AIBU - Books part 2

[theyoungvisiter]

as you were ladies.

I am not getting any of these and I thought I was quite well-read.

Moomin' I'm not sure I'd want you to be my sister but would find it quite amusing if, say, you were a colleague's sister

When someone tells me what your book is, I'm gonna read it

Meanwhile, AIBU to resent my buffoon of a boss and his insistence that we eat his hideous tinned sausages?

Poledra, llandb, I am not their sister but they are mine!
Sausages....hmmm

llandb, more clues on the sausages please.

Hmm, had there only been one sister I'd have taken a punt that your name was William - but I'll Just have to try harder (and beg another clue)

Snorkers, I believe! Though it turns out that not all his countrymen are so crass.

'Night all

I did have a misspent youth but I redeemed myself later on by rescuing one of my sisters from penury after her savings were lost in a bank failure.

llandb, are you an obnoxious Aussie, who should have been torpedoed (but wasn't)!?

Oh, I shall have to wait until tomorrow to know now! How Cruel.

Night all.

Now, Moomin', don't take the acid with me - it's that boss I'm whingeing about who is the obnoxious Aussie! I'm starting to regret giving up the journo gig to volunteer for this. It is indeed most Cruel; we're all at Sea as to how to handle him. Perhaps he'll pretend to develop a duodenal ulcer and be discharged from active service.

Puzzled, puzzled...

Oh, er, or rather, don't come the acid with me.... taking the acid may have to wait a decade or two

AIBU to fall in love with a woman who's in prison accused of murdering her lover?

Sunny - maybe I'm just being dim but can I please pretty please have a little clue?

Hi Sunny, was it a certain aristocratic sleuth who took this whimsical notion?

llandb, sorry, sorry, should have thought before typing - you have nothing in common with Bennett!

Well, the lady concerned isn't proud of her appearance as such, but could be said to be vain.....

Or even Vane! Warn her to watch out for her future sister-in-law. That woman is Strong Poison.

Any takers on my hero. He is hurt, after having been adapted for the telly recently, he was sure you would recognise him!

Spot on, Moomin. If no-one had got it, I was going to throw in a clue about my friend Mrs Merdle.

As for yours - either I haven't been watching enough tv recently (unlikely - ) or I'm being more dim than normal this morning (far more likely - ).

Oooh - hang on, though - it's not Skellig, is it?

Much more scope for period costume, Sunny.

Two eyes, nose, mouth but no liking for Snorkers

Totally puzzled (and rubbish at posting)....

'Night all

He was played by a professional (I believe).

Night all!

Oh, oh, I know! Were both sisters dames, and was there an incident with a precious piece of lace?

A piece of lace, a cup of milk, a greedy cat....and an emetic. Yes CJ!

Now AIBU to run away from my new school with just sixpence in my pocket, and disguised by a fake limp and a friend's spectacles?

It sounds daring, but how will your friend see without the specs? And, as usual, I mst beg a clue.

Hi llandb, that's the cunning part! my friend's running away with me, and he's disguised himself by not wearing his specs. He's also got a fake limp and sixpence in his pocket.
