Sweet Mr Mikewbate,

I am so sorry I have been rather busy at work. If I had known you were up to your usual scamp type behaviour - I would obviously have called wonderful Mr Batdog to set about your person - perhaps tearing out your end trails, or maybe thrown a small explosive device in your direction.

Will you please accept my sincere apology for neglecting you on this occasion?

*Bloody hell.... where did I put my nipple tassles....?*

*Tortures himself over possible charges for incomplete return of belly dancing outfit to kebab and wine*

Oh is that what they are?, I've just sewn them onto my pillowcase. What strange dreams I'll be having now

[Michael Palaeologus]

*Well, bygones DM - just this time mind - I was all up for another Benny Hill style chase around the Lounge with the wretched Batdog dangling from my nethers*

*Are you coming to the drinkie DM? Are you bringing Ana? Mrs Dobbin's lactation is beyond a joke and she is eating my runner bean plants on the balcony*

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr Mikewbate,

I have had the nastiest most evil and threatening comments from hell on my blog in the last week. I think it is best if I keep my head down. I am sure I would be stoned in the manner of Mary Magdalen. The dulwichmums and dads are revolting...

[Keef]

Ignore them for God's sake. The type of person who is being horrible on a blog would not have the bottle to even utter a word in public, they're all too two faced for that! *Remembers that this is The Quiet Room and stops speaking very loud... Makes apologetic gestures to inhabitants of the room*

[Ant]

*thinks loudly in DM's direction: this is what comes of reading your blog via an aggregator, DM - I had no idea people were being mean to you. Boo hiss to them!*

[dulwichmum]

Dear Ant,

That is very kind. Please tell me, what is an aggregator?

DM

[Michael Palaeologus]

*Keef is quite right DM, such people would not dare voice their vile views in public - being the cowards that they are*

*Come along, you know that you will be with friends*

[Huguenot]

*ponders whether an aggrogator is like an alligator with an antagonistic edge*
