Trala’s Tent

[HashGirl]

Omg!

OMFG!

My daughter in law just dropped off my grandson, and she’s chatting away about my son finishing at 2100, and how he will be late so she will have birthday cake with the kids tonight, and I’m thinking whose birthday? So I say what birthday? Thinking it’s the cat or something, and oh. my. fucking. god! It’s hers!

Today is the 11th of October. She is 31. And her mother in law forgot.

My grandson and I are going to hit the shops…

It was our niece's 31st birthday yesterday, too. Sounds like you gave her a good birthday despite not remembering it.

My favourite book as a child was Tigers in the Cellar by Carol Fenner and I still have it:

 

[Trala]

Treasure! I didn't know about this story until now. I Googled and I know I would have loved it. My favourite children's book was Enid Blighton's Folk Of The Faraway Tree.

It’s not that the story is even great, coz it’s not really. It’s just the memory. I had to find a specific back, because we would look at the characters once finished.

It’s super old, it says © 1952-1962.

I bought it online about 5 years ago and I’ve never regretted it.

I will kindle your book and read it

I hope you are enjoying your break. Yesterday sounded fun shopping at the plaza (is that the same as a mall?) and the birthday dinner, nice.

It is. I bought her a Birkenstock voucher and some little bits and pieces. My man and I are currently on operation backyard. I am just hoping it looks as good as my imagination says it will look. Atm it literally looks like my biggest mistake everrrrrr lol.

for memories of your mom

We had a very troubled and toxic relationship but despite all that, I loved her. I get scared sometimes I am her. I look like her. Even I see it. I fight internally not to become her. It’s my struggle and my struggle is real lol.

Mmmmmm that feeling when you get to pop the jar first

Don’t keep it in the fridge (only using mine as a light as I’m lazy) Will turn to a solid block that will cut your toast up

Oh yum, I’ll have marmite, said no Australian ever.

And only serial killers keep vegemite in the fridge bruv.

Was pretty well read in our house too.

Funnily enough I went to buy a copy for friends who had a young son who loved bedtime stories.

As the series of books is quite a long read (which was part of its magic) I really did think it would be a great gift.

Imagine my surprise when I found out its been totally re-edited.

They Dr Seuss*d it, for modern times.

Fair dinkum. Part of the fun was holding the giggles in when having it read, and there was more actual violence in our household than ever appeared in print.

Out of protest I didnt buy it. More "think of the children" nonsense. I want to read what the artist intended to say.

Imagine covering David up....

Its that sort of nonsense that makes me wonder if we will ever get out of prohibition on canna, sheltering the children, tomorrows citizens and leaders, doesnt make them better adults imo.

I’ll have a look at the book today.

I do think the covering David up is a huge reach tho. If you want to be outraged Karen’s can find it for you.

There will defs be a prohibition in canna. There already is. And to touch on your think of the children comment. Children today are far from sheltered. Most primary aged children have seen things they can’t unsee. Violence, unrealistic body imagery, self centredness, validation through likes, porn and have watched strangers, men live online, without parental knowledge. Predators. Looking for kids. I just watched a documentary on Tuesday. Mirror Mirror it was called. These are hard times. Different times. I’m not sure how we as a community fix it, but there’s definitely a problem.

Deev, I just popped into Tra's thread because I was looking for something to smile at. Fuck the prudes really. I am so tired of censorship on this level. It is tragic and sick making... like no longer allowed to use the word "moist", or listen to Baby It's Cold Outside... What can we laugh about then? Where's our Tra? She can usually beam a ray of light into a space

Look I don’t really have a problem with people who are what I consider to be prudes. You do you and you let me do me. There’s enough room for everybody. I think respecting the differences and diversity is the key. But the bottom line is just because I’m offended, or outraged by something doesn’t mean I’m right.

I often see many equate the feelings of offence or outrage with being right. And that’s where trouble is born. Well I think it is. We look for validation and encourage a group think, then decide “we” must be right coz there’s 163 of us who think the same thing. And it’s all good till rocks start being thrown and people get hurt just for having a different view lol.

And gear change! Omg that cunt song!

Lolled!

If you haven’t seen it:-

You’re welcome!

The tunnel to her guts line! Omg! Lolllll

I’m pretty sure it’s an Aussie comedian called Kevin Bloody Wilson.

I know some peeps pearl clutch at the word cunt, but for me it’s just a different way to spell vagina. I refuse to have a term which was used to describe our ladyparts as a word I can’t say. It’s just a swear word, and as an Aussie I pride myself on using swear words with gusto and often. And there’s nothing wrong with the word moist! Particularly when discussing lady gardens! Moister than an oyster is one of my favourite states to be in

Every swear word in every part of the world in every culture relates to front or back bottoms or what comes out of them. Anthropological fact

Reported.

That is a blatant © crime!

Good rhyming tho

 

[Carmen Ray]

I will kindle your book and read it

I think it might disappoint if it has been altered to make it politically correct, it will have lost a lot of its charm. That's why I got so hot under the collar earlier. There was a whole series of Faraway Tree stories, and another series was the Magical Wishing Chair, with some of the same characters.

