His mother would snap if she found out that Gilbert even had another iron in the oven. Trina Dalton, the girl that helped him and his mother at the bakery since his father had died. Trina was even younger than Breanna, but things clearly weren't one-sided! Trina would even sometimes call Gilbert to go downtown, clubbing.

Lazurowe Bitowo - początki

Wznawiam publikowanie historii z mojego Lazurowego Bitowa czyli losów rodzin z Bitowa i Lazurowej Promenady. Mam tak dużo materiału, że powoli sama się we wszystkim gubię, więc będę starała się dodawać wpisy turami, a nie rodzinami, tak jak było wcześniej. Mam nadzieję, że będzie to dużo bardziej przejrzyste ;)

Rozpoczynamy od samego początku...

Rodzina Żakiet, czyli dobrze nam znany Gerwazy oraz jego matka, Dagmara.

Opis Gerwazego oraz jego osobowość zupełnie nie pasują mi do jego aspiracji romansowania: ,,Uroczy gość. Umie cieszyć się życiem i czerpie z niego garściami."

Dla mnie Gerwazy jest zagubionym simem, żyjącym według oczekiwań rodziców. Szuka tej jedynej. Miał romans z wieloma simkami, w tym z Aleksandrą Gwiazdką oraz Florencją Della Rosą. Owocem jednorazowej przygody z Florencją został Syrakuzy. Po długich rozmowach, zarówno Gerwazy, jak i Florencja zgodnie stwierdzili, że zostaną przyjaciółmi, a Syrakuzy będzie miał kontakt z ojcem.

Gerwazemu od samego początku podobała się nowa pracownica jego rodzinnej piekarni, pochodząca z Wyspy Wanmami, Trina Dalton. Ta jednak zupełnie nie była nim zainteresowana, nie zwracała uwagi na zaloty Gerwazego. Irytował ją swoim zachowaniem. Ten był jednak nieustępliwy i po czasie, Trina zgodziła się na randkę, a później kolejną i kolejną...i tak już zostało. Zostali parą!

Kiedy okazało się, że Trina jest w ciąży, Gerwazy poczuł się przytłoczony i spotkał się z jedną ze swoich byłych kochanek...szybko jednak zdał sobie sprawę ze swoich czynów i zerwał kontakty.

Trina Dalton to bardzo ambitna simka, która wyrwała się z małej wyspy, w poszukiwaniu lepszego życia. Chciała zostać prawniczką, pomagać innym simom. Udzielała się również w polityce. Jednak jej największą pasją oraz rzeczą, dzięki której stała się znana była seria książek o tematyce prawniczej, których akcja działa się na wyspie, z której pochodziła!

Niedługo później na świecie pojawił się syn Gerwazego i Triny - Ksawery, który dostał imię po ojcu Gerwazego. Miłośnik zwierząt, mały smakosz i dziedzic piekarniczego imperium!

Dagmara również dość szybko odeszła.

Jeśli chodzi o Florencję i Syrakuzego, to chłopiec miał bardzo dobry kontakt ze swoim ojcem oraz całą jego rodziną.

Florencja rozwijała swoją kwiaciarnię, wychowywała syna oraz...związała się ze starym Maksymilianem Korzeniem. Oboje byli samotni i pragnęli bliskości.

Będąc z Triną, Gerwazy przestał farbować włosy i pogodził się z szybkim siwieniem (tak!). Przy swojej ukochanej mógł być sobą. Cieszył się z tego, co ma. Problemy zaczęły się jednak wraz z dorastaniem Ksawerego, który dowiedział się o przeszłości ojca i jego romansach...

Jacquet Family - Intro

I love this image. I imagine them celebrating them inheriting the bakery. 

The Jacquets consist of Denise Jacquet and her adult son, Gilbert. Denise is a recent widow, as her husband Yves passed before the story begins. Gilbert inherited Yves’ bakery, and now both plan to keep it running. So we will be focusing mostly on the bakery. 

Damn, the game just started. Remember when I mentioned the wage thing in the Landgraab round? 

