I'd like to use this pace for miscellaneous matters that don't fit elsewhere
Thanks

Alistair Croix will look regal and authoritative indeed atop the highest peak on the iceberg. The great walrus of wisdom! I imagine it will increase the tone of informed insight that will guide the viewer both into this experimental film and in a profound critique of it afterwards.
Ouch! I think I just got hit by a clam shell! He must be up there already!
Hee hee and hugs,

What ho - Alistair Croix is in fine form. He just knocked out a dronecam - oops! We'll have to do that scene again! ["Yippee!" LRC grins, pouncing on the another dromecam's remote controller. "More practice for me!"]
LRC is trying to control 4 dronecams - how many takes can we afford?
Wonder if Alister Croix has a fire pit & a large frypan up there? He surely must, for otherwise, he'll be allowing the shucked clams to slide down to the penguins emassing in a great swirling horde at the edges of the iceberg.
The penguins call this meal, 'Clam Yum Sliders' - & if any remain after they've had their fill, they may soon appear on the Aurora Restaurant' appetisers menu, maybe in a drink or two as well.
& Alistair Croix lobs another clam shell into the crowd.
No, it's not the Australian Open, but what does Alister Croix know or care? Raffa may be out there somewhere, looking for a training partner.... we can only dream!

Yes, a film involving multiple drone cams controlled by a cat will earn us even more kudos in the world of experimental theatre! No one will ever be able to emulate this unique, creative masterpiece.
Perhaps Raffa may want to come to the iceberg and be part of our groundbreaking film? As he approaches retirement it could be a new career opportunity.
I am noticing each time a kiwi attempts to stand up they are clunked on the head by a clam shell and fall back down again. It's as if Croix is playing bowls and knocking down skittles. I think he might be trying to get rid of pesky penguins but keeps hitting a kiwi instead.
It is certainly getting chaotic here on the iceberg!

What a waste of clam shells - the kiwis don't need to be clunked on their heads to fall over. Standing unassisted for them is an Olympic feat rarely achieved.
I look forward to rebranding all of Raffa's clothes with the Kiwis on the Beach logo, which depicts a group of three rising from a wave & 'flying' over EfFe, then falling into the 'sand' (snow atop the iceberg), each clutching a bottle in their beaks.
Don't you love these new animated logos Professor Porpoise has invented & developed, (patent pending)? I love them so much I could n't wait for the patent to be granted.
Alistair Croix is getting one of his own - which puffs out real non-carcenogenic scented fog... no, no smoke at all. He is sitting in his armchair, with a golden-orange hue indicating the nearby fireplace lighting one side of his distinguished proile, while the other has the soft glow of an old-fashioned incandescent bulb in a lamp beside him. He does have a pipe - but remember it's his smoking jacket that emits plumes of the scented fog, so look to that instead of the pipe. That's just for show.
Oh, & I have been working with professor Porpoise to repurpose some clam shells, once we enlarge them, they would be perfect racket heads for Raffa's new venture. Another marketing bit of brilliance!
The Wake the Walrus band is on pontoons this year, in an attempt to avoid being struck by clam shells - but I'm a little concerned they may 'rock'n'roll a little too much out there & end up in the drink ... no, that's not how it's supposed to go...but I'm not sure all the members have realised ... the Pesky Penguin Singers won't mind, being expert swimmers, who in all honesty, may be entirely responsible for any pontoons that go under.
Is it too lat to stop them?

Happy New Year MK, Croix and all the myriad beings on the iceberg!!!
Wow, a smoking jacket that emits plumes of scented fog! I think what we have created is a multisensory art installation, with the walrus installed as a central feature.
I think the Pesky Penguins are indeed unstoppable MK, even with Croix throwing clam shells at them. If EfFe is out on one of the pontoons and decides to do one of her spectacular twirls, loses balance and falls in the water, we may all experience a mini tsunami, though Croix may be ok high up there on the highest point of the iceberg.

Dear mischief-makers (and any one else looking in)~
Now you know I would not be so unkind as to throw clam shells at inebriated kiwis,mind you pesky penguins and the 'Wake the Walrus' band are another matter!
You u are right about the wing-baked chair in front of the fire and Alistair Criox about to read the latest script of Monsterpiece Theater-"The Good, The Bad and the Unmentionable":)

How do you 'unmention' the 'unmentionable' without having mentioned them in the first place?
Ah, 'throwing band members' & 'throwing penguins', not exactly like boomerangs, are they?
Not sure about anyone else, but I always land on my feet, whether on ice, EfFe, or anyone's head, I'll land very well-balanced on my feet.
"Wheeeeee! This is fun! Do it again, Croix!"
...
"Wheeeeee!" (even in the rain we've had early this morning & again later, then at lunchtime, & again now ... but it does feel so much cooler today).

Dear MK~
"but I always land on my feet"
Have you tried tying a slice of buttered toast (butter side up) to you back?

MK, I think Croix may have discovered the one thing that may prevent a cat landing on their feet. I therefore suggest if you see him approaching you with some buttered toast and adhesive, run. Of course, Professor Porpoise may have some way of countering Murphy’s Law by enabling you to enter a different dimension at will, thus escaping the buttered toast phenomenon.
EfFe’s attempts at twirling and acrobatics are not quite as refined as yours, but she gets full marks for glam and effort. She does send penguins running for cover when pirouetting. The kiwis can’t do much except roll a little bit and groan.
It’s been a lovely beginning to the New Year on the iceberg, even with all the mayhem!
Hugs,
