I've never been to the Wiesn (Münchner or otherwise) but I'm in!

45/50

Icons of England by Bill Bryson (10/6/19)

1. Afternoon - In one day whe walked along the bank of the river Ottery, courtsey of an obliging farmer, tucked into some of the best pub grub in Lydford village and endet the afternoon underneath Widgery Cross on Brat Tor. (p 32)
2. Alcohol - But we soon had bread delivered from three bakeries to extend the choice; a video-loan service; bouquets of flowers; daily copies of the Sheffield newspaper, The Star; a fresh fruit and veg corner; a broken-biscuit discount rack; stacks of 55lb sacks of potatoes; two deep freezers; a wide range of dairy produce in open-shelved fridges and, best of all, we obtained an off-licence and sold alcohol. (p 340)
3. Attractions - Down Abbey Lane in East London there sits a building that will never rank among the city's main attractions. (p 261)
4. Bands + 37. Parade - The centrepiece of village life is the annual fair, where the charities and local traders have their stalls; brass bands play; beautiful babies compete for rosettes, likewise dogs; children's faces are painted; the bars to record business; celebrities play cricket,; and dignitaries dress up and parade, trying to impersonate Her Majesty's wave. (p 137)
5. Beer + 17. Festival - Beer festivals, horse trials, endurance races and, let us not forget, walking, are all here for the taking. (p 125)
6. Brew + 27. Keg - They had gone the fizzy route with their keg 'JC', but had retained proper bitter and a stronger, soupier brew called Directors. (p 188)
7. Celebration - Together they have created an ecletic and richly varied celebration of England's countryside. (p 14)
8. Community - The highest annual homicide rate in England has been achieved - if that is the word - by more than one community in the West Country. (p 90)
9. Costumes + 38. People - Walking early one winter morning round the Serpentine in Hyde Park two years ago, I saw a couple of wiry people coming out of a little hut wearing only swimming costumes, goggles and rubber caps, and heading straight for the water. (p 402)
10. Crowds - While I love all of these, I think I am happiest in the slightly more rugged conservation area, where the bluebells pop up in random fashion and the crowds tend not to go. (p 301)
11. Dancing - Spring, its cherry blossom dancing in the breeze with a promise of lazy afternoons of English tea on the lawn. (p 81)
12. District - The rot set in when Stone Age immigrants discovered what we now call the Lake District and a very useful greenstone. (p 74)
13. Enjoy + 24. History - And although our history books seem full of them - the royals grew forests to hunt them in, Georgian landowners created parks to show them off, and the poor used to enjoy feasting on them - many people have never seen one. (p 27)
15. Event - And a trip to Guildford, which was only about six miles away, was a special event. (p 147)
19. Food - Fortunately the grouse moors were already being managed by regular burning to provide a patchwork of different-aged heather stands, food, cover and shelter for the grouse and many other special creatures great and small. (p 75)
20. Friends - With friends I've hauled an absurdly inappropriate picnic up the south side (there is a remarkable account of a wagon train of a picnic ascending Skiddaw in the early nineteenth century). (p 129)
21. Fun - And waiting for them to appear was all part of the fun. (p 29)
22. German - Those high-banked, close-hedged little roads, often with grass growing down the middle, and a lack of signposts reminiscent of the summer of 1940 when they were taken down to confuse possible German paratroops, seem to deter many urban-minded folk. (p 71)
23. Heritage + 46. Tradition - It gives me hope that we will not allow our traditions and heritage to be swept away, and that we will look once more to the land for nourishment, healing, wisdom and inspiration. (p 14)
30. Lager - Some people asked for lager. (p 188)
31. Laughter - They cleared it, I didn't, and I ended up sitting on my arse in the stream-bed with their gleeful, smug laughter ringing in my ears, a sound that always spurred me on to greater acts of revenge. (p 132)
34. Music - Much of the Aldeburgh Music Festival takes place along its banks in a converted maltings - a complex of red-brick buildings sitting low in the landscape, whose steeped roofs are scarcely visible above the lie of the land. (p 48)
35. Natural + 49. World - Gouty and misshapen - with limbs lopped off - but with deep roots, these "King Lears of the natural world", as Thomas Pakenham puts it, have stoically endured all that has been flung at them. (p 41)
36. October - With the low October sun penetrating the vegetation, the trees themselves seem to be on fire. (p 239)
40. Rides - Cockles and mussels on the promenade; ice creams; amusement arcades and bingo halls when the weather is less kind; donkey rides on the sands; and deckchairs for relaxation. (p 95)
41. Sausage - Fox and Hounds, Free House, with a jolly hunting scene was worth a look: proper beer and possible some rudimentary food, such as sausage and mash. (p 188)
42. Season - Its subject is springtime and the great unfurling ecstasy of the English countryside in that season, a time when, as the song puts it, "The ewe bleats after the lamb/The cow lows after the calf." (p 61)
48. Visitors - The island is a surprisingly tranquil place, and in fact rather a lonely one, for few visitors find their way through the pedestrian tunnels that lead to it. (p 22)

