Mumsnet Yurt

[M2T]

Hi guys.... step in, grab a yak skin, straw filled cushion and roll a herbal cig.

I'm baking some 'herbal' muffins in the stove..... relaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax and breath whilst I get them out.

That should have read 'small slice of your life' and not the garbled nonsense I wrote

Switzerland

Feel better from your cold soon, I have had two sick kids the last 4 days. We are on the mend now though

Have been bathing in hay flowers in the steam baths. The moss covered rocks have alittle snow on them and the mist curls around breath and bodies.

Have been massaging Tigermoth in Almond Oil and manuka to heal his cold and help his breathing - he loves the baths

Where do you live FMF?

Am coming in too Paps those steam baths sound just the thing as it is cold and damp here.

Have lit candles in the yurt tonight two scented sorts a Jo Malone lime and grapefruit one and a cinamon and orange one so we should all bask in the lovely scents. I have also lit hundreds of floating harry potter type candles and the yurt roof is reflecting the twinkling lights like stars.

Before I resume my normal MN attired name:

I sprinkle butterfly dust upon FMF and her wishes and wave my magick wand for babes and to capture divine moments around and upon her life

Today I will walk up to into the hills of Bong land. The Eucalyptus trees are shedding their skin and the woodlin elves will harvest the bark to make their magical flutes.

I will help them and sing with the elves and trees as the bark makes whistling sounds in decent.

The elves have promised me a flute and tonite I will bring tune and lyric to the Yurt.

I am on the coast today Paps! I am speaking with mermaids and swimming with the beloved dolphins. The sea is sparkling blue calm and clear and the mermaids sing to me of new opportunities and lands to discover.

Sunflower man is having a day off and gathering tayberries to make jam for some scones I will be baking this afternoon.

Lovely scones - I have never tried tayberries and not sure that I have heard about them before.

In RL I visualised that baby paps needed some more buddies to play with close by et viola when we went to the supermarket a woman and her dd were there. Have meet her before once and the girls are only a month age difference. So we are meeting up on Friday

In the Yurt today I simply wish to sit in the sunshine at the door and play my magical flute. The birds come from the forest to sing with me and your golden deer glitterfairy also watches and grazes upon sweet grass.

It is good to watch the world go by and be still within and around all its happens

now papillon why can't i bump into someone like you in the supermarket.

lol Ruty - we shall install a market here in Bong land, one providing diverse fare and fodder, Mingling amongst the magical creatures and spiritual travellers are with lots of babes in slings and lovely mummies for gassbagging and lollygagging

OOooooh with home made cheeses from alpine pastures and fresh huge tomatoes which you only see abroad in markets. Spices in huge jars of many colours and a wonderful coffee shop which sells all manner of drinks and cakes and extras.

A play park for the children with clowns and pet animals to stroke. A huge fountain that they can play in and multicoloured lollies which dont rot their teeth!

Ok relax deep breath that was exciting!

all sounds lovely. Isn't that what switzerland is actually like tho?

The market of Bong land is Switzerland deluxe - it is all worlds as One World. Today I sit again in the sunshine watching the market come to life again after its busy night.... Last night by the lake - if you click one back you will see the magical beings of CH!

Do you sing Ruty... you could entertain us with delightful celtic christian tunes

Glitterfairy the tomatoes are fab... they remind me of an Italian friends garden... their tomatoes taste divine. My father took some home to NZ so I hope to visit him one summer year and eat pasta with fresh tomato and tomato and mozerella salad.. mmmmm YUMMY

Can I treat you to coffee and cake and join you in the market place Papillon? I need to gird my loins for a posh wedding this weekend - I'm a bit nervous as they are old friends (before children) who we have not seen for several years and I haven't stretched my social wings among child-free adults for a rather long time. (am tring to visualise myself as a social butterfly, flitting effortlessly between the other sparkling guests, making wonderful witty conversation and spreading feelings of warmth. Unfortunately, I shall probably be overcome with nerves, spill something unpleasant down my posh frock, drink too much and spend the day hiding in a corner

Ah well paps I could do that but i don't think the elves would like it. I think I'll stick to Old English Folk Songs and Cornish Seafaring Rounds.

