I’d be delighted to shift some collections out of my list and into yours! I’ll start sending when I catch up over here. And I’m blushing at this end as I don’t consider myself one of the glitterati of the community. I just like to vent and am not afraid to ask questions or make comments. I’m currently reshaping my FL, in part, looking for compatible players and removing a few that just don’t fit with the way I play this game. Don’t be shy to ask anyone. You’re a visible presence on the board - as much a part of the wiki as anyone else! - and all anyone can do is say no, and hopefully in a polite fashion. I’m pretty sticky about keeping my FL to 100 active players, so I’ve been known to ask if I could wait list someone until I have a spot open. It usually doesn’t take long, as I’ll start looking to see if anyone isn’t playing any more and we seem to lose a few with each event.

As for charging rooms, the only ones I really care that people charge are the crafters. I have a bunch of magesteriums that I want to use, and I like to use as little time as possible creating stones to make butterflies and cotton balls. Aside from those, I like to have the pricier rooms hit by my Jokers, for obvious reasons. 😹😹 But as I play a lot of Clothing Store, Dressing Room and other low cost premium rooms during events, I’ve absolutely no objection to having those charged. It means I can play longer before I need to take a trip through time! I tend to charge crafters, TB and HL, then 5 more difficult rooms: the Mine, Candy World, The Villa, Memory Square and the Mirror Room. If there’s anywhere you’d like to make substitutions, I’ve recently managed to incorporate changes for a few other players and would happily do so for you too! I’m running at about a 75% success rate for remembering, but I figure that’s better than they were getting from me before! 😹😹😹 I’m actually getting better as the days go by and it gets reinforced in my little blonde brain.

I’m so glad you enjoyed your trip! It must have been great to see your brother and his family!! England and Scotland are definitely on the list of places we want to see but I suspect it will be a few more years before we get there. Hubby retired - though I’m trying to talk him into making that semi-retired - and I’m off on disability. I’m currently trying to go back to work part-time and preferably work from home. It would be beneficial to both me and my employer since I’m the senior person in my department and have a lot of knowledge that hadn’t been passed on. They changed the way they trained people not long after I started and I’m the only one trained in a lot of things in my office. My boss is all for it, it’s the ones above her that are the problem. I guess we’ll see! Any way, I want to pay down the house before we go globe-trotting, and as we were both on our second-time-around when we met, we only bought the house in 2001 and have a couple of years to go.

I love your RL desk guardian! She looks much like my Einstein, so named for being a real smarty paws! But as we live in the country and seem to acquire kitties by default, whenever someone takes theirs for a ride, we’ve got them in all shapes, sizes and colours. Our barns - and the food and water in them - seem to attract them like little magnets. But we do have six lucky little ones that live in the house too, and various others that like to visit us inside, before they go back out to play.
