Weekly News Round-Up #69: 21/09/2014

G'day everyone and welcome to this week's edition of WNR! I feel like it's been a relatively quiet week for us, especially with trips and whatnots going on. I think I only saw ANT once this week... Oh well, let's recount some of the week's funny moments :)

On a quiet afternoon, when ConscienceSarah, MusicalMark and Master were the only people in the study room, a rather interesting conversation arose. At the time, Sharah was supposed to be reading, Mark was meant to be writing a statement and Master was going to go to town. However, none of that really happened. It started with a piece of paper, which Mark made into a paper boat. Meanwhile Sharah put the wrapper of the straw, from her drink, on her fingers. It's a little challenging to describe, but the point is that a load of unusual stuff was going on. In the end, Mark had written the word 'plan', which also became the name of the paper boat, and Sharah and Master agreed that they'd sail it on a nearby lake. Here's the 'after' photo:

What a delightful afternoon that was ;p

Later on in the week, Wicks and Master ventured into town with the objective of purchasing the latest edition of 'The Wicked and the Divine' in mind. After hearing about Master's previous encounter at the comic book shop, where she showed up on the day the comic was released and asked for it straight out of the box it was posted in, Wicks was daring Master to re-enact the whole scenario when they noticed that WicDiv wasn't on its usual shelf. After a little bit of general browsing, Master eventually went for the jugular, so to speak, and enquired about it. Unfortunately, due to a delay in the postage process, it would be hitting the stands the following week.

After making a mental note to go back to the comic book shop next week, the duo decided to grab a drink at good ol' Localville's Baker's Oven. There were plenty of options but, of course, they gravitated towards the Moshi Monsters branded 'Magic Water'. Wicks went for the 'Strawberry & Raspberry Rainbow' whilst Master had 'Blackcurrant Burst'. Even though the drinks looked like water to the naked eye, Wicks' tasted like yogurt and Master's was similar to a typical blackcurrant Starburst. Here's a pic of the drink in question:
Magic Water
Make what you will of that. At the unexpected flavours of this so-called 'Magic Water', Wicks played with the idea of the possibility of going back to the Middle Ages, bottling up 'Magic Water' in quirky perfume bottles and selling them as remedies or potions. After further contemplation, Wicks realised that the main flaw in the plan would be the possibility of being condemned a witch.

At the end of the week, Cap, ConscienceSarah and Wicks were waiting for the lunch queue to go down a little. Wicks announced that she would go scouting, however Sharah heard 'skelting'. They proceeded to look for a definition of the word and decided it would equate to something like 'pulling a Helen Skelton'...!? We went on to remember when she kayaked down the Amazon River, eventually the topic shifted to a rather grim situation which Sharah appeared to be thoroughly disgusted by. What a wonderful way to end the week.

Well, until next week, have a good one ;p
