Ally Pally?

toadgirl · 06/08/2016 17:13

Have you thought about your future plans, Vanilla?

Do you think you could pull off a second thread? There seems to be quite a few people who have made this their home recently.

Vanilla on Pimms, Portia in a vat of Malmsey - just as well this thread's ending. We're the only sober ones here, toad.

Bettercallsaul1 · 06/08/2016 17:23

See how I've compromised by calling you toad, toadflax/toadgirl.

Alexandra Palace. Home to the first BBC broadcast and live TV gay wedding musical (which was wonderful and incredibly moving - did anyone see it?)

DH & I are watching the Brazil opening ceremony. I'm sure that's Judi Dench. She gets everywhere!!

Wow, a second thread? How very kind and flattering! OK - what shall we call it? "To start another thread that nobody responds to?"??

Oh, Ally Pally. Light dawns (finally).

toadgirl · 06/08/2016 17:41

Yes, I am sober!

I looked up "Ally Pally" as I didn't know either. It did come up with Alexandra Palace but I still wasn't sure I had it right. Just dumb luck from me.

toadgirl · 06/08/2016 17:42

Yes, a second thread.

Given that this one began on 26 July and it's nearly 1000 posts already, that's good going for any thread. I think you could definitely find material for a second.

Think big!

Hope Portia hasn't drowned in the Malmsey. (But I expect she's more pleasantly occupied with a certain gent.)

Unfortunately I have been rather breathless and had to have a couple of puffs

VanillaSugar · 06/08/2016 18:10

did I miss the end? Are you all still here?

PortiaCastis · 06/08/2016 18:16

We have been scything and drinking water

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/08/2016 18:19

I've been forced out of the arms of Richard Armitage to take DD to an activity. You'd think DH could have done it but he's all like, "why should you get to stay in bed with Richard?" Pfft.

PortiaCastis · 06/08/2016 18:22

Oh he could have let you carry on with your own activity MrsTP

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/08/2016 18:23

I know, right? So selfish.

PortiaCastis · 06/08/2016 18:26

Harumph!
My man is over zealous and I had an asthma attack.

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/08/2016 18:33

Ow Portia. Look after yourself.

Bettercallsaul1 · 06/08/2016 18:36

How many hours are you behind us, MrsTP? What time is it with you?

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/08/2016 18:44

It is 10.43 precisely. beep beep beep

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/08/2016 18:44

In the morning!

Bettercallsaul1 · 06/08/2016 18:44

I think your husband was completely unreasonable, by the way, and recommend that you LTB.
