AIBU Books Game Part Six

[MoominMymbleandMy]

Now, we're on thread number six!

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 think I'm seeing a ghost?

Moomin,why don't you think they can't be intelligent?

MCP,llandb!

...It stands to reason. Look at the size of their skulls. You couldn't fit much of a brain in those heads...

MCP, llandb!

not read any of these...have ordered i capture the castle from the library for starters

( jt has run off to find himself...he's exploring his artistic side with his new friends...hope none have got wives!)

Are you a Neanderthal, Moomin?

I'm really enjoying the True Blood books, actually - they are very trashy but fun!

MCP everyone...

Apologies if this has been done already.

Am I being unreasonable to think my wife could have been happy that the house was so clean and tidy, instead of going off on one about who'd done it?

Afternoon, all!

We never mind repeats, Sunny. It's amazing how many different AIBUS you can get out of one book. Sometimes two of us do the same one at once and it can take us quite a while to realise.

I think your wife sounds very U. I'd be a lot more grateful Does she object to witch's kittens perhaps, or workaholic elves?

...I'm not a Neanderthal. I'm a respectable builder by trade! And we didn't have any choice. We've spent a fortune on creating new attractions...

MCP when computer permits, llandb!

Hmm... are they dinosaurs, Moomin?

Totally stuck here!

It's busybodies she objects to, Moomin.

Are you following the love of your life, Treacle, or just on a bit of a jolly with your cat?

Was magic involved in cleaning your house, Staying?

AIBU to be spending a lot of time with my manservant?

NIMCP everyone!

Elephants, do you fancy your manservant or are you involving him in some evil scheme?

...I just need to get away for a bit - I'm fed up with all this talk of war! I know the house will be full of people since it's the holidays and I just don't think I can cope without a break...

Afternoon all! How you doin'?

SDTG, are you a King, by any chance, with a penchant for pink marigolds?

Of course I don't fancy him Treacle! I am a red-blooded male and already in love with a lady thank you very much.

Are you on holiday from school, Treacle?

MCP everyone, pleeease.

Not royalty, no, Poledra. Sunday is my busiest day, if that helps.

Evening, all (well, morning really)!

God yours sounds interesting Moomin

...Mind you it's not as if I'm having any luck with her, she won't even listen to my songs

Why are we up? Right that's it it's bedtime for me. Night

Precisely so, Moomin!

MCP everyone, am totally stuck!

...No, I'm not at school, but my daughter and her friend will be home for the hols. I think a spot of lunching at the Ritz should set me right before I head back to Cornwall...

OOhhh - do your daughter and her friend go to a school with a green uniform?

Yes, they do! Bottle-green, no less...

So when will you be Coming Home, Mrs Carey-Lewis - and how's that bad Loveday??

Hello! Back from BT-upgrade-of-exchange-imposed limbo (they told us, 'down for 15 mins some time in March' - a long 15 minutes!).

A bit stumped by all of these and MCP!

My character, who has tired of the Big Smoke... well, not in London, and no fires - unless you consider the cigars of the hedonists I had longed to meet. Funny about the remark about the countryside, polly - it's thanks to me that my nephew is no longer stuck in the sticks...

Still completely stumped here, and/or have no idea what anyone's was (if already guessed by someone)

We need a proper NIMCP emoticom, don't we? :D
(It will look like the drifing boat?)

what llandb said..!

Back later,I hope (personally I'd like an aargh! emoticon...)

But before I go,is your manservant considerably better endowed with brainpower than you are,Elephants?

Sunny,you are a man of the cloth then,are you?

Can't even muster a remotely intelligent question about Moomins!

MCP!

Oh blimey, what Pogle said about Elephants - and don't tell me I've done it again and am doing the same as someone else's

(There, that's a clue, but no, my nephew is not Bertie)

Well,I hope you're not an Aunt,llandb....

Working on the assumption that you are an uncle,any connection with the Arthurian myths at all?
(knowing you are not Bertie helps a little but the choice of available uncle/nephew pairs is still quite large!)

AIBU to like him?
