YES WE ARE :nod:
Here are Dan and Max rehearsing a fencing scene of a Shakespeare's play: http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sport012.gif

And this one is me training my legs for the swim to Finland, where there's a cup of tea waiting for my arrival: http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sport033.gif

That's what happens when I begin talking. I can say things that were never heard before :lol:

:brow: Is that a proposal? What if I don't want to swim back, uh? Do you have enough tea for a longer-than-expected stay? :brow: ...... :lol:

Peppi Pitkättosu may be the strongest girl of the world, but I myself won't lag behind. Stalking a Valkyrie for a cup of tea... yummy, yummy... see me swimming your way!: http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sport038.gif

Actually last weekend I wasn't doing either, I was doing some real work :D

I've got tea, but I don't have enough space for a long-term-visitor. You'd have to find other lodgings or try camping on the field :D

If you're really going to swim here, don't wait for too long, because winter is on it's way and the Gulf of Finland will be frozen... :lol: (I bet the water is already rather chilling, the temperature already drops below zero at night and ruska is at its most beautiful - one can't deny it's been autumn for quite some time already).

Gosh, I will have to hurry my training! :lol:
Let's see... I understand "ruska" is the time in autumn when tree leaves turn colourful. Is that correct? Any literal meaning?

Sadly, no. It really is NOT me. (It is the me of my dreams) In reality I am short, fat and ugly.

Never mind, you have a great sense of humour and that is all that counts in forum chat. :ladysman:

Yup :) I think "ruska" comes from the word "ruskea" (brown), though of course it's more yellow, orange and red :p

There are lots of pines and fir trees here, so in the time of ruska there's always beautiful greens mixed with all the yellows, reds and oranges.

:( And I was going to ask for a clone wrapped in a big bow on my birthday!
You know, though, maybe they've got his face in a pillow because he isn't that pretty! Anyway, Bibliophile, you're brilliant and beauty fades
