Tattoo Reunion

I have just returned from our Tattoo reunion meal for the Hjlatabonhoga Fiddlers, our group that performed along with so many amazing other acts from around the world at this year's Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

Being part of the REMT was one of the best, if not the best, experiences of my life. Not just because we were performing to such large and wonderful audiences every night, but also because of the large cast of participants from all over the world who really all became one giant community.

Tonight, my Maori friend, Aterea (Ats) told me that if I was going to blog every day I would need to have had done something interesting that day. Otherwise it wouldn't be properly entertaining to folks... I hope Ats never goes back and reads my old posts.

Wait, Ats has just given me something new, he said that my daily blog should always feature a different moto. He is just thinking of a moto now.

(This is being written in real time)

"Yolo" said Ats.

Cheers Ats.


Tonight's blog is brought to you by the moto:

YOLO
Now, I don't like this saying, perhaps it's because I'm more of a YOLT girl, love you James.

 

 

But I'm going to shed that for one evening to keep true to the moto that I've been presented with tonight. Wait, Ats is going to actually dictate over Messenger phone system what I should write, (so if should ever this blog get deleted or lost, some governments somewhere will have this information recorded in their files).

An example of making the most of our lives while we have them - that sounds more morbid then I mean to, but yea it's still the same. Here is my example from Ats: Making friends, from around the world, and then not being able to see them physically every day, so resorting to social media networks, such as Facebook and Skype and the friendship connection was strong and the desire to see your friends again brought about using these tools that reconnect and reunite us. To catch up and be in one another's company.

 

Ats and I

Yolo. x
