Halloween Ramble! Updates, Dracula & Stingy Jack!

What a delightful way to rejoin Gaelandia... It has been quite a fickle and foul 2 years. I have missed this delightful news filled, updatey, giggly, educational experience Mayor G. Thank you for the ever fascinating stories and lessons. It is good to know that you are well and safe, despite the crazy. I'm looking forward to your new year rambles💋 🙃💚

The fact that you snort when you laugh gives me life. It's just so genuine and it makes me happy.

This ramble is a gem! 😍! Loved hearing your little snort too 😂 I could listen to your stories forever. They make me smile 😊I would probably of thought that bird was a dolphin too. The water/car incident sounded scary but glad everything worked out okay.

Hearing your authentic snort-laugh instantly cheers me up, my dude. 😊

I am praying that everything gets settled for you. I live in Southeast area of America, Charleston, SC & we deal w flooding here on regular basis as we're on lower elevation of coast of Atlantic ocean so when high tide comes in you'll find many cars on main roads stalled out. They've been working on trying to deal w the drainage issues. There's lots of jacked up trucks that tow & push others through as thankfully we're all very hospitable ppl towards everyone where a smile & nod along with thanks goes far. We know they're from the heart as no one will take any $ or favors in return for just doing the right thing. I know you do a lot of traveling and I imagine it's all pretty much there in Ireland. I love nature and all it's wonderous beauty that's has been created. It seems that a lot of it there is still untouched so can still enjoy it. So much here is being taken over with developments and even now what's supposed to be our protected wetlands they're trying to put a main road through that would destroy it. I'm hoping that petition w it's historical grounds of protection will hold up though as that's what it's designed to do! We need our land, trees and wildlife that it all creates and breeds. Sorry, I've gotten off on a rambling here myself. Just sharing as hoping that you're drying out and have found a place where you feel more spiritually sound and able to just fully feel where you're meant to be and be yourself completely!

I could listen to you read the dictionary and be enamored. You have an easiness to yourself..It's so comforting even when things get wild w your grunts/growls, then the little slight laugh thrown in at times, all made so endearing. Of course the many just audios of where so much of compassion comes out to make feel truly loved and completely adored. It's amazing and such a need for that in general but especially in these scary times around COVID where we've been separated from so many and basic need of human interaction much less touch and further intimacy is truly declined so needed more so than ever. So, thank you for all of it ! You know how to reach the needs of us all.

I really enjoyed and appreciated this ramble, thanks for sharing your wonderful stories!!😊💕

I’m once again and promise for the last time here to say that not only G’s ahhhhhhmazing ramble but all these sweet comments made my entire October month. Wow. What a beautiful and unique community we have ♥️

This was fantastic as always, perfect escapism and storytelling 🤗 There are few certainties in life but your rambles being a dead set fun time is one for sure! I couldn't help but get the track "Ghost Town" back in my head after hearing your chat so I should thank you for that returning earworm. Not that we intend to find joy in your misery but your car shenanigans are so relatable and the way you recount the ordeal lightens an otherwise fraught experience. I had to smile in understanding at the rear-ending vehicle scenario as I've been there, done that and borderline got the t-shirt for it in the past 🥴 I did let the shock takeover and the waterworks started but it probably helped to calm the other driver when they saw how mortified I was!🤷‍♀️ It's wonderful to hear you so happy and animated from being released back out into the wild on adventures and meeting all sorts of characters. Did you get that ice cream with sprinkles in the end? Truth be told, I think your friend probably deserves a treat for being subjected to such public embarrassment with your terrible twos style outburst 😅 I think those weird covid cake dreams were a blessing in disguise because how else would you have such a random and hilarious story to recount in a ramble🤭 Here's hoping no-one used those re-igniting candles on the cakes because that would make for even more of a candle blowing covid cake nightmare! I enjoyed the stories as always yet I don't much fancy my chances of successfully crafting a turnip into a latern! I'll stick with a big ol' pumpkin to create something worthy of terrifying Jack and all his ghoulish gang 🤔🎃 Though I'm sure you've already got enough movie suggestions to keep you going until next Halloween, I'd add the Evil Dead movies (from the 80s and 90s) to the list. I've been rewatching them lately and can't get enough. Bruce Campbell shines in the role of Ash and the later ones are just the right side of horror humour for a comfortable watch in the dark. I'm not so good with the proper slasher and serious horror because they're the kinda movies that get me running to the light in the next area when I turn off the lightswitch as I leave a room, wondering what I'll find behind me when I close a bathroom mirror cabinet door and making frequent paranoid glances under the bed!😳😬

