Zombie - the old lush needs us, so rally around you Phalanxers

[Fiderer]

Drinking is allowed. Encouraged even.

Smoking is allowed.

Weeping & wailing most definitely not so out there with you.

Kisses & hugs v welcome.

All fine Fid thanks. Just slightly sleep deprived under the circumstances.

You are welcome to my whiskey rations for the foreseeable. I actually would love a glass of something Zombie approved being drank on my behalf.

unborn I'll take your rations.

I went round a gala pie factory once. The egg is reconstituted and made into a huge egg sausage before being incorporated into the pie.

I've stuck to Melton Mowbray ever since.

3 minutes until the next batch of mince pies are done.

Another one delurking

I will toast you tonight Zombie

I wish you a peaceful trip to your next adventure Zombie. I hope you know how many lives around the world you have touched and inspired.

Come on fid. up your jumper, down yer pants, in yer socks!!! Failing that we the phalanx will come over and wrench them from the little darlings hands shouting we are the champions!!! 😘😘🎼🎼🎼

Fatty of course I insist

It's 6pm somewhere in the world.

They're so sweet though. 2b I mean, not the fecking recorders. They're small & friendly & 1b are even tinier so I gush at them. I've got the hormonal lot

Hope the worst reprobate & most lovely of women is off her head on morphine & not getting that I'm filling her threads with wittery tosh.

Ooh, though, I could call the Recorder Game - "ZombieGame". Not that I'd ever forget her, but still a small part of ArseEndForrin thinking of her.

Godspeed Zombie 💐

Am delurking Zombie. I have followed you for years. Wish I had done it earlier. Much love to you and I hope your journey is peaceful and filled with love and light. I may have had a lot of wine.

I'm a lurker, tho I posted a couple of times (dunno if that makes me a Phalanx?) anyway, my heart sank when I saw the update and I drew an audible breath inward in shock. I'm so very sad for you.

You're a very cool person, Zombie, and Zombilad must be so proud of you!!!!

When the time comes I wish you peace. Sleep well.

(I too feel inspired to 'do' wholly hugs stuff, so thank you)

Love. Xx

AM that was very moving.
So Fid how long did you last today?

Wishing a pain free journey for you Zombie

Pistey here, met the fabulous Zombie a couple of times, we bagged, along with BIWI and some others tickets for the Mumsnet birthday party, Zombie danced the night away in that bloody stunning red frock of hers that night, she didn't think much of your DJ's choice @JustineMumsnet so she gave him her own playlist

This is how I will remember you Zombie, you just carry on dancing to your own playlist my love xxx

What a beautiful post IAm

Hope Zombie is floating on a lovely cloud of morphine induced dreams and smiles.

Another delurker. Wishing you a peaceful and pain free journey on, Zombie

Another delurker. Wishing you a peaceful and pain free journey on, Zombie

Yet another lurker here

I don't have any gin open, but will be raising a glass of rather evil Finnish liquorice liqueur to you tonight. I hope you are comfortable and surrounded by love, and that your journey is a peaceful one.

starting Only about 4. But am steeling self. Am re-naming the game "Zombie" & will be strong & think of her & hope it doesn't make me cry.

Because I did & do & I know I'm the Phalanxy poster atm but I do so miss her & miss her.

John Denver I know you like him, Zombie my love x

Fid I know

Oh IAM and Fid. You've brought that blinking onion juice in with you. Leaking eyes are not conducive to staring at worky screens. I shall go bath (not in gin, gets too sticky) and raise a glass along with all others to the lady in the red dress dancing the night away.

Another one de-lurking. I'm not very good with words, but I have lots of gin. Just running a bath, am taking and large GnT with me.

and lots of love coming your way
