to be most aggrieved that I did not get married off in the last IPOAT thread? Won't someone think of Nigel?

That poor, poor farverless babe

luckily, Johnny arrives and whisks Gibbon away

yanbu. tis the season for fairytale weddings after all.

(applies embroidered linen kerchief to eyes to wipe away the tears of joy at the very sight of the blessed royal wedding dress)

I am frankly horrified at the lack of forward planning shown at the end of the last thread.

And where was Umami with her overriding techniques when a wedding is needed? Hmmm?

I am a random interloper. (was TotalChaos btw). I can interlope back out again, just got lured in by the surreal thread title.

JamieLeeCurtis · 19/11/2010 11:57

Noooo- not an interloper. All are welcome. I haven't been on for a while meself

BeribbonedGibbon · 19/11/2010 11:58

I demand a husband.

Nigel needs a father figure. I fear his demi god ways need curbing rather quickly. He is becoming quite a handful.

No you mut stay TC!

We have had new blood of late. Riven has been living an amish life, mini is away with the fairies and Jinny has gnarled hands.

Was Johnny not good enough Gibbon?

Maybe you need someone a bit taller? Johnny is maybe a bit petite for demi-god curbing

Hullygully · 19/11/2010 12:00

We must apprentice Nigel to the chairmaker. He needs gainful employment and something to do with his hands, and as we eschew power tools, his special electrical qualities may come in useful.

BeribbonedGibbon · 19/11/2010 12:02

Hully still has freakishly large feet but we don't mention those. You must tell her the last chap that gave them a good filing did a marvelous job. Wink

BeribbonedGibbon · 19/11/2010 12:02

Johnny is sweet an all but I am thinking we needa much firmer hand.

Could Nigel not be attached to a wind turbine and used to power the town mangles?

PrincessFiorimonde · 19/11/2010 12:03

Jamie, at the end of the last thread everyone forgot they were Amish and reverted to type.

Anotherbrick: all random interlopers welcome!

Hullygully · 19/11/2010 12:03

Cow. My feet are wonders of slenderness and delicacy.

JamieLeeCurtis · 19/11/2010 12:04

Verily, I have forgot what "type" is.

BeribbonedGibbon · 19/11/2010 12:04

of course they are my darling

Ladies. Nigel may be a handful but he is still my first born.

He shall not be used to power turbines, tools or anything else for that matter.

BeribbonedGibbon · 19/11/2010 12:06
