Blue Beard

Blue Beard

Today's classic tale is from the Blue Fairy Book, a collection of tales assembled and translated by Andrew Lang, published in 1889.

There was a man who had fine houses, both in town and country, a deal of silver and gold plate, embroidered furniture, and coaches gilded all over with gold. But this man was so unlucky as to have a blue beard, which made him so frightfully ugly that all the women and girls ran away from him.

One of his neighbors, a lady of quality, had two daughters who were perfect beauties. He desired of her one of them in marriage, leaving to her choice which of the two she would bestow on him. They would neither of them have him, and sent him backward and forward from one another, not being able to bear the thoughts of marrying a man who had a blue beard, and what besides gave them disgust and aversion was his having already been married to several wives, and nobody ever knew what became of them.

Blue Beard, to engage their affection, took them, with the lady their mother and three or four ladies of their acquaintance, with other young people of the neighborhood, to one of his country seats, where they stayed a whole week.

There was nothing then to be seen but parties of pleasure, hunting, fishing, dancing, mirth, and feasting. Nobody went to bed, but all passed the night in rallying and joking with each other. In short, everything succeeded so well that the youngest daughter began to think the master of the house not to have a beard so very blue, and that he was a mighty civil gentleman.

As soon as they returned home, the marriage was concluded. About a month afterward, Blue Beard told his wife that he was obliged to take a country journey for six weeks at least, about affairs of very great consequence, desiring her to divert herself in his absence, to send for her friends and acquaintances, to carry them into the country, if she pleased, and to make good cheer wherever she was.

“Here,” said he, “are the keys of the two great wardrobes, wherein I have my best furniture; these are of my silver and gold plate, which is not every day in use; these open my strong boxes, which hold my money, both gold and silver; these my caskets of jewels; and this is the master-key to all my apartments. But for this little one here, it is the key of the closet at the end of the great gallery on the ground floor. Open them all; go into all and every one of them, except that little closet, which I forbid you, and forbid it in such a manner that, if you happen to open it, there’s nothing but what you may expect from my just anger and resentment.”

She promised to observe, very exactly, whatever he had ordered; when he, after having embraced her, got into his coach and proceeded on his journey.

Her neighbors and good friends did not stay to be sent for by the new married lady, so great was their impatience to see all the rich furniture of her house, not daring to come while her husband was there, because of his blue beard, which frightened them. They ran through all the rooms, closets, and wardrobes, which were all so fine and rich that they seemed to surpass one another.

After that they went up into the two great rooms, where was the best and richest furniture; they could not sufficiently admire the number and beauty of the tapestry, beds, couches, cabinets, stands, tables, and looking-glasses, in which you might see yourself from head to foot; some of them were framed with glass, others with silver, plain and gilded, the finest and most magnificent ever were seen.

They ceased not to extol and envy the happiness of their friend, who in the meantime in no way diverted herself in looking upon all these rich things, because of the impatience she had to go and open the closet on the ground floor. She was so much pressed by her curiosity that, without considering that it was very uncivil to leave her company, she went down a little back staircase, and with such excessive haste that she had twice or thrice like to have broken her neck.

Coming to the closet-door, she made a stop for some time, thinking upon her husband’s orders, and considering what unhappiness might attend her if she was disobedient; but the temptation was so strong she could not overcome it. She then took the little key, and opened it, trembling, but could not at first see anything plainly, because the windows were shut. After some moments she began to perceive that the floor was all covered over with clotted blood, on which lay the bodies of several dead women, ranged against the walls. (These were all the wives whom Blue Beard had married and murdered, one after another.) She thought she should have died for fear, and the key, which she pulled out of the lock, fell out of her hand.

After having somewhat recovered her surprise, she took up the key, locked the door, and went upstairs into her chamber to recover herself; but she could not, she was so much frightened. Having observed that the key of the closet was stained with blood, she tried two or three times to wipe it off, but the blood would not come out; in vain did she wash it, and even rub it with soap and sand; the blood still remained, for the key was magical and she could never make it quite clean; when the blood was gone off from one side, it came again on the other.

Blue Beard returned from his journey the same evening, and said he had received letters upon the road, informing him that the affair he went about was ended to his advantage. His wife did all she could to convince him she was extremely glad of his speedy return.

Next morning he asked her for the keys, which she gave him, but with such a trembling hand that he easily guessed what had happened.

“What!” said he, “is not the key of my closet among the rest?”

“I must certainly have left it above upon the table,” said she.

“Fail not to bring it to me presently,” said Blue Beard.

After several goings backward and forward she was forced to bring him the key. Blue Beard, having very attentively considered it, said to his wife,

“How comes this blood upon the key?”

“I do not know,” cried the poor woman, paler than death.

“You do not know!” replied Blue Beard. “I very well know. You were resolved to go into the closet, were you not? Mighty well, madam; you shall go in, and take your place among the ladies you saw there.”

Upon this she threw herself at her husband’s feet, and begged his pardon with all the signs of true repentance, vowing that she would never more be disobedient. She would have melted a rock, so beautiful and sorrowful was she; but Blue Beard had a heart harder than any rock!

“You must die, madam,” said he, “and that presently.”

“Since I must die,” answered she (looking upon him with her eyes all bathed in tears), “give me some little time to say my prayers.”

“I give you,” replied Blue Beard, “half a quarter of an hour, but not one moment more.”

When she was alone she called out to her sister, and said to her:

“Sister Anne” (for that was her name), “go up, I beg you, upon the top of the tower, and look if my brothers are not coming over; they promised me that they would come to-day, and if you see them, give them a sign to make haste.”

