... to think that because I can't see a new IPOAT thread I should start one myself?

[PrincessFiorimonde]

Especially as I want to wish CheerfulYank a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY for today. Hope you are having a lovely day.

And here is the patron saint of IPOAT playing Happy Birthday To CY!

Did you have to call for hay-alp?

You weren't on the M2 this morning were you? You made me late for work!

Alas poor hully.
Send fido to barrouche injury attorney at law and Veterinarians 4 U
They will see him right.

Every thread I read, you've already been there

Advise DH that his concern is greatly appreciated and yes, a full-time chauffeur would be most accepatable, thank you.

Aaaaah the humble dh, their concern oft takes the guise of slight beratement and accusation. A bath certainly and get dh to attend to canine needs, methinks.

I have showered dh with light dudgeon and maintain a dignified and slightly reprooving aloofness.

I may dissect a prawn or two by way of venting.

reprooving?

Hully feels much better now

Mr Hully regrets his accusatory looks

Gerald is not sure about the newest residents of the Hall

Pag tries to to earn a little extra money for walnuts and bronzing oil

oh bravo!

Ooooh. Posted from my iPhone using swishy new app

Dear ladies, i must be away for a breif while. The kindly Dr Ezekeiekeiekeil has found my back pain was not caused by carrying sister Hully over the mountain rather time after too much maiden juice but is something even the Culler, bless his chatisement rod, cannot cure without pointy knives and a stay in a home of healing. I fear i am somehwt indisposed and in serious need of more than maiden juice :(

Dear Lady Riven, may the Prawn of Healing be with you during this time, along with the Lobster of Analgesia and the Potted Shrimps of Acceptable Hospital Food. May the Great Langoustine watch over you and your family, and also the Barber-Surgeon who will heal you.

Tahnkyou Lady Umami. I shall still be here and abouts but may not be taking a turn with the dashing Mr Rochester

Oh poor Lady Riven, must you repair thee to a Hostel of Healing and undergo the surgeon's knife? If so, try to have a light posset beforehand and a good few healing tisanes afterwards. I do hope it isn't too grim and you will soon be back on your dainties. I shall ask the Reverend to speak a special healing prayer in tongues. With writhing.

Ah mistress Riven,
Please take care and sip deeply of the healing waters. Rest and eschew the advances of even the most persistent of those manly, menly, men of healing.
Return soon, resorted.

I will roast some nuts for your return.

resorted?
WTF am I on about?

Hully - I love your quote in the Rules. Very you
will you sign my copy

Wot's my quote?

Return soon, resorted

hadn't noticed that heh heh heh

your quote is
" and then kill the other children when nobody's looking"

A childcare book. Hahaha
Fucking brilliant

Seriously brilliant.

I was reading it in the pub at lunchtime and laughed out loud. People peered at me.
I was then undone though. Man sat near me and shouted into his phone.
"why the fuck is that man shouting?" I muttered at pagboy.

Man, MAN! Why the fuck is shouting? MANNNNN....
