I'm a member of Britannia Rescue myself.

*Just had a very weird dream involving voices, a knife and a lovely donkey* *Wanders out to the Paddock(we havent been outside for ages) and THERE she is, the lovely Mrs Dobbin - in one piece and lactating nicely* *Pats the delightful creature on the nose - "Nasty dreams, nasty voices from evil embittered people with nothing more to keep them company but mindless consumerism and a flea-bitten pooch - whosealovelydonkeyden? didums"* *Donkey-Milk-Shakes anybody? Got organic mango and strawberries*

This is true - launching an attack in your early posts doesnt endear.

Lots of them?

Cool, now I'm an Owl. "Twit-twoo" as we round, feathery raptors like to say.

You play ball with me, and i'll scratch yours.

This is building nicely. The Chief Hand-Maiden has access to free ritual libation (foaming) and crisps and nuts and scratchings, as served by His Holiness, the Barry Road. Thanks you for visiting this humble thread BLESSED ONE.

It is quite clear that Keef is by far and away THE most popular forumite. Any sign of dissent stimulates the forum to immediate coordinated acts of defence. Any debate about Keef promotes a fountain of positive energy. So, having been watching alot of TV about India and Hindus of late; I propose that we promote Keef to the pantheon of Gods and worship him. The CPT could become the Temple of Keef. Fear n' Loathing could become his Head Priest and I suggest Bagpuss as Hand-Maiden in Chief (THIS is what you have being saving yourself for Bagpuss). Barry Road and other CPT regulars could take on ceremonial positions. Our holy day could be the first Friday of every month when we meet to make offerings of libations and chant the holy mantra - "And yours is .....?". I envisage effigies of THE BLESSED ONE, showing him with alot of arms - and in each hand he holds a pint-pot.

Bagpuss is a hoot and buff and is very kind to a drunken forumite staggering past the CPT covered in kebab grease.

"Funny chaps, the Ladies"

Oh *rse! I am in Estonia on 21 September - the next round of Tallin based work starts as soon as I get back from holiday. Blinkin' flip and blimey!!

Welcome - I think I met you on Friday. I have a feeling you are destined to be Tingawee!

"I'm hungry enough to eat a scabby 'os"

Doh!!

Tsk Mockney - you know your are allowed to hold NO views unless sanctioned by your Missus.

She can run quite quickly that bloke MW74 ...

Admit it Sean, it really is "Any excuse ....."

Well, were are we meeting next? Back to usual 1st Friday of the month (is it the 1st Friday? I am losing track). I am on holiday, but lets get the debate started.

..and there is a weather warning for later this week - "unseasonal rain". Joy.

Polly D you are posting again! Does this means that you have settled into your new job? :) Cloakie - have you learned your lesson now? This isnt anti-social forum. We LIKE each other, we argue and bicker but we dont slag each other off, much.

*Staggers into room stage left. Holds a bridle in one hand and blood stained butchers knife in the other* *Mutters under breath "It was the voices, it was Dulwich-Mum made me do it, I didnt want to, she MADE me!* *"Sob, sob, poor Mrs D - she was a lovely Donkey - but Dulwich-Mum MADE me - the voices, does anybody else hear the voices"* *Exits stage right*

Wise words from our Singapore correspondant. Cloakiewannacuddle?

*Sorry Madworld - It was because I am dressed in a frock, things get....confusing* *This IS the quiet room after all, if you want to make a noise invent a room for the purpose, possibly called "The Nursery" now, give it a rest* *Excuse me, I have to milk a donkey*

Prime the Batdog DM - he may be needed.

Clearly "the Cloak" has joined the wrong Forum.