Ah I missed your rambles! I listen to them when I'm cleaning the house, always give me a chuckle and makes my chores less boring. I love hearing your stories. All the festive Halloween talk and folklore made me happy. We love Halloween here in Canada and I especially love the vampire bit. Bram Stokers Dracula is one of my all time favourites, so romantic and the music makes your heart flutter ♥️

Annaztien

Oh my😱 what an ordeal with the water and all..poor thing..😚😥But i'm so glad you were okay, and your equipment was saved..i had my fair share of car troubles, the big accident with the Merc i told you of.Once i drove too fast into a corner, and the car spun 360 degrees😱😲That was quite a shocker😳but i hit nothing!A miracle🌟😇 got stuck in the middle of fckin nowhere at night,with an empty radiator, windscreen wipers just stopped working in the middle of a giant rain storm..😲😱Life just sucks sometimes😑😝but like you said always keep goin, with a brave heart, and do what needs to be done! I'm the happiest girl ,now i know that you are doing good sweetie😍😚Thank you...And they definately were inspired by you Irish lot with the Halloween traditions😊🎃Great stories !will check out that website and such☺️Honey, take care and there will be great things coming for you, im sure! You deserve the world!♥️"you are not a drop in the ocean, you are the entire ocean in a drop"!😽😻have a wonderful evening, sweetie!All my sweet love...💓💋

Emma Ranson

This might be a little bit of a long comment, and I’m not sure if you’ll see this, but Gael, I just want to let you know how much of a profound difference you’ve made to my life. I found your videos on YouTube and was immediately so entranced by your voice and the scenarios you had set up in each video. So, after listening to your ‘Good Girl’ video (my weakness) a few months ago, I decided to join your Patreon on a whim and it truly was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a while. Not only have your audios allowed me to tap into a deep inner realm of sexual ‘enerdree’ within me and feel so much intense pleasure, but they’ve also given me so much strength and empowerment. Your rambles comfort me, fill me with so much positivity, joy and happiness. Your meditative audios have helped me navigate through my thoughts and emotions on many difficult occasions. You made the difficult lockdown period here in Sydney so so so much more bearable and actually, fun. I was never someone to pay much attention to ‘ASMR’ videos or things of the like, but you really changed my mind and heart. Everything you do fills me with so much love, peace, and utter happiness. My secret little happy pill. Though I really have no idea who you are as a person in real life, what you look like, or what your real identity is, from the way that you portray yourself on here, in your audios, and on social media, there is one thing that I can be certain of - you are a genuinely kind and pure human being. Someone who is truly one of a kind. I can’t imagine my life anymore without ‘Gaelforce Audios’. It sounds absurd, but it’s true. Now, I finally got a moment of peace to listen to this ramble in its entirety, and let me just say that I have missed your rambles IMMENSELY. I could just sit for hours and hours listening to you ramble about anything and everything. It’s just so comforting and cheerful, it always puts a smile on my face. I hope that you can attain everything that you want in this world and beyond, because you truly deserve all the goodness for how much you help others - whether or not you know the extent of your gift. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Thank you times infinity. That’s the end of my cheesy rant. In short, you make me feel really good, inside and out. Here is a giant air hug from me. Have a blessed day sweet one 💚

