Your link to your Behance presence acts most eludicatingly for me. Your previous wizzley on pink-decoated, pink-painted house interiors has many applications -- doll- and kitten-house- and shed-wise, inside and outside -- for me. So I like the ...

The Wreck of the SS Politician
The first paragraph in your first subheading, The Wreck, inspired quite a bit of retroactive fear on my part. This question is unrelated even as the fact of U-boat prowling played its role in the SS Politician tragedy. How close to the British ...

Fables and Fairy Tales; What's the Difference?
Your third difference, Audience, advises us that "We already stated that fables were written for teaching kids." Did that kids-teaching exist on its own or was it accompanied by something adults-teaching? (Or were adults expected to be kids ...

British Country Shows
These questions are somewhat related, because of country wines perhaps prompting thoughts of country teas, and somewhat unrelated, because about teas (absent from this wizzley ;-D). Ragnar Jónasson authored his most recent book, with the ...

Clicking on your link to Artstation caused me to mull something that I've been pondering since first seeing your depiction on your wizzley profile and, again, on your Artstation page. Over here in the United States plaid pants and striped socks ...

The Wreck of the SS Politician
A good idea, Derdriu, but when bottles have been washed up on the shore, as they occasionally are, drinkers find that then deals have leaked and son the drinks are not palatable.

The Wreck of the SS Politician
My comments and my questions attempt to be ordered harmoniously with the sequence in which whatever part of your wizzley inspired them. (For example, I consider a question about Hebrides etymology before one about Eriskay because of the former ...

Changing Your Utility Supplier
The fifth suggestion -- "Use detergents and cleaning solutions that are specifically designed to work at lower temperatures" -- in the last paragraph of your subheading, Using less energy, catches my attention. How might one find out which ...

Perplexus Puzzle Ball 3D Maze
It's interesting that three out of four forms are suitable educational entertainment for children from age 6 years onward. It's somewhat amusing to me that a year more of education and experience is recommended for the Perplexus Twist. That ...

Fables and Fairy Tales; What's the Difference?
It's interesting that the Grimm Brothers looked at fairy tales as educationally entertaining and entertainingly educational. Grimm emphases on moral values puts fairy tales closer to or overlapping with fables. Might there be overlaps in fable ...

Is Genuine Moissanite Natural or Synthetic Gemstone?
Internet sources describe moissanite as naturally occurring in meteorites and upper-mantle rocks. The latter makes it sound like there might be some natural Earthly occurrences. Might we know where all natural moissanite occurs in terms of ...

Is Genuine Moissanite Natural or Synthetic Gemstone?
Online sources generally describe moissanite as eco-friendly because of its lab-grown, non-Earth-mined production. And at the same time, they explain that silicon carbide is an abundant natural but non-eco-friendly, finite, mined, processed ...

British Country Shows
Metal containers can be quite attractive. Is there a certain kind that's favored for these shows? What metal would you suggest for home containers such as I'm contemplating?

The Wreck of the SS Politician
Thank you for the etymology lesson! In fact, I recognized from Icelandic the possibilities of Eriskay as someone's isle since the Icelandic word is ey. So, for example, Videy Island off Reykjavik translates from viður ey as "wooded isle "
