A new English mer

[Mermaid Neri Elvina]

Hi all I am new to MN and I live in the south of England. I wanted a tail when I was 8, I was watching H2o at the time and then I went off it a bit-now I am almost 14 and saving for a tail and monofin from Finfun. I can't wait to get to know everyone! I am so happy that I found the MerNetwork, I would love to meet some of the local mers.

I was thinking of Neri for my mermaid name, it means Ocean Spirit in Greek and My Light in Hebrew. What do you guys think?

Hello Neri :D

Welcome to the network. Good luck with saving up for your mermaid tail! I just ordered mine from FinFun.. very excited for it to arrive! I've heard good things about their tails. It will be my first one! I hope you like it here. I was happy too when I stumbled across this place. It is wonderful for learning and connecting with others. Glad you're here! :mermaid kiss:

[Mermaid Neri Elvina]

Thank you Corabelle, It will be my first tail too. What color have you ordered from FinFun?

[Mermaid Corabelle]

I ordered the Aussie Green tail. :) It's a mix of green/blue colors. My order is still processing, hasn't shipped yet. I can barely contain myself!

[Mermaid Neri Elvina]

I love the Aussie Green! It is a gorgeous tail! I am saving for Asian Magenta. :mermaid kiss:

[Mermaid Corabelle]

The Asian Magenta is a lovely color. I'm sure you will look/feel amazing when you're able to get it!

[Mermaid Neri Elvina]

Just £88 to go, now. Should take about a month maybe two. Can't wait until I can order it. Just concerned about how much the shipping and customs charge will cost.

I think we all know how the waiting game works when it comes to saving up for tails. Totally worth it in the end, though.

Yeah I can't wait! So excited to get my first tail!

Welcome- you're starting off on the right fluke :p actually saving, and knowing that's the way to get your tail. :)

I'm only 13 so that's the only way I will get it! Think I might look into a paper round to give myself a boost

[Lucinda]

Whaaa? Only 13? I thought you were older than that, Neri. (Take it as a compliment :) )

[deepblue]

You'd be surprised, perhaps, by how many people of all ages think the way to get a tail is by asking someone to give it to you or starting a fund raiser.

Haha how old did you think I was? People say I look 16 when I'm not, so I'm used to it [emoji4]

Yeah. I think it will be worth the wait, it makes it more fun knowing you have earned it!