I loved this gael I love your story telling, and wow I did not know why they were called jack o lanterns scary, and u make me giggle gael u brighten my day up if I'm sad or having a bad day, and the dolphin part had me crying with laughter hehe, have a fantastic halloween gael 🎃 I'm happy u found somewhere although it's not permanent. Once again thankyou so much gael stay safe 💖💖💖💖

I think this could be one of my all time favourite rambles G so fantastic…I have to say when you were telling us about the lady hitting the other lady in the car and you rushed to see if she was ok…please say you took her out to dinner and romance occurred lol sounds like the perfect rom com to meeee 🤣😏😏😜 Ohh I had weird dreams after my covid shots especially after the 2nd…but mine were more sexy lol and those I enjoyed lol let’s just say I hope we are aloud to get booster shots soon here in Melbourne 🤣🤣 I could sit and listen to your rambles forever…the river, the “dolphin” lol the ice cream with your “dad” lol I loved all of it so perfect…can’t wait for the next one they are so special…almost like a verbal diary if that sounds right? ❤️ Thanks again G hope you have a wonderful Halloween and drive safely❤️🍦🐬🌊🚘 P.S thank you for commenting on so many of the lovelies posts above G it’s really kind and sweet to see. 😊🍦

Thanks"G" I love your Rambles, and I also love your Irish stories, think about doing an audio of Irish stories, because we love your stories and your acting them for us . Your the best "Happy Halloween"". Stay safe!

Uhhh I see you, fellow dark shadows watcher! 👀💗 Did you know I watched that when Netflix sent us DISCS in the MAIL? 😂 I was pregnant with kid number one, and that was one of the things that got my mind off the NINE MONTHS of random gagging 😭 (and I named my most recent short story after that show 😂😂)

Thank you so much for the ramble!! Absolutely loved it. You were great company on my jog this evening. You really do carry a story well. All those side voices you do give me a good laugh every time. Cheers!

Just finished the ramble G! Thank you so much! I felt like I was "shootin' the breeze" with an old friend. The stories made me laugh and your laughter always brightens my day! 😊

I'm only 12 minutes in and oh my Lord! What a day you had! Here's hoping that everything works out for you! Please stay safe and in good spirits!😊

Thank you so much for the new ramble! I could listen to you tell stories for hours! Loved the story with the dolphin 😂 so funny and adorable!

I love reading yer comments! So heartwarming 😍😍

You made me laugh so much, your storytelling skills are amazing!😚👌 I had so much fun listening to this. I really love your rambles, thank you💜 And I hope you find good and happy place for yourself!🙌

Ah Halloween Week! I’m in the middle of re-watching the Dark Shadows series from the 60’s. It’s such a great gothic romance with stories stretching 1200+ episodes. If I can find it, I want to watch The Others with Nicole Kidman. It’s a really great little scary movie. I have some episodes of What We Do in the Shadows to catch up on. It’s also time to break out It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. Hope you have a fabulous Samhain, Mr. Mayor!

Always love your rambles, enjoyed this so much.. I'm happy to hear you are all good.. 😊 And glad you are alright after the car incident sounded very scary! hope you get your car back really soon... 😊The Dolphin/Bird story was so funny 😆 and I really enjoyed the Abhartach and Stingy Jack stories so interesting! I hope you find the perfect permanent home next year! Stay safe and stay well! 😊🤗❤️

