to think IPOAT gels will never marry well if they continue to be so fast?

[CaptainHornblower]

Still fascinated by the sparkly aperitif

Yes Miss Fids, I found it to be extremely healthful. I have been working on my flexibility ever since I came across it and will soon be able to achieve no. 614 (ankles crossed behind head exercise)

I am sure Madame Hully will be able to use my newfound skills when seeking a suitable spouse. Certainly I demonstrated a couple to Captain Turner and he was most interested.

Another glass ladies?

I'll just finish this one then I'll have a top up please

It's a link that is never going to get old Fids!

here's another link that never gets old

actually both together would perhaps be the perfect link. Did you ever see that film with him and Meg Ryan where he an aristocrat who had fallen into the future? Terrible chick-flick really, but he was all stiff upper lip and polished top boots in it, fab it was!

Indeed. I have just been inspired to open a bottle of Sekt (German sparkling wine) which a friend recommended to me. Was rather wary as I usually buy the local stuff here but am going back tomorrow with a tractor and trailer to buy lots more as it is very nice.
And it cost 2 pounds 30p.

That's what I call a good start to the weekend, Jins.
He looks thirsty.

Jins that has set my heart aflutter and a fear I may faint! I will withdraw to the....well drawing room...in fact, for a little light screen covering.

Lawks-a-plenty! I fear I took the wrong wormhole from Buenos Aires, and missed most of the intergalactic fun. I had to hitch a lift from the nearest spaceport and have been working my passage back across the galaxy under the close attentions of Captain Reynolds.

If it weren't for this scientist chappy and his splendid ring, I'd still be hard at it under the Captain.

I think they are getting restless down there. This one looks particularly fierce.

I think I could take her out. It's the really sassy ones that I'm concerned about.

Ahh, I have a hand fashioned layered brocade apron I could lend to you that will stop a bullet....it is the slow blade that penetrates the shield that concerns me.

Now just be careful.. There's
A lot of quantum going on down there. It'll sour the wine. There'll be tears.

Concerned about the possibility of the wine souring (and Yule will soon be here, the Reverend will expect a glass of Madeira), I ventured down to the cellar. I was perturbed to find this sign on the door.

Undaunted I waited a while until the Nediams appeared. Their rituals seem odd but harmless. Nevertheless I had Watkins secure the door to the wine cellar to prevent possible contamination.

Mistress Umami, I saw your link just before I attended a dull PTA PCC meeting and was considering borrowing one of the Nediams to enliven the proceedings.

I'm scared of the nediams and I don't care who knows it.

I shall be having light tray suppers in my room until they have been satisfactorily contained

I'm scared of the light supper trays - one day you get this and then next only this.

My liver can scarce keep up.

Have they invented concrete yet? we could cement 'em in. Don't want to let those fire rituals get out of hand, think of poor Mr Rochester, He's been through enough with Hully.

We have no need of concrete. Cook has been making porridge again.
The village urchins seem to like it but I think it is inadvisable for their diet as they have developed an unnerving habit of breaking into song after breakfast.

I fear there is havoc being wrought in the cellar. The Nediams and Maidens are ignoring everything dear Mr Newton and Mr Einstein worked out so carefully.

Is the Hall entirely stable?

The Hall is in grave peril. We must charge up the teleporter and make haste to send the Nediams and Maidens through the Wormhole.

Quick. Set the LoveBatonPhasers to "stun".

Where to send them though?

Oh oh oh oh

Send them into the other Mumsnet Halls

It's madness out there today - you can tell it's Friday
