A Rare Sighting of the Pelican Eel...
The pelican eel's most notable feature is its large mouth, which is much larger than its body. The mouth is loosely hinged, and can be opened wide enough to swallow a fish much larger than the eel itself. The lower jaw is hinged at the base of the head, with no body mass behind it, making the head look disproportionately large. Its jaw is so large that it is estimated to be about a quarter of the total length of the eel itself.

It’s so wonderful to inspire and collaborate as colleagues and friends. Exchange-portrait-session on a windy walk with Simon.

I get fed up with daffodils being seen as all jaunty and jolly, so here's a more mysterious and menacing view of one - from my archives.
So, practically. If Canada were to join the EU, what steps would be required? We'd obviously need to apply, like other countries. Certainly greater presence in Brussels.
Would we need to adopt the Euro? I'd think so, but not sure if that is a good idea.
We'd have to upgrade a lot of our standards
It is called Enlargement. Seems appropriate for the era we are in.

A simple 3-step process - Candidacy, Member Negotiations & then Accession.
Who doesn't want accession?
EU enlargement
Enlargement happens when new countries join the European Union. This has taken place several times in the EU’s history, each time transforming both the EU and the countries that join.European Union

My jointer restoration project, still sitting at the old place. Paused for now, but not forgotten. Was in the middle of this when we finally found the right homestead.
Need to make space for it here first. Preferably with a foundation, so I don't have to move it again.
And then find about six strong elephants to help me load it onto a trailer.
Problems for another time.

Le rapport «Planetary Solvency» indique que si on continue à ignorer le climat et les limites planétaires, on fonce vers un réchauffement moyen de 3°C, chute de 50% du PIB mondial, chute de 50% de la population mondiale et un tas d'autres problèmes politique et sociaux... Tout ça avant la fin du siècle.

Gaaah, what did I get myself into here with this 46 kg monstrosity…?! I can hardly lift it myself. This will be interesting to get through the bandsaw.
I really gotta learn to say no to such things 🫣 But it's one nice long cherry log…
(Oops, did I say one? I meant three – the other ones are hiding out of frame. Luckily they're a bit lighter!)
#woodworking
Two logs and another broken screw extraction later. One log to go. 😤
Somehow my body aches a lot today. I can only imagine how people must have felt after sawing logs to boards 100 years ago. 😫
Hard work, for sure! None the less I still have the wish, to try out a whale saw one day, in my mind.
