100 HIVE GIVEAWAY.png

To celebrate my generosity, my munificence and being 7 years on the blockchain, I'm giving 50 Hive to the first person to correctly describe, in 15 words or less, what happened in the picture below. What? Why? Where?

Another 50 to the first person to name three other Hivers based in Éire.

To separate the needy from the greedy, both prizes will not be awarded to the same person.

Sort:  

Your bottles froze and almost exploded, due to the liquid expanding.

Congratz on your 7 years. I think I'm hitting that milestone in 5 days.
♥️

Ah Vinccent, you're way too clever for my little puzzles and in 11 words too!. 50 HIVE winging its way to you anon.

Wiehoe!
Thank you so much.

I usually don't partake in contests, because I feel others deserve it more and they are often boring but how could I not give yours a try...

It was fun!
😘

P.S. How did this happen? It's not like it's Winter out there, right?

We buy raw milk from a local farmer a dozen at a time and freeze half. My silly sibling, whose grasp on reality can be a bit tenuous, stuffed the 12 into the freezer in the glass bottles without pouring a little from each. Fortunately, the tops popped which stopped the glass from breaking.

My profuse thanks for taking part in my contest. It was a test of @blanchy's assertion that nobody reads Hive posts and Blanch, you're right...Almost!

Almost. You can count a few of those as ... er... natural aberration.
Happy Hiveversary 🎈🎁🍕 !PIZZA

Thank you m'dear. As to natural aberrations, I would contend that everyone is pixelated except me.....🙃

i.e. you are not sick with digital disease, if I understand you correctly? in this case - good for you! 😃

Hahah, not quite. One of the meanings of pixilated is 'very eccentric or behaving as if mentally unbalanced' :)

Siblings!

Glad the 'tops popped off and saved you from some serious mess and or making the stuff undrinkable unless you are a glass eater.

I am known to be a notorious stalker, on here.

A stalker? Really? I heard you were a nutter!:)

😂

I think someone pipped me to the post with the frozen bottles! But I'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a very happy anniversary - and state that your presence has been very much appreciated. :)

Ah shucks, thanks. But don't you know 3 other Gaelic madsers who skulk around this place? If my little contest only gets one entry, the loss of face will be so substantial I might even have to rage-quit:)

Sounds like how I feel when no one finishes one of my wewrite stories. You'll survive to post again. I'm trying to think of the madsers.

Gawd, what a world where you can't even give away money:) Ah well. I'll just have to put it towards my lambo.

I'm afraid not, I haven't been around these parts much in the last couple of years - so I've lost touch with the movers and shakers, apart from yourselves of course. :D

Ah well, no worries. I know you've allegedly been busy tending strawberries and since you used to be such a fine writer, I'll give you a pass🙃

Appreciated very much for sure! I miss your illuminating posts. Hope you are well and thriving.

Thankyou my friend. I've got loads ready to roll, and I've also edited and updated a lot of my previous writings - so have lots to share. I will have to get around to purchasing some hive so that I can post again! Hope you've been keeping well.:D

What if I delegate some Hive to you? It doesn't do me all that much good. How much do you need to post again?

Already done m'dear. Great minds and all that.....

Ah man - you didn't have to do that. It looks like I've run out of excuses! lol I may just have a little something to share in the coming days. ;)

Thankyou kindly @owaso - I have just logged on to find that @deirdyweirdy has kindly sent me some #hive (she really didn't have to) so now I have no excuse not to share some of my ramblings. lol

lipstick wax forgotten > high temperatures > mighty surprise covered up with inconspicuous summer blanket ;)

No, I remembered the lipstick wax, the temperatures were low and the winter duvet I used to cover the shock stuck out like a sore thumb. I still don't know what went wrong:)

Congratulations on your anniversary
I’ve been racking my brain but can’t even try to think of anything😁😁

PIZZA!

$PIZZA slices delivered:

Another 50 to the first person to name three other Hivers based in Éire.

