I see we have a new wine glass emoticon! Jolly good! But some of us would prefer a good old cup of tea.

Do you think you could cater for the likes of us too?

Lots of love,

new recruits to Norman's campaign. Welcome.

Congrats to the LilRed's

Bacon sarnie for lunch, perfect. Thanks. Will go perfectly with the cuppa I'm about to have with my lunch. Need to thaw out, just hung out a load of laundry on the line and the wind's really howling here. Can I save my jammie dodger for later?

Yes, you wouldn't want to iron the laptop! I may have to go and supervise SoMuch doing some more cleaning, but will be along again later.....

I am so not MN royalty, stealth! But thank you for considering me to be so. Now bacon sarnies sound like a good idea. Better not eat too many biscuits....

Do MNTowers not realise that Norman is MN Royalty and his demands must be met Shock?

c'mon, MN Towers - he is prime minister, after all....

I don't know, but it would be fun to see what your house looked like in Playmobil! Is Lissie's shop open today? I haven't seen it around....

Do you think if I send my house plans to Playmobil in Germany they'd build me a scale model so I can visualise the space etc? (Am actually meant to be working on said plans)

Recruits in a tough one. Lissie's shop's quiet today too.

Ah,no we don't have any designers on site. Most of the designs for things we have to build seem to have been done by someone at Playmobil, and come as an instruction booklet...Hmm

confessing that it's actually a coffee. Kids had me up 5 times between 12.30 & 5am so am struggling today. Seems to be price I have to pay for going to bed at 9.30

Thanks for the biscuits and jaffa cakes. Hands round the chocolate.

Sounds like a typical day on site then Norman! :o Anyone fancy drawing up the house elevations I'm meant to be working on or haven't you got a designer on site atm?

LadyPumpington · 07/02/2011 11:52

oooh sounds busy norman, so how do we go about getting more people on here?

Ahem - well, to be honest, it's not really that busy, except of course where tea drinking is concerned. My mates and I are just hanging around outside my portakabin drinking tea and eating biscuits at the moment. I'm sure we'll think of something else to do soon though. Ah, yes, must remember to check supplies of teabags, and do an internet shop if necessary.....
