Thanks tikkabilla (especially to all your Playmo people who helped to ensure Norman's victory). And yes, wine is definitely allowed!

The tea drinking party advocates tea bags, rather than loose-leaf? I was right to suspect their fluffy manifesto.

Will there be coffee/tea apartheid, am I now a lesser citizen as I don't get my tea bag credits?

Actually Norman is a big fan of loose-leaf (which is what I always use) but it's very hard to find in Playmoland.

No, Norman is so laid back he is happy for everyone to drink what they like.

New photos are now on my profile....

In fact he may extend the teabag credits to include any beverage, as he is so happy to have won the election!

rofl at the post result riot photo. Poor old Adrian has been knocked to the ground. I love how he is still brandishing his results.

Michael mate white trousers = stains
So either you are a hard working and yet heavily stained beach police man (never a good look), or you are a crisp white and yet not fully involved in your community crime prevention officer.

If Jack gets convicted of the attempted theft, that rules him out as chancellor, surely?

Michael I notice you were playing a very active part in the riot control in a cynical attempt to prove slubber wrong - well done that man!

DS is going to be so jealous impressed when he realises how you have spent the day while he has been at school

oh god, I'm so depressed - the human being election result was bad enough but now my Playmobil candidate has lost too

Well he has been on a school trip to Aldeburgh today, so at least he will have had fun! And I spent the morning helping in his school library then dashed home as fast as possible to do some Playmobiling.

And I'll leave Norman's party scene set up for him.

I am a bit worried about the playmobil criminal justice system though - I have never seen a judge - or a barrister .... I do think Jack needs fair representation.

Well I agree with you there stealth, there are plenty of police but no judges/courts.

I bet our Forest Woodsman and his good lady wife with lockable gun cabinet and woodshed could dole out some serious justice if push came to shove.

The police usually manage quite well here - but I am sometimes worried about excessive police brutality. There seems to be a lot of handcuffing, truncheoning and shooting goes on. Ah well, perhaps it's just as well Michael didn't win the election.....

yes, overenthusastic trunchioning whilst wearing the white trousers is not a good look for a (playmobil) PM.

Do you think Norman will be impressed that this thread has made the front page?