The Big Over Easy (Nursery Crime, #1) by Jasper Fforde (10/13/19)

14. Entertainment - With the high level of fee-paying curiosity seekers the litmus test of its success, St. Cerebellum's even outstripped Bedlam as those requiring lunatic-based entertainment flocked to Reading in droves. (p 168)
18. Flavor - The popularity of Nail Soup continues to spread across Reading this week with the news that Smileyburger has added Nailburger to its product list and the makers of Cup-A-Soup, Pot Noodle and Walkers Crisps are introducing "nail flavor to their product line. (p 331)
26. International - Twenty-one years further on, Chymes was still a serious international player in the world of competitive detecting, and Mary had never missed an issue. (p 21)
32. Limit - "An excellent question, Mr. Hatchett, and one that pushed my deducting powers to the limit." (p 28)
45. Tent - An uniformed officer in a raincoat pointed them towards a white scene-of-crime tent set up behind the grandstand. (p 304)

Dear Fahrenheit 451 A Librarian's Love Letters and Break-Up Notes to Her Books by Annie Spence (10/21/19)

16. Fairgrounds - Who had been to concerts that did not take place at the fairgrounds. (p 24)
28. Kick off - And five hours of slushy, icy, semi-truck-y driving that lay between me and my happy childhood home seemed like a shitty way to kick off the holiday. (p 130)
44. Stein - Then that piece by Gertrude Stein that people assumed they were too dim to understand, but turns out Gertrude's lover was jealous of a woman namend May and made her change every instance of "may" to "can", rendering it kind of gibberish. (p 142)

Doctor Who Twelve Angels Weeping Twelve stories of the villains from Doctor Who by Dave Rudden (10/27/19)

25. Hops - "I don't know," Vastra said, trying not to wrinkle her nose against the stench of the burnt hops with which they brewed their ale. (p 222)
43. Servers - City Ten had left a simple goodbye message repeating on its comm servers, like a guest politely excusing themselves form a party, and then they had gone dark as well. (p 20)

List:

