Isle Of View – Ciaran Laval

Pensively I announced to The High Council Of Dwarfins that I had to embark on a perlious mission to The Isle Of View in Second Life.

“Second Life?” pondered the woman sat next to me, “Is that still around?“. The females either side of me found this highly amusing, I just raised my eyebrows.

“The mission is perilous“, I announced, “Love Is in the air, everywhere I look around, Love is in the air, every sight and every sound“.

The lady stood to my left groaned and said “Will you please stop singing that bloody song!“.

With that I left the hall.

“Gwarda!” I shouted as I saw Gwarda Rockbeard, “I’m off on a Perilous mission to The Isle Of View in Second Life“.

“Why?” asked Gwarda.

“Love is in the air, In the whisper of the trees, Love is in the air, In the thunder of the sea“, I replied.

Gwarda frowned and went about her business.

Linden Lab have decided that Friday the 13th shall be a day of love this year, with a blog post of Valentine’s Day fun : Valentine’s Day Fun on the Isle of View – February 13th! Rumours that there will be camping and a host called Jason have been strenuously denied. Indeed Gray Of The Lab from San Francisco almost told me :

Love is in the air, Everywhere I look around, Love is in the air, Every sight and every sound.

The blog post informs us :

Come to the Isle of View on February 13th for some Pre-Valentine’s Day fun. Meet up with other Residents and enjoy all the romance that Isle of View has to offer – boat rides, fireworks, kissing booths – a treasure trove of memorable moments just waiting to be made with someone special.

Why February 13th? Because we believe in love, and there is still time to find a special someone for the big day.

If you’ve got a Valentine – bring them to the Isle of View.

If you’re currently looking for a Valentine – come to the Isle of View.

If you have several Valentines – well lucky you – bring them all to the Isle of View!

However I’m not actually buying their reasons for Friday being the day and a more realistic explanation is that :

I don’t care if Monday’s blue, Tuesday’s grey and Wednesday too, Thursday i don’t care about you, It’s Friday I’m in love.

The Isle Of View it has to be said is pink, very pink, with a hint of red.