I’m pretty sure it’s an Aussie comedian called Kevin Bloody Wilson.

It most certainly is

 

[Trala]

Kk 1,2,3 back to me.

What am I even doing perpetually?

It’s an absolute headfuck!

Me: look at me everybody! I am the self proclaimed Queen of Perpetual
Also Me: OMG they all need the flower room and I have no room!

So my flower room is full. My lights allow 3 plants. 4 at a stretch.

Back and front view or vs if you make everything about back bottoms and front bottoms like @JoetheChro does lolllll

Now the Veg Tent. I had to push poor Simba outside as my focus is the plant I’m growing with Carcass.

Veg tent with my Zkittles vs without her. I don’t want to fat shame her but… the bitch is phat. Lol

And poor Simba Shiskaberry lives outside in the wild.

Oh and @ReservoirDog that tape is the best suggestion for a clumsy grower like me. Thanks again.

Went to pull a leaf off a supercropped branch and somehow splayed her like a chatty heretic from the Middle Ages on torture Tuesday. I am so annoying! Lol.

I don’t know what to do. My flower girls are weeks away. I just don’t know. I should never have struck the Wedding Cake. But I’m so about second chances. Any advice is appreciated.

 

[JoetheChro]

Skittles looks banging Tra

Well I’ll give them a miss then.

Disappointment is such a waste of a smile.

Lol.

Fucking hilarious!

And you need to add your Off Topic to your sig, well I think you do. It’s amazing. Mine is just full of shit I can’t post here. It makes no sense without context. It’s just a link route. Yours is a work of art and needs to be seen.

 

[Trala]

Skittles looks banging Tra

She’s been an absolute motherfucker!

I have worked so hard to wrangle shape out of her.

Have you seen our comparative grow? Me and C Legend are growing together. He gave me the seed.

Yes, already over there really good idea, both doing amazing work

It looks like it is going well, even if you are having space challenges. I bet Simba is very happy in the wild by the way. Are you worrying about flipping your Zkittles? Have you charted approximate date ranges for harvest and flip?

Ok, thanks for the suggestion I will do that. Thank you for saying such nice things about it!

"chatty heretic" lmfao!

Sorry I missed this HG

Happy birthday to your niece. And I made it up to her

Makes me so happy you have things from your childhood.

 

[Trala]

She is stretching. I think my natural light hours are around 13.

Are you worrying about flipping your Zkittles? Have you charted approximate date ranges for harvest and flip?

Yeah I am. I have no real room.

One of my flower harvest advisers says:-

Greg is day 55 of 75
June is day 40 of 70
Liz is day 23 of 60

He also can’t tell the difference between a teaspoon and a tablespoon, so I’m not sure what to think tbh. But if we did trust him, earliest time there’s room is 3 weeks. No way Liv has 3 weeks of Veg left. She will be a monster!

Ok, thanks for the suggestion I will do that. Thank you for saying such nice things about it!

"chatty heretic" lmfao!

Your art/photography work is proper good.

I think you should ask Rob if you can link your online shops in there. I think many in here would love to support your growing business.

I love proactive resourceful people. And you really are both. Xo

Kevin bloody Wilson, a legend.
My favorite is 'The kid (he swears a little bit)'
A close second is 'Santa Claus'.

 

[Nine Toed Hippie]

Hey Miss T!!!
Plants are looking awesome as usual. I would like to use an Australian name for my long winded Malawi Super Haze sumtin sumthin from Ace. Ha! Jeez! That tester bud off my black widow is to blame. But I am looking for a cool name. And just to rest your nerves,,,, a full flowering room is a good thing. Buy more jars!! Peace my Amiga.

NTH

Pardon my fucktardness, dunno why that empty quote is up there.

Oi, so How’s life with Bone-Saw Tra-la? Hmmm, that might require a Yank accent to sound proper. Ah well, I hope this finds you well. I feel you on the landscaping jitters, if that is indeed whats troubling you.

I redid my front yard this spring and around the time I had the tree cut down, all of the grass ripped up and 10 yards of earth dumped in my drive, well, every time I laughed - I was half a second from crying. True story, I hadda I stop thinking about funny things for a week. Tell ya tho, now, I couldn't be happier, or more proud, and all of the amazing change that its brought me this summer. Wow, it was really amazing. New people, experiences, perspectives on life, and vegetables like you would not believe. Last but not least a major bump up in physical health/stamina. So, FUCK curb appeal! And realtors too, if they don't like it! Someday I'm going to mail them all cards with lotsa misleading, bright shiny graphics and photos, that reads:

"Hello! We've recently sold a home in your neighbourhood, and thought you might be interested in how much your property would sell for if you bulldozed your house and set fire to the pile!"

Oh, also, Nurse Trala, I thought I'd check in with you, see what you think of my splint work. All the best to your and yer fellah.
