Not monkey shit.

It is beyond such tawdry and mundane descriptions as afforded by adjectives

Is it, then, a hyperintelligent shade of the colour blue?

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:34

No. It is called Eau de Hully

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:34

But it looks better on me because I am thinner and prettier.

psst- Gibbon- I do so hate to tell tales, but I hear that MsMary has purloined your Ode To Gerald and passed it off as her own! Even now it is flying off the stacks at St Paul's Churchyard- and like to become the No 1 Pamphlet of the week!

SpringHeeledJack · 16/02/2011 11:38

...and good for you, Jins

the only interview I'm likely to get in the next five years will probably be in a police station

tsk

I hope you have 24 hours to spare, Shiney, while she goes over the basics with you

I resemble that remark, young lady

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:48

Tis but whimsy and mimsical flights of fancy. Tis play and delight and soft spoken curlicues.

Anyway, there's no point me going over the basics - I keep getting it all wrong - apart from rodent species...HAH!

This thread means whatever you want it to mean shiney. [deep]

That's gibbon wisdom btw. We are the wisest of all the apes.

MsMary will pay dearly for her plagiarism.

I am outraged. It's the yak milk. Since she started to drink, she has lost all morals.

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:50

Shiney, don a crinoline and rest a while on yon chaise. A handsome gent will be by shortly that Gibbon will steal, Widow will murder and Pag will stuff in a trunk.

Tsk tsk

you said guinea pig!

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:51

And look how hairy MsMary grows.

OP posts:
BeribbonedGibbon · 16/02/2011 11:51

and you are the man stealer!

Hullygully · 16/02/2011 11:51

Gerald was a guinea pig - Umami said so, so ner.

OP posts:
BeribbonedGibbon · 16/02/2011 11:52

Are you completely delusional woman?

BeribbonedGibbon · 16/02/2011 11:53

she said gerbil [deadpan]

Umami · 16/02/2011 11:53

I did't realise MsMary pamphleted about such light-hearted matters as gerbils.

When I have twins, I shall name them Mimsy and Whimsy.

Now whatever happened to dear ol' Rochester? And Minty? And Cutlass Lester? And Abercrombie?

BeribbonedGibbon · 16/02/2011 11:53

'And I would like to confirm, as Avid Reader of the Scrolls, that Gerald was originally a gerbil, but I think memory has bestowed hamsterhood upon him. And I reproduce here, in memoriam, Gibbon's original Ode to Gerald:'

Jins · 16/02/2011 11:54

Canasta!!!!

I have no embarrasing itch Madam

Umami · 16/02/2011 11:54

Please don't fight, gels. It will get the gentlemen's fettle up.

BeribbonedGibbon · 16/02/2011 11:54

see! see! she said gerbil again!

tell her widow, tell her!
