Welcome to our newest faculty building. Make yourselves comfortable and ignore the smell of paint. We cannot keep up with the demand for new premises.

Well, if Stripey has lost interest then I guess he's all yours, Holly.

I am most amused by this collective ear fixation. My priorities lie elsewhere.

Theresahollyinyourmind · 15/12/2010 19:51

Ah, Missy, 'tis true. A cravatless neck is divine. Every millimetre of him is divine. But the ears are so cute.

Now doctor, I have this funny problem with my blood pressure. It shoots up whenever I see an orange jumsuit.

Oi I was being 'attended' to by the good doctor!

I am watching SB again while DH is out on the town.

asmallbunchofmistletoe · 15/12/2010 20:03

Holly - I think you'd better return to Guy, pronto! He's getting jealous and you know he tends to fly into a rage.

StripeyMoon · 15/12/2010 20:05

He looks like he's about to get his sword out Holly Shock

Theresahollyinyourmind · 15/12/2010 20:07

Can't we share, Stripes? Casualty is on here and Charlie Fairhead just doesn't cut the mustard.

Oooh Porters got his big guns out

StripeyMoon · 15/12/2010 20:09

Ok I will let you have the dr for a bit while I admire the scenery here.

StripeyMoon · 15/12/2010 20:11

Ink blot scene coming up soon.

Ooops, Guy does look a bit cross

He takes summer,
And makes it winter
Those cold baby blues
Could make granite splinter
His moral compass has been displaced
That's Gizzie, with the scowling face

Did you ever hear hungry wolves howling?
He'll give you the very same scare
When he speaks it's almost like growling
So ladies, you'd better beware

You can keep Bobbin
Prince John and Archer
Gizzie's the entree
They're just the starter
No one can ever replace
Gizzie, with the smirking face

I have decided. I shall get the holidays over, and then I am going to have a serious spending spree on Amazon.

Oh poo, DH is on his way home.

asmallbunchofmistletoe · 15/12/2010 20:28

Oh dear, Stripey. Is this an example of the harm that Armitagemania can cause to the contemporary marriage?

Holly - Perhaps Amazon will have a January sale? Just a thought, but does Limpopoville have an English library?

Theresahollyinyourmind · 15/12/2010 20:37

Unfortunately no, about the library. A great shame, I have always had to spend a fortune for reading matter. And now I have to think of DVDs and CDs.

Still, all in the name of the Advancement of Knowledge

Hello - just popping in to say hi!

Theresahollyinyourmind · 15/12/2010 20:39

Hi Oyster. How's tricks?

OP posts:
asmallbunchofmistletoe · 15/12/2010 20:40

Then creating the English Library of Limpopoville should be your new year's project. It could have a special section - a chained library maybe - for particularly, ahem, important resources. It would be a Public Service.

asmallbunchofmistletoe · 15/12/2010 20:41

Hello Oyster. Have you watched last night's treasure yet?

Theresahollyinyourmind · 15/12/2010 20:48

Stripey could design the building, too. And we could have weekly film nights, with free tea and buns.
Now all we need is a way to keep the termites at bay. Apparently they love printing ink.

OP posts:
asmallbunchofmistletoe · 15/12/2010 21:10

Sounds like a plan. Stripey flies out to Limpopoville, oversees the creation of your home cinema and the Holly Foundation English Library and Mediatheque. She wins an international prize for architecture, you gain a Damehood for services to international culture. The rest of us get to attend a very glam opening gala with some Very Special Guests.

A propos the pest problem

Some primal termite knocked on wood
And tasted it, and found it good.
And that is why your Cousin May
Fell through the parlor floor today.

StripeyMoon · 15/12/2010 21:20

I'm liking the sound of that Missy!

DH was allowed in, do not fear, he joined in the watching of SB and quite enjoyed it. Not sure that he enjoyed my comments about Porters big guns! Xmas Grin
