It’s getting towards the time we planned ahead for the Grand Christmas Ball tchsmile
Held as usual in Lemongrove Manor, strict dress code (anything goes)
Alphabetical order ...be inventive.

Utterly lost now. Help, someone, please! I only came out for some fresh air and I must have wandered into the maze in my bleary, short-sighted fog.

Yule (!) catch yer death in that frock ! Lemme no if you find Lord Lucan in there . Mind you with those specs you wouldn’t recognise him anyways . Take care I just saw Lemon’s OH staggering in your direction and the Paparazzi are using drones .

Scribbles Fri 27-Dec-19 17:33:07

Zip's just busted open on my slinky fishtail frock! Oh, no! Now I'm really glad of these enormous privet hedges to shelter me and hide my embarrassment from those nosey drones.

A vast behind. A vast behind. Some old sea dog is standing on the balcony bellowing this towards the maze. We've given him a pint of rum so people will think its the booze talking.

lemongrove Fri 27-Dec-19 19:12:00

Bloomin’ heck! It’s Lord L reverting to his Navy days, and I think the vast behind belongs to me?
Don’t give him grog, whatever you do?Too late!

Doodle Fri 27-Dec-19 20:07:59

Can anyone find me please. I’m stuck under lemons skirt and I can’t find my way out. A vast behind is heading towards me heeeellllppppp ?

DON'T MOVE Doodle! The slightest movement could be all it takes for lemon to explode from her nether regions and she ate a lot of sprouts over Christmas. For the sake of all of us, don't trigger it. and you'd be blown skywards

'Ecky thump! I'm glad now that I'm lost and shivering in the maze. These hedges might provide some blast-proofing.

Flagon of gavison has been drunk by Lemon. Fingers (and everything else) crossed it works for all our sakes. Scribbles -glad all the survival skills you learnt of Bear Grylls are coming in handy.

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 13:32:43

Good grief! Is that really you trapped in my net underskirts
Doodle? I wondered where you had gone!Are you sleeping off your hangover there or would you like to be cut out?
Get the shears Cloud there’s a dear.?

Doodle Sat 28-Dec-19 15:20:20

Help!!!!! Help please someone get me out. It’s like being entombed in a mosquito net and I can’t see anything and to be honest the air quality is not too good. ??.
Please rescue me. There’s a loud hissing noise coming from above. Help save me someone please......??☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 15:26:36

I can’t help it, it woz the sprout crumble☺️Still....better out than in eh?

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 15:28:59

Just one moment...snip, snip.....there you go, run free
Doodle ( there she goes, over the fields and far away) who’d a thunk the old girl had such a turn of speed?

Doodle Sat 28-Dec-19 21:37:40

Kicking myself out of a hedge ? I’m all covered in mud and twigs now. I came out from under lemon’s skirt jet propelled by sprout power. Which is a bit like rocket fuel only smellier. Time to go home and get spruced up and ready for New Year.
I think I’ll go for my new spandex all in one leotard in fuschia pink with my orange tutu. It’s a bit tight but I think I can get away with it as long as I don’t eat too much ?

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 21:42:31

Lord Lemongrove is lost ! Would you all look for him??

Chewbacca Sat 28-Dec-19 21:50:25

Lucky escape there Doodle, it could have turned very nasty. This time last year lemon ate 3 sprout crumbles, 17 tins of baked beans and a chicken vindaloo. It was unfortunate that, at the very second she bent down to pick up a fag end, Thor was just lighting a cigarette. He's still not recovered. Poor man.

Scribbles Sat 28-Dec-19 21:51:30

Maybe Lord L is also in the maze? If I stumble across him, perhaps we can figure out between us how to get out. It's getting a bit boring here just wandering about and bumping into dead ends.

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 22:02:05

Noooooooo Chewbacca that was Carillion ( although we do look alike from the rear)?

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 22:04:30

Queer goings ons in that maze Scribbles.....watch out for the ghostly grey lady with her head in her hands weeping ( the former Lady L when she ran out of gin.)?

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 22:05:03

Oh, I missed a pee ?

Chewbacca Sat 28-Dec-19 22:06:07

Oi! What happened to O?

Please don't forget P either!

Chewbacca Sat 28-Dec-19 22:06:45

Quite so lemon!

Doodle Sat 28-Dec-19 22:46:59

Sighting of woman without a head riding Lord L bareback round the paddock. She appears to be shouting something about wanting a gin sling..........oops Lord L has reared up.........well she’s hanging on by one stirrup now.....oh ? he’s gone into full gallop ...watch out he’s coming this way.

Chewbacca Sat 28-Dec-19 22:55:20

Really! What has R done to be so ignored? First O. And then P. Now R.

Talking about headless women.. has anyone seen Marydoll lately? She was legless, headless and knickerless last time I saw her. And now you mention it, she was loitering around the stables.......

lemongrove Sat 28-Dec-19 22:56:08

Riding him? Oh he’ll enjoy that?
