Toadfish Monastery

No chance for snow this year, I fear!
And my hopes for a Scary Solstice are not that high either.

the sibling below me is going cajoling caroling this year

with my voice they pay up pretty quick!

The sibling below me is going for the world mince pie eating record.

Ewww, those things expand after you've eaten them.
That would probably be followed by a few more world records involving food digestion.

The sibling below me thinks Walmart's "Happy Holidays" should be replaced with "Happy Winter Solstice".

I would prefer to replace Walmart instead.

The sibling below me is forced by imaginary voices to permanently chant
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

nonsense! I do not even speak Welsh!

The sibling below my thinks a perygl is a type of Welsh wolf which explains the signs in Wales that say

Danger
Perygl

Yesh. Wishing I read Welsh, too.

The sibling below me is also prone to monosyllabic responses.

Yes - I - do - OK.

The sibling below me can say the Welsh word

'Gorsafawddacha'idraigodanheddogleddollônpenrhynareurdraethceredigion'

with supreme confidence.

I can say it but I cant spell it

the sibling below me IS welsh

that would be interesting, but no, actually. About as close as I get is Irish.

The sibling below me is thinking about buying one of my prints from dA. 

Thinking is all I could do, unfortunately. (But I am about 1/4 Welsh, from Liberty Hill, Texas--the first Welsh settlement in Texas.)

The sibling below me gets confused about the difference in whales and Wales, and then has Dylan Thomas flashbacks about

Quoteherring gulls heckling down to the harbour where the fishermen spit and prop the morning up and eye the fishy sea smooth to the sea's end as it lulls in blue. Green and gold money, tobacco, tinned salmon, hats with feathers, pots of fish-paste, warmth for the winter-to-be, weave and leap in it rich and slippery in the flash and shapes of fishes through the cold sea-streets. But with blue lazy eyes the fishermen gaze at that milk-mild whispering water with no ruck or ripple as though it blew great guns and serpents and typhooned the town.

Guess who directed Under Milk Wood twice?

I admit my ignorance and ask the sibling below me to answer that question.

The actual response was to have been to
"The sibling below me gets confused about the difference in whales and Wales, and then has Dylan Thomas flashbacks about (Under MilkWood quote.)

A pun a whales and Wales. The answer to who was rhetorical, seeing as how the quote was from memory...

If you've ever been to Swansea market you would understand that quote from Dylan T...it's exactly like that and very smelly!

The sybling below me fancies a nice bucket of Lava Bread...

I am not the Sibyl with her volcanic gas addiction.

The sibling below me had too many leguminoses this morning

Is that what they call it when children put peas up their noses?

The sibling below me prefers lentils.