Her sister Anne went up upon the top of the tower, and the poor afflicted wife cried out from time to time:

“Anne, sister Anne, do you see anyone coming?”

And sister Anne said:

“I see nothing but the sun, which makes a dust, and the grass, which looks green.”

In the meanwhile Blue Beard, holding a great sabre in his hand, cried out as loud as he could bawl to his wife:

“Come down instantly, or I shall come up to you.”

“One moment longer, if you please,” said his wife, and then she cried out very softly, “Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see anybody coming?”

And sister Anne answered:

“I see nothing but the sun, which makes a dust, and the grass, which is green.”

“Come down quickly,” cried Blue Beard, “or I will come up to you.”

“I am coming,” answered his wife; and then she cried, “Anne, sister Anne, dost thou not see anyone coming?”

“I see,” replied sister Anne, “a great dust, which comes on this side here.”

“Are they my brothers?”

“Alas! no, my dear sister, I see a flock of sheep.”

“Will you not come down?” cried Blue Beard

“One moment longer,” said his wife, and then she cried out: “Anne, sister Anne, dost thou see nobody coming?”

“I see,” said she, “two horsemen, but they are yet a great way off.”

“God be praised,” replied the poor wife joyfully; “they are my brothers; I will make them a sign, as well as I can, for them to make haste.”

Then Blue Beard bawled out so loud that he made the whole house tremble. The distressed wife came down, and threw herself at his feet, all in tears, with her hair about her shoulders.

“This signifies nothing,” says Blue Beard; “you must die”; then, taking hold of her hair with one hand, and lifting up the sword with the other, he was going to take off her head. The poor lady, turning about to him, and looking at him with dying eyes, desired him to afford her one little moment to recollect herself.

“No, no,” said he, “recommend thyself to God,” and was just ready to strike...

At this very instant there was such a loud knocking at the gate that Blue Beard made a sudden stop. The gate was opened, and presently entered two horsemen, who, drawing their swords, ran directly to Blue Beard. He knew them to be his wife’s brothers, one a dragoon, the other a musketeer, so that he ran away immediately to save himself; but the two brothers pursued so close that they overtook him before he could get to the steps of the porch, when they ran their swords through his body and left him dead. The poor wife was almost as dead as her husband, and had not strength enough to rise and welcome her brothers.

Blue Beard had no heirs, and so his wife became mistress of all his estate. She made use of one part of it to marry her sister Anne to a young gentleman who had loved her a long while; another part to buy captains commissions for her brothers, and the rest to marry herself to a very worthy gentleman, who made her forget the ill time she had passed with Blue Beard.

Jon Thomas is a terrifying 22 year old hermit with fingernails that branch out like a morbid tree. His skin is transparent, and it's rumored that if you can ever sneak a glance at him in his decrepit cabin on the shores of lake berryessa you can see a alien baby dewlling deep within his huntchback. His horrifying screams can be heard over the lake at night. A pair of demon vultures circle the cabin at night, watching for intruders, so beware.

Actually, very little of this is true. The hunchback baby, for example, is very untrue. The fingernails, however, is disturbingly true. Jon Thomas is the half brother of Chris Saito. He plays guitar for The Phoenix Foundation, and the bass player for Living in Disguise. He is a very nice young man, except for the fingernails.

In partnership with their local hospital and CPPW-funded health department, Kwik Trip convenience stores, headquartered in La Crosse, Wisconsin, joined the 500 Club, highlighting healthier alternatives to customers in all twenty-one of their La Crosse county stores. All 113,758 La Crosse County customers can now easily find convenient, affordable healthy options, including fresh fruit that costs less than a bag of chips. Kwik Trip saw their efforts as so successful that they've chosen to bring the 500 Club to thirty more stores in neighboring Minnesota and Iowa. Kwik Trip Retail Food Service Director Paul Servais explains, "We heard from our customers that they were looking for more healthy options. We heard some people say not to go to convenience stores because there is nothing healthy to eat in them. We knew at Kwik Trip we had healthy options. This was a great way to get that message out."

La Crosse's Farm2School program is helping Wisconsin kids eat Wisconsin food. Over 5,000 students are eating and learning how to cook locally-grown foods including cabbage, beets, wild rice, potatoes and winter squash, grown by local Wisconsin farmers, and prepared locally instead of being shipped in from California, Florida or even Chile. Local food processing facility Wisconsin Innovation Kitchen pre-processes the food to reduce labor costs in the school kitchens, and had to add a third shift to keep up with the new demand. 8,500 cups of fresh fruit and veggies were served on kids' lunch plates by the end of 2010, and money is being put back into the local economy - plus helping make sure those kids grow up healthy and strong.

Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ) Oslofilialen (Norway) XS2A (Berlin Group)

Authorization Endpoint:
Token Endpoint:
Types: PSD2
Passport :

BIC query parameter

LUXHUB is a multi-tenant platform and among the ASPSP customers hosted on the platform there are banks that have multiple entities published under the same API. In order to accommodate such scenario, an additional query parameter Bank Identification Code (BIC) is added to all endpoints.

The value used for this parameter needs to match exactly the BIC code of the entity your application is trying to access. Furthermore, you need to have a valid PSD2 passport for the country where the respective entity resides. Please see the API page in the portal for more details.

Extended transaction history

As required by the EBA RTS on SCA and CSC, there should be additional SCA performed whenever a transactions history for more than 90 days is requested by a TPP. Berlin Group specifications do not provide dedicated handling of this scenario, whereas STET standard describes it in details and proposes a solution.

