Tea room 22- A Farmhouse kitchen, anyone for a cuppa?

Welcome to the 22nd incarnation of the tea room. This time we are watching for spring from a cosy farmhouse kitchen. There is an aga for baking virtual cakes and an inglenook with toasty fire and settles to rest weary bones on. The distressed chintz sofa and footstool have arrived safe and sound and the priest hole is around here somewhere. On the Window sill is an aspidistra its pot surrounded by a hand holding circle of nearly naked mohawk babies, they have placards and a brazier.

Outside in the surrounding fields can be found the tea room horses, Earl and Lady Grey, also a herd of bison AND a Ha Ha to keep the bishops from invading.

Usual rules apply, no fisticuffs, if you want an argument go else where. Mellors the butler / game keeper will supply all sorts of things on request. Welcome Mums of one, none or many to the tea room of requirement.

Yeas, Scout, I have the same difficulty with calling it a woggle!

Oxeye - Feed him a sticky bun now, then he'll also have a pot belly comfortable physique.

Good morning! Breakfast on the Aga for those who want and need it.

amberlight · 10/02/2011 07:20

A woggle is something to keep your necker on? I live and learn.

::adds this to her 'Notebook on expressions and the right way to use them', with a side note of 'Must find out what a necker is before using the phrase in front of important company' ::

Thanks for the breakfast, Scout. Just what I need with today's events ahead.

Scout19075 · 10/02/2011 07:21

Necker -- those funny colored scarves Scouts and Guides wear with their uniform.

amberlight · 10/02/2011 07:23

Aha! Phew! That's not what I was first imagining at all. Blush

Tee2072 · 10/02/2011 08:01

Morning ladies.

Ah, breakfast, ta muchly!

Was hoping to take LCT to park today. Weather does not seem to agree.

Amber, big events today? Here's my hand, in case you need to hold it.

amberlight · 10/02/2011 08:33

Thanks re hand. Might need a bit of a hand-holding circle if the consultant has any more ruddy bad news to impart Hmm though at least we don't get a chance to think on it since we have to whizz straight over to the House of Lords. This is going to be a bizarre day, whichever way I look at it.

The toddler who ate my baby is now a walker!

amberlight · 10/02/2011 12:14

Oh phew - consultant says it's not spread to anywhere else!!!! Less surgery!!!!! Wheeeeeee!!!

Walking, Scout? Brilliant!

Who's for Bolly?

Scout19075 · 10/02/2011 12:36

I think it does mean that, Scount!

Three cheers for ToddlerScout!

oxeye · 10/02/2011 14:53

Great news Amber

I must say I thought a woggle on a necker more likely a sort of sex thing a la Prince Albert ring
but I'm a bit Dunbar saunders like that!! Do you ever have difficulty keeping a straight face scout?

Scout19075 · 10/02/2011 15:19

Well, I never had a necker as part of uniform growing up. My unit only uses them on outings/at camp. Never thought about it but I'm sure I will at camp this summer, oxeye!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 10/02/2011 18:28

{shock] at the mention of Prince Albert's, ahem, enhancement.

::reaches for smelling salts::

Cheers for ToddlerScout and even more cheers for Amber! I meant hip, hip, hooray sort of cheers but actually these will do very nicely, too.

Wine Wine Wine Wine

Scout19075 · 10/02/2011 19:30

Damn, I knew ToddlerScout slept too long this afternoon/got up too late....

Scout19075 · 10/02/2011 19:41

Only 100 messages left -- where are we going next?

amberlight · 10/02/2011 19:46

Blimey, we've used this tea room very fast!!

Back from House of Lords after this morning's consultant's appointment. Brain now totally fried but what a day!

::glugs bolly::

oxeye · 10/02/2011 19:58

What were you doing at h of l Amber, can you say? your life is exciting!!

oxeye · 10/02/2011 19:59

Can we go to the Rockies next please? I fancy that. And the snow is wonderful for those inclined that way ....

NormanTheForeman · 10/02/2011 20:01

Actually SoMuchToBits (my alter ego) had to do jury service about 5 years ago. The case was one of GBH against a woman who had bitten a man's penis. He had a Prince Albert. (There was photographic evidnce Shock)
