Good point, Twigs. At least we don't often invade.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 08/09/2011 21:50

No, LadyVenetia, I was suggesting that it would be difficult to find a picture of John Porter with all his clothes on, with which to start the Pass The Parcel.

Viz and to wit.

PassTheTwiglets · 08/09/2011 21:51

I'm feeling much better thanks, Maud. Still a bit wobbly at times but almost back to normal.

Hmm, would we recognise the tune...

Tortington · 08/09/2011 21:52

you seem a trifle obscure i thought i would wonder in and ask

PassTheTwiglets · 08/09/2011 21:55

Ask away! We may be obscure but we fill a niche :)

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 08/09/2011 21:55

Hello Custardo. What do you want to know?

Tortington · 08/09/2011 21:57

everything

go go go

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 08/09/2011 22:02

Err, well. It all started with a thread where Cupcakesandbunting was expressing her, ahem, aesthetic appreciation for Mr Richard Armitage and his portrayal of Lucas in Spooks. And gradually it evolved into a series of academic institutions in which the MN intelligentsia ::peers round room:: gather to avoid the housework discuss various issues of great significance.

DumSpiroSpero · 08/09/2011 22:06

Basically we all posts vids and pics all day and go 'pwhooooaaar!' a lot Grin!

And we all have great fun illustrating our discussions with the appropriate visual aids.

DumSpiroSpero · 08/09/2011 22:07

Evening all!

Also custardo - we're a trifle obscure??!!! ROFL Grin

is it a lucas appreciation thread with people who have 'Firsts'

PassTheTwiglets · 08/09/2011 22:08

Seriously though. Who wouldn't?. twice

SupermassiveLBD · 08/09/2011 22:08

Well, Spiro put it far better and more honestly than I did! Grin

LadyDamerel · 08/09/2011 22:12

Oh bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger.

I have just been the world's biggest idiot. Gizzy Pass the Parcel was all ready to go when I shut down the wrong sodding window and lost the lot Angry.

Bugger.

PassTheTwiglets · 08/09/2011 22:13

LOL @ Lucas appreciation thread with people who have Firsts :o No first, seconds or anything here...

SupermassiveLBD · 08/09/2011 22:14

Firsts not obligatory, just a keen eye will do. and it's not just Lucas. There are others

PassTheTwiglets · 08/09/2011 22:16

Oh, LadyD!!! :( Could the pics you used be in 'recently closed tabs' or anything? That's how I found something I'd lost recently...

SupermassiveLBD · 08/09/2011 22:17

And others

Oh, LadyD, you poor thing! Sad

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 08/09/2011 22:19

The curriculum is a bit broader than that, Custardo - as I said, things have evolved. My particular interest (see threads passim) is Mr Thornton in North and South. The art, as I see it, is to make as many bad puns as possible and to illustrate them with photos from one of the fan websites. Twiggy is especially good at this.

::Presents Twiggy with vast and expensive bouquet::

SupermassiveLBD · 08/09/2011 22:37

I do like the extra that comes with the bouquet, Maud. Far nicer than a teddy. Can i get one like that?

DumSpiroSpero · 08/09/2011 22:40

I think custardo may have tired of our lunacy intellectual debate already!
