A timeline cleanse, if needed.
It’s Zaph Camden and Groupie Jonsdottir!
We’re happy because we’re from Europe.
And we have each other.
And also watermelon.

Just hope it’s better than the last one…

You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.

Over thirty years gone now…

Watching The Forsytes on 5.
Twenty minutes in and still no sign of Sir Brucie yet.
Maybe he’ll show up later.

If all you get is dark, crescent, first quarter, gibbous, full, disseminating, last quarter and balsamic, repeating every 29½ days, it’s moonscrolling.

I must have given the right answers to the psychological questions (all 66 of them) that they asked me yesterday.

So the next stage will be an interview…

Zaph Camden @zaphcamden.bsky.social · 10h

And it’s now official.
Hoping the next 29 ½ days are good for you all.

Her other colleague was…shocked, which to be frank we expected, but this gal seemed genuinely interested. I hope she does make it to Clover; they were really welcoming to us and I think would be an excellent introduction to naturism if she really wants to try it.

Groupie has been telling one of her work colleagues about our experiences of naturism.
Said colleague (a young woman) has come up to Groupie in a quiet moment and said “I’d really love to try that!”

So Groupie gave her contact details for @cloverspa.bsky.social…

Ready, ready… 📻

Having one of those lovely warm feelings where I think to myself “I’m happy Groupie is in my life”.

The middle moon of autumn begins tomorrow and the weather is very seasonally appropriate, which may be the source of these feelings.
Remembering the time we hired a cabin in the woods of Aviemore…

I’ve just had to do some sort of psychological test thing for work and…I’m mentally exhausted now. 66 questions, but it seemed endless.

And they didn’t even tell me what kind of video game character I would be at the end.

Snuggled up on sofa last night watching The Girlfriend with Groupie.

Zaph: That’s a nice apartment. I could live there.
**pause**
Where do they put the television?
Groupie: Nobody watches television anymore, they tell me.
Zaph: Don’t they? So…what’s this then?

Zaph & Groupie have been enjoying the old classics with a classic spin on things, in the company of the London Symphonic Rock Orchestra.

Why anyone would want the 80s back when the 70s exist is beyond me.

Not so much indecent as insane!

Groupie has been enjoying these repeats.

We’re Scottish (although I think Groupie’s secretly Icelandic)
So you’re just the same as us, then, only with more maple syrup 👍🏻 🇨🇦

You’d probably need to be clothed in the climate we live in 😊

I would say have a day of treating yourself, perhaps in another town where you can imagine packing these feelings somewhere and leaving them there.
It’s the last few days of this moon this weekend which is a good time for endings so if you can do it then, so much the better. 🌙

Happy birthday Corin, who reminds me so much of Groupie. I think the four of us would get on well if we met up.
Preferably in a naturist setting of course 👍
