High energy (your love is lifting me)

Hmmm. That second one might not be so suitable in a work context actually

Midge - Pass it on Down by Alabama

So let's leave some blue up above us
Let's leave some green on the ground
It's only ours to borrow, let's save some for tomorrow
Leave it and pass it on down

Not Camembert darling... it's Pie d'Angleys. From Waitrose actually. Rogue won't have been able to tell le difference though. She's just not cultured like I am.

Hope you enjoyed it Rogue-y 😍😘

NeedToKnow101 · 30/04/2021 21:14

Not sure that made sense 😳

You are going to tie cheese on a string, fire it to rogue and then pull it sharply back when she almost grasps it?

Yeh why not? Is that a weird thing to do? I did originally mean that I'd throw her the cheese string like a javelin, but I like the idea of cheese-on-a-string. A bit like that coin that Top Cat has in the opening credits. Good thing we both live in the South of England, or the plan would be simply ridiculous (and unworkable).

@midgedude with Rogue & NTK on the prowl, no chance 🤣. However I've had a bottle of some sort of pink fizz (apparently rather nice) chilling in the fridge for about 18 months if you are desperate?

Oh god, I go away for a few hours and you’ve all gone off on another cheese fix!

NeedToKnow101 · 30/04/2021 21:32

Maybe it's a sign we need to post some cheesy lyrics...

I'll go first!

They came with clues of a sort
