Tally Ho, forum brethren and sisters,
Iām on hols, but really I just wanted to make that topic because of the delicious pun on my biblical namesake. Jonahā¦Walesā¦?
Fear not! Iāve not been intercepted by a cetacean on the way to Ninevah, Iām just enjoying the sumptuous rural idyll of the principality next door.
So ermā¦ Empires and Puzzles relatedā¦um feel free to share pics of stuff that relaxes you when summons, war matchmaking and loot get you hot under the collar. 
Thatās some 5* yoga 
Enjoy your vacation Jonah, and I hope your birthday is banginā
Recommend this topic for excellent wordplayā¦ and excellent scenery!
No pics of what relaxes me this morning - short on time - but one minor correction.
Technically, Jonah was on his way to Tarshish when he had his unfortunate encounter with the local sea fauna. If heād been on the way to Nineveh, the whale wouldnāt have been an issue, both because heād have been obedient (not in need of correction) and because Israel to Nineveh is a landlocked journey, if my meager knowledge of ancient geography serves me well. Regardless, Iām pleased to know that our present-day Jonah is safely outdoors and above sea level.
Pedantry aside, enjoy your R&R. Looks lovely.
Never!
Pedantry to the fore!!
Also, here are the Bardlings enjoying todayās close encounter with a dolphin pod.
So we actually saw whales in Wales!!
I actually live in a place not so different. Rolling hills and farmland. Ours is broken up by more mature forest, though, so thereās not a good place to get a pic without flying.
Mostly retired, so I donāt have to bother with a long commute. I love my place. 
Have a blast dude! 
Last time I was in Wales is prob 10 years ago hammerfest (metal festival) sepultura was there \m/ was at pontins great days.
A lot of writers use pseudonyms.
Just saying.
Not that Iām confirming I am Stephen King.
But if you send him a birthday card, Iād be ok with that.
@JonahTheBard Happy birthday! enjoy your vacation 
Great sights and that is definitely a good way to chill out from the ever-raging summons and bad luck 
Obviously, as moderators, you and I donāt actually experience bad luck in the game. Itās really just to help the normals 
Iām not sure if I should make a separate happy birthday thread. Iām so boggled right now.
Well, happy birthday!!!
I searched for images and found the following:
Take your pick on which one you prefer.
Ahhh, blessings on your boggled brain, Kaffy.
And I appreciate the herd coming to bring me good cheer.
Wow, I see more than 0 cows on this picture 
If you were here Iād crack out Kirk Douglassā song āwhale of a taleā. Cheers to you on your special day!