LUXHUB decided to implement the same solution as for the STET standard for the Berlin Group standard and offer it as a value addition to its customers.

The AISP will be able to ask for an extended transaction history with the very first access token retrieved after a token request. In this case, a single SCA will be required and used to get the token and to ask for an extended transaction history. Any further extended transaction history request will be considered as out of scope of this SCA.
If the access token scope cannot cover the request (case of extended transaction history request for instance):

  • The request will be rejected with HTTP403 with an error equal to insufficient_scope.
  • The refresh token will be revoked so the request could be replayed once a new token, having the right scope, would have been requested and provided.
  • The new refresh token will be valid up to 90 days.

The additional scope to be used for this case in Berlin Group implementations is AIS_EXT - this is additional scope and not replacing the regular one. For STET implementation this same scope is named extended_transaction_history.

Pop to Flow in an Open CTI Integration

Hi, we've installed an Open CTI Integration app (Aircall) but would like to be able to screenpop an Account page based on the Dialled Number when it cannot identify the Caller.

Presumably we can somehow use the "Pop to flow" option in the Softphone Layout in Call Center, but there is nothing we can find that tells us how we can pull in any variables from the call into the Flow, so we can only create a "dumb" Screen Flow starting from zero. Ideally we want to:
- Grab the Dialled Number
- Do a Lookup on Accounts to find a Record with that Phone Number
- Screenpop that Account

Does anybody know how we can do this? Using Flow, or any other means?

AbhishekAbhishek (Salesforce Developers)

Please feel to reach out to the accelerator team who can give you the idea of how you can implement according to your business requirement if you have the premier success plan.

Please find the details on how to request for an accelerator:https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=000337601&type=1&mode=1

Otherwise, I would request you to reach out to your Account Executive If you wish to upgrade to Premier Support please contact your Account Executive.

David Zhu 🔥David Zhu 🔥
Hi Chris,
I am facing the same technical issue. What is you solution?  CTI app vendor told use they don't knwo how to do it. :-(

I found this and just don't know where to put the code.

Chris McGonigalChris McGonigal
Hi David,

Unfortunately we didn't resolve this issue. We ended up going to another CTI App provider (Connex One), who were more willing to work with us to provide a more tailored solution.

It might be possible using the method in the article you mentioned, and I'm sure there must a way to do it, but I'm not sure this is possible by simply using the Softphone layout in the Call Centre configuration along with some Flow parameters. Sounds like more coding is required here.

I also never got around to reaching out to the accelerator team as suggested by Abhishek - we ended up switching providers fairly soon after the original post.

Hope you manage to find a way around it... if you do manage to do find anything else please post an update here so that I can get closure :)

Wartime Rations – Day Thirteen

With enough bacon saved for tomorrow’s breakfast, we finished up our meat ration tonight with lamb chops. I’d also saved enough cheese to make scalloped potatoes, so it was all very rich and delicious.

Lamb chops

Pudding was a special request repeat of the bread pudding from last week.  Once again I used the recipe from The 1940s Experiment Website. Both pudding and website are fabulous, so please check them out.

Bread pudding 2

Given that my two week experiment eating wartime rations is coming to an end, here are some of Anne’s thoughts about VE Day and the wind down of the war in Britain.

From Anne:

Well, there we were on VE Day: church bells rang, hooters hooted, and loudspeakers belted out the song of the day – ‘I’m going to get lit up when the lights go up in London – I’m going to get so lit up, I’ll be visible for miles’ and the cheering and dancing went on for hours.

But there was still the Far East and the Yellow Peril to be dealt with, so after the parties it was back to work, and back to wartime food AND rationing. The Atlantic was as far as possible cleared of German subs and minefields so we could have started importing more, but by now the country was so impoverished that we couldn’t do much more than continue importing the same wartime amounts of staples – tea, sugar, etc.

The islolationists in USA had kept them out of hostilities until Pearl Harbour, though we’d had the benefit (huh!) of Lend-Lease without which I have to admit, we probably would have been starved of food and armaments. The shock of the bill for the L-L supplies came shortly after the end of the European fighting, so poor Mr Atlee, with all his plans for tremendous social changes, had to drop many of them. Did you know we didn’t finish paying off that gargantuan debt till about 2004? However, he managed to give us the Health Service.

The Peace of Wild Things

It’s been a hellish few months for the world.  It feels like every day there’s an even worse story on the news. At times it’s all too easy to be overwhelmed by feelings of grief and despair over current world events.

Growing up in Glasgow, I can remember my mother’s concerns when the world experienced its frequent periods of madness  – especially when they occurred during the summer months – as they reminded her of that summer of 1939 when things spiralled out of control.

I have to admit that over the past few weeks I’ve started to fear that we’re barrelling towards something we can’t stop. So when I’m feeling overwhelmed with bad news, I read this poem – The Peace of Wild Things – by American poet and novelist Wendell Berry.

It helps me.  I hope it helps you too.

The Peace of Wild Things – Wendell Berry

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives
with forethought of grief.
I come into the presence of still water
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light.  For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

4 thoughts on “The Peace of Wild Things

  1. A lovely piece. I find heading outdoors when something is bothering me or upsetting me always helps. In 1848 Søren Kierkegaard wrote: “Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.” And John Muir said: “Keep close to Nature’s heart … and break clear away, once in a while, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” John Muir (1838 -1914). In Isaiah there is a verse that reads: “and thou shalt be like a watered garden”. That’s one that I love too. Where would we be without nature?

