Azal the Daemon from Doctor Who.
He saw Earth and mankind as a failed experiment so wanted to destroy us.
He was about thirty feet tall.a selfie
Otherwise, the spitting image, i'd say.
Except he has hair under his armpits.
It has been a lovely busy day in the Cold Dark Room.
Thanks to you all.
Now my little eyelids are heavy and it is time I allowed them to shut for a while.
Night night Cold Dark Room.
Night night Cold Dark Roommates.
Tomorrow is another day.

Good morning CDR. It's Saturday and I'm hunting out my warm stuff for going to watch the rugby later.
The Barbarians (affectionately known as the Barbars) is a very old and very unusual rugby union club that consists entirely of invited players.
The players are all international level and can be from any nation. They play a small number of matches against international touring sides each year.
Today's match is against South Africa. The Barbars team will undoubtedly include a few South Africans with a chip on their shoulder because they weren't picked for the SA tour.
It makes for excellent matches where nobody has anything to lose. There are usually lots of tries and few penalties
I think a rugby try is probably the equivalent of an American Football touchdown.

Busy day for me too!
Off to get a new tank filter for my mud turtle, followed by lunch w a friend. My #1 sister, who lives down near Ed/ZEROPILOT, is flying into town for a wedding this weekend. She and her hubby wanted to go to a really nice restaurant in New Orleans so me, my hubby, my #2 sister, niece and sister-in-law are all meeting up for a night of fine dining! The restaurant is far too expensive for us to typically go to, but #1 Sister and her hubby are quite well off and usually pick up the tab.

I've been studying this morn, and have a lesson in an hour, so just popped in to say hi.
Enjoy the game, they're usually fun.
Barbarian comes from the word "Berber" the original indigenous people of Morocco and parts of Algeria, who still constitute 50% of the people here (the others being mostly Arab) . They are thought to be of Caucasian origin, so many of them are red haired, blue eyed and sometimes blond. They were a particularly warlike race until quite recently and gave the Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs and even the French and Spanish, during the colonization period, good boshing on many an occasion.Hence the idea they were Barbarians They have their own language, which is sort of a heiroglyphic one with different sized circles, triangles etc. which has recently been accepted as an official language here and is taught at the relevant schools. Street signs and shop names etc. are now being posted in Arabic and Berber. Some still want independence from the Arabs.
Good afternoon, Lyn.Its Wales v Australia today too - couldn't get tickets for it but may have them for the Argie match next week.

Since i have my teaching hat on, for those that don't know ,Australis is Latin for Southern so Australia just means "land of the South."
Argentum was Latin for silver so Argentina is "land of Silver."
Wales was probably Latin for sheep.
Morning, Bea!Busy day for me too!

Hmm Adam always changing your profile pic I see. Can't decide on one?
Final score 31-31. Fair result. Lots of tries and no penalties.
Everyone very relaxed and happy
It will be a different story next Friday for England v Scotland football in the same stadium. Fingers crossed it will be peaceful. We won't be at that.
Not so good for Wales. They lost 8-32 to Australia
