Can we rather talk about the Lego Palkia figure O_o
- I've got a Dialga too, but I haven't finished putting it together
  
  Iş that a actual Lego set?
Beautiful! Playing mandolin is a weird experience for me as a guitar player. Like... I know how this all works, it looks familiar, but it's upside down and everything is very close together. It's a lovely sound though.
- I'm a guitarist too! The upside down thing is crazy, but I'm not having too much trouble adapting to it. I'm really loving that there are tons of viable barre shapes, working out melody is going to be nuts though lol
  
  am i dumb? whats upside down about a mandolin?
Tell me more about Victoria and her forrests...
- They are being illegally logged and I'm super pissed about it, I grew up in them. The postcards are part of a campaign to help save them by writing to the state minister for the environment, I've been finding it hard to do because it's such an emotional thing for me...
  
  Ouch. I'm so sorry. Thank you for organizing to protect them! Courage.
The lego palkia lol
The first thing I played when I bought mine was Losing My Religion - so much fun to jam out to some REM on these beautiful lutes. Looks like you’ve got yourself one sexy sounding songmaker right there!
- Thankyou! I adore it, it's probably my most beautiful instrument, though to be fair my keyboard is really giving it a run for it's money
  
  Please tell me it meows
What kind of music do you play? Big fan of a few bands with prominent mandolin, so curious :)
- Working my way towards folk punk, and a bit of regular folk here and there
  
  Neato :3