Gilbert did have a crush on Trina. Unfortunately since he did not pay her well, that lost the attraction. For now. 

Despite losing Trina, the business does gain a rank. 

The rest of the business run was pretty uneventful. However, we did get a shock in the end when Trina arrived to the lot. 

Gilbert and Trina patched up their relationship and Trina was hired again. This time, she is being paid averagely. 

I had them head home and rest for a bit. Gilbert wanted to invite his crush Breanna Custer over. 

Despite being a Romance Sim and Breanna being a Knowledge Sim, the two of them have some chemistry together. 

They can be cute together, ngl.

That was pretty much it for the Jacquet family. I love the bakery business, since it is pretty simple. It helps that Denise is a great cook and can make most of the goods. 

Bonus: 

Beloved Smother much?

Picaso Household round 1

Jessica Picaso

Aspiration: Family/Popularity

LTW: Become General

Job: Elite Forces (Military Level 3)

OTH: Nature

ACR Preference: Straight

Matthew Picasso

Aspiration: Popularity/Family

LTW: Become General

Job: Elite Forces (Military Level 3)

OTH: Gaming

ACR Preference: Straight

Off to work in the dark.

I had to pick this option.

And it turns out well.

Very well. Matthew is promoted to Drill Instructor.

Jessica brings home Danielle Wade from work and promptly fails the Bechdel test.

Small world indeed, Danielle, how odd that you should have friends in the same career as you. Or are the fatigues a fashion statement?

Matthew wants to get his game on.

Aww Couples quality time!

Jessica’s One True Hobby is Nature, so she gets started on her container garden.

She very wisely waters her burgeoning gardening before it gets light the next morning.

Only Matthew’s at work today.

Cleaning helps with gardening or something...

Matthew comes home with another promotion, this time to Junior Officer.

To celebrate I send him and Jess out to 94 Road to Nowhere. Matthew was straight in the pool.

Whilst Jessica had lunch.

That’s right happily married couple, sit at different tables and shout a conversation.

Those two photos are completley unnnecessary and will just mean more tagging for me, but I love seeing my gyms functioning properly.

Synchronised bag punching.

Jess chills out in the hot springs and discusses whether they really do have anti-age transitioning properties with John Burb and a dormie.

Whilst Matthew takes advantage of the tropical fruit trees on the grounds,

Back at home Jessica takes a nap in their new hammock.

Before trying to catch some bugs. Nature Sims are so easy to keep happy, as are Gaming Sims. The other hobbies get somewhat shafted.

A Cusine Sim Jessica ain’t.

However the quirkly dressed elven Nature Hobby Master still thinks she’s hot as fuck.

Matthew enjoys the vastness of the Strangetown sky, he wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.

I let Jessica pamper herself a bit, I do seem to end up giving her a lot of the hard work around the house.

Matthew is very direct about what he wants.

And fortunately for him, Jessica was amenable.

Matthew: My wife has a fantastic arse!

I guess that’s a nice thought for him to have all day at work.

Matthew gets another chance card, but will it go so well for him this time?

Alas not. And I’d only just got him those two body skill points.

Jessica has a good day though, she’s promoted to Drill Instructor.

And she heads straight out back to tend her garden.

Matthew’s brought Danielle Wade home, seems she’s had a promotion too. And she find Matthew hilarious.

Really hilarious!

Jessica carries on with her skilling.

Whilst this time it’s Matthew in the hammock.

I wish there were more ways to gain Charisma.

Matthew does rehab for the quickest healing broken leg that ever happened.

And then the couple run laps on their new obstacle course. Jessica was kicking Matthew’s arse, but somehow I didn’t get photos of that. And that is the Picaso’s first round finished.

At this point, there’s no shortage of wrinkled, healthy and unoccupied elders in the Legacy house, some of which got a shitload of badges drinking orangeade all their life (among other skills), so they buy a couple of businesses.

