after spending the last month wandering around this ship sleeping in odd corridors, under tables and the strange rooms that I have found, I think I finally have found one to call my berth. What from the outside looked like a perfectly normal door, from the inside looks like a flap.
The room is conical, about 25´ across. A soft white light diffuses down from the hole in the peak of the roof, about 30´ above. Directly below this hole are the ashes of a long dead fire in a circular fireplace about 4´ across. Around the fireplace is a lounging area, lined with sumptous furs, I can see a polar bear head, Lion feet and snark whiskers all amongst the comfy. Outside of this area is more useful furniture. A big iron bath with crows feet, bookcases, cupboards and a table. The previous occupant must have left in a hurry as the table is still laid, and scummy grey water is still in the bath. Otherwise everything is covered in dust.
Mmmm, i think that I can do something with this..

Suppose the first things to do is to go and order a barrel of smiley - ale to make the dusting tolerable (thirsty work, dusting). I´ll get these furs down to the launderette, empty the bath, and light a fire to get rid of the damp and stale smells..

Perhaps we could trade opinions on the subjective nature of reality over smiley - tea...

smiley - tea? Did i hear the word smiley - tea? Please, I'd love some, especially if its Pennyroyal smiley - tea!!!

Ahh! Plato!! How are you this beautiful day? I realize I've been scarce around here for the last several days. I'm hiding from Jess. She's on the warpath. Something about several bottles of Talisker Scotch Whiskey disappearing from her private stores. Although, I would know nothing about that. . . smiley - bigeyes
