Simple, Robban is what is most what people call me,
that will say after we have exchanged a few words.
Pretty informal really.
If avatar means the picture up to the left, it is because a lighthouse is........well a lighthouse.
Edit,
Lighthouse for me is the "Word"
passing Ushant lighthouse at night is something to write home about.
A powerful beam sweeping round and lighting up everything in it's path.
I was on a forum a few years ago, Ships nostalgia think it was called, but I stopped being there.
It was ok but it started to awaken a bitterness from within, thinking back on the happy days.
Great people though.
Excellent, I have a friend that I was in school with, who lives out there, he’s not long got married out there he really likes it, I’ve never been, but seeing the Aussies on tv ect they seem to have a good sense of humour, it’s a place I’d like to visit one day .Moved to London when I was 22. Had to crank the accent back so that people could understand me. 'S'orright n'eh' became 'It's quite nice, isn't it'. Been in Australia for 32 years, so now it's 'Bloody rippa, ay?' Although the accent heads back to the valleys after a few beers. My wife still sounds like a Penclawdd cockle woman.
Cool! I recall staying in Inchnadamph Scotland and the area was crawling with geologists.Ophiolites are slices of oceanic crust abducted onto and 'welded' into continental crust by the action of plate tectonics. A focus of my interest in geology was basalt, and most basalts on the planet are generated at the mid-ocean ridges, which thereby create the oceanic crust. So, Ophiolite was a natural choice. (At one time I was active on many forums, being an administrator, resident expert, or moderator on at least six, and on some I used other related petrological user names.)
The avatar is a photograph of a field exposure of an ophiolite (with the traditional geological hammer for scale). I am reasonably sure this is of the small ophiolite wedge exposed in the Girvan area (S.W. Scotland) that I mapped a portion of as part of my undergraduate studies. If so, it was formed when Avalonia (a micro-continent, which included southern Britain and Ireland) collided with Laurentia (Northern Britain, North America) in the Palaeozoic.
I love this thread Bradskii! Great idea.
My name is Brian. In the 80s I drank much beer and perfected my alcoholism. We called it brew-haha because laughter usually ensued. Then someone dubbed me Brihaha since I could obviously drink more and longer than anyone else. I just celebrated 26 years of sobriety from alcohol and one reason why is because I never forget my past. I use the reminders, like my username, to keep me motivated in my sobriety.
The avatar I picked shortly after trump was elected is the cover of a Pink Floyd album, the Division Bell. It seems to perfectly summarize the divisiveness in America today. One of my favorite songs on the album is called Coming Back to Life. It describes hitting rock bottom in one's life but finding the strength to persevere and overcome one's obstacles. I feel like America still has a chance of coming back to life yet.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.Congratulations on the 26 years. Seriously well done. The Division Bell is not one I've listened to. Up to now. It's playing on my 'phones as I type this. Quintissentially Gilmour. What a sound that man makes!
Well I like to change my artist name sometimes, and now it is aerielmoon. Those names seem to come to me out of nowhere, I just think what would describe me the best.
Same way here I wanted name which would represent me as a christian. I was thinking light. So sun was the one because it is greater light than moon (I see moon more like mystery and sunshine more revealing) It is something to do with goal of being like Jesus, loving all people no matter what they do or not do. Being the light of this world.
Always speak the truth.
And I like number 7. My birthday is 7th and it is my ”luckynumber” even im not person who believes in luck so much... 7 means perfection to me. It is something I still try to achieve even I try to let go and be happy for less...
Picture is well, it has many meanings.
I like mysterious pictures very much.
It is picture of me.
Nice picture.
