These can’t be real can they? Santa throwing children in a sack and witches delivering nukes?
Actually my corner of Scotland is weel-kent for freshwater mermaidsNilemaid? Nilemermaid? I did not know there were freshwater species?
There's a fair maid has sat o'the green merse side
Thae ten lang years and mair;
An' every first night o' the new moon
She kames her yellow hair.
An'ay the while she sheds the yellow burning gowd,
Fu' sweet she sings an hie.
Till the fairest bird that woos the green wood
Is charmed wi' her melodie.
But wha e'er listens to that sweet sang,
Or gangs the fair dame te
Ne're hears the sang o' the lark again,
Nor waukens an earthly ee.
('The Mermaid of Galloway, Alan Cunningham)

quote: 'According to the folklore of the Scottish Lowlands, the mermaids were a race of goddesses who had become corrupted with earthly desire. Their beauty was such that the heart of any man who viewed their faces would be filled with unquenchable desire. Their visits to the earth were rare and the subject of many stories but they would select a man of ‘exalted virtue and rare endowments’ and then woo him with their siren like voices...'
so, ye ken noo!

Well the Victorians are known for sending each other some really weird cards by today's standard and so I suppose some folks just kept the tradition going. Historical people, odder than you think

Snowman builders should study the works of the master:
I guess #7 and #9 were wartime propaganda - from opposite sides!

On those Christmas cards, yeah, they all look real to me, two of them propaganda pieces or similar
BRRRRRR ... I will need Moore than just kinis and socks to stay warm where I live, Madi! But thanks for the thought!It seems, it is cold now in Barbaria's homeland.
Barb forget not your kinis and socks, when you go outside!
Of course! But Kinis and socks are a good base.
