Emergency ? services on standby. SirC what are you doing down there?

Chewbacca Wed 11-Dec-19 21:47:01

FIRE! FIRE! FIRE! CALL THE FIRE BRIGADE!

I do like firemen and they add a certain jeux ne se qua to proceedings grin

SirChenjin Wed 11-Dec-19 22:06:24

Gah - I’m stuck!! Someone help me up please (and bring something to cover me up please - I appear to have split my knickers shock)

Doodle Wed 11-Dec-19 22:13:29

How many of those firemen do you really need to lift you up SirChen? ?. We’ve got 5 fire engines outside now, surely that’s enough (even lemon can’t cope with that many. Mind you if Marydoll can’t find Santa, she might take on a few) tchgrin

Doodle Wed 11-Dec-19 22:14:17

In case your interested, you appear to have forgotten to put any on ?

SirChenjin Wed 11-Dec-19 22:17:34

Just checked - I only flipping have!! blush

Chewbacca Wed 11-Dec-19 22:21:39

Knickers? Who wears those when you're wearing a skin tight leopard print and sequined mini dress? And very fetching you look too SirC. hmm

Doodle Wed 11-Dec-19 22:28:38

Leopard print and sequinned mini dress! Put your glasses on chewy that’s one of lemon’s ferrets dressed up and wearing a sparkling collar.......or at least I think it is...it’s furry anyway ?

Chewbacca Wed 11-Dec-19 22:31:02

My My Doodle, you're right! It is a ferret! Now what's it doing there? shock

Doodle Wed 11-Dec-19 22:35:13

Not so much what’s it doing there as to how it got there in the first place! ?

Scribbles Wed 11-Dec-19 23:19:03

Ouch!! That ruddy ferret bites shock

Chewbacca Wed 11-Dec-19 23:44:32

Perhaps best not to put it there then Scribbles?

Marydoll Wed 11-Dec-19 23:48:06

Questionable posts.

Chewbacca Thu 12-Dec-19 00:07:23

Verily I say unto you this is getting more and more like the Argy every day tchgrin. Look at you with your hoity toity manner Marydoll. We know you’re just grumpy coz you haven’t found Santa yet. ?

Marydoll Thu 12-Dec-19 20:06:03

With a name like Marydoll, how can I ever be called hoity, toity?
While we are at it, where is Santa.

Y you may ask (I might as well do Y while I’m here as I get it anyway)

Zumba dancing attracted him to her (or was it the fact that her dress fell down ?)

Chewbacca Thu 12-Dec-19 20:17:43

All together....

your left arm out
in, out, in, out
you shake it all about
You do the hokey cokey
and you turn around
that's what it's all about
Woah, the hokey cokey
woah, the hokey cokey
woah, the hokey cokey
knees bent
arms stretched
ra-ra-ra

I love a bit of class, I do.

Doodle Thu 12-Dec-19 20:23:04
