Hawaii adventures
I am planning to write a sequence of episodes from my Hawaii trips.
Fortunately I was visiting the Islands a few times, staying even for months.
I returned always with many photos, paintings and variety of interesting experiences.
These writings fits only to the forum of AWW.
To share my adventures I need a loose style in words: like the way you dress when the hawaii wind is kissing your body and soul with no restriction of any kind.

Reminds me of a guest house in Ullapool where the landlady held forth during the evening meal with a constant stream of talk. She had around a dozen guests in four groups at their own tables but woe betide any of them who tried to have a private conversation.
She talked about her labradors. She talked about showing her labradors. She talked about the prizes won by her labradors. She talked about her labradors' diet. She talked about her labradors' careers in advertising, (this was an illustrated talk). She talked about collecting labrador hair. She talked about how to spin labrador hair, accompanied by a demonstration. She talked about how to weave and knit labrador hair. We never got to marketing labrador hair though...
Cheers BlueBird, that made a nice break from the day I'm spending with the Tax Inspectors.

Tax inspectors!
Hello LLLWaz:
That is funny reply you wrote about the labradors!
Guess what? I removed that entry but will edit and replace it. It was too long and boring.
Like the labradors!!!
Of course anything is better than dealing with Tax stuff! You mean: they AUDIT YOU? Here they call it auditing to inspect your books or what ever.
No way I would get involved in that!
Once I did not do it on time: they fined me and cost me lot of money.
I am writing better stuff now! Thanks for your attention. BB

The Tax Inspectors were looking at the organisation I work for, not me. Though since I sign the tax returns it comes down to me anyway. They called it 'a visit' .
After an incident with the stationery I only just got this year's returns done on time - posted on the very last day.
I thought that entry was too short because I didn't get to Hawaii in it! I saw your version of Code Black.
, but don't lose that fresh style of yours, it's got character.
I haven't read the latest Hawaii entries - I'm saving them for working day lunchbreaks when they are a very welcome break from the office and spreadsheets and numbers.

Ah,so!
No matter what: how can a feeling human being become a tax inspector?
I have sympathy for them too. Day after day to shovel papers, or looking on computer screen for numbers which never match the goal?
Have a heart! Like in so many instances: HUMANS CREATING MISERY FOR THEMSELFS AND OTHERS.
Called: going to w*rk.
And be happy
to have a job!!!
The Hawaii stuff got very well mixed up in AWW. I never do REMOVE, edit and replace! Never do it again.
That is how I did the mix up!
Anyway: episodes don't have to connect into a novel.Not by Blue Bird
My idea is that if you read the last couple of words, still get a "kick" out of it.In a good artwork every bit and bit
should be enjoyable,
and when the whole thing holds up in a splended unity: You got a masterpiece!
Don't worry does not happen very often.
But I still don't know what the 3rd L stands for? Losely, Lately +L
Waz ???? curious BB
P.S. I am thinking to tell Shazz that I'd like to fix the Hawaii stuff in the Post. The Starting 3 episodes following in sequence posted to the POST.
Also I can send on E-mail to her from my HI artworks some images for the C. artists to convert into h2g2 acceptable images. They could use some inspiration. Who knows things here anyway?

This tax lady was 'good cop','bad cop' all in one person. One minute human and friendly and chatty. The next minute fixing me with a cold stare and a sharp question . Weird.
I have had so many interruptions during my lunchbreaks I haven't been able to read your Hawaiis. And that has done my temper no good at all .
Hopefully I'll have better luck tomorrow.
Good luck with the images. I'm working on a screen saver slide show for my work computer of a pathetic prisoner looking wistfully out through the bars of his cell. It seemed appropriate.
I'm sure I told about that third 'L' somewhere... off to look.

Found it! http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F74130?thread=478354&latest=1 That's a relief, I was beginning to think I was dreaming. It was my niece who put it on my hat. You wouldn't think a limpet would stay on a hat would you? It did
