  1. Hahaha, yes, this is a paradox we're just not supposed to notice. Like stockbroker Nigel with his car and mobile phone. xD
  2. This is such pretty item! My final daily reward Pretty Shell Vase Ah, Baelia... what way is THIS gonna go! A much as expected direction, actually. "Wow. That actually has cheered me up. For real this time. Ha! Take that, Mister Krawley!" I have no magic of my own to reward you with, so I'm asking for help from another faerie. Air faerie, come and bestow your blessing upon this Neopian! I cannot abide a debt that is not paid. Her gift with the wind has increased Tatofase's speed! Now my pets get to fight over who wears the robe. Line up, let's see who looks best in it! ..... 504 Gateway Time-out or maybe not!
  3. Thank you *hugs* My mum will do what she can, but it's not at all practical for a bunch of reasons, and with no guarantee of there being anything on the shelves. I just need to suck it up and get myself out there. I am looking at shopping trolleys on ebay right now - I want a cute one :3 - I wonder how long people will be allowed to use them though, after what @Mouseykins said about Canada and re-useable bags. I'm hoping that tomorrow I'll be able to get myself out - i have some filter cartridges at the store to collect - and ask someone in the store about what I need to do to be able to visit the store during those hours set aside for the more vulnerable. I suppose I really should try calling customer service of my regular supermarket and explaining my situation. I'd not be expecting them to be able to do anything about it, but the more people who contact them about this the quicker they'll expand the available deliver slot, or actually give people priority. Maybe when she sees her sis enjoying it it might motivate her to like it more as she'll feel she's missing out? Or get competitive over praise, lol. Is there stuff you can do, maybe practical stuff, where they're learning together/ helping each other, anything like that? I know that might not be realistic because of the age difference.
  4. Got a pretty brush today. Ooh! A really cheap one!
  5. Ray's clearly on strike! The ray is fired at thenameisalice... ... and she doesn't change at all Both of 'em! But... nothing happens. It makes a kind of 'zzrrrppptttt' sound before shutting down completely. The creepy Kookith shoos you away and appears quite angry, so you hightail it out of there before he shoots some miniature laser beam at you or something. Looks like you'll have to come back tomorrow.
  6. I keep wanting to reply to this, but reading through everyone else's big posts fries my brain. But I'm gonna try and say something, though I can't respond to others as I'd like to. All pubs here in the UK closed last night. Boris urged the nation to not go out for one last pint... yep, dream on BoJo; the pub next door to me, and the one over the road, were both heaving. Much hugging going on... People here last night being just as foolish as those moronic spring breakers. In other news... Aw, ain't that sweet. Hope they both sanitised their hands afterwards. Oh wait, there's more! AWWW! Yeah, he seems like a keeper! The supermarkets are on a massive hiring spree whilst everywhere else is closing, and the sewers are getting blocked because of people having to use wipes and tissues and kitchen towel because selfish panic-buyers have taken all the loo roll. This must be the same pretty much globally? Sales of those bidets you fit to your loo must be sky-rocketing, though we (wee? *groan*) in the UK are just SO bidet-phobic that they maybe haven't occured to many people here yet. I have my own problems to overcome here. I have MS; I can't walk very far and I can't carry very much at all because of nerve fatigue and general instability, so have grocery-shopped online and got home delivery for a number of years. I had a shop delivered on Wednesday - that's 3 weeks-worth of food, I can't mentally manage to get a shop together quicker than that - but I can't book a slot for my next shop as there are none. You can book up to 3 weeks in advance and that's what I do, but now... none available. I've been staying up till midnight to try and snag one as the next day becomes available but I clearly don't have a fast enough connection/computer, and LOTS of other people are engaged in the exact same pursuit. It took about 5 seconds for the page to load last night, by the time it had - no slots available. So I'll have no option but to make my way to the closest supermarket and do what I can myself. I'm going to get one of those wheeled shopping bags - I can get it delivered to this particular supermarket - and that will help alleviate some of the obstacles life is throwing at me right now. But will it magically make the stuff I want to buy/need to eat be on the shelves? I have dietary needs because of the MS too This store IS doing this: Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, all our supermarkets will dedicate 8am - 9am to serving elderly, disabled and vulnerable customers, as well as NHS and Social Care workers. They will just need to show us their pass or ID when they visit. I am one of thoese vulnerable people, but I don't have any way to prove this unlike disabled badge-holders. I have this card that says "the bearer of this card is taking Tecfidera" like that's gonna mean a thing to anyone other than some medical professionals. So yeah, fun times ahead for me! I'm fairly confident that things will improve once the supermarkets have more staff though and can dramatically increase the home delivery options - there's a LOT of drivers and vans going begging now with other places closing - and this interim period that's going to make things rather difficult (and risky) for me won't last too long. This situation has at least given me a reprieve from having to go get stabbed at the doctors! I have to have bloods done every 3 months to make sure my meds aren't gonna kill me (not an exaggeration, sadly ) but they've cancelled all non-essential appointments, so my super non-compliant veins don't get to misbehave for a while. Last year I was supposed to switch to new meds, I clearly dropped through the cracks and that never happened. I could have chased it up but I'd have had to take the first tablet at the hospital and then spend 6 HOURS on an ECG machine because this stuff can mess with your heart rate, so I was happy to let things slide. Turns out to have been GREAT that I'm not now on this stuff though, as it's an immunosuppressant and I've have had to self-isolate for 12 weeks, with my current groceries situation I'd have been in big trouble! But what I'm actually doing is no different to what I do any day, sat here on Neopets mostly! I also caved and bought Bloons Tower Defense 6 so that I can continue playing after the death of Flash as I don't see the older games continuing after that. Isolation is no big deal for me though as it's just business as usual. Silver lining? Good job I'm another member of Team Introvert, isn't it.