Darren decided to go to the park for the inspiration. He met another grill enthusiast father but stopped in his track when he thought he saw a familiar face... it wasn’t her obviously he reasoned to himself but still... maybe it was a sign for him to move on finally...

at the Jacquet household: ~ Gilbert couldn’t decide which of his two townie loves to move in, so he asked both of them to move in (which totally didn’t end badly at all…) ~ he also proceeded to spawn children with them: he had Astrid with Breanna (the brunette) and Xavier with Trina ~ Breanna doesn’t seem particularly sad over Denise’s death

El mundo llora la muerte de Sean Connery

La partida del primer agente 007 del mundo del cine no podía ser ignorada por el ambiente artístico, considerando que (con gran éxito) Connery fue uno de los pocos actores que logró separarse de la imagen de James Bond y trabajar con múltiples estrellas del mundo del celuloide.

Además de los productores Michael G. Wilson y Barbara Broccoli, que junto al actual 007 Daniel Craig lamentaron su pesar horas después de que se diera a conocer la mala noticia, el actor escocés fue homenajeado por un sinfín de celebridades alrededor del mundo.

George Lazenby, que interpretó a James Bond por única vez en Al Servicio Secreto de Su Majestad, se expresó en Instagram, recordando también que Connery le dió el visto bueno a su actuación como 007: "Se fue un gran actor, un gran hombre y un talento infravalorado nos ha abandonado. Envío mis condolencias a Lady Micheline y a los hijos y nietos de Sean".

A través de la misma red social se expresó el actor Pierce Brosnan,que a los 11 años de edad quedó fascinado con la actuación de Connery en Goldfinger, sin saber que tres décadas más tarde se convertiría en el intérprete Bond que definiría al personaje en la década del 90 y el nuevo milenio: "Levantas una enorme sombra de esplendor cinematorgáfico que vivirá por siempre. Nos idicaste el camino a todos los que seguimos tus pasos. Cada hombre te miró con admiración y reverencia mientras forjábamos nuestras propias interpretaciones del personaje. El mundo te amó y te extrañará. Dios te bendiga, descansa en paz".

Timothy Dalton, el cuarto 007, le dijo al New York Times que Connery fue “una presencia maravillosa y un gran líder”. Los herederos de Roger Moore, en Twitter, escribieron: "Es una noticia desgarradora enterarnos que Sir Sean Connery ha fallecido. Roger y él mantuvieron una amistad por décadas y Roger siempre aseguró que Sean fue el mejor James Bond de todos. Qepd".

Trina Parks, actriz de Los Diamantes Son Eternos, usó Facebook para despedir al actor: "Mi corazón está triste al enterarme de la partida de Sean Connery. Estuvo en este planeta por 90 años y era exquisito. Actuar con él fue la primera vez que me divertí tanto al golpear a alguien en una película. No nos conocíamos antes de rodar, pero él me trató como si nos conociéramos desde antes". Lana Wood, que interpretó a Plenty O’Toole en la misma película, se expresó en Twitter: "Estoy devastada... su espíritu, su alma, aún está aquí y siempre quedará en mi corazón. Dios te bendiga".

Del mismo modo, otros actores de la familia de James Bond despidieron a quien fuera del agente 007 en la década del 60: Britt Ekland (El Hombre del Revólver de Oro), Robert Carlyle (El Mundo No Basta), John Cleese (El Mundo No Basta, Otro Día Para Morir) y la cantante Shirley Bassey completan la lista. 

Fuera del radar de 007, Arnold Schwarzenegger lo llamó “una leyenda” y Sam Neill, quien apareció junto a él en La Caza Al Octubre Rojo interpretando a Vasili, dijo que "cada día junto a él en el rodaje era una clase de actuación". Catherine Zeta-Jones, su coestrella en La Emboscada, subió una foto junto a él en Instagram, escribiendo: "Adiós, amigo mío. Te amo, Sean Connery, con todo mi corazón. Hasta que nos volvamos a ver, atesoraré cada momento que compartimos juntos".

