Sorry, but Oh Ha Ha He! MrsWottinger, you do paint a very pretty picture. Can't stop laughing at the absurdity of it. BUT NOW for the serious part. Pull pin from grenade and gently (I SAID GENTLY!!!!) lob from upper storey window.

F*ing Weirdos!

ahem...

MrsPontyPine · 18/04/2007 17:14

MrsWottinger, you could be talking about us, we feel country dancing instills a sense of disipline into our children. I just wish they wouldn't keep going missing though.

MrsWottinger · 18/04/2007 17:15

oh i bloody knew you'd be along soon enough.

oh no

don't tell me they're morris dancing

anyone who morris dances is being totally unreasonable

shouldbedoingsomethingelse · 18/04/2007 17:15

At least they arent out roaming the streets and worrying old people.
They are enjoying a bit of family time.
It may no be everyones "thing" but I having just read a thread about food (and other things) being thrown over fences I think I would be grateful its nothing worse.

MrsPontyPine · 18/04/2007 17:17

We never see you these days, not since we bought the job lot of wallpaper.

dumbymummy · 18/04/2007 17:17

Just being lighthearted, Niceglasses. When you put it like that

Lovecat · 18/04/2007 17:17

Sorry, the penny has just dropped... God I'm slow today!

Yes, kill them all! They probably smell funny too, what with being washed with that manky sponge that never gets rinsed out...

FromGirders · 18/04/2007 17:18

Well MrsW, aren't you slightly calling the kettle black? I'm sure you're family must enjoy dancing too?

shouldbedoingsomethingelse · 18/04/2007 17:18

Chop down that enormous tree for one thing. And tell the Father to get a shave. He's a disgrace.

FromGirders · 18/04/2007 17:20

In fact I'm sure I've seen you conga-ing round a bandstand . . .

MrsPontyPine · 18/04/2007 17:21

I happen to like a fine moustache

niceglasses · 18/04/2007 17:23

I'm lost. If I were you I'd have some wine (like wot I have in me hand 'ere) and join in. Bells, ther're good for the soul.

MrsWottinger · 18/04/2007 17:29

it might look like conga-ing, fromgirders, but in reality we're clinging on for dear life while the other daft great lummoxes bang around beside us.

GreebosWhiskers · 18/04/2007 17:33

Do they all look alike? Are they wearing matching outfits? Do they look like they're enjoying themselves or are their expressions all blank? Sounds a bit sinister to me . . .

Or maybe I've just read too many trashy horror novels

Twinmummyx2 · 18/04/2007 19:52

It's not me!!!! I don't dance as i would get 2 black eyes, and DP is mostly on battlefield..mostly......

a couple of my boys can't resist dancing to Mr Timberlake.....the others just play football......

....and we don't own 1 single bell.....

...do..a dear..a female...

kslatts · 18/04/2007 20:27

I can think of much worse things to have to listen to, a couple of years ago we had a family who would constantly argue, often in the middle of the night, luckily they moved away.

expatinscotland · 18/04/2007 20:28

Thank fuck we're soon moving to the middle of nowhere.

I'm so sick of other peoples' constant noise.

powder28 · 18/04/2007 20:32

Are they grapevining and dosey dowing? Are they singing Billy Ray Cyrus 'Achey breaky heart'?