  2. Beautiful. We do this too. Great poem. Beautiful photo. Many hugs…. you got me dreaming and thinking about my mom and her girlfriend, who did just that when climbing up Esja in Rejkyavik at midnight! anna

Sapphire Pavilion: a great read

A couple weeks ago I finished reading Sapphire Pavilion. It’s a really fast-paced, gripping story and I’m delighted that I was asked to review it on Ascroft, eh?.

This is what the publisher says about Sapphire Pavilion: “Steve Stilwell’s former sapphire pavilion coverNavy JAG Corps buddy Ric Stokes has been jailed for possession of heroin in Vietnam. He was found in the same room with his traveling companion Ryan Eversall, dead of an overdose and in the company of a prostitute. Steve knows his friend is a straight arrow. Was he set up? If so, for what reason? Steve travels to Ho Chi Minh City in search of the truth.
In no time Steve is targeted by the people who framed his friend. A beautiful young American businesswoman insinuates her way into the case. Can she really help, or is she just a dangerous distraction? Ric and Ryan came to Vietnam in search of an Air Force transport plane that disappeared in 1968. The pilot was Ryan’s father. Before the heroin bust, they had located the wreckage. Ryan’s notebook, which Steve manages to obtain, spells out the exact location. Ryan’s widow has given Steve’s associate Casey another piece of valuable evidence, a file labeled “Sapphire Pavilion.” Someone is willing to go to any lengths to steal both the notebook and the file.
From Virginia and Texas to DC and Vietnam, powerful, all-seeing forces with unlimited resources are determined to bury the truth about Sapphire Pavilion. But they have grossly underestimated Steve Stilwell and his associate Casey, a former Army pilot who lost her leg in a helo accident. And the ability to inspire loyalty wherever you go can come in handy when danger lurks behind every corner.”

I really enjoyed this story and was engrossed in it from the first page. The intricate, fascinating plot deftly uses ‘what if’ to look back at a mission that might have happened during the Vietnam War era and convincingly creates the story from this imaginary incident. There’s great use of believable coincidence involving a character employed in the Foreign Affairs office to tie some ends together, allowing the story to continue to its conclusion without bureaucracy derailing the momentum. I was also intrigued by one thread of the story that is wrapped up near the end of the book in a way that the main character, Steve Stilwell, is not aware of. The reader knows that it is resolved but the main character does not.

I really liked the main characters in this story and look forward to reading future books in the series. I also intend to go back and read the first book, The Siegel Dispositions, as I enjoyed this book so much. Each of the trio of characters involved in the investigation is distinctive and is someone the reader can empathise with. Steve Stilwell is a hardworking lawyer who must find a way to balance his career and his family life. His new legal associate, Casey, is an independent, likeable woman with an unusual background. And even though Stilwell’s secretary, Margaret, takes a backseat most of the time, the character is a notable presence in the law office and the reader has a sense of her personality.

The settings are very vivid and I felt the heat and chaos in Ho Chi Minh City, and soaked up the bureaucratic atmosphere of Washington, D.C. and the small town aura of Texas and Virginia. As well as the physical settings in this story, there is also a less tangible one: the military environment. The camaraderie, as well as the work and life ethos of the US military world, is well portrayed and gives the reader an insight into what this way of life is like.

As I said earlier, this fast-paced mystery and thriller gripped me from the beginning. I enjoyed every moment of it and look forward to reading more from this author. I recommend it to readers who enjoy mysteries and thrillers, as well as anyone who enjoys a good story.

Readers can learn more about the author of this novel, David E. Grogan, by visiting his website, Facebook and Goodreads pages, as well as following him on Twitter. Sapphire Pavilion is available online at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

About David E. Grogan:  David E. Grogan was born in Rome, New York, and was Sapphire-Dave-Groganraised in Cleveland, Ohio. After graduating from the College of William & Mary in Virginia with a B.B.A. in Accounting, he began working for the accounting firm Arthur Andersen & Co., in Houston, Texas, as a Certified Public Accountant. He left Arthur Andersen in 1984 to attend the University of Virginia School of Law in Charlottesville, Virginia, graduating in 1987. He earned his Masters in International Law from The George Washington University Law School and is a licensed attorney in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Grogan served on active duty in the United States Navy for over 26 years as a Navy Judge Advocate. He is now retired, but during the course of his Navy career, he prosecuted and defended court-martial cases, travelled to capitals around the world, lived abroad in Japan, Cuba and Bahrain, and deployed to the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf onboard the nuclear powered aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. His experiences abroad and during the course of his career influence every aspect of his writing. Sapphire Pavilion, his second novel, follows his debut novel, The Siegel Dispositions. Grogan’s current home is in Savoy, Illinois, where he lives with his wife of 33 years and their dog, Marley. He has three children.

Tuesday, March 02, 2021

 This morning Steve gets to see the Gastro team at the hospital.

He's been experiencing a mild flare up over the past couple of weeks, so I'm damn relieved his appointment has been bumped up to today.

I won't rest easy until I hear how it goes!

So Steve... ring me when ya get out.

I'm feeling keen to start another table runner today.  I really want to get heaps done so my stock up really UP.  That way when I'm ready to start markets again I don't have to stress out about not having enough stock.

Seeing Bex at the market on Saturday made me wish I was there too.  But nope, not yet.

I have too much going on to be adding that to me schedule as well.