  7. I feel there is bad blood between Ray and Cap't. Threelegs! He's certainly working hard to un-do Ray's prolonged fit of pique, and I thank you sir! Alice is now Level 41. So, Ray, what you got for me today? ..... *slow hand clap* The ray is fired at thenameisalice... ... and she loses two levels Moving swiftly on! Nothing looks different about Fritter but you can sense something happened. It becomes evident later when it tries to climb a tree but breaks off the branch instead. The ray has increased its level to: 4
  8. I got a nice pretty stamp from Her Madge today. Into my album with you! And a somewhat on-point quest for me today. xD
  9. And I'm selling now, so it's bound to jump up even further xD Nigel the Chia charges 20 NP as commission. He will be able to afford that new Ferrari soon! Summary : You had 2203 NP. After 65 successful transactions, you have 5332183. edit OMG Refresh the page and... KERCHING!
  10. This is lovely! Particularly because it's that Willow Dress that's pretty difficult to use!
  11. Did things right this time! 5 hours before she's back at level 40, let's see what Ray's gonna do today!!! The ray is fired at thenameisalice... ... and she loses 3 movement points!!!! Hmm! Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that.
  12. @Granny63020 hope the shop wiz tip worked ok for you Should we be calling it a hack now? lol. That is...beautiful! I would just never have considered a dark customisation for a Candy pet! and the blue is just perfect for a night-time look, bravo! O...M...G This is not good, double-whammy goin' on here! Let's add some insult to that injury!!! Let us see now... I see rumblings about quest refresh not working... *offers it cookies* ... I should have yelled at it, yeah it's not working. *abandons quest*
  13. The Snowager's gotta have something to sleep on...
  14. -__- That's such a let down, the separates would have been cool to use on their own, but I'm not the least bit surprised that it's as it is. I was expecting you not to be keen because of what you said about the Steampunk Blumaroo xD Haha, same. The wing design is inexplicable, but who cares because it looks great xD
  15. These are pretty nice. I like the tail ... thingy! I wonder if this is another Steampunk brush where it's all one item. The hat/helmet and mask look to be connected. I also wonder what kind of weird spigot this poor guy has embedded in the top of their skull! I like the aviator ourfit a lot. All the individual items are perfectly useable in a non-aviator outfit. Even the cap will work for other looks: scientist; cyclist etc. plus that little bit of wind-blown hair's really cute. :3
  16. Haha, you've more than welcome! It's a v. useful tip that every Neopian deserves to know about. No good for RE quests, but a game-changer for this event or fortune cookies.
  17. Oh man... I have, just now, spotted what I did there, while I was thinking I was being all clever... A G I L I T Y . . . I... just... *sighs* So if he slaps me with another level lose today, I'll feel I kinda deserve it. So here goes! Uh-huh... The ray is fired at thenameisalice... ... and she loses two levels You know, Ray, you could have just been the bigger man and proved me wrong... do we need to have a conversation here about male fragility?
  18. As long as you have the shop wiz open in another tab before you accept a quest you should be able to refresh him by using f5, as many times as you like, and only need that one tab, that's what I do anyway.
  19. Welcome back for reals! Here's hope for behaving computer too! Would it help if I glared at it for you? I'm pretty good at that. I mean a bit of blandishment too, maybe, but mostly glares.
  20. Haha, yep, that'd be my reaction too, poor Aisha! I have remembered to put Alice in for another lot of training, so regaining 2 levels today. I'm comin' for you, Ray! thenameisalice (Level 38) is currently studying Agility Lvl : 38 Str : 18 Def : 5 Mov : 15 Hp : 34 / 26 Time till course finishes : 9 hrs, 59 minutes, 59 seconds
  21. I didn't know they'd been moved, I thought they'd just poofed. They have sunk! The last few days I've done them via the links in the post on here rather than through the Dailies page. I find that a lot easier actually, I have always been in peril of forgetting them since they got moved to the top of the page, and I'll NEVER remember them now they're languishing right down at the bottom as I never go down there. Jumpin' around like grasshoppers they are. xD
  22. He does! That's a great background too. I find it very pleasing how his eyes match his shoes. That's a bit of extra level co-ordinating goin' on there. xD His glow makes him look like he's standing in a shaft of light coming through the dome, doesn't it.
  23. That looks great! I think the big issue with Pet days is you see the pet naked, they tend to look SO much better once customised, the colour's just too much on a plain white background. I have a quite large bias against Polka Dot pets, which is insane because I love polka dots, particularly multi-coloured ones on a white background... it's quite clear that they just need some clothes.
  24. Ooh I do like Ember, yes! She looks like some female superhero or something. I'd def play as her! Also, in typical superhero fashion, her hair looks amazing.
