I thought I would make a new thread quickly seeing that the first one is nearly full

Bring the guitar. I will accompany you n the spoons.

I have an accordion in the loft, I can’t actually play it but Norman looks like he could belt out a tune.

I've been popping in and out of this thread as odd times because I've been watching the Wasp on catch up (overruled on live viewing due to a majority favouring Shetland) but if we're setting up a detective agency I AM IN.

Like a previous poster I have a 'talk to me' face and people often do. I can provide excellent fruitcake and am skilled in deep undercover work - I mean, you didn't even know I was here, did you?

Please may I bagsy a spot at the sleepover especially if there is to be cake and rummaging in the haberdashery. I can strum 'Old MacDonald' on the ukulele and can make cheese straws.

Anyone who wants to try scuba Minerva Crafts have 10% off with code sewingbeescuba.

I've just discovered Audi's all butter oat biscuits. My magic trick is making them disappear but I shall bring a decreasing supply for the agency sleepover. Binglewoof will bring slobber.

FuzzyPuffling · 08/03/2019 11:05

Schady I remember the Cresta polar bear (No one else does) "It's frothy man". I still say this on relevant occasions.

FuzzyPuffling · 08/03/2019 11:08

Also I would be great at a sleepover as I can sleep. Quite a lot.

I am rather liking "Audi's" biscuits. Vorsprung Durk Biscuit?

Halsall · 08/03/2019 11:19

Fuzzy & Schaden - It's frothy, man - me too! Sound of my childhood.

revel in nostalgia

FuzzyPuffling · 08/03/2019 12:01

Halsall I shall make DH watch that...he has no idea what I am on about.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/03/2019 12:58

FreezerBird, consider yourself recruited - your Ninja-like movements on and off the thread are truly impressive.

I have a Mac, if that's any good?

FreezerBird · 08/03/2019 12:59

Cake, you say?

And baked goods in general. However much of my baking does have a Famous Five sort of vibe which makes it particularly appropriate for fuelling detective work/haberdashery midnight feasts.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/03/2019 12:59

I mean, a mac, not a Mac. I haven't got one of those.

I've got plenty of newspapers we can cut eye holes in to hide behind if we are planning a stakeout.

FuzzyPuffling · 08/03/2019 14:49

I have two tin cans and some string. Am I now Head of Communications?

Here's our theme tune

Thank you Puffling - he was ace. I "found" the huge cardboard bear at a cinema refreshments kiosk and "liberated" him.

In my defence I was very drunk, with friends and showing off.

Dr Apocalypse I was given by our local branch of the computer shop (can't remember what the company was) when they changed their advertising campaign.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 08/03/2019 15:34

Halsall - Thank you so much for that!

Lashings of ginger beer, I hope, FreezerBird

SoMuchToBits · 08/03/2019 18:17

I remember the Cresta bear too!

SoMuchToBits · 08/03/2019 18:21

If we're doing music, I play the clarinet. And I suppose I could bring ds as he's a dab hand on the drum kit. Although he's not very interested in sewing (apart from sewing badges on his cadet force Royal Navy cap).

FuzzyPuffling · 08/03/2019 18:56

I can bring my double bass. (Order the larger size tour bus please) Or my tin whistle if that's easier.

iklboo · 08/03/2019 18:58

I can play the melodica and the glockenspiel not at the same time. Quite niche though.

SoMuchToBits · 08/03/2019 19:46

Ds plays percussion including glockenspiel, iklboo! You could do a duet! Grin

dontcallmelen · 08/03/2019 19:46

Well, we now have a full orchestra which is indeed very handy for deep undercover work & sustained by cake & lashings of ginger beer & as we have Siralans cc a large tour bus shouldn’t be a problem.
I say we set out undercover of darkness & Abakhan shall be ours for the taking.
Schadeys cresta bear is the official mascot & its frothy man our official password.
