Totally Transported

Giddy up, Granny Ann!

Cruising in a chair-car with Aoife.

Little tractor...

BIG tractor!

Fire engine/knight's steed.

My turn to be the transport. Pulling a seaweed trailer in Tramore.

Cousins and Cookies

I'm back in Ireland for another Space Cousin mini-conference. There is nothing mini about the cookies though!


One day, all the cousins visiting (myself, and Clara, Lowijs, and Gerrit from Planet Netherlands) lined up in a row, in order of Space-Years.

Then we performed the annual inspection of the galactic gift center. Security was tight, you understand, so every bag was opened in turn and carefully investigated.
There were lots of interesting packages to be explained!

I met all my Irish cousins too, but my documentary team slipped up a little on recording our transactions. Hope to fix this soon!

Space Cousins from Beyond the Moon

During my trip in outer space I took the opportunity to establish or reaffirm diplomatic relations with my many Space Cousins.

Ellen and Louise welcomed me to Planet Paris. Highlights of our tete-a-tete are available as "Meeting cousin Leo" on the official record of their realm, the MissFitz blog.

Cousin Sean is an advanced, powerful being, whose complex activities and concerns are for the most part beyond my understanding. Luckily, one of his many powers is an ability to grasp my more primitive Weltanschauung, and adapt accordingly. Here he is using his highly-developed manipulation skills to create towering edifices for me to destroy with a simple poking movement.



With such powers at his disposal, Cousin Sean could face a terrible temptation to declare himself supreme ruler of the universe. Luckily, he is not without rival to act as counterbalance. Cousin Aine the Awesome takes no nonsense from him, creating a tenuous balance of power that prevents any one force from predominating.



With his Sword of Freedom and Bandana of Justice, Cousin Lowijs is ready to defend tranquility and peace as loudly and enthusiastically as is needed.



Cousin Gerrit showed me how to move Moons. Truly the powers of the Aged Ones are incredible.



I conferenced with Cousin Patrick and Cousin Anthony in their watery world. Our conclusion: water is fun!



I met Honorary Cousin Bob (a builder by trade) by telepresence.



Cousin Tom was occasionally exasperated at my lack of understanding of property rights in Space (it turns out to be very simple: everything belongs to him). But he bore no grudges and as I mentioned in a previous post he was very helpful in showing me how to establish a rapport with the Sheep People.



Cousins Clara and Grace let me sit in on a session of the intergalactic council.



And cousin Aoife showed me how to drive a Space Chair. It doesn't go very far or very fast but it sure is fun!
