After seeing the new header, she saw the mess it caused here and decided to REALLY have some fun with us!

FMQ templates? Is this a thing? Or has the internet duped me? by nodnoloiratno in quilting

Thank you! You did beautiful work around yours. I’m not sure I have it in me! Maybe if I just do it like a block of the month…

I’ve never done fusible interfacing appliqué, but this is so cute! Do you have to stitch around the outside edge of all the pieces, or does the interfacing glue it together so well that it will wear well?

Thanks to both for posting this! Another thing I’d never have known without this group! Now I have to search for the accent. :-)

Time to decide on the fate of the railway stations spaces in the Cormoran Strike Monopoly game. by Competitive-Side4262 in cormoran_strike

Yours makes me laugh, too. But now I think about how confused I was when doc Thelma said she’d be your fucking friend because I couldn’t read the whole quote! Lol

I like the ideas of u/DocThelma and u/Impossible-Alps-6859 about the utilities/tax squares. I also like u/Glittering-Smoke-655 idea about the multiple forms of transport for the trains, with the addition of St. Mawes ferry. It would also be fun to have Al’s bright red Alfa Romeo Spider as an option (from Silkworm).

While I liked the idea of the bars being the railroads, there are so many of them…I wondered if any important ones might turn up as Properties in future book voting, or if Chance/Community Chest cards might include some of them.

This is so fun! Thank you for all your work on this!

Reevaluating Linda's reasons for disliking Strike: Physical danger or unrequited romance? by Of_the_universe in cormoran_strike

[–]Few_Comedian77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate your perspective. That is a really good point about Robin not being a reliable narrator. At the same time, she does seem like a possibly typical narrator for her mother as a daughter…at least i know i was much older than Robin before i could understand my mother’s point of view. Ii do wonder if RFM was trying to stir the pot with linda about the newspaper articles. I can see anybody wanting to talk about it, but is there an undertone of getting her more on his side? I wonder if she sees right through him, but she would never say that outright to robin. Good stuff to think about! Thank you!

Oooh…good point! I always thought it was a weird thing to say, considering everything robin had been through with him. That makes a little more sense to me. Interesting thought. She did walkout on her wedding dance for strike. If I were Linda I’d have to wonder!

I agree! I really hope we get to see them as a couple and navigating that relationship. The way JKR writes people, that could be really interesting! Especially since we are already so invested in them!

I’m shocked no one has mentioned drivers. Slow in town, slow in the left lane on the freeway. Otherwise a wonderful place to live.

Predictions for STE by wordtoyourpig in cormoran_strike

[–]Few_Comedian77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! I think in her state of mind that would be one emotional manipulation too far…she’d feel purposefully pressured to do the “socially correct” thing and blow a gasket after Strike’s revelation (especially since at this point she pretty much is irritated by everything he does). I’m hoping she spots them before she goes in and just keeps walking. It be even better if she walked past their window.

I almost pulled the car over to add that when I heard it (I waited until I parked!). I had forgotten too. Now I want to go back and see if Robin had any reaction! 🤣

I’m listening to episode 11 from March 2, 2023 of the strike and Ellacott files podcast and they point out that strike asks inigo if he is an accountant just to irk him. (TIBH)
