The sunrise outside the window right now :notworthy: Observe:

(I had to take a pic, it's my first of the year and when late spring/summer rolls around I love to be up early to see it)

And can I be really predictable and say the dawn chorus as well...?

I had to get birds in somehow :wink:

I would like to put worms in as well (the helpful and friendly Earthworm that is, not the various other kinds of bizarre parasites that burrow into your brain if you go too near a river in Equatorial regions :eek: :urff: )... but I guess that might not meet with everyone's approval...

Poor little wums think nobody likes them! :cry:

@ James & SINsister - a sweatlodge ceremony really has to be experienced to be appreciated. It's a beautiful thing.
I think I better stop now as I'm starting to sound like a dodgy hippy.
I'll be urging you all to dance naked in the moonlight next!

I've had the pleasure of partaking in several real Indian sweat lodges. Don't underestimate the spiritual aspect and don't think it's anything like a sauna (although the mechanical principle is the same : pouring water over hot rocks). I've found sweat lodges to be far more intense than saunas, not in the least because you're in the dark in a small space with several people, so there's even less breathable air. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone of the hippie persuasion, because they have a tendency to twist and distort the real meaning of a Inipi (Lakota for Sweat Lodge) Ceremony and thus won't understand its real nature. But yeah, a sweat lodge in this world would be great to have, preferrably with a shaman who knows how to do it properly. So the next addition to the world is AMERICAN INDIANS! Sans the concentration camps, sorry, reservations of course...

*Yelp* Not for me, then, thanks! I'm claustrophobic - I'd have a panic attack in there, sadly... :(

I'll second that !

High quality sushi and sashimi, especially. With all the gorgeous land and water this new world will have we're bound to have a some fantastic fresh ingredients.

For those that love their food cooked (what a crazy idea :twisted: ) then I can think of loads of things to make them happy too. A nice Miso soup for one !

This world requires Pizza. Not the frozen crap, but fresh, just-made, hot pizza, straight out of the oven, eaten in the open air (preferably at evening time as it's starting to cool down slightly and the sunlight is turning golden) with nice cold beer.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Make that a proper stone oven heated up to the exact right temperature with wood in it and I'm in 8)
