I've just heard that Adrian the returning officer is about to announce the results of the Playmobil election......

Cheers to Norman! (Is wine still allowed btw?)

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 11:51

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.

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 07/05/2010 11:58

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

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 11:58

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!

I think JackJellyhead for Chancellor too.

Slubberdegullion · 07/05/2010 12:40

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.

stealthsquiggle · 07/05/2010 12:51

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!

Slubberdegullion · 07/05/2010 12:54

lol

so he is

I take it all back.

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 13:24

Jack Jellyhead has been arrested and taken to the police station for questioning...

Norman would like to invite everyone to his post-election party. All welcome

Just want to say thanks for this thread, it has cheered me up when I was having bad day

Well done Norman

stealthsquiggle · 07/05/2010 13:44

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

sethstarkaddersmum · 07/05/2010 13:46

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

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 13:47

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.

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 14:40

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.....

Slubberdegullion · 07/05/2010 14:45

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

SoMuchToBits · 07/05/2010 14:47

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