Popping into the Yurt to say hello to everyone
Hope everyone is well and enjoying the new year.
I spent a few days in hospital with a migraine that lasted 9 days with frequent blackouts !
Thankfully nothing nasty as suspected ( brain tumour) and on lots of nasty drugs to keep it from striking again. I couldn't breastfeed for 48 hours which was awful- and was under immense pressure to give it up so I could have stronger drugs. I havn't and its just a dull headache now.

In Bongland to ease my stress Im in the hotpools surrounded by pine forests and crisp cold midnight air.....ahhhhh Much better
xx

FullMoonFiend I will gladly sttroll with you in the market. We can keep an eye out for glitterfairy who I think has a stall today of lovely frocks and a nail bar where the fairies can paint, dust and glitter our toes. I hope your party this weekend goes well. I reckon the slightly mysterious aura of slight conversation is highly alluring in social settings. As a re-entry into social life, watching is highly useful and helps keep the lips from babbling too much when you busy observing everyones chatter and body language! Less is more and all that. Hey look there is Glitter, wow her stall looks beautiful and seems to have a rose quartz tint to its air!

Oh Ruty and I was thinking to get my elvish flute out and all! Still abit of Old English and Cornish sounds fab and I would happily whistle a melody to accompany your rousings. I will get large pints of spiced apple wine and we can sway like lanterns I hope I don´t fall in the lake!

(((Mummyvicky))) darling thats is yuck... I hope the hot pools help. Do they have any ideas as to what is causing the headaches?

You had better visit the wizard who has a stall for cranial release, bodywork and energy realignment.

Take care and good to hear from you xx

Ah paps I have bought my oboe out for the occasion and am playing haunting melodies for you all.

My stall with frocks was a great success and I have nearly sold out. These frocks look good on any figure and have a slimming effect for the bits you love to hate. THey also come in the wearers favourite colour de jour which changes depending on who is looking.

I am siping water melon juice and eating a ripe mango I am enjoying a hot pool soak and admiring everyones nails with fairy touches.

yes agree with the mysterious aura. Less is definitely more. Going to have a hot bath now and dream of hot pools at twilight in bong land with the scent of honeysuckle on the breeze...

After all that beautiful music i feel in the mood for some Cornish legends. I have a wee book by Robert Hunt and on the cover are mermaids with crowns of shells, who look out from their inlet cove, across the waters to the land of Bong.

Here is a wee story this

Glitterfairy I am just loving this frock from your stall... it is all my favourite shades of green with many textures. It has a wonderful aroma of moss and thyme with a hint of granny smith apple. I swear it hums softly to me.

Paps you look lovely in it. Mine is a sea blue and swirls about my legs with the breeze. THe lake is calm tonight and I am admiring the stones in the bottom. I am dreaming of happy times which will come I know and smiling at the clouds of water nymphs playing the hot pools.

Paps the totem bear is hibernating in her carpet inside after several doseful days of sunlight in the market. The golden yellow light is being stored deep within as reservoir while the winter months continue.

My wonderful frock hangs above me and hums reassuring tones of sustenance. Its moss fragrance creates memories of waterfalls and soft dew. The thyme brings good breath and the apple scent of cleansing and revitilisation.

How was the party FMF... or is it today !?

My golden stag needs awakening so am claling him in the moonlit glade and waiting for a response. The moon shimmers and glides over the glassy surface of the lake whilst I wait and watch the firefairies dance in the glade like moving stars.

Ah here he comes lit by the moon silver tonight not gold and proud. Walking in a stately way and allowing me to stroke his silken fur. He beckons to me and takes me to the lake where I see a boat await which I step into. It takes me to the island in the middle of the lake where a huge bed of spun gossamer and silky warmth beckons and I can get real deep and dreamless sleep at last.

feeling tired and abit out of the loop atm glitterfairy... guess i give this place too much energy sometimes. Off to have a sleep in my cashmere while baby paps goes into the forest with friends to visit the animals. xx
