmed yet- Josef!!!!!!!!!!!!! End of July will promise some fun- a hunt in the Duchy- I will feed you bit by bit with hints and details- get your period gear out- saddle up and search for the lost artefacts and the villain who took them. In between- it has still to be confirmed I am planning a concert in the lovely scottish Highlands, where I have a store and a little farm that is open to the public and is a lovely place to sit and watch the sun come up or going down- amazing people and amzing potential and a wonderful atmosphere- oh- and I have heard some brilliant bands over there. Thane Brody lets out his Castle for events- and what a castle that is- so again- watch this space! Nuff said- see you all around very soon. Ayla x
