Athena Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 they will be delivered to you soon Athena. Where are you going to attach your book shelf [a tree maybe?]Do you need screws and tools?x I actually meant a book case, but yes, tools would be good: I'd like: - A screwdriver and some screws - Thicker clothes to protect from the colder weather - Something to make food warmer, ie. a solar powered stove with a pan or fire starting abilities or something like that.

I am still learning but sure I will send it to you right away, any colour preference? yes, bright green please with a bobble on the top [pom-pom.]be sure to send it first class island mail! I ordered an apple pie, but forgot to send for cream, never mind, it will be nice to eat with a cup of coffee. I also ordered another dog, as Claypso is getting lonely and needs another dog to frisk about with. I requested something small like a terrier.

Vimes Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) :D I am glad that you like it! All terrier's are little bundles of trouble running around looking for a crime to commit, so I hope that fudge isn't to much trouble and doesn't give calypso any ideas about a dashing life of crime! lol Edited October 25, 2013 by Vimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd like a medium sized dog, who's mature enough not to leave its business around everywhere, but that'll still want to be pet and played with now and then (but not too often). He/she would be very sweet, just like all the dogs we've had. I'd like: - Lots of vegetable seeds so I can grow my own plants - A watering can - Good soil for the plants to grow in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gardengirl Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 mmmmn! sounds very delicious indeed, I will make some for me and the dogs [and maybe when we return from the island, I will make some at home] thanks for the recipe. Today I wore the bright green bobble hat that you croched for me, so cosy I love it. Me and the dogs romped about the beach, it was a bit windy and some rain for the first time so we had to dash into the tent and make hot chocolate and biscuits. We are staying her until Dec 16th and then returning home for Christmas, so my last posting on here will be 15th Dec!How are things with everyone else on their island, all good?

I think I will stay until after Christmas it isn't to cold here and I don't mind a little bit of rain My cave house is all set up for the winter and me and my cat are going to be snug as a bug in a rug! I just think I need a few more things though like : A tool box (with tools) Warm clothing And a few pots and cook ware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athena Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 It's going well! My boyfriend and I and the dog are snuggled up nicely under our blanket. I'd like to request: - A solarpowered fridge (at night's it'll be cold enough not to need it) - Some Christmas ingredients so I can make some nice food - Some cooking utensils such as sharp knives etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardengirl Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 If only we really DID have this island to escape to now and again eh? I would take very regular holidays there, I know that for a fact. Yes, nights getting colder, so everyone wrap up warm, I need all the ingredients to make a Christmas cake , a small bottle of brandy, a pack of dried pigs ears [for the dogs, good for their teeth!]If you don't know what I mean, you will think this very bizarre!
