So where's the cup of tea emoticon then?

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,

Norman x

Hello all. I haven't been able to post this evening as SoMuch has been out I have been a bit busy with cabinet business, but it's good to see you are still all supporting the campaign.

Hope to see you again tomorrow!

MsInterpret loving your cup!

Stig - that's a sore point in this household. DB and I had playmobil knights back in the late 70's - and they have disappeared. I wanted to introduce DC's playmobil to their ancestors and they can't be found. I suspect DB foul play.

I'm definitely not alone - quite a few people on here have Playmobil, including stealthsquiggle, belgo, Franca, Slubberdegullion, ChippyMinton, Tikkabillajive etc. It's nice to know there are a few of us around....

Hey Norman guess what? My ds just came from school and was playing with something in his room, I went in to put clothes in his wardrobe and asked him what are you doing? He said I'm playing with my playmobil mum. I froze and said playmobil? And sure enough he had his pirate set out which I forgot was playmobil! I feel so stupid not knowing I have playmobil in the house, so Norman you are not alone in the world of plastic. Your extended family's in my house!

Thank you LadyP! I have already posted a link on the other "tearoom" type threads I could find (I don't think Lissie's is open today).

Thanks for voting, Maud!
