Swagger Inn thread 105...come one, come all <ylt> <ywb>

[Flopsy28]

To perve over discuss the BBC Musketeers serieses'sz 1 & 2.
Photos, Rudey dreams and washing welcome.

Right MUST get to work.

Can we get some elves in to fix MN whilst I'm there please?

Have a great day wenches.

1. no he is Jhaqen Hgar (or something) and I luffs him he is a faceless man and is like an assassin. I luffs him. Oh, and don't get too attached to Dany's new friend. Er, can't remember his name, Daaario? But, NLT. I haven't spoilt you.
2. err story line? And he has a great story, and I think at this point catlyn is desperate and thinks releasing him might save them..?
3. at this point I don't think she knows, but I find Dany's story gets a bit meh around about now. And there are a lot of people who think she will team up with Jon Snurrr at some point but I'm not so sure. Maybe?
4. this whole bit was different in the book. Ramsey Snow/Bolton (the bastard son of Roose (?) who betrays catlyn and Robb) does indeed torture and maim theon, but we don't see it as much and it takes longer (I think) and theon is unrecognisable even to his sister at the end if it. It's really really awful. Even for him.
5. yes, I think they are supposed to have gone through an old little known gate aren't they? It was at an old deserted castle (like castle black but better I think there is some olde worlde magic tyoe stuff there as well) so the is a known way to get in/out in fact it's where bran sees Samwell I think? Also the wildlings have been able to climb over for centuries.

Tyrion is indeed ace.

Morning wenches.

I used to do that Issy, not so much now with DS1 who is growing extra fast. Are the pjs likely to still fit in December?

Good luck today Flopsy

Welcome back Fancy. Grrrr re the late people on the plane.

I went off GoT when Drogo wasn't in it any more.

Have wonderful days eveywench whatever you're doing

Elves you say Comtess?

Shall we have some more Commodities?

Comtesse...it makes me weep with happiness that you love GofT :)
I knew you would.
I think Norah has pretty much summed it all up...the faceless man thing is a story arc which will become clear in time.
Fancy...welcome back!
Not sure what we are soung today. Got dhs car (aka the tank) so we could go out but weather looks a bit meh.
Ds1s clothes fit...hurrah! This week, anyway.
Will pop and see mum. My brother had 2 days off over the weekend and didn't go anywhere near her :( I think she is upset but of course would never tell me (it would never do to criticise golden boy!) bitter, me!?
DC are currently watching avengers assemble.
Your favourite supermarket manager is in it! :)

and I also knew tyrion would be your fave :)
Gladiator is our film for today.

Morning wenchi. Busy one today so won't be on much. Or if I am on here tell me to fuck off as I have stacks to do.

Norah get creating. Floppers hope today goes well.

What Norah said re GoT questions Comtess. Oh and I think Jaime was meant to be a trade, you give me my daughters and you can have your son back type of thing. Not her best decision eh. Basically GRRM (author) is a twisted pervert with an obsession for Daeny so you have to put up with the nasty bits and blondie faffing about overseas. But it's bloody good. Errr, how far through it are you? Got to the end of S3 yet?!?......

Oh and Tyrion. Yes. Would. Brilliant.

Morning all.

Comtess - what Norah said. Pretty much anything which is a bit will be because of plot/not finishing the story too quickly. e.g. "Oh look, i have dragons, I shall kill all the white walkers, marry you-know-nothing-jon-snow and feed all the annoying Lannisters (i.e. not Tyrion and I suppose we can keep Jaime if you really want) to my dragons, and we'll all live happily ever after. Sorry - what was that. another series. Oh... hmmm. Maybe I'll faff around in the hot place for a it longer then...

There is the most fantastic essay by Nick Lowe about plot devices/coupons/tokens at news.ansible.uk/plotdev.html which makes me giggle every time I read it (and may well be part of the reason I went off fantasy as a genre for quite a while) not that I'm saying Mr Martin is a bad writer, but having read the essay I now tend to read other stuff and go "Oh - look. Plot device/coupon/token" and grin to myself.

And speaking of plot. Which I know we're not meant to. But in S2 The Return. Did anyone else go "Eh?" when Athos tells Catherine they were too young to be betrothed and she responds with "and then you brought that woman home..." So, too young to be betrothed but he's old enough to marry? I know, I'm sorry, we're not meant to talk about plot, but... WTAF writers?

Anyway, off to RL and a work phone call...

MrsB - idf yuo're reading this, have a fab holiday - now go away and Doooooo IIIIiiiiiiiiittttt stuff.

Maybe he was just trying to be nice? or maybe he believed it but Milady was so fab he changed his pov?

Hello wenches

Good luck today Flops

Didn't anyone think my melon pic was funny? I think it was

Have a lovely day

I loved your melons ww ????

My take on the return us that they were betrothed at a very young age and grew up knowing they were to marry one day?

Morning . Was woken up slighly earlier than planned by FancyCat nudging an eyelid open with her nose , so have been having breakfast in bed and catching up with the thread - congrats on the job badders!

Looking forward to Commodities rewatch....

Is that re watch tonight?
DC are driving me nuts.
They cannot play nicely without play fighting becoming real fighting.
Sigh.
Oh and ds2 broke his glasses again last night! I was only gone for 1.5 hours!
Grr.
Going to put gladiator on soon...that won't encourage violence will it? :)

No, I'm just looking forward to Sunday . I will need to do an ep 2 rewatch before then, such a chore!

What did you do on your vacation Fancy

Aahhhhh. That makes more sense now Badders So what he actually meant was 'we shouldn't have been betrothed at such a young age because we were too young'

OK, best go and put my 'GoodParent(TM)' hat on. Planning to take DS to library to look at summer reading challenge, since weather is miserable here and we aren't going to be playing outside. He will winge and say he wants more tv/computer time. I will get cross. We will all feel miserable.

MrsB can I hide in your suitcase please?
Badders bad luck re DS glasses I think re-watch is Sunday - nothing to stop it being tonight as well apart from DH wanting me to pay attention to whatever he puts on TV poor DH. I need to instigate some MN-free nights..... Or not.

Well that's my take on it anyway
Russell crowe has just unleashed hell

It was a city based holiday ww, so saw some sights & sampled some local food & DD managed to find a cat cafe. I thought of you & liv

Did you go to one of the fancy cafées? Ooh a cat café

Not the really fancy (nto) one's, but we had one next door to the hotel that we went to a lot for cakes. There were annoying kids (not mine!) in the cat cafe that were bothering the cats who were standoffish with them. FancyCat would've had someone's arm off in the same situation. And quite right too

Any hbf's though fancy?

Oh, and you might have missed some snug action....

Not as many as were in WenchVac location norah . It's also harder (fnarr) to be permanently on HBF alert when you're accompanied by the DC.

The snug you say? Excellent, shall save that up for this evening as a little treat for when I've actually done something useful today.

Lady Dinah's in London is fabulous and it's on the cat's terms, so thats great

More property porn, and in my price range as well
