When Giles and Paula met Hot Ingrid (and the rest of the Neph Squad).

@UnTucked:

Side note: I always assumed "Hot Ingrid" was a random moniker… I was wrong! Good on ya, Reub!!!

As they say in (American) football- he outkicked his coverage on that one.

It's always nice to see good people having a fun time.

Or as we say in the uk…He's punching well above his weight 

[Seul]

Or as I say: he's a lucky fucking bastard!..

[Giles]

At the suggestion of @neph93 and Hottie we are at Vigeland Sculpture Park and Museum in Oslo.

Main attraction is this phallus….

Many of the sculptures showed signs of being ”handled”….

I refrained from photographing the naked men, that showed signs of similar fondling

Good call! If the weather is ok in Oslo today, go to try to eat & drink there:

As far as Hot Ingrid is concerned it is certainly a case of Beauty and the Beast. Of course, if any of you lot call her «Beast» there’ll be trouble.

Is that what we could call «patina» on the fondled areas?[emoji15]

weather looks great. seems like great fun and a good holiday. always thought it'd be rare to have sun up in norway..

also, yes. although i prefer to use the term "seen some mileage.."

It's rare to see Gilles so smily…

Having just spent four days with him, I can assure you it isn’t.

[Chris]

There was a lot of fishing, that usually seems to help with the smiling.

[JDelage]

Let me rephrase: I don’t recall having seen so many pics of Gilles smilling in such a short time. Clearly this trip must have been a lot of fun.

[Max Power]

Fantastic Pictures, Looks like you all had a blast. Norway is beautiful in summer (and without rain). I Need to come back…

[Matty123]

How come you didn’t keep any of those pollock? (Coalfish) are they out of season? And could you  please explain the maelstrom to me. I understand tides. I love on the tidal area of the Housatonic river here in CT. We have strong tidal pull here. But what’s this maelstrom stuff about?

[neph93]

@Matty123 The coalfish are delicious, I eat them all the time. It was G&P’s last day and we squeezed the fishing into a bit of time we had before their flight. We basically went straight to the airport with a brief stop to pick up bags. G&P couldn’t eat them and gutting and filleting was too time consuming.

The maelstrom is sometimes erroneously referred to as a whirlpool. It is actually made up of many whirlpools in motion. It is formed in a channel between two fjords. The sea floor of each fjord is at a different height so when the tide is going in or out the water either rushes in or rushes out in a very violent manner over the uneven sea bed. This causes extremely powerful, and conflicting currents.