Argentina no se quedó atrás en el recuerdo: nombres como Cristina Pérez, Daniel Filmus, María José Lubertino, Nacho Viale y Eugenia Tobal son algunos de los nombres más reconocidos del país que despidieron al 007 original. Juana Viale, que este año reemplaza a su abuela Mirtha Legrand en La Noche De Mirtha, también recordó a Connery brevemente en su programa.

Soon after Denise has closed her bedroom door, things escalate. A little too quickly for Trina's taste. "Whoa there, whoa. Hold your horses, cowboy!" Gilbert is taken aback. "Oh... I'm sorry. I, um... I thought we were on the same page here." "Yeah, but geez, haven't you ever heard of foreplay?" Oh, so she wants the smooth talk. Yeah, Gilbert knows how to play that game. "My fair lady Trina, you are speaking to the local expert on the subject, if I do say so myself. And you are worthy of nothing less." "Oh, Gilbert, it's beautiful! Red roses are my favourite!" Trina takes the rose and inhales deeply. Gilbert smiles to himself. Red roses are all women's favourite, if Florence is to be believed. "Not half as beautiful as you are, my love." "Where did you even get this?" "Delarosa Flowers, naturally." "No, I mean, right now?" "That, my dear, is my little secret."

“No worries! Someone’s got to keep an eye on you, right?”

“Uh, sure.”

Shannon is long-time crush/employee Trina Dalton, but I didn’t feel like she was iconic enough to re-name, hahaha. She the one employee they were able to keep on since she hadn’t fallen for Gilbert’s charms/crap.

Shepparton artist features in new First Nations online art exhibition

The display showcases each artist cultural influences and celebrates the wide variety of their works and processes.

Mr Firebrace created a mammoth-sized piece for the exhibition in a bid to reveal how something so small could have an enormous impact on the world.

“Essentially the whole gist of the work essentially talks about when we walk through country we take in the vast nature of what we see but this artwork challenges us to look more closely at the little things nature encompases,” Mr Firebrace said.

“From a leaf, to the ground, even barks itself - if you take a deeper look you will find there is a smaller world within.

“My work takes on the notion, that we as people have a large impact on our environment and how it can be easily destroyed by the touch of our fingers, our feet and machines without us realising what it embodies,” he said.

The 1.4m by 1.5m acrylic work was compiled on a piece of linen and is named Paperbark.

“It goes on to talk about how the small mynute things are literally the building blocks of life and we can walk past it and not realise the function it has in the world,” Mr Firebrace said.

“We build highways and roads to go places faster, but we don’t realise that it is on top or above the land that use to be walked.

“And if we go too fast, we can tend to miss out on the minutiae little things.

“I made it so big because I wanted to reverse the role and make the little things really consume the viewer in a physical sense."

The idea for the work stemmed from Mr Firebrace taking the opportunity to enjoy the extra time he had at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“As well as being an artist I work as an educational officer for the Catholic Schools Office of Sandhurst, so I have worked a lot from home lately,” Mr Firebrace said.

Other artists featured in the exhibition include Janet Bromley, Lorraine Brigdale, Robyn Davis, Samantha James, Natasha Carter, Trina Dalton-Oogjes, Kerri Douglas and Dianne Turner.

The virtual exhibition takes places at the Bendigo Visitor Centre’s Living Arts Space and is called Sharing Process.

Visitor services manager Jemma Docherty said the Greater Bendigo region had a thriving community of First Nations artists.

“We’re really proud to be hosting this exhibition, which is a beautiful showcase of some of our best local artists,” Ms Docherty said.

“All artworks in the exhibition will be available for purchase through the Uniquely Bendigo website.

“Many local artists and creatives have been heavily impacted by COVID-19 so purchasing an artwork is a wonderful way to show your support.”

Three online workshops will also accompany the gallery of works and will be available through the Explore Bendigo website just in time for school holidays.

People will be able to make their own ochre and mineral paints, learn traditional coil weaving and learn to weave with recycled materials.

The exhibition is now open online and will open for face to face visits when COVID-19 restrictions allow.
