It's election day for the Playmobil people in our house....

[SoMuchToBits]

Norman's office has been turned into a polling station. Brian and Len are checking off the voters against the electoral roll. Ken is conducting the exit poll. The candidates are:-

Norman the Foreman (Tea drinking party)
Bossy Ross the lifeboat coxswain (Lifesaving party)
Michael the beach policeman (Law and order party)
Jack Jellyhead the robber (Legalise robbery party)
Father Christmas (Christmas all year round party)

Early results from the exit poll suggest that the tea drinking party and lifesaving party are doing rather well.....

[woodchuck]

Norman for me too, although he looks rather similar to our long lost forklift truck driver

[woodchuck]

Not my dh. he is also forklift truck driver but is not lost.

[JackBauerIsZonerrific]

I am disgusted at teh blatant racism put out by Norman's party here and that you are all okay with this.
I don't like coffee, why shoudl I suffer and have to pay extra taxes on my coffee because I am not the same as the rest of you.

In ym disgust I am voting for Jack jellyhead, and the first order of business after we get in will be to STEAL ALL YOUR TEA

[GeeWhizz]

Bossy Ross has my vote.

[VoteOliviaMumsnet]

have seen the pics now
EXCELLENT stuff SMTB
I'm voting norman but hoping that he's going to run a referendum on Coffee Drinking

[EdgarAllenPoll]

Norman the Foreman.

'Trust Tea!'

[elliemental]

NORM!

[DontCallMeBaby]

I'm a civil servant you know, tea all the way.

[elliemental]

drink tea!

[OtterInaSkoda]

DontCallMeBaby as a civil servant, aren't you meant to be politically impartial?

[JackBauerIsZonerrific]

Bugger, that shoudl have read
'I don't like tea!'

Coffee fascists.

[EVye]

I agree with Norman.

[SoMuchToBits]

Norman loved the "Drink tea" link, elliemental!

[southeastastra]

ooh this on twitter now, the new mn election

[SoMuchToBits]

Really??? lolol!

[NorbertDentressangle]

We're big fans of Norman the Foreman here but can I just ask what his stance on crime is please?

Its just that as I sit here MNing I can hear the alarm going off on the glass case in the other room as the jewel thieves are up to their old tricks again....and not a policeman in sight

[SoMuchToBits]

Norman is very good pals with Michael the beach policeman, and is a fan of law and order in Playmoland. In fact, Norman currently has his arm bandaged, as he was shot by a robber 2 days ago. He had to leave his hospital bed to do some last-minute canvassing....

[DontCallMeBaby]

Otter, oh bloody hell, yes I am, I've been so careful in real life and now I've cast caution aside for a tea-drinking, moustachioed plastic homunculus.

[SoMuchToBits]

Norman likes a nice peaceful environment in which to enjoy his cuppa...

[OtterInaSkoda]

The policemen are all posing down on the beach, Norbert. I think there's somekind of Mr Universe competition going on. This is entirely unrelated to the Election - the contest was arranged long before the Election was called. It could have been a disaster but fortunately the organisers have seen the funny side of it and many of the contestants have adopted a politics theme for their outfits.

[OtterInaSkoda]

Honestly, Dont. Is it any wonder the civil service is in crisis?

[elliemental]

It's looking like a Norman conquest here...

[SoMuchToBits]

I will have to go out soon, but will check back in later in the evening to see how voting is going....

Keep casting your votes!

[GordonGallumbits]

well i would have though norman would get my vote but i'm finding michael the beach policeman strangely alluring and attractive.

would it be shallow to let this swing my vote?
