Discworld meets SL

Terry Pratchett in Second LifwTerry Pratchett is planning a visit to SL. Odd, I imagined him to be already a resident, with his own sim where he spends hours each day constructing a world to flesh out his literary ones. I would be.

A sim is prepared for him, a South Pacific tropical island, modeled on the island Nation featured in Terry’s new novel, simply titled ‘NATION’, complete with scenes and locations from the book. A treasure hunt will lead users through a series of clues to find virtual books and treasure as well as physical-world prizes. There will also be themed quiz nights, special events and fancy dress competitions.

A lot of residents are into Discworld - there’s a Ning for Discworld followers in SL

In a fun opportunity for Discworld fans across the globe, Terry will appear on The Nation and take part in a live question and answer session with fans, on 9th October. When I get that time in SL, I will post it for you.

Hey Girlfriend

Did I mention I have been in the group ‘Hey Girlfriend’ since it started last year?

Of course it’s changed a lot since since I first joined .. but there’s always the warm estrogen-rich atmosphere when you mingle with a few girlfriends.

I thought I should take some photos of the Hey Girlfriend activities .. here’s the first one, to set the tone, paint the picture so to speak.

I thought I would pop along to a ‘mob’ or a ‘lucky chair’ but ended up in a Hunt instead.

(I have a few pictures to show you .. but that will have to wait till I get some sleep)

No prims for U2

No prims for the U2 concert! That means I am going bald, with bare feet and clothed in a shapeless tunic from neck to knee. Unless we have to leave clothes behind as well.

I should look to see if I have any painted clothes to put on as I don’t fancy going naked. If the worst comes to worst I can always edit myself in Appearance mode and paint black over my private bits.

The Concert will be at Dalymount Park, an historic footy stadium in RL Dublin. Performers to have played at Dalymount include Bob Marley, The Clash and Faith No More and in SL at the end of June the Dalyer will feature U2.