Stew fixed the old clothes airer last night, but it needs something more to keep it together.  I've got clothes drying on it right now... in the sunroom.  We are supposed to get rain for the next few days.  We will see about that.

Rain was forecast for yesterday and I swear we got all of 5 drops.

Now, just out of interest and to share, who watches heaps of baking videos on Facebook and You Tube?  I often watch them, thinking:  "Oh, I'd love to try that".

Well, watch this:

ABOVE:  Disappointing eh?  I have tried one or two things from those videos, and yeah, no joy at all.  And there I was thinking it was me doing it wrong.
Right, that's me for now.  I'll catch ya later.

11.24 am:  And Steve has reported in.  He's going to be monitored a bit closer for the time being.  He's had blood tests and has to have another colonoscopy in the next couple of months.  But hopefully this latest flare up settles down without him having to go back on steroids, or any thing else.

So, I'm kinda relieved he's at least been seen and they are aware of his on going condition.

I'm in the sewing room...

ABOVE:  A sneak peek... though now that I can see it from a different perspective, I might be taking that green fabric out.  It's jarring on me eyes.

3.10 pm:  And I've actually not worked on that runner any more today.  I just ran outta steam.
So I've been watching videos instead.

Then I get this sent to me:

ABOVE:  These two ran into each other just now while Amanda was picking up her kids from school.  Awww, so neat to see them together.

5.15 pm: It's card night in Cambridge.  I must go... as I have the Winner's Trophy.  I don't actually feel like going anywhere, lately all I really want to do is stay home.
When you don't sleep well at night, it really F*#ks up your entire day.
I haven't slept well in MONTHS.

So... I have put on me face, and am ready to leave in an hour.  Stew's dinner is also sorted out, he just has to shove it in the oven to warm up.
It's a Chicken Pasta Bake.

9.30 pm:  Home from Cambridge.  Quite a subdued group tonight.  I think we are all just tired... for various reasons. So, not gunna be doing much now, just chill with Stew till bedtime.
Oh yes, I was Runner Up tonight.  So I've got anther trophy.  Which means I have to attend the next card night. 😉😊

  1. Chris I do lots of baking, I have never bought a cake/slice/biscuit in my life so have made heaps of cakes etc from online but never had one that was a complete disaster. When I get back from gym will check out the video. A great sight for easy cooking is recipetineats.com Lots of easy stuff and great notes and videos. Marie

  2. The Horror! I like watching those videos. I have always been intrigued by them. No more!

    One of my Favorite TED TALKS is where a guy engages with an email scammer. He just keeps emailing back and forth to see how far the "scammer" will go. It's so funny! Do you ever listen to TED TALKS? I should listen to more of them They are short, intelligent, and interesting. Good for puzzles or when watching TV is not practical.

  3. I've never watched any of those videos! I do watch 'real' home cooks and am at the moment making Chicken Marsala from Kitchen Sanctuary. All of her recipes look great and so far it's looking good!

  4. I love watching those crap videos and working out what would work - pretty well none of them. Apparently you can grow all sort of veges from scraps as well - yeah right!!

    Love the new colours and agree with you about the green - it takes over.

    Have you thought about doing a penguin runner along the lines of your gnome ones?

  5. Kiwionholidays3:01 PM

    So pleased Steve was seen and assessed, Great he is on the radar and good news too ,,,,the colonoscopy isnt on the urgent list eg in the next few days ,

    So pleased too him and Bex n the lil guys. Live so close by now,

    Lacy n the others close by too means heaps of happy days n all

    Love the idea of the scones sounds like a must do plan for the ones here

    Take care n stay safe x
    Cheers 🥂

  6. Anonymous4:05 PM

    Honestly seeing your kids getting on together is the best thing ever, love your work. Jo

  7. It sucks that Steve has to go through this at his age, I hope things are okay with him. So glad he has a loving wife and mum to take care of him.

  8. Wonky Houses Everywhere!
    So - I have not done a single jigsaw puzzle in all my adult life. Until about a month ago. Now - I have had one going ever since I started. And because I am such a dork - I googled tips and tricks and such. One thing people recommend is sorting the pieces by shape. As in 1 knob, 2 knobs, 3 knobs, and 4 knobs. Then you lay them out in tidy little rows with the knobs all pointing the same direction. I want a "name" for each piece shape so in my head I think "Oh - I need a person shaped piece" (1 knob). Well, so far. I have a name for 1 knob (person) and 3 knobs (WONKY HOUSES). I just thought "this looks a bit like a house.... a Wonky House!".

    1. I sort them into edges first... then by predominant colour. Then as I go along, I also sort them into shapes... but not until I need to, like when it's getting harder to find the right piece. I hope your system works for ya.

    2. Oh Ya - I only do the shape sorting at the end. But I needed names, for the pieces. And Wonky House is definitely one of the shapes! Edges First! Always!

  9. I'm not sleeping either... it's crap. I wake for a couple of hours during the night then get up for work at 5.45am 🙄 .makes for long days.

  10. Anonymous1:35 AM

    Chris - I've been in a blue funk lately myself and I am done with it! I have to force myself to do stuff. Do the cleaning, do the cooking, do the laundry, do the shopping, do the, do the, do the...it is like I can't be bothered with it all right now. But one must eat...so I cook, one must have clean clothes, so I wash the clothes, etc. Boring!! I think part of my problem is that I have been tied to my house for a year now due to covid. I have had my 1st vaccine and I am waiting on my 2nd...then I will feel free to venture out and hopefully change my blue mood.