Tracey

Yaaayy love your rambles. Thanks for the update. Glad to hear you are being careful and deliberate in choosing the perfect place. Flash floods are so scary and dangerous! Relieved that you’re safe! Sending happy thoughts to your car and your guitar. I’ve got all my Halloween decorations out, got my candy and finishing up costumes for the littles. They are going as characters from the Among Us video game. I barely understand it; I nod and smile 🤷🏻‍♀️ I design the concept and the mister does amazing work with duct tape and cardboard costumes 😂 I’m picking out some pumpkins this week. Traditionally we spend an afternoon at the pumpkin farm; we bring lunch and have a picnic and go for a tractor wagon ride into the field to pick out our big orange boys 🎃 Sadly our favorite spot closed so I’m picking ‘em at the grocery store this year 😣 Then again, thanks to you I have a fun origin story to tell the boys about Jack o lanterns 😁 Generally we don’t carve them until the day of Halloween because once you carve them, they spoil sometimes overnight. It is literally my favorite holiday because it’s all about kids, and there are ZERO family discussions or obligations around it. I’m finally starting to feel excited about it again, last year I was ready for all holidays to go away and stop pestering me. Anyway hope you have a fun Halloween, 🦁 Stay clear of the banshees, now. And btw You most certainly did see a dolphin. 🐬

We love it when you ramble and hear ye talk and snort and hear your body language as you talk, it's alllllll absolutely fun to hear my dear ♡ The dolphin story and what you did to your friend acting like a kiddo crying for ice cream, that was hilarious 😂👏😂👏. Love the child in ye G, so adorable 😽 The river story and after seeing the video ye posted on Twitter, jeeeez baiiiii!!! 🙀 I'm absolutely glad that you are safe and sound 🙏❤ I enjoyed all the stories you mentioned, some of them were new to me but twas so much fun to hear and learn about them. Your such a good story teller, G! So much fun hear you read for us 🥰 All the best to you and take care 🌹

G, so glad to hear a ramble! It was wonderful, knowing things are going ok for you makes my day. We are here for you!. Please drive careful, avoid the water!

Chaos everywhere with Gael! 😂This is the BEST ramble from you! I guess, i like rambling Gael more than sensual Gael. U are being you, with the snort as a bonus 😁 Woman do love funny, goofy, and chaotic kind of guy. I dont know why is nature against you all the time 😂 But, please take care. Glad u are okay 🍀 I love horror movies too. Especially related to myth, mystical creatures. I’ve learnt a lot bout irish folklores. So for this time around, I would like to suggest “Boys From County Hell” 😂 Oh my godd, the way u teased ur friend “ice cream with sprinkles” cuz of dolphin 🐬 🤣🤣🤣 and the covid cake 🤣 its like listening to a long lost friend rambling. I like this version of G moreeeeee. U are my new crush! 😆♥️ Tata

