Because we probably shouldn't still be hanging out in AIBU, four (or is it five?) threads later.

I've been reading all the lovely transcripts, and although I started Prefects yesterday, I don't want to finish it, because it's the last one! :-(

Joan Baker has just suggested that we sneak down to the Bier Festival in the village. There are some boys with mopeds down there. I've read Miss Annersley's rules again and we seem to be okay.

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 21:26

Special milk? She confiscated the gin and Joan's new book we were reading. :(

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 21:27

Bier festival sounds good. Boys on mopeds, even better!

Summrbreezing · 13/07/2014 21:29

Boys on mopeds?

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 21:30

DeWee my lamb I'm sure we're still allowed to snigger at Joey, just not at her twinset. Shall we send a deputation to Miss Annersley to seek clarification?

I am thinking you lot will be hemming sheets for eternity. Neither Madame nor Miss Annersley will approve of your hot pants suit Summer

....Unless.... perhaps if it was lime green hot pant suit.... perhaps then you could get away with it and they would turn a blind eye....

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 21:40

And how brilliant will you all look, showing up in your lime green velveteen hot pant suits, in the lime green and cream minibus?

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 21:43

Well we're all quite tall and slim too, so we should be ok

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 21:44

Tall is 5'2" right? Grin

Vintagejazz · 13/07/2014 21:44

Would lime green eyeshadow and lime green dangly earrings be allowed?
Anyhow we're wasting time. Joan Baker's already left and she'll hog all the boys and mopeds. You know how fast quick acting she is.

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 21:47

Well she has a perm... and she can guzzle gin like anything.
We should get a move on girlies. Them boys need us!

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 21:52

I don't think I can come. M-L is my dormy pree and she's so frightfully on the spot. :(

DeWee · 13/07/2014 21:53

Robin and halucinations?

Vintagejazz · 13/07/2014 21:54

Shit, the dormy door is locked and I can see Mary Lou through the keyhole with a smug smirk on her face.

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 13/07/2014 21:55

I dunno girls, it looks like snow and we don't want to be caught in a blizzard with our hot pants.

Mind you, I'd hate for anyone to think I'm a funk....

Vintagejazz · 13/07/2014 21:56

Gosh, hot pants and doctors coming to rescue us?

Let's just break this bloody door down.

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 21:56

The lengths some people will go to to engineer a chance encounter with Gaudenz in the goatherd hut during an avalanche.

Vintage I can hear her clarion glee from here. Alas.

Marcipex · 13/07/2014 21:57

Sheets into a rope and over the balcony you go!

Is the Tzigane a boy band!

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 21:57

Make sure you have your scarf crossed over your chest, and your proper nailed boots on. Then you'll be OK, plus they'll go splendidly with the lime green hot pants.

MooncupGoddess · 13/07/2014 22:00

Gosh, these plans all sound a bit Trebizond for me. Hope you all have a lovely time snogging spotty boys and drinking the local dodgy weissbier before getting lost in the snow on the way back.

Personally I'm going to make the most of the peace and quiet to get on with Lady Chatterley's Lover, accompanied with a mug of hot milk and brandy. (Top tip: Matey never queries hot milk. If it smells a little odd she just assumes Dr Jack has found a new sedative to use.)

JoeyMaynardsghost · 13/07/2014 22:01

MaryLou is evil. She just locked me in the splasheries.

Vintagejazz · 13/07/2014 22:02

Matey's on the prowl. She's confiscating everyone's hotpants.

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 13/07/2014 22:03

She probably just wants to play 'identify your own underthings' again.

It's not evil, Joey, and it's not cheek. It's just Mary-Lou!