    Whatever it is...I hope your mood changes soon and that you are able to sleep better at night, that must be horrible not to be able to sleep through the night. I do not have that issue...my issue is that I awake before 6 a.m. every-single-day and can't go back to sleep....that makes for a long day...but we plug along...

    Peace and better days for you Chris, are my wishes for you and for me and heck, for us all, especially your Steve and his issues. I am glad that the doctors are going to keep a closer eye on him. I know people with gut issues and I am sorry that Steve must endure this.

    XO, KY Girl

  11. I like that the trophy made you go haha. Forced socialization. Sometimes it is good for us.

Virtual team building activities to level-up your remote team

Written by Lily-Rae Hewitt Jasilek, Digital Marketing and PR Executive at UpSkill Digital

Looking to strengthen your remote team? Seeking better team collaboration? Virtual team building is a fantastic and easy way to boost team productivity, communication, trust and cohesion.

Look. Remote work is great. It allows for flexibility, diversity of ideas and qualifications, and more efficient time use. But what about the emotional connection that teams of co-located companies form over water-cooler chats and lunches?

Virtual work teams that lack a strong bonding can leave employees feeling undervalued. It can hamper productivity and make it difficult for team members to contribute effectively. According to the Harvard Business Review, “close work friendships boost employee satisfaction by 50%.” It further states that “people with a best friend at work are seven times more likely to engage fully in their work”. What does this mean for remote teams? Simple. Virtual team building is essential.

In this article, I have shared 15 virtual team building activities and games that can help you build a close-knit remote team. That’s not all? I have also added some tools, tactics, and strategies that you will need for implementing virtual team-building exercises successfully.

Virtual team building is a method to bring remote teams together and create a work environment that mimics a co-located office environment. It allows the entire team to become familiar with one another and create meaningful relationships that leave all members feeling more valued and satisfied.

The physical distance of remote work can quickly turn into emotional distance, so it’s important to create a comfortable team culture that virtual workers can rely on.

Virtual team building consists of several strategies, games and activities that are meant to bring more human interaction to virtual work. Strategies include ice-breaker questions as well as video and non-video based games and activities. These strategies lead to closer-knit teams and heightened levels of collaboration.

Virtual team building not only improves team effectiveness, but can also induce laughter and comic relief to the workplace.

To start, I have listed 7 virtual team building ideas that require a video element.

Most of these require the entire team to be online at the same time. While this may be difficult for virtual work teams that are spread across multiple time zones, many of these activities allow team members to take videos and upload them to a workspace channel where everyone can view them.

A study by found that “87% of remote workers feel more connected through the use of video conferencing”. So if you have the opportunity to use video while team building — do it!

I have listed 8 non-video virtual team building ideas that are great for online teams who are in different time zones or can’t meet at the same time. Many of these activities will leave those who work remotely feeling valued and treated. One of them is also sure to prove adventurous!

Ready? Let’s start.

1. Virtual Team Meetings

Team meetings are essential for any organisation, whether it is location-based or remote. While team meetings are often focused around work, it is important that virtual work teams use them as a tool for building team cohesion.

Why? Because team members who work remotely aren’t able to take group coffee breaks or lunch breaks like those in co-located teams. To do this exercise, conduct a virtual meeting at the end of each month and ask three questions to each team member:

  • The one thing that has been going great lately?
  • One thing that can be improved?
  • One thing that’s been going on with them personally?

Be sure that the team leader or manager also answers these questions, as it creates the feeling that all team members are equal.

Such questions not only let employees discuss and improve work, but it gives virtual team members a chance to share a bit about their current lives and empathize with others on the team.

Make sure that the entire team is using the video element of video conferencing. That way everyone can read each other’s expressions, feel present, and get a true sense of what is being said.

Give employees time to prepare beforehand so they can give some thought to their answers. It may also be beneficial to set a time limit for each employee so that the meeting progresses forward and stays focused.

Fun tip: Suggest that each employee bring coffee, tea or another beverage of choice to the online meeting so it feels more like a coffee break.

2. Live Remote Office

A live remote office space gives remote employees the office feel without physically being in an office.

Here’s how it works:

At the beginning of the day, the first team member to clock in starts a video chat that any team member can join. As other members come online, they can join the video and essentially join the workspace.

The video chat room is a mimic of the office — It is a place where all members are working diligently on their own tasks.

The benefit? Distributed team members get to see each other hard at work and are inspired to feel focused and productive. Virtual workers can have difficulty getting into the workflow or feeling motivated. A virtual office, however, gives employees a constant reminder that work and productivity are their focus.

3. A Peek Into Each Other’s Homes

This virtual team-building exercise requires that team members virtually open their homes to one another. Think House Hunters or MTV Cribs. Jesse Sussman at MuseumHack thinks this is a “hilarious” way to get to know your remote team members.

Each team member will take a short video showing off their home and some of their favourite things. This activity allows team members to get to know one another on a more personal basis, and can lead to feelings of welcomeness and friendship.

This game may be better suited for small teams, but it’s surely a great way to get the personal feels going.

4. Team Building Slack Extensions — Donut

Donut is a Slack extension that can take virtual team building to a new level.

Donut pairs up team members to converse with one another every 1–4 weeks. These virtual meetings can last anywhere from 15–30 minutes and the aim is to bond employees on a one-on-one basis through non-work related conversations.

Want to make it even more effective? Virtual team members that live in the same city can opt to meet up for lunch or coffee instead of conducting a video call.

Donut makes distributed team-building simple and can create some of those productivity-boosting relationships that I mentioned in the beginning of this article.

