@YetAnotherSpartacus

Can they feed the alligator a socially distanced burger and chips to get rid of him

Are socially distanced burgers and chips toxic to alligators?

That's a good point. We wouldn't want to give him stomach ache.

It's making me giggle. Someone further down the thread described us as a 'bunch of middle aged Mums' with reference to the machete incident. Now we are getting excited over the appearance of a plastic alligator! Grin Grin Grin

Hell, the alligator is likely to be the highlight of my week ...

That was me. Blush And I am extremely excited about the appearance of a plastic alligator. Blush

I've been shielding for the past 11 weeks - can you tell?!! Grin

YetAnotherSpartacus · 10/06/2020 10:25

I knew the alligator would be a star! Grin

@SoMuchToBits I'm a lurker, just catching up and wanted to add how much I love and appreciate your work - both in Playmobile land and RL!

Stories are Brill. Can we have a scenario where Brandy sees off the Alligator? There was a clip on t'interweb of a cat stalking an alligator, attacking and said alligator turned tail!

OMG - that cat!!! Shock

Was that @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats TC ! That is one brave cat!

SoMuchToBits · 10/06/2020 20:12

Thank you all! I think the water is fairly warm, so the alligator should be ok. And I don't think feeding it burger and chips would be good! Grin

Why am I so happy to see a plastic alligator?! I blame lockdown but also this thread is such a happy place.

Looking forward to the grand finale tomorrow

SoMuchToBits · 10/06/2020 20:39

It won't exactly be a finale - because I'm hoping to come back after a couple of weeks with some more ideas...

His next call is to Llinos who has a problem with her shower. But first she needs to remove Brandy the cat from the shower tray.

Gwyn has come to repair Alwyn's fridge. But as soon as he opens the fridge door, Apollo snaffles the salami!

We need someone to fix our boiler - does Patrick have any availability?
Thank you SoMuch for all your spirit-raising work in Playmoland. See you again soon!

FuzzyPuffling · 11/06/2020 08:16

I am delighted to see Brandy in the shower, as our cats also enjoy a foray to the shower too. We have to leave their bowl of water in there and it is known as "the cat pub" .
I did wonder if Brandy was going to face up to the alligator!

petalpower · 11/06/2020 08:18

How lovely to see Brandy and Apollo up to their old tricks again!

ChessieFL · 11/06/2020 08:25

Naughty Apollo!

What is it about cats and showers/baths? 😺
