Ok I didn't have a completely wasted day cleaning the house, because I managed to do this daft little pic for sigrundora to get signed when she galivants off to the States next week, the lucky duck.

She wanted something to reflect Misha's comment a while back about WalMarts being the real Hell, and add an Icelandic flavour by sticking a WalMart on the slopes of the infamous Eyjafjallajökull volcano - and this was the result!

I know, it's daft. Next I need to finish tidying - only the massive heaps of paperwork that litter our living room to tackle now before sis-in-law arrives tomorrow, and after that, I can make a start on those Character Number fills from yesterday, which will be much more fun. No rest for the terminally lazy, hey?

I love it sooooo much. You have no idea!

Even my aunt, who knows nothing of SPN apart from what I told her to explain the picture, loved it and thought it was amazing.

There's a reason why she is my favourite aunt :D

Am going tomorrow to have both pics printed out at a print shop - eeeeee!

Misha will be amused!
I'm looking forward to your fills! Those prompts sound great :)

When I was in Iceland I spent the whole week practicing how to say that volcano's name, but now - I've forgotten it, I just sound like I'm hacking up hairballs!

Love the boys completely overlooking the, um, 'bleedin' obvious'!

Great job :)

Ta my dear, I see you can get t shirts explaining how to pronounce it...

Eyyah-fyahdlah-juh-kuhdl

something like that.....there's a LOT of post-aspirations in Icelandic :D (and the ll is sort of like a Welsh Ll)

It sounds beautiful when the Icelandic people say it, I just make it sound like I've got a smoker's cough!

Can I just say you have a fascinating and amazing country which I love with a passion - I've visited Iceland five times and fully intend to make it many more!

Sigrun is a tourist guide now, so when I visit I'm going to make use of her expertise!
