50 lashes for me, the mod (gasp!), as I propose to ask a chatty question or 2
-
Hilde - is your avatar a Numenorean tile?
Ealasaide - is yours from a particular movie (it's Ingrid Bergman, isn't it?)
Nerindel - is yours from an anime film?
Everdawn - yours I can identify!

And forgiveness."
lovely, just lovely . . .
