AIBU Books Game Part 4

[MoominMymbleandMy]

Well, we made it to a fourth thread!

As before, we frame an AIBU from the point of view of a character in a book and everyone tries to guess the book and/or the character.

Everyone welcome to play/time-waste as much or as little as they please.

New thread, new AIBU...

AIBU to refuse to read aloud?

Yes,same question,Snow! More clues on your parachute jump would be nice ,Moomin - assuming you are functional after being up til 3am!

...my husband was just trying to do his best for us ,it wasn't as if he did anything that really mattered...

..well, yes. Only now my father and brother are to join the Crusade as well. Apparently, the King has decreed it so.

Just had a brainwave - are you Annie Wilson, living in Oxford, Pogle?

Oh well, I was wondering if you were a critter, Pogle!

Snow, are you mustering in Venice for the Fourth Crusade?

...I know it's in a good cause. But what if something goes wrong...

Well done,Snow!I was trying to find a different angle,Harriet and Peter a bit too obvious(you were still pretty fast though!)

Ohhh! The penny finally drops - Gaudy Night! That was clever, Pogle!

So,about your parachute jump,then....

Ooooh, I got it right Thanks Pogle.

You mean there will be another Crusade? We shall fail? Are you a prophet, Moomin?

Ho hum, obviously an awful lot of the Crusaders must have had dysfunctional family relationships, and been rather fond of horses!

Third attempt for the Third Crusade - is the horse a very appropriate colour for the battlefield?

...I never wanted to do a parachute jump in the first place! She backed me into a corner...

I suppose he is, come to think of it.....

Still up in the air on your parachute jump, I'm afraid.

Well,I'm racking my brains over this crusade thing ,and I can't produce any books with all the clues solved! Someone answer it soon please - I must know!

(and the parachute jump was ringing bells until I realised that I was thinking of an episode of Soldier,Soldier....)

Blood red?

...It's to raise money for the orphanage. The trouble is I've never been able to say no to her. But jumping out of a plane isn't really the same as fixing up old machinery for free...

Brilliant Moomin, a Blood Red Horse he is, name of Hosanna.

...and Mr JLB Matekoni always was a soft touch for that woman!!!

Ah,have now tracked this down via Google - nevvererdovit,but it sounds good!

Meanwhile, AIBU to want to ride on the swing?

What Katy Did?

Not unreasonable, but a tad unwise when your aunt said no, I think llandb.

I need to go and read a bit to find another AIBU - night all (sleepy up at 3.30am smiley)

chegirl and Snow, you would be quite right if I were Katy, but you see, I'm only pocket-sized!

'Night, Snow! Happy dreaming up AIBUs!

So,AIBU to consider poaching?

Night all!

Pogle, are you going to use raisins?

Oh, and, 'night, Pogle!

'Night all from llandb-land, too!
