I'm not on drugs ... I just love Mondays!! :-) ...

.... and the reason for this apparent madness is simple; Mondays mean (after dealing with the fallout from the weekend at the loonie bin, otherwise known as work!!) I get to spend some quality time with amazing people in SecondLife.

Now ... I appreciate to the casual reader that probably still seems like a very bald statement, very suggestive of the diminished mental capacity associated with the ageing process - LoLoLoL :-)  The truth though is that if you met the people I am talking about you'd be counting the days down each week till the next glorious Monday came along.

The focus of all this joy and wonderment is The Pig & Whistle pub; specifically the pub from 1pm - 3pm SLT each Monday. DJ Mericat Ireland (more famously know as - Meri  LoLoL) brings her special Indie/Alternative music choice to the pub in a two hour flawless DJ set that each week amaze me by remaining fresh and genuinely engaging.

Along with the central whirlwind of wonderful fun and energy that is Meri there are a growing number of regular and very special individuals that make up the kaleidoscope ebb and flow of conversations and laughs that Mondays always are: A few of these unique and talented individuals are; Graz Firecaster, Jellie Arrowmint, Paypabak Writer, Josielo Ceriano, Thomas Thaler (special mention here - Thom IS the light that shines for Meri !! Awwww ... he is a great guy!! ), Almo Unplugged, Serotonin Raymaker, Aston Mindes, Lucifer Bates, August Abrahams, Perl Hesse, Boo Latoe, Geert Parx,Cisa Batista, Cosmic Beres, Deatoris Toll, Dirty Adored, Filthy Adored, Dominic Nico, Duggie Rubble, EdenSky Cortes, MaeBee Tomorrow, Mars Gelber, MattG Blackbart, Piet Lundquist, Annie Anton, Sean Bernheim,  Skytour Sittingbull, Sqidly Toxx  and there are lots more who all deserve to be mentioned but hopefully they will forgive this daft, goofy old Brit Bird for not making the list exhaustive ... Pleassseeee!!!

What really stands out against the predictable, pixel perfect backdrop that SL tends to end up being; is the very 3D, interesting & interested 'Full-On' personalities behind the Avatars that all of the Monday night regulars in our pub are. There are rarely evenings when there aren't 2 or more 'Hot Topics' that fire back and forth across in local chat ... often heated but very, very, rarely out of hand. If you have an opinion you can be pretty certain that once voiced you will be challenged to support it and if there are people who share it they will wade in on your side.

I have perhaps suggested that Mondays are somehow a huge melting pot of rabid debaters .... thats would be the wrong picture to give you. What I am trying to say is there aren't many times when something isn't being talked about and all of the substantial 'News Topic Bites ...' will be layered between plenty of ribald laughter and ... I have to be truthful some very 'Adult' themes and moments!! How much fun is that!! LoLoLoL

The best way undoubtedly to understand Mondays at The Pig & Whistle is to come along and be prepared to enjoy, relax, converse and be pulled into this amazing and totally brilliant band of people I am proud and happy to call my friends!!

Yayayayayay!! It's Monday .... It's Meri .... Time to get dressed and P A R T A Y!!!