5. Capture Important Company Events

One of the downfalls of distributed teams is that virtual team members are unable to attend all company events. This can leave virtual team members feeling left out, and can also make it difficult to see how their work is contributing to the company.

How can you fix this? Take videos of company events and post them on the employee channel.

For example: Say your company is going to set up a booth at an event with a goal to obtain more clients and connections. Take a video of the event or provide a live video showing virtual team members what is going on.

If you achieve a large success or make a great partnership at the event, be sure to celebrate it on the video and congratulate contributing team members on their hard work. This will allow employees to see the work and progress that is taking place in the company. It also brings an element of excitement and reward to the remote workplace, and can boost team morale.

This strategy doesn’t just apply to large work events. You can provide a post-call debrief with a client, a video recap of an in-person meeting, or make a video outlining important changes that are taking place within the company.

Videos are a great way to connect your team with the company’s goals and objectives as well as reminding team members why they do the work that they do. It also keeps the whole team up to speed, which is beneficial for productivity and communication.

6. The Deserted Island Scenario

Many of us played a game similar to this in school growing up. In this virtual team building game, team members are given the scenario that they are stranded on a deserted island with seven objects, but they can only choose three. Make these objects as obscure and strategic as possible so that members are challenged to really think and plan.

Then split the team into groups and allow them to collaborate on which items they want to choose. Once all collaborations have finished, get onto a team video chat and discuss the results.

Sounds fun, right? Examples of items are a bag of fruit and vegetable seeds, a pocket knife, a 100 ft rope, a bedsheet, a bucket, 2 litres of kerosene, a lighter, and so on.

Activities like this naturally make team members see each other as teammates and can create pride, healthy competition, and excitement within the team. Such games also demonstrate how working together can yield better results, and can help virtual workers learn how to collaborate in a virtual setting.

7. Movie Night

When team members are able to come together for a non-work related purpose, they tend to relax and open up more. Hosting a movie night every so often is a great way to get the team together to do something fun outside of the virtual office.

You may be wondering:

“How do we do this when we live in different cities?”

Stream the movie through a video conference call and keep an instant messaging chat box open so team members can comment and make remarks during the movie.Experiences like this give remote employees something to bond over and joke about later on. Plus it forces team members to take a little downtime and relax.

8. Coffee Session

This strategy is a great way to show employees that you value their hard work. Virtual team members rarely get to experience the office perks of company-provided lunches, coffee, and team get togethers.

How does a coffee session change that?

Each employee will be sent a small gift card to a coffee shop in their area or their favourite coffee shop. Employees are then encouraged to get out of their home office and work remotely in a new upbeat environment for the day. Each employee will snap a photo of themselves working at the coffee shop and will post it to the team chat group.

This strategy can also be used for virtual meetings, which is a lot of fun.

Team members designate a time to virtually meet while each of them is at their chosen coffee shop. This makes it feel as if a team meeting is being conducted at a specific location outside of the “office” and can let remote employees feel some of the perks that office employees often get.

9. Joint Calendar

Employee calendars typically include work events and deadlines.

But — What if work calendars included more than work related information?

Remote employees often miss out on the chance to chit-chat about personal matters with other team members, such as family, personal events, and hobbies outside of work.

What if work calendars allowed team members to add personal events and goals to the agenda as well?

For example: Monday’s list of tasks and deadlines may conclude with something like, “Marissa’s kid’s first day at nursery” or Saturday may include “John’s family outing to the lake!”

There are several app options out there like Eventbot Calendar that have turned this joint calendar idea into a real thing.

Team members can communicate personal messages of encouragement or congratulations, and may even realize that they have more in common than they thought. It also lets people know when team members will be unavailable, which is beneficial for managing communication.

10. Send gifts

Sounds pricey? It doesn’t have to be.

Facilitators can set a gift price limit and assign each team member a person to send a gift to. This can be arranged during the Christmas holidays or just for good fun.

Even better, for teams that are dispersed internationally, encourage team members to buy something that is specific to their country and culture. This will not only make the gift choosing and receiving unique, but it will provide a little bit of insight into the cultural differences that exist within the team.

Gift-giving not only gives employees something to look forward to, but it allows team members to bond and feel thankful to one another.

11. A Random Slack Channel

Is your team using Slack or something similar to communicate? Be sure to create a channel that is dedicated solely to random conversations and sharing.

Employees can share things like quotes, stories, and photos of their animals. This naturally provides teams with conversation starters and allows teammates to get to know each other’s personalities and personal lives.

It also allows teams to bond without having to delegate time to virtual team building. Think of it as a team-building activity that employees have constant access to.

12. Personal Facts Guessing Game

The personal facts guessing game is a great way to learn one another’s interests outside of work.

Here’s how it works: A sheet with a list of personal facts is sent to each team member. Next to each personal fact, there is an empty column where each employee will guess which team member the fact belongs to. Not only can this icebreaker game be hilariously funny, but it is a great way to develop team cohesion and camaraderie.

Once all guesses have been submitted, an answer key will be provided so that team members can see how well they guessed.

This activity can also take place on a group video chat.

The facilitator will have the sheet open on their computer and will share their screen while employees try to guess the answers. As each answer is guessed, the facilitator can fill in the empty column.

13. Picture Sharing

Don’t have much time for team bonding at the moment? No problem.

Picture sharing bonds the team with little effort. It can facilitate laughter and surprising responses that will leave employees feeling happy and connected.