@beanz, @ammonite, @niallon11

No flies on you🙃
50 Hive winging its way to you...incontinently!

I dunno.
Beanz was on steem but is she a hiver....Need to put this through the chair.

Hahaha, Stewards' Enquiry!

Go raibh míle maith agat!

Ná habair é.

Oh no, I missed the boat! But congratulations on your 7th anniversary @deirdyweirdy. 💗

Thanks sweetie:)

you are very welcome and thank you for all the support since I joined. I really appreciate it. 😊💗

Perhaps we can start a mutual admiration society:)

Congrats. You're a champ! You're my champ!

Ah shucks:)

Congrats on 7 years on chain. It's a great achievement and hopefully a lot of fun along the way too.

I can't say there haven't been a lot of laughs, especially at the meet-ups in the early days. Fingers crossed we're still around in another 7!

I'm a bit late to the party, But happy hiverversary.
My guess with the bottles would have been 'Ectoplasm bursting out of church pipe organ looking for a host'. But I see I was wrong.

No, you're absolutely right. I was only humouring the other fella pretending my bottles froze and almost exploded, due to the liquid expanding. He can be a bit of a nutter if you cross him:)

7 years, that's older than my little lass 😱! Happy belated cake day to you my friend!!

Your contest cracked me up. What fun topics and lots of love behind wanting to give Hive away to celebrate another loop around the globe on chain! Yer a gem 💚🤗 Here's to 7 more years! 🥂

7 years, that's older than my little lass

Thanks a lot, that makes me feel really ...geriatric!:) If only I could remember where I put me teeth:)

Congrats to you!

Thank you very kindly!

Gran's Chili sauce coagulated after exposure to radiation. She gently wrapped them in fruit paper.

Not quite, but almost!:)

Congrats on the 7 years my friend! Pair flay to your elbow... And to think nobody mentioned me as an Irish person on Hive, the indignation!! Come on @demotruk You'll know for next time 😁😁

I'll have to up my game, six posts a day on all things Irish. Potatoes, pints and the Perils of the Pale, I'll get a few weeks out of that for starters... 😘

Hahaha, the perils of the pale....I'll let you away with that one since I'm a bumpkin now. I noticed you were on someone's hate list as well. What are you doing wrong?:):)

I jest of course, having spent over a third of my life there, I know it well and it's as good a spot as any.

Ha ha, ya I happened upon your mans list 😁😁 I asked him why and he had no good answer. Seemed very peculiar. I used to throw him a few votes, and then noticed they all get downvoted to nothing, so stopped, as it's futile. That's all I can think of or maybe he doesnt like the outside table wee lighthouse you adore so much?? 🤣 Sure look it, they can't all love me like.... 😁😁😋

Hahaha, you know what they say...there's only one thing worse than being talked about, and that's not being talked about:)

Chicken soup in a bag.

Correction, I mistyped chicken soul in a bag, and now would like to amend my answer to that. Kidding, disregard this entry. Just wanted to say happy hiveversary, my friend <3 Lovely to know you! And wonderful initiative!

Thanks Hon, for all the support and your thought-provoking posts. And may I take this opportunity to deny categorically that I have any chickens alive, dead or souped in my freezer!

Happy anniversary and may you keep being such an amazing contributor on the platform for many, many years. I love hearing from you!
At some point please enlighten us about that weird pic... I don't want to speculate...

Honey knows but Honey didn't tell. A well-brought-up young lady, if I may say so.
To you too, thanks for the years of support. May the roads rise with you and may all your troubles be little ones:)

She does? I am expecting her shortly and since I have nothing to offer, we cannot do this the nice way... The hard way it is then...:))

🙃 Oh no! What have I done? Is there to be blood on my hands?

Congratulations my friend. Generous of you! Somebody (X 2) will be very happy😇

Generous? Not really when you realise that @demotruk and @vincentnijman are just two of my many Hive accounts🙃
