I'm pissed on a thread.

MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 11:27

eerr,?

MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 11:27

Oh! Got it!

Umami · 01/03/2011 11:55

You could do the 'print your own postage' thing on the Royal Mail website. It would not be franked, but it would look authentic, and you'd have to be of a very suspicious bent to notice lack of franking.

Or you could take your lumps Grin

Ooooooooooooh!

What gives with Roland? Have you had to close again?

BeribbonedGibbon · 01/03/2011 13:35

Firstly! I am doing a tiny ape dance of joy for Hullygirl!! Grin

I am also sending all good vibes to Mimiboy for 5pm and keeping everything crossed Smile

and what the fuckity fuck are those daffs doing on MN when we still haven't got a [deadpan] face

Pagwatch · 01/03/2011 13:39

Fabulous news hully.
Just fess up. She won't mibd as she got in. She would stick things in you if she hadn't got in but the dance of joy may save you.

Ds1 is due home from Latin mocks. I wonder if he is crying in a ditch somewhere.

Having fab inset day with ds2. We have done every charity shop in a 3 mile radius. Grin

BeribbonedGibbon · 01/03/2011 13:54

Glad you are having a lovely day Pag Grin I bet DS1 has done brilliantly!

Hullygully · 01/03/2011 14:15

She will mind.

She contains deep morasses of suspicion and preternatural cunning.

Dh and I are both scared now, to the extent that we have just got the dog to walk on the letter with muddy paws to disguise the crinkled pre-openedness...

Pagwatch · 01/03/2011 14:17

Hahaha.

I am sorry for your plight Hully but the notion of you and dh doing csi doggy tracks on the letter is bloody marvellous.

Gibber. He is home. Apparently not too bad.
We'll see......

Hullygully · 01/03/2011 14:18

funnily enough csi is her fave programme. She is completely addicted.

OP posts:
MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 14:20

well that's you banged to rights, eh? A forensic examination of the letter in her super dooper laboratory will reveal that the glue sealing the envelope had been subjected to water vapour over boiling point AFTER having been sealed.

Pagwatch · 01/03/2011 14:21

Well then you just need to work out a plausible csi style scenario involving a finger print, a hooker, a slightly geeky lab coated man and a few lines of coke.
It will be fine.

Or distract her with kisses and cake

MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 14:22

Oh god, Ineed the enire world wide population of JewBulLu to pray with me....

I am prostrate with anxiety

MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 14:23

bah

BeribbonedGibbon · 01/03/2011 14:27

Glad it went well for him Pag Smile

Hullster, you just know she is going to say nice try with the ol' 'muddy dog paws on already opened letter' trick

Your only hope is to look outside for puddles, drop it in one and blame the postman.

'sorry, we had to open it to stop the letter inside being ruined. The postman was very apologetic blah blah blah...

Umami · 01/03/2011 14:28

Oh yes, sprinkle letter with coke and cheap scent.

Hullygully · 01/03/2011 14:29

Not only are we all praying, we are colour coded and wearing pointy hats here

OP posts:
MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 14:29

I've had an idea, why not say the letter hasn't come, but call up instead with her theire?

Umami · 01/03/2011 14:29

JewLuBu prayers for Mimi

BeribbonedGibbon · 01/03/2011 14:30

Mimi, am keeping everything crossed

Hullygully · 01/03/2011 14:34

Mimi, she would laugh with scorn in my face. You have no idea.