29. Labels
33. Malt
39. Pretzel
47. Vendor
50. Yeast

Carly (car88) | 63 comments OCTOBER 2019 - SCAVENGER HUNT
OKTOBERFEST

·Post 23 *FINISHED*

38/50
AFTERNOON - #4 (loc 697, 26%)
"Cute." She smirks. "Contract says I get half up front. You throw a hissy fit, that money's still mine and I get a free afternoon. You don't have the leverage, so you might as well give it up now."
ALCOHOL - #4 (loc 804, 30%)
There's a small bar with a vast array of alcohols. A gym. A library. And a pool. What it's noticeably lacking is people. "A cage, indeed."
ATTRACTIONS - #1 (loc 1559, 41%)
"Well, this is certainly a surprise. I thought this was a tourist attraction of sorts," I said. I cautiously moved my large frame along the corridor wall careful not to topple the morbid pyramids of the dead.
BANDS - #6 (loc 828, 42%)
Not waiting to see what it turned into, she whirled and ran. She didn't get far before steel band-like arms wrapped around her midsection and lifted her, which left her feet pedaling in midair.
BEER - #3 (loc 2181, 69%)
A man who traveled the world had spread stories about Vikings, including tales about a man who claimed to be Thor's grandson. When I found him, slouched over with his beer, I settled beside him to hear the story myself.
BREW - #3 (loc 1561, 49%)
"Don't go getting your girly hair in my brew," Jack bleated, when he glanced over at me. Tying up my hair, I flipped him off. "If you're not careful, I'll spit in it."
CELEBRATION - #4 (loc 2554, 88%)
I love her. The truth should be cause for celebration. She loves me, too. She might not have said it aloud, but it's there in the trust she places in me every time we interact.
COMMUNITY
COSTUMES - #3 (loc 544, 17%)
We looked like a right pair. Me, with tight leather trousers and a tight fitting ripped shirt. Perfect to fight in. Her, with a weird get up of a costume, ready to fall over from exhaustion.
CROWDS - #5 (loc 788, 13%)
"If you can make it by me and him, then you have to make it by Arion," Vance tells the crowd, using his unimpressed tone that's layered with thick condescension.
DANCING - #4 (loc 1174, 42%)
She'd have pushed me until I was tempted to fuck her right there against the bar to prove a point. She loves dancing on my buttons, and I can't quite manage to hold it against her.
DISTRICT
ENJOY - #1 (loc 1803, 47%)
"Ball wad?" Gareth questioned gleefully. "Asswaffle?" I added as my body shook with mirth. "You're both rectum buckets and I'm done. We have more important business than to enjoy my lack of four letter word prowess," she snapped.
ENTERTAINMENT - #1 (loc 2783, 71%)
"On three boys," he directed. The crowd surged forward toward the evening's unusual entertainment, but all eyes were on Vlad. He had gone utterly still and red flames began to shoot out around him.
EVENT - #2 (loc 652, 31%)
The blond deity with multi-hued eyes and a quick smile was dressed for a dressage event, complete with helmet and crop.
FAIRGROUNDS
FESTIVAL
FLAVOR - #2 (loc 498, 24%)
He kissed her. The taste of the blood in her mouth ensnared her instantly. She stilled, arrested by the flavor and texture.
FOOD - #1 (loc 2587, 66%)
I placed my fingers under Raquel's chin and closed her mouth before she commented on Pam's frightening array of food and questionable table manners.
FRIENDS - #4 (loc 703, 26%)
"I'm Tink. No, we can't be friends. No, I don't have any useful information for you to mine. No, I won't do anything to compromise my contract."
FUN - #1 (loc 275, 9%)
However, eavesdropping was far more fun. Rude? Yes. Inappropriate? Again, yes. Was I going to do it? Absolutely.
GERMAN - #3 (loc 946, 30%)
"Happy now you have your clothes? And, your dog?" My sarcastic tone went completely ignored as the woman in front of me bent over to make a fuss of the German Shepard.
HERITAGE - #1 (loc 160, 6%)
The logistics of our heritage were complicated. Easiest and shortest way to explain is that there had been reincarnation on my mother's part.
HISTORY - #1 (loc 2075, 53%)
The kidnapping of Steve Perry, aka Journey's front man, would forever go down in history.
HOPS - #5 (loc 2928, 48%)
Before I can even make one small pile, Damien is wheeling into the driveway, barely putting the brake on, before he hops out. His eyes narrow on me, and then his brow furrows.
INTERNATIONAL
KEG
KICK OFF - #3 (loc 582, 19%)
"I was going to take you home, but when you zonked out, I decided to bring you here for the night." Chloe kicked off her little shoes, leaving them in the middle of the room.
LABELS - #5 (loc 2518, 41%)
"Well, that's intriguing. I'll call those the sizzlers," Arion chirps as he walks around to a box of pencils and actually labels it. With a marker, not a pencil.
LAGER - #3 (loc 2135, 67%)
"Well, hello handsome," a woman said as I went to pass. Pausing, I glanced over at her. She rested against the bar, a pint of lager in her hand.
LAUGHTER - #1 (loc 2651, 67%)
"Yes. Yes, that was plan fucking A," I hissed as everyone in the room let their laughter rip.
LIMIT - #2 (loc 892, 42%)
"The Immortals and demons had an understanding that the normal humans are off limits. Things have gone to shit fast, partly because I can't get the fucking Council to agree on anything," Rhyn snorted.
MALT
MUSIC - #3 (loc 1933, 61%)
It wasn't the type of party that played stupidly loud music with young people shagging in the garden.
NATURAL - #3 (loc 2468, 78%)
I could understand why they didn't use her for fighting, she didn't exactly have a natural talent for it.
OCTOBER
PARADE - #4 (loc 310, 13%)
Jafar pulls his shirt on me and buttons it up as if he dresses me in his clothing regularly. The conqueror must parade his stolen goods in front of his men.
PEOPLE - #2 (loc 1290, 61%)
"This is the creature that nearly wiped out the planet and the human race, who's building an Army of Souls to make a second go at it, who's eaten more people than you'll ever know, even if you live forever."
PRETZEL
RIDE - #2 (loc 1424, 68%)
Even demons feared Past-Death; she'd ride on the small woman's reputation.
SAUSAGE - #6 (loc 1109, 56%)
"How do you like your sausage?" Erect and in my sex were the first words that came to mind, but what she said was, "You pig! I told you I wouldn't sleep with you."
SEASON
SERVERS - #6 (loc 761, 39%)
Respect or not, Satan's next words made Aidan's vision turn red, and he growled. "Who will serve their master tonight?" Lucifer dropped his hand to an engorged cock that put every mortal man to shame.
STEIN
TENT - #1 (loc 2246, 58%)
"Remind me never to ask for help like that again," I told her with a grimace. "Will do. You ready to enter the shit show?" I glanced down at my now un-tented pants and chuckled.
TRADITION - #2 (loc 747, 35%)
"If the magic of Hell can't cure her, can yours?" "Not so far. I've tried traditional medicine," he motioned to the machines lining the perimeter of the room, "and my magic."
VENDOR - #5 (loc 1260, 21%)
I tense, worried this is where the pitchforks-and-torches metaphor began. Suddenly, the people quickly scatter, searching through the outdoor vendor stands I'm finally noticing.
VISITORS - #1 (loc 2672, 68%)
Satan stood calmly smiling in the middle of the pristine white great room while accusations flew. He was clearly not a welcome visitor.
WORLD - #1 (loc 2605, 66%)
Not only had Juliet tried to kill Raquel, she'd also tried to Astrid and help some unsavory Demons take over the world. Thankfully, her skills were lacking and her insanity made her stabs at power a joke.
YEAST

2/25
Attic Treasures
ALBUMS
COBWEBS
COMIC [BOOKS]
CRIB
FUTON
INSTRUMENTS
[BADMINTON] RACKET - #3 (loc 2850, 90%)
The thumping of my heartbeat was only drowned out by Jack's singing as he started to bay an awful modern day tune. Chloe joined in with him, making a racket, too. Speeding up, I was tempted to break suddenly to shut them up.