In picture sharing set aside designated time, perhaps at the beginning of each meeting, for a team member to share one personal photo that is unrelated to work. This photo can contain pets, hobbies, gadgets, family members etc. Then have the team member explain the photo.

As I’ve said before, allowing team members to share part of their personal lives makes teamwork more fun and can bring a new element of friendship to the workplace.

14. Outdoor Scavenger Hunt

Remember the fun and adventurous activity I mentioned earlier?

Welcome to outdoor scavenger hunts.

Scavenger hunts aren’t just for co-located teams. Online teams can participate in them too!

Here’s how: Create virtual teams and send each team an identical list of tasks to complete. Team members can then divide the tasks amongst themselves and stay connected while on the hunt through instant messaging and speaking on apps like WhatsApp. Each task completion must be accompanied by a photo of the team member completing it. Have all teams submit their photos to the company chat group.

Tasks can include: Getting a stranger to do a yoga pose with you, taking a photo of your reflection in something other than a mirror or window, wearing a funny hat throughout each task, and so on.

You can create the scavenger hunt yourself, or you can use an app like GooseChase to facilitate it.

Bringing laughter to the remote workplace can be challenging, especially when team members aren’t familiar with one another. By adding comic relief to the team not only will your team enjoy work more, but team members will feel more relatable to one another.

Similar to the Deserted Island Scenario, scavenger hunts allow team members to collaborate with one another, while also letting them delegate tasks and utilise each other’s strengths and skills. Collaboration on fun tasks can also boost team spirit!

15. Meet In Person

Want to really bond with your team?

Plan a team meetup!

Team meetups may be more costly, but the networking, team cohesion, and business ideas that can result from them are priceless. A team meetup can entail a small weekend in a central location, or it can be a large event or trip that all employees get to embark on.

Giving team members the chance to communicate in person with their virtual coworkers is a great way to boost team spirit and make team members feel a sense of community. As mentioned earlier, employee productivity increases when an employee has a friend at work.

For internationally distributed team members, cultural differences can be difficult to understand or grasp, however meeting in person can change that and make your team stronger than ever.

It is also beneficial for the managers and owners of the company, as they are able to better grasp a sense of who their employees are, and will make it easy to start conversations when work is back to normal.

Whether your team is partially remote or fully remote, virtual team building is essential in building a strong foundation for your company.

A study by TeamBonding states that “65% of remote employees report that they have never had a team building session”.

What does this mean?

This means a lot of companies are failing to do an easy task that can have massive benefits.

For employees:

Virtual team building creates a support system for remote members. It also improves the onboarding process by making new team members feel welcomed and excited. Many of the games listed above give teams a chance to collaborate on tasks, which is essential for innovation, productivity, and efficiency. Collaborating and problem-solving is also a great way to build an atmosphere of trust between team members, meaning stronger relationships and higher employee satisfaction.

For leaders and managers:

Team building is not only enjoyable for employees, but it’s fun for you too. Through virtual team building games and activities, you are able to better understand each employee’s strengths and weaknesses. This makes managing and delegating tasks more efficient. You are also able to build a relationship with each employee and learn what each employee needs from you as a leader.

Virtual team building doesn’t require much, but there are a few things you will need.

Designate a leader to facilitate the team-building exercises, such as a project or team manager. This person should encourage team members to participate and should communicate clearly the tasks and activities that will take place. They will be responsible for managing the tasks and events that will take place.

Set aside dedicated time for virtual team building. It is important that each member gives their undivided attention during team building activities so that members don’t come off as uninterested or uninvolved.

Considering that virtual face-to-face contact is essential to many of the activities that I have listed above, it is important that you get a tool that allows you to screen share and collaborate with team members. That way, everyone can be present and contribute to virtual meetings.

Remote teams may not get the same face-to-face contact that collocated office employees get, but that doesn’t mean they have to be disconnected from one another.

Bit.AI reports that “97% of employees and executives believe lack of alignment within a team impacts the outcome of a task or project.”

So you see, bonding is essential to form a cohesive team!

Virtual team bonding increases productivity, efficiency and collaboration within remote teams. It makes employees feel connected and valued, which in turn makes them highly dedicated to their specific tasks and the organization in general.

Team building activities allow virtual team leaders and managers to become familiar with each employee’s talents and skills, making for more efficient task delegation.

Managing remote teams can sometimes be tough for virtual team leaders. Want to improve the way you run your remote team?

Kidnappings for settling accounts between drug traffickers

The Security Forces have released four people in recent months in similar operations

Since last summer, both the National Police and the Civil Guard have intervened in different cases of kidnapping between drug gangs for settling accounts. In July, the Civil Guard dismantled a network of drug traffickers that operated between the Marina Alta and the Costa del Sol and that even kidnapped two of its members, believing that they had stolen a shipment of 400 kilos of hashish. In reality, the drugs had been intervened by the Local Police of Benissa. A few months later, in Catral, the Civil Guard dismantled another organization dedicated to drug trafficking and which kidnapped a man who had deceived them by selling them a 90-kilo bundle of hashish that later turned out to be clay. Likewise, in Torrevieja, the National Police arrested the alleged members of a network of drug traffickers of Swedish origin who kidnapped a man to force his brother to “cook” cocaine for them. The man had chemical knowledge for the cocaine adulteration process, but when the alleged drug traffickers requested his services, he no longer wanted to continue dedicating himself to this activity. The last case was that of this young man of Italian nationality who tried to pay 3,000 euros in counterfeit bills to acquaintances in exchange for drugs. When they realized the deception, they tied him to a chair and began to attack him so that he would pay them.