Oh, this is gonna be a long one 😯 Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” is my 2nd favourite book and “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” is my 2nd favourite movie. I rarely get a chance to geek out about either one, so consider the floodgates of commentary officially open! ☝️🤓 So, ”Bram Stoker's Dracula" by Francis Ford Coppola is an amazing movie. One issue that I have with it, though, is the title. Although it borrows heavily from Bram's actual novel, its biggest deviation from the book also happens to be the cornerstone of the movie - i.e., the relationship between Dracula and Mina. <b>[SPOILERS AHEAD!]</b> In Bram's novel, Dracula isn't given too much of a backstory. I think Coppola's decision to portray Dracula as a vengeful and heartbroken warrior who renounces God after Elisabeta dies is a really creative one. It makes the viewer more sympathetic to the character of Dracula, plus it allows Gary Oldman's 90s-era sex appeal to shine through, spurring my love for seductive looking men in top hats 😍 But the downside is that Bram's original portrayal of vampires as soulless monsters gets lost in the romance between Dracula and Mina, a relationship that never actually happened in the book.
<br><br>I mean, I think Gary Oldman and Winona Ryder had pretty good chemistry in the movie, and I’m as much of a fan of the “sexy vampire seduces a human woman” trope as any other lady. But the Dracula/Mina romance dynamic almost seems to have become canon in pop culture, and the actual romance in the novel (a.k.a. Jonathan and Mina Harker’s relationship) is rarely portrayed despite it being really quite sweet for a book written in the 1890s. Like, you know the scene in the movie where Mina is shown willingly drinking Dracula’s blood? In the book, Dracula actually forces Mina to drink his blood by pinning her arms and shoving her face into his chest so that she either drinks his blood or suffocates. And this is <i>after</i> he threatens to murder to her husband if she tries to warn him that Dracula has entered their room. Dracula doesn’t try to turn Mina into one of his kind because he loves her and wants spend eternity with her - rather, he does it to punish Van Helsing and Co. for interfering with his plans to terrorize England. He basically views Mina as a piece of meat, both literally and figuratively 😒 As much as I enjoyed Coppola’s movie, it does poor Jonathan Harker dirty. Dracula is seen as the leading man whose love for Elisabeta/Mina transcends time, and Jonathan is more or less a wilting flower in his presence. But one of my favourite lines from Bram’s novel is when Jonathan describes his intentions if Mina does end up turning into a vampire: <i>”To one thing I have made up my mind: if we find out that Mina must be a vampire in the end, then she shall not go into that unknown and terrible land alone. I suppose it is thus that in old times one vampire meant many; just as their hideous bodies could only rest in sacred earth, so the holiest love was the recruiting sergeant for their ghastly ranks.”</i> It may be grim, but it shows the depths of Jonathan’s love for Mina. He’s willing to sacrifice his soul and humanity to be with her should she turn, even though Van Helsing and the rest of the team would undoubtedly slay them both afterwards. Exciting bad boys like Dracula may be fine for casual flings, but at the end of the day it’s devoted and loving men like Jonathan Harker that you want to settle down with ☝️😯 In addition to shitting all over Jonathan and Mina’s relationship, one thing that Coppola’s movie unfortunately omitted was a more well-rounded portrayal of the character of Mina. She arguably has a much greater role in the movie compared to the book, but she’s reduced to just being the love interest, even if it’s the fancy “love that transcends time and space”. Bram’s novel is regrettably a product of its time with its general portrayal of women as faint of heart and delicate of constitution, but he does highlight multiple times how Mina is intelligent, brave, cunning, and resourceful. Apart from Van Helsing himself, she’s largely the brains behind the campaign to destroy Dracula. We get a brief glimpse of Assertive Mina in the movie when she tells Dracula to piss off after he keeps approaching her in the street. But that quickly ends after she apologizes for being rude (although rejecting his advances is absolutely not rude), and then even accompanies him - a complete stranger to her - to the cinema. Again, I still think Coppola’s movie was great, but I do wish that he’d done a better job of portraying Mina as a strong, resourceful woman. Instead, she just got bogged down as the love interest who succumbs to Dracula’s pelvic sorcery 😕 If any of you want to read the novel, it’s available online for free: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/345/345-h/345-h.htm There’s also a “sequel” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracula_the_Un-dead) that was written by Dacre Stoker, Bram’s great grandnephew. However, I personally think it’s a complete literary monstrosity that tries to retcon Bram’s entire novel, and that the elder Stoker must be spinning in his grave over it (🥁)

Precious angel....please write a book for men.. lol. So glad you have been ok,You's keep trucking and everything will work out. You gots all our 🌈 powers pushing for ya. Oh no poor baby 🌊😿.🚐 Scooby Doo saves the day 💚. Yeah right those ladies saw you and that's why they crashed.🤣 Gael the rescuer ❤️. Hyperactive...☺️. 🍨. I just got my shot Friday!!!!😍 You be safe in the world! Bram stoker's festival!!! Will note that to the travel agenda🤯💚 That is a wild story. Love all the mythological connections. In both stories. Neat how "vampire creatures" have so many variations. Europe is very cool. Jack 🎃 o' lantern. Love it! I have my pumpkins lit🕯️right now spoopy. You are so cool Gael. 😍 Loving the background music choice for this. Chill. 🍻 We got moonshine here from the Irish scotch in the mountains. Wino forever!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell yeah❤️😍 the 1992 movie version is everything. ⛈️❤️❤️❤️😍Say ' Drra qu la' again, and roll those rrr's, 🥴 Damn you are so cool! Ahhh..I'm so glad you are doing well. We loves ya and be safe. ❤️⭐🌛🍀🌈

Omg! I love your rambles. I got to come home early from work and this is a real treat for me to listen at home on a Sunday evening. I am terrified of needles. Getting the vaccine was my nightmare. Your laughter is contagious.😂😂 Thank you so much G, for making my evening very relaxing.

Very well said Shelley!

(I hope this doesn't show up 4 times because that's how many times I've tried to post) This is the first ramble since I arrived in Gaelandia and I couldn’t be more tickled!!! It also clarified something that I have thought about a lot lately. As you may or may not know, erotic audio is becoming more and more popular - especially among women - and Gaelforce is right at the top of the game. He is number one in his category on Patreon while other creators with comparable numbers of followers occupy other categories. In the last few months many of the most popular and successful male creators in the erotic voice acting space have found themselves embroiled in situations that have hurt their reputations considerably, mostly because they have crossed lines that shouldn’t be crossed. Our beloved Gael has avoided such complications and today’s ramble really hit home for me in understanding why. I don’t know if he is a genius, just lucky, has great instincts, or a bit of all three. What I DO know is that he does some crucial things right: 1. He ensures that listeners know that real-life Gael is separate from the character in the audios. 2. He is impeccable about the line that separates him from his listeners. 3. He fiercely guards his anonymity. 4. He gears his content to grown-ass women. 5. He inspires a self-sustaining community that makes it a helluva lot easier for him to maintain items 1-4. And all the while he manages to make each of us feel as if he’s addressing us one-on-one. Thank you Gael. Whoever you are…

Shelley

Great ramble Gael! Love your stories &amp; that laugh! I have a thing for dolphins! I’ve spent the day at several research &amp; rescue centers &amp; one of my best memories was being able to swim &amp; be in the water with them for a few hours. They are so intelligent and so playful, actually quite the tricksters! So I’m with you…..You Did See a Dolphin!!! 😉 Loved the story of Stingy Jack as well, I knew of it from stories on my father’s side originally from Ireland &amp; best friend’s grandparents born in Ireland lived with her family here in America...... but haven’t heard any version of it in a long time. Thanks for the energy that you put into all that you do, it’s really impressive! Take care &amp; stay away from those flash floods like!!! 😘

Also, because I can’t not give book recs, if anyone wants a fun spooky Dracula historical fiction, I cannot recommend *The Historian* by Elizabeth Kostova highly enough. This takes the angle that Dracula was Vlad Tepes III, the Transylvanian King, but it’s beautifully written and told in a style that is all letters and journal entries, much like the original.

LynnieBee

Thank you thank you thank you, G!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I was smiling and laughing so much listening to this!!! (Except for the flooded car! Yikes! So scary! I’m sorry about the car, but I’m so glad you’re okay!) I had never heard of Abhartach, but it definitely does sound a lot like Dracula! And I agree, Bram Stoker’s Dracula with Gary Oldman and Winona Ryder is an all-time favorite of mine; I was actually just thinking about that movie this morning! In terms of Halloween goodness I read an excellent short horror story yesterday called *The Quiet Boy* by Nick Antosca; there’s a new horror movie coming out next week called *Antlers* that was based on it. We’ll be watching spooky movies and carving pumpkins this week! I’m reading a book called *The Widow’s Broom* to my classes this week too! I love the story of Stingy Jack! I first heard it last year around Halloween 🎃 I adore your Rambles, they perk me up so much, thank you 🥰 Keep us updated on the move in the New Year! 🙏🏻

LynnieBee

Haha same meaning in Spanish! 😝 (without the accent)

Oh, my, was this a delight!😄 Yeah, just take your time and make the right move when the time is right. Rushing to find a house won't do. Kiss for luck for you to find the perfect comfy place.😚❤ That car accident, oh my God, that sounds scary! I'm so glad you're ok and that you weren't actually in a river, and can laugh about it now. Here's to some speedy repairs!🍀 Poor Fungie. I used to love seeing pics of him on my tl from time to time. If ever a dolphin looked like it was happily smiling in photos, it was him.❤ Your Halloween folklore stories were so fun to listen to! I got chills! &amp; yes, I think Bram Stoker very likely gathered a bit of inspiration from the old tales. As to what Halloween stuff I'm watching, let me just say that your timing was even better than I realized at the time when I stopped watching the new episode of What We Do in the Shadows to listen to Double Vampire Gael that night. When I went back to the episode the following day (I won't give away any spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it), the rest of it went from riotously funny to heartbreaking and touching and sad so swiftly that I was really shocked for some time. Looking back, I was grateful to you that your timing prevented me from going to bed on such a sad note. I highly, highly recommend the film and the TV series. They're so funny, full of heart, and truly great, a really unique take on vampires.🧛‍♂️❤ It's always a pleasure to get all rambly with you! Much love. Muah!❤🤗😚❤

Omg this is the best thing to wake up to! Thank you Gael! 💗

Must research my last name more bc reasons 🤔 🧛🏼‍♂️☠

Laura Gahan

Haigh Gael, I ˋm sorry to hear you had an accident, but I ˋm happy you are alright! I hope things will sort out soon. You inspired me to watch Bram Stokerˋs Dracula again. Not a fan of horror movies, but I love Vampire stuff🩸. I bought a big pumpkin yesterday and now it’s waiting to be carved🎃. I love your rambles, even if a dolphin turns out to be a bird😂👍!

Dominique

I love your rambles! I have the house to myself for the 1st time in over a year, so this was perfect timing....got to enjoy this with no interruptions! I'm happy to hear you have a temporary home. Stay safe! 🤗💜☺

Yay!! Your rambles are my favorite, this was very nice to listen to while painting. So nice to hear from you. And the universe always throws you some interesting stuff, doesn’t it? 😅

Thank you so much for this, I love your stories, and its perfect for a windy rainy Oregon day. I never realized Stoker was Irish, and I do need to see that movie again, and the Winona/Wino tattoo is actually on his shoulder, I would definitely believe that Depp would hitchhike his was thru Ireland, that is so a him. Glad you have a temporary place, so looking forward to you finding your forever home, and yes, take you time and make sure its right for you, don't want to repeat. You and cars seem to not have much luck, kinda like you and technology, so definitely be careful out there. but glad you can get out and about again. Giant hugs to you! oh, I told my adopted mom about my Irish friend who travels around and tells great stories, and she's praying for you to find a new home, so you should get lucky soon, cause when she prays, things tend to happen

Btw, if you'd like to read about Bram Stoker and Dracula there's this book called "Dracul" 😃 Haven't read it yet, but would love to someday! Here's a link you can find more about it. ☺️ https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38363799-dracul

Yes! Oh I missed these!!! It’s like having you cop-a-squat with me on the floor while I wrap and pack my dishes for my move later this week. Perfect timing I hate packing almost as much as unpacking. Thanks, G. 💋🤗💋🤗

FYI Covid cake in Irish is Covid Cáca I wonder if other languages have other meanings to cáca cuz in my language in has a totally different meaning "💩" ifyaknowwhatimeanlike 🙈😂 Okay back to listening 😁

Yay! It is very cool! Imma watch it too

Haha! Chaos is my friend 😀

Oh my God. I would go all Hollywood brain and run! And prolly be killed by some fooker in a mask 🥲 They say you shouldn’t run but what’s a human supposed to do in a horror situation like? And especially when Wes Craven is behind the scenes

Aww I am so happy you like! And you are right! The covid cake dream was fffn disturbing! It was cool when I woke though. No cake and no covid kids thank fook

P.s we leave Gael alone for a bit and this happens 🙄. hope things are more settled for you

Laura Gahan

Haha! I love that! Stick to your reality guns Arabella! Don’t cave like

We are a crazy imaginative bunch of leprechaun people xd

Thank you so much for the ramble G! Yes you are great at producing *ahem* other content but you are phenomenal at storytelling! Speaking of scary movies. Last weekend I had just finished watching Halloween followed by Friday the 13th. It’s 1:30am and I’m sitting at the kitchen counter drinking a glass of water when the power goes out. Worst timing EVER! I saw the neighbors across the street had power so I had to really give myself a pep talk to walk out front to check if my side of the street had power. Luckily it wasn’t just us so I ran inside and got into bed at lightening speed. 😅

Awww thank ya Liz

Hope you enjoy!

Ohh synchronicity is verrry cool!

How deep is your love? ( answering a question with a ? ) 😃

You’re welcome xd

🤗🤗

Backatya Lala!

Uh huh! Loneliness isn’t a problem if you love your own company like

I hope you find your little secure happy place , life is seasons and seasons come and go , so enjoy this seasons advantages because it’s gonna pass , honestly some of the COVID rules are just ridiculous like they affected everyone’s livelihood and mental health, omg your car situation is insane so glad that you made it out safely and the COVID cake nightmare 😭😭😂 Everyone I know myself included is having nightmares lately like what’s going on 😭 your rambles bring me so much joy and happiness so thank you so much you could talk FOR LITERALLY HOURS AND ID STILL LOVE TO LISTEN😂

Hehe thank you! I’m happy you like!

So you’re chill billing! Love it!

Your rambles are the besht!☘️ Your hyper energy, jumping around from story to story is so entertaining 😅🥰 very relatable. But so scary about your car and getting caught in the water, I’m glad you’re ok! The dolphin story was so amazing! I’d also be adamant I saw one too! 😤🐬😌 And it’s always so interesting to hear about more Irish history and mythology about Halloween! This really made my day, glad you’re doing well G! 🤗

You too xd

Tis!!

Ta failte romhat!

I have been known to quell fiery fevers Oh wait! That is Seanie 😀😀

Such a treat to hear you sounding so animated, and your snort laugh is my fave sound in the world now 🥰 I think my fever broke from laughing at your stories 😂 Tell your friend he has no imagination and that definitely was a dolphin 😜Hopefully Stingy Jack and the Abhartach don't give me nightmares as it's nearly 3am now.... but tbh I never knew these Halloween and horror icons were of Irish origin. I definitely think Bram Stoker took a lot of inspiration from the Abhartach for his Dracula, for sure! If you have a bit of time try watching the animation called Trese on Netflix, it has a lot of Filipino mythology in the story aka stuff of my childhood nightmares. Anyway, thanks again G and I hope the permanent move goes well next year. We're here rooting for ye 😘

Want part did you visit?

I hope he's there to help come hell or high water, then 😂

True story: The insurance guy who I am dealing with name is Noah. I was in floods when he told me his name.

Listened while putting away laundry, so thanks for keeping me company! Also going to put the movie on my “to watch” list for this week!

So good to hear ye, friend, you sound wonderful and made me laugh. Thank you so much!!!

Perfect timing &amp; 47 minutes....perfect for today! Can't wait to listen.....😊

So excited! This is perfect to listen to before the first storm we've had in what feels like forever. 😍🎧🌧️ I love the way you tell stories!

G? How big is this bird???😂

Omg finally a RAMBLE💕💕 thanks G!

yay! 47 minutes of your nonsense, love it!

It's misty and rainy here too... im sitting by the fire as well which is rather perfect for today. A cup of tea and this ramble is the perfect Sunday 😌 I miss Ireland a lot. My uncle lived there for a long time so I used to visit a lot. This makes me miss it. Also thank you for these rambles. As many of us are still in quarantine, it's hard to get out and talk with people and it's very isolating and lonely. This feels closer, like talking to a dear friend.

Lovely 🥰 Looking forward to getting cosy and listen to your out of lockdown adventures 😁 Happy Sunday indeed 💕

As the song goes "its hard to be lonely but it's the right thing to do"
