I'm doing what you say Biker just sitting watching what's going on and I have to say I am shocked by the outrageous goings on. It's like a Hen Party for grans/nans. shock I think a few standards have been dropped tonight.

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 21:30:22

bales of hay in the sidecar, for those who are staying over.. then knights will help you bed down! shock

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 21:32:30

oh NanKate I think a few names will be missing from GN in the morning, especially when they see it all played back on the CTV ! blush we will find out who it was rustling in the bushes and where it was that nannieroz was running off to with "Randolph" hmm

Thistledoo Mon 04-May-15 21:34:10

Just coming in to land now I've spotted the pyre, could everyone wave their knickers in the air to give me a good spot for landing. Oh I forgot it's thongs tonight. Sorry I'm late but I think I've travelled the furthest, I'm desperate for a g & t and some good homemade grub. Hope you are not all drunk.

nannieroz111 Mon 04-May-15 21:34:50

Me 'n Randolph are just getting "acquainted"!!!!!!!!!!

newist Mon 04-May-15 21:35:05

I hope its a big sidecar, I really cant face paddling back to the Hebrides tonight, especially when I am disorientated Heaven knows where I would end up or with whom

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 21:35:57

nannier shock in fact double shock

(I have the puncture repair outfit under my bike seat, just in case) grin

boheminan Mon 04-May-15 21:44:07

Wheeeeeee! Here we come - just passing over Falmouth Pier (NOT Versailles)hmm. Wheniwasyourage is with me but she's still invisible - we've forgotten to bring the spell book with us to turn her back to a gargoyle. Went a rather nice detour via Scotland, so added a couple of minutes to our journey.
I've brought some magic mushrooms and fairy cakes (the fairies are a little bit crunchy, but taste quite delicious).
We're coming in to land now...........

EVENIN' ALL....grin

Wheniwasyourage Mon 04-May-15 21:48:01

Oh well, it looked like Versailles to me. Hi everyone, I'm here, even if you can't see me, but as I seem to have brought my gargoyle face rather than any of the others, it's perhaps just as well. Thanks for the lift boheminan, although I wish you'd kept your Bat Nav under control.

Right, where are those mushrooms?

newist Mon 04-May-15 21:57:15

Hello everyone who has traveled vast distances to get here, there seems to be a slight lull, if I could help you find where stuff is, believe me I would help but I cannot, because I have drank stuff and eaten stuff, so all I can suggest is you help your selves to whatever you can find

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 21:59:46

oh newist it is Deluxe Model* may just have to make a few stops on the way, had to DUCK tape some of the locals to the trees to get past them, l left them with a couple of bags of Magic Mushrooms grin

rubysong Mon 04-May-15 22:01:21

Here I am at last, just bringing the magic rag rug in to land. Thank goodness I had the time shift facility fitted so I haven't missed anything! (Only 12 pages to check back on.).
The May revels are over and I have brought the left overs from the village hall refreshments with me. Sorry they are a bit squashed. Also plenty of mead and Twiglets.
It was hard to leave the Cornish singing in the pub so I have brought the singers along with me to give you a few tunes. (Any sign of Rick Wakeman?)

nannieroz111 Mon 04-May-15 22:03:00

Zzzzzzzz wot time izzit? think I need a bit more practice to be a proper dirty little stop out. Night night everyone moon

newist Mon 04-May-15 22:03:28

I couldn't possibly leave Tinkerbell, my Kayak in Cornwall

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:06:02

newist I think you will find most of the drunkards GNs under the tables...they did start rather early, some of the NEWBIES have been led astray and can be found wandering and muttering and chanting round the gardens, I keep hearing a squeaking noise from down the boatshed where I saw nannieroz running off to! Think I need to investigate.hmm
Is Falcon still entertaining that Rick fella!

Bogoff Mon 04-May-15 22:06:43

NEWS FLASH -- Policeman locked away after reporting 9 drunken Grans doing a ton on a carpet up the M5 northbound. !!!

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:07:22

hmm looks like nannieroz is worn out bet there will be lots of headaches in the morning

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:08:22

I shall interrogate her in the morning to the whereabouts of Randolph!

Falconbird Mon 04-May-15 22:10:13

He had to go home Rubysong but he left loads of CDs and a massive amplifier- can't you hear the music. Anyone got any Beatles or Stones music.
Love Cornish singers. Let's hear a few sea shanties.

All of those with big foam hands wave them in the air, otherwise wave thongs....... or thongs and big foam hands.

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:10:43

Looks like I'm left to tidy up again tut! mutter's under breath. crumbs "everywhere" their an untidy lot, wrappers, half eaten jellies! Thongs hanging in the trees shock tut, tut.

newist Mon 04-May-15 22:12:14

shouldn't some one who can count, do a head count or something, it doesn't seem quite right, not knowing where people are

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:12:56

Falcon I think you may find lot's of discarded Thongs tut!! really! what are they like! Can't take them anywhere, fancy giving me a hand to tidy round before bed smile these lot aren't fit for anything sheeeeeeeee................ walks of to get brush n shovel.........>>>>>>>

annodomini Mon 04-May-15 22:13:57

Woops, the jellies and lollies have replenished themselves a bit more than I expected and the boxes are overflowing! Grab a handful, everyone!

newist Mon 04-May-15 22:13:57

I can do " what shall we do with the drunken sailor"

bikergran Mon 04-May-15 22:14:20

newist they have all been tagged prior so we will be able to locate any of them at any time if need be, so don't be worrying all night.
