Don't worry about spelling Puss. Since the last upgrade of firefox, the spell check has got lost, so I know I type things, then think 'that doesn't look right'!! Its that dreaded txt spk that gets me.....there are at least 2 of us on here who are dinosaurs as for as that is concerned!!!

Don't worry about the baby mk's, they are frolicing with the boakins in the outside compund. Lets hope that no one ricks an ankle on any of the tunnels entrances they have dug.

Gather round everyone. Hopefully I catch you all before you gallivant off for the day. We have a probem, there is a crisis at Nut Lodge.

Never before in the annals of these hallowed hall has such an occurrence occurred.

Aunty takes a very comfy large pillow from the pillow pile, pulls LG gently toward the throne, sits her down with the pillow behind her head and says...........

what the "ell is going on LG???!! You do not have any red and white, no mention of Arsenal, no cannons, not even a soccer ball on your avatar!!! Are you sure you are all right, your majesty!! Aunty bows low trying to keep her nose out of the meerkat and oher assorted feral animal dung on the floor. You can not whoosh around on your broomstick dressed like an African safari groupie. However..... Aunty puts her arm around her Maj's shoulders...... however if you have finally seen the error in your ways I will now be able to instruct you in the finer art of proper football aka Australian Rules.

Now you just take this handfull of little pills and you will feel hunky dory in no time at all. Aunty hands LG a handful of smarties, that should do the trick!!! Here wash them down with this very large glass of red wine.

Hello excuse me.. knock knock...

I am here to deliver some sand bags ... they are for Cynthia .

I thought I might find her cowering in a corner somewhere.

Goodness there is an awful smell coming from that large black iron pot over there and it is not puha and pakeha.

I do like the pink walls, some sort of gritty plaster?

Have put the sand bags by the padded cell's door...

I'm out of here brmmmm (brmmmm is not text speak) it is my motorised mop....ed.

Hi Persie, Is that German text speak. I did Alliance Francais at high school and learned one French swear word. Thank you for the sand bags. They will come in handly to anchor the catapult should the weather turn fouler than it is.

If Cyn is in the padded cell she will be OK. There is a good supply of tin hats, water bottles and water pistols stored in there. What you can smell is either mole stew or mushroom risotto. You must also keep a watch for flying omelettes which is why the kitchen windows are left open. The pink stuff is custard. Maz used to work in a place that had copious, abundant, superfluous, and quite large quantities of custard so we built pipe lines to move the stuff from her establishment to Nut Lodge.

And speaking of text speak. I don't, and I don't have a mobile phone, or an ipad. I'm one of those 35 and a bit year old dinosaurs. I have a hang on the wall phone, with a bit you hold to your ear and a bit you speak into, and a tena pad which frequently needs changing.

"habe einen guten Tag!" ? Is that 'Have a good day' - a wild guess doncha know! Have a good evening might be a better choice - lol

Good idea for Cynthia to hide out here...she's so quiet that no one would guess to look in the midst of this organised chaos!!!

Yes Aunty, LG must be under the weather if she declined to splash red and white paint around the place. Mind you, Maz' special finish from last time, may have finally defeated her :-D

It's only a matter of time before she finds an otter picture with a red and white scarf/hat/jersey. :-(

You do realise this is my first visit so I was very cautious, have heard strange stories about this place.

I was worried I might have to,

jump to the left and then step to the right
put my hands on my hips and bring my knees in tight.

I think it was the spaced out sensation
like I was under sedation.

Perhaps I should have just done a haka..

BM can proudly remember 'there is turd in the swimming pool' from his GCSE Spanish. Typical teenage male humour :-0

Persie, you are always welcome here, especially as you have Aunty as your sponsor. :-D Unless you violently object, LG will add your name to the guest book on the front page......when she has recovered her equilibrium

Evening all.

A very warm welcome to Persie, and Cynthia if she comes out of hiding long enough to say hello!!

A moped added to the list of items that can be used for transportation! I'm not sure that it would make it across the ocean though, but perhaps LG's OH could supercharge it like he did with LG's broomstick. It could be used for transporting copious quantities of knicker elastic over here, as I think Perise might be another member of the upside down world!!

Love the avatar, LG. I haven't decided on a new pet yet. I think we have enough meerkats with Puss, so I will find a suitable alternative. As the meerkats are found to be frequently walking on their hind legs they could be very useful for an array of tasks at Nut Lodge.

Evening all. Well I am searching for a nice shirt for the Otter to wear. Poor little soul still has not got a name but I am giving it a lot of thought. My head is still spinning after the company of my mini Gooners all afternoon :-S.

I will probably change the avitar soon now that I have let you see what the CP looks like. I will get withdrawal symptoms if I don't display my beloved team :-D

Yahoo LG has her equilibrium back again. Thank goodness that otter has gone. And here was me thinking it was a ground hog.

I was going to ask for a tally of Valentine's Day offerings. It isn't over yet over there is it. So I will wait. I can tell you my tally..... Zero, zilch, Nil, Nothing. Would you not think in this whole world there would be one person who would oblige. Ah well, in my dreams again.

I think I might keep Spot the fantastic, slightly bedraggled, striped sabre tooth tiger as my CP. His exploits are legendary, and his hair is slowly growing back over his surgery scars and bare patches. Hmm you need a photo of him don't you. Let me see what I can do.

Nope t hat is not good enough. I would like to crop the background but I can not work out how to do it. I need to exit stage left for a while. When I come back I will delve into the horrors of photographic editing and see if I can improve the effort. Catch you later.

Oh Aunty we definately could not be without spot. Looking forward to the Avitar.

Morning one and all :-D

Spot is part of the family - you can't pension him off before his time.
What did the boss and your co-works have to say about your tat, or did you manage to wash it off?

The Avatar is more 'you' LG. Well done. :-D And Puss, don't worry about feeding your Meerkats....there's plenty of pink custard and mole stew to keep them satisfied if they can't cope of themselves :-D

Morning LG - So has the postman been yet? How many cards plopped through the letter box? Any from your dream team??? :-D :-D

We stopped giving in to that marketing ploy years ago.......we'd both be v confused if one of us received a card; It might even end in the divorce courts - lol
