    I used to learn so much by watching that lol I was obsessed with watching it and still am actually~

    @Kari yeah basically dinos in shark form lol they are interesting lil guys

    @Animedragon I think there's probably a lot, especially ones we don't even know about since so much of the ocean is unexplored and new creatures are found all the time~ That's why I'm most interested in deep-sea creatures over other ones. 

    @SasukeI always feel like I sound insane to say so, but I believe there could be, since yeah it's so unexplored and there's creatures we have no idea about it yet there.

    @Jellal LOL oh c'mon they wanna hug ;-;

    @Ayame You'd give it a hug then right? XD 

    I don't think it sounds crazy given how little we know about what's down there.

  2. I'm not so sure I want to know what else we haven't found down there lol especially with that thing looking like it does. If it's been there that long unchanged you really could argue the case that there might be marine dinosaurs down there that we don't know about. I guess you could more or less say goblin sharks are dinosaurs though couldn't you?

    They can interact with Rubiks cubes, they can solve those L-shaped plastic puzzles though, they can open childproof locks/jars, navigate mazes, and escape locked aquariums pretty easily. There's a lot of videos on YT of them solving puzzles and stuff, it's pretty cool.

    Probably goblin sharks tomorrow if I have time tomorrow, might be a Saturday project.

    I've got to go check out some of those videos, I want to see the octopuses doing cool things lol

  4. You have always taken great pictures and these are no exception. The sunset looks really beautiful. Glad you both enjoyed yourself.

    That's why I'm always a bit upset when I see people only capturing an event through a phone lense instead of experiencing it in the moment. Of course I understand wanting to capture the memory, but if you're recording the entire memory through a phone you haven't actually experienced the moment. I always take a few pictures or a short video and then experience the rest in real time because there's nothing  like the real thing. Maybe I have an older mindset than most people our age, but I feel as though our entire generation lives life through a phone instead of really living. Alright I'm done thanks for coming to my Ted talk 🤣

    No you aren't alone with that feeling Jase. I have similar feelings when I see people recording everything tbh. It's great to capture the moment to share it with others and remember it but it does seem like people do it so much they don't experience it the way they should.

    I liked those two pictures as well. The whole place is remarkably well preserved especially when you consider that after the dissolution most of the monastic buildings became stone quarries and were taken apart and used in other buildings.  

    It does seem so. The floor and the ceiling for instance look really good both for how old they are and when you figure they probably weren't trying to preserve it well if it was being used as a storage room.

    This blog entry has generated quite a bit of interest, so by way of a 'thank you' here are four bonus pictures. These are some inside photos so I hope you'll find them interesting.

    Part of the display in no.2 furnace. Originally there would have been a wine glass shape lining between the base and the opening of the chimney but this had been cut away for replacement but the works closed before the replacement was built.

    Some of the cottages were furnished as they would have been at different times, and I forgot toe make a note of the dates!. Close inspection of my full size photos I would place this one at 1900s possibly around 1914. The vases are about right for that period and the photo on the mantelpiece is of soldiers in first world war style uniforms.

    Iron-9.thumb.jpg.49ecba075e4de6eed9adf4066b986502.jpg

    I'm much more confident to date this one at 1940s as the newspaper headline reads "Hitler Assassinated".

    Iron-10.thumb.jpg.6005dd7c971bb5899007db1e5824eea5.jpg

    Another one I'm confident to date as 1950s as the date on the Playbook Annual is 1954. (I remember some of the things in that room, and I've still got a standard lamp like that in my living room).

    Iron-11.thumb.jpg.bda8037ade85f109981507b6e342d871.jpg

    I hope you enjoyed looking at these bonus photos.

    Those are interesting. I agree with @Sakura it's neat to see the way things would have been set up in the past.
