deems do you reach your island by plane, boat, or bridge, or some combination thereof?
― lxy, Saturday, 22 June 2013 15:35 (ten years ago) link
This week i am mainly cycling over a bridge to it, tho at the end of the week we will be transferring to a smaller island by currach

― mookieproof, Friday, 5 July 2013 00:55 (ten years ago) link
i like the name assateague and also assawoman. i like assawoman a lot more. i keep forgetting to take a picture of where i park when i go to court and pretend it's an island. maybe tomorrow.
― spite n ease (harbl), Friday, 5 July 2013 01:50 (ten years ago) link
i would take a nice piece off the olympic peninsula or perhaps in the san juans.xpost
i have never been to assateague. i would like to go to there but i hear the flies are awful.
― tehresa, Friday, 5 July 2013 02:30 (ten years ago) link
i am on an island. the flies aren't bad but the beds are terrible.

islands are overrated defend/refute

Plus side - waterMinus side - bridges
― estèlauder (p much resigned to deems), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 09:00 (ten years ago) link
overrated only perhaps by the people who live on them.
― lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:27 (ten years ago) link
bridges are grebt
― mookieproof, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:35 (ten years ago) link

a friend of mine once claimed that the lyrics to the national geographic explorer theme were 'i am a lion, i'm going to jump on this gazelle'
thread title scans nicely, so i get that theme in my head whenever i open it
― mookieproof, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:50 (ten years ago) link
not getting that out of my head any time soon <3
― lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 05:01 (ten years ago) link

we are here for two weeks, working remotely. there's a big storm raging at the moment, supposed to continue through the day. so far we haven't lost power. let it hold on for 31 more minutes so jergins can finish the online thing he's doing, then bring the outage!
― lxy, Tuesday, 17 November 2020 19:31 (three years ago) link
<3 islands and storms and lxy and jergins
― estela, Wednesday, 18 November 2020 22:45 (three years ago) link
that sounds delightful.
― toadstool might (tehresa), Friday, 20 November 2020 17:10 (three years ago) link
is the power still out?!?!?

i am on an island
― lxy, Tuesday, 16 February 2021 17:03 (three years ago) link
and for deems and others: it's smaller than your island, closer to inishbiggle than achill. if there were an inishlittle, it'd be like that.
― lxy, Tuesday, 16 February 2021 17:11 (three years ago) link
but no church and no old post office.
― lxy, Tuesday, 16 February 2021 17:12 (three years ago) link
no nothing but some houses
― lxy, Tuesday, 16 February 2021 17:13 (three years ago) link
Theres four things about inishbiggle
The bullet c@lveys originate there
They have an annual matchmaking festival still
The bullsmouth sound between it and achill is, according to my father, the fastest ocean current in europe
They wanted a cablecar but the only place they could thin of to put the other end of it was grandmas garden and grandmas boy kevin picked up the phone to the taoiseach and that was that for cablecars in grandma macs garden and there were ructions for years but we didnt care
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 01:41 (three years ago) link
If one wanted to google maps streetview grandma macs house based on that info one could
We were more often at our nannys house down dookinella anyways tbh
