just a portakabin maybe, till we can find a proper building?

Ho, ho! So, how many hours until the house guests arrive? Will you be going MN cold turkey during their stay?

::Thinks - If Massive is going cold turkey she may need medical advice::

Oh Massive, have you got house guests coming...lots of extra work to do then. But all work and no play makes Jack a dull ....

Fear not, ladies, I have a cunning plan. I shall hide Gizzy in the broom cupboard so I can keep popping back for a snog clean duster.

Maybe I can grab the odd minute to do some MNetting, too. If no one's around in the common romm I can always leave you a note.

Oh, mercy. That one has the moment where Mr Thornton unties his cravat.

::dies and goes to Heaven::

Their ETA is tomorrow afternoon, Maud, sorry forgot to say.

I'm out tonight, from shortly, but will be back later....

Where where where, Maud?

::momentarily stops quivering::

In Small's link.

::wibbles::

which Small's link?

Where she says all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. The link is the boy and the boy is the link.

::anticipatory wibble on Massive's behalf::

that was Phoenix, now you're confusing all of us

Not the only mushy brain, ha ha! It was Phoenix's link

Oh pardon me. I was just testing your initiative and code-breaking skills. My mind was on other things.

What a cheek. .

I'm not sure I can handle that smoulder tonight

So you won't want to look at this then, Small?

::tantalising::

That's just what we need. Right. Going off comms for a while.

Small, that fan is epic! Essential equipment for the Academy. We must send in an order right away!

Gee, Mr A, I am your biggest fan.

I really don't think that's up to the job Maud, pretty as it may be.

Ah, but one could waft it delicately in front of one's winsome face, all the while making come hither eyes at Mr Thornton one's husband.

I could paint myself from head to toe in woad and he'd still be glued to the footie.

wot's for dinner, love?

GOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!!!!

Scenes from life at Massive Towers

Oh indeed, Massive, but in the parallel universe dream world that is the Academy, anything becomes possible.

I'm wafting my Japanese fan at you, dearest.

Right. Off for an early night. See you tomorrow.
