Have C&P Dad's "vote" count on the POTENTIAL emoticon, don't want to hijack another thread but wondered what the thoughts were?

A Tom Archer Sausage maybe?

Hmmm I like the community idea of the Bull but really it's just going to be used to mean BS so I'd rather something else... I like the tractor but what would it mean outside of TA?

officerhinrika · 30/03/2016 20:42

I think I've been lurking for about 48 threads but would like to delurk and vote for a pitchfork. So useful.

sunnydayinmay · 30/03/2016 20:46

DS suggestion

bakeoffcake · 30/03/2016 20:46

Oh a pitchfork is a very good idea!

EsmesBees · 30/03/2016 20:56

My concern with the bunting is how we make it 'Archers' enough. Fallon's stolen bunting sounded pretty radical. So my first choice would be bunting if we can find an artist with the right imagination, and failing that, something classic like the tractor.

I like the tractor but what would it mean outside of TA?

Who cares? Wink
I vote for a badger, driving a tractor, running over vampy Rob.

SliceOfLime · 30/03/2016 21:10

Haha Pseudo that gets my vote Grin

Swirlingasong · 30/03/2016 21:22

Can I put in a late vote for a small Bartleby and trap? It would mean something like 'maybe not modern/efficient/trendy, but comforting and love's.

DadDadDad · 30/03/2016 21:22

Pseudo - bit ambitious to get that all in a smiley. Smile

Anyone else finding weird that Pseudo's posts are not being highlighted as OP on this thread - so used to seeing you in green! Confused

Swirlingasong · 30/03/2016 21:22

Loved. Not love's.

PseudoBadger · 30/03/2016 21:23

Or a turkey...

In case anyone here didn't see this on the other thread:

What about the Plarchers Rob figure? That could have a wide use on the Relationships thread.

'I don't really know why I'm posting here. I am so lucky. I have a lovely home, a gorgeous little boy, another baby due soon and my husband looks after me really well. He's a great father. It's just that I think sometimes he's a bit overprotective. He was worried when I had a minor bump in the car recently and so he told me I should stop driving and in fact he's taken away my car keys to make sure I don't..... [red flag after red flag follows] He's so great, why do I feel miserable and on edge all the time? What's the matter with me?'

15 posters reply in the first ten seconds with the Rob emoticon.

toldmywrath · 30/03/2016 21:26

Oh how lovely -a vote not about Brexit Grin
I like the scream idea mooted on TA thread.
Second choice is Plarcher Rob (vampire)

Thank you D^3 & Olivia.

redshoeblueshoe · 30/03/2016 21:32

3^D you are right - Psuedo I barely recognised you

Not much voter confidentiality round here

elephantoverthehill · 30/03/2016 21:40

Black pudding scotch egg made with bull's blood. I am getting the vampire vibe?

NotdeadyetBOING · 30/03/2016 21:57

I would go for a cow, but not on list.

So next best is pig.

Thanking you kindly.

Minimammoth · 30/03/2016 22:07

Serious question. If we go for vampire Rob, what do we do when a stake is thrust you know where, he will be a goner and emoji defunct.
I vote Badger in honour of pseudobadger. And an Aga / range, reminiscent of Jenny's and the Brookfield kitchen.

Eastpoint · 30/03/2016 22:10

Bull - will be able to replace biscuit in due course (as stated by someone else either on this thread or the Archers thread).

enochroot · 30/03/2016 22:11

Has anyone suggested a shepherd's hut on wheels yet?

redshoeblueshoe · 30/03/2016 22:22

Or a yurt ?

BlackeyedSusan · 30/03/2016 23:07

pitchfork, bunting or bull as they can be used for other things too.

CuttedUpPear · 31/03/2016 00:14

Tractor

CuttedUpPear · 31/03/2016 00:17

How strange. As soon as I clicked on this thread to read it, it told me it was in my watched list.

Methinks Olivia is doing some magic Star...which I like!

Putthetulipsthere · 31/03/2016 00:36

Bull
Pitchfork
