Smashing. Makes me want to make my delayed trip out there as soon as possible.

I almost moved to Cardiff for the sole reason of learning Welsh. I loved hearing the trains come in and hearing the announcer speak in Welsh.

I guess because I live in the Castro SF, my exposure to men in skirts and feminine attire has been so great that I no longer think it odd. I would actually think it weirder for me to wear a dress (see profile pic) than most of my male pals.
I do believe that the smock as I remember it was a fully covering garment, usually worn with a big floppy hat. I think that alot of fashion in the 60's was based on this odd farmers attire.
I guess it's all about context and type of dress, no one would look good in one of those awful flowery dresses, but I have seen guys look super hot in little skirts and tight t-shirts.

I don't think that men in dresses is perverse at all. Look at the romans, and hell farmers in the UK used to wear smocks up until the beginning of this century. I think that Lank looked rather pretty!!

True, true. I was actually being a wee bit snarky. I learnt from the completions of other players. I have been inspired to step it up a notch after discussing possible completions with a lot of you folks. Not because I want to impress or get points, but because it genuinely gives me joy to do these things and I get all excited and goofy when I think of something fabulous to do.

When completing a task, following the spirit rather than the lettre of the law is far more interesting. If Zer0gee had just slept in the store, then I would have been bored, but she took it to a greater level. The extremely appropriate story, the time and dedication and the fact that daddy bear is wearing a wig moustache makes it a really nicely done task.

We don't have to have a consensus to have an opinion about the quality or sphlankness of a task. We can do what we want.

Scienceguru, have you appointed yourself a task critic? I am not being snarky, but that seems to be the role that you have been playing.

Fantastic completion. Now I want to be a B.Hii fan.

Ha, I think that I now have an SF0 crush on you after seeing you wield a hammer to crush your boob-tube.

I love this task completion if I had a television I would use it to frame the amazing view from my house.

I was rather tired when I did the write up. Please forgive the writing, but I don't want to redo it too much.
