Widowhood.

I'll never visit Tintagel and see it in the same light again!
you lot are incredible
I take my hat off to all you indefatigable ladies!

Falcon was going to mention we hadn't seen you for a day or two but then was then laid up in bed so didn't get chance, so glad your back in the running
nannieroz I hope you "Parcel has arrived" it may be vacuum packed so don't be alarmed if it only looks small..when you open it just stand back! a sit expands, first things first is "pat on back" make sure it is working ok enjoy and always keep it at hand lol hand lol...dohhh

Now then ! I see in my absence , a party is about to be arranged excitement or trepidation I wonder

Falcon yes of course I can pick you up, if you can squeeze between the hay bales (needed for bedding down overnight if we are staying) do you think you could balance the big round table on your head as well!! we need somewhere to gather and throw the thighs over our shoulders etc, or is that a Medieval theme? oh well whos cares..lol

Galen do you think we could keep the police out of it this time!! that poor young PC was never the same again, and had a terrible time explaining to his sergeant why he had pink furry handcuffs round his ankles!

Oh the "Vodka Jellies" mmm especially the Vimto ones,, sluuuurppp
yes let's put it on the main thread, more the merrier! will leave the invites up to you Galen we need a doorman and security keep all the riff raff undesirables out this time.
anyone got a lurcher/whippet/greyhound.
Chamber pots! we must bring them, (don't want a repeat of last time where all the ladies were crouched over the moat! talk about a full moon! tut!

ok catch you soon everyone ta ta

We should get Rick Wakeman to come to Tintagel and play live for us. I'm sure he will still have his pointy hat and flowing Merlin robe, and we will all look wonderful in our mediaeval robes.

I did season work at the fish and chip shop in King Arthurs Car Park at Tintagel when I was 17. Lived in a garden shed at the back of the shop. I made great candy floss .

I've been called worse than a harpy! My younger brother used to call my violin a vile din!

You're a harpy, Galen? At Tintagel, with the waves beating on the rocks below, we need some powerful music, like Wagner, given the Arthurian context.

When shall we have it?
When we've decided I'll open a new thread for it.

Ill bring my harp. I'm sure I can pluck a note on two that will fool people that people will know is medieval music.

I googled Rick Wakeman and he's on You Tube. He made an album way back about the Court of King Arthur. The music is GREAT. Have a listen.

We could have it on big speakers. I'm a veggie teetotaler but I can still dance with the best of them.

Vodka jellies, anyone? I'll be polishing my broomstick. Last time I visited Tintagel, I was 8 months pregnant - over 44 years ago. This time it will be more fun.

I'm coming! I'll be a bit slow though as I'm coming on the Lady of Shalott's boat - can I get all the way to Tintagel by boat without having to brave the sea? It can be rough round that north Cornish coast.

Hey ladies - I've been gone for a day and when I come back you're arranging a party count me in.

Tintagel would be fantastic - remember Rick Wakeman - didn't he do medieval music and we'll have to have Cornish Pasties. I'll make some veggie ones with tofu.

Going all out on this - going to get one of those tall pointy hats with a long veil down the back.

Can you pick me up on your bike Biker? It's on the way. Been watching Poldark and how about inviting him along as it's going to be in Cornwall.

I'd love to come to the (virtual) party at Tintagel. I've just made a carrot cake and can bring that. Also I live only about an hour away so it will be easy for me to get there. I don't have a broomstick or a magic carpet but I'm making a rag rug so maybe I can get some magic into that.
Can we go into the Halls of King Arthur in Tintagel? There is fantastic stained glass and lots of interesting things to see, in fact it would make a better party venue than the actual castle which is just a ruin in a spectacular setting.
What shall we do for music? It will need to be a bit 'dark ages'.

We did indeed!
I've resurrected the thread
Is anyone interested in trying another party?

This is the best I can do. Didn't we have fun in those days?
(I was Anagram then, BTW)

Oh. We also can chose to come as appropriate figures!
pompa as Lancelot?

Arthur was supposed to have been conceived there.

The idea is we all arrive on all sorts of imaginary transport
Magic carpets
Chariots
Tardis
Broomsticks etc
Those without transport pick up others en route.

I can't retrieve threads
Can any one retrieve the suffragettes one?

Tintagel's a place biker. Its the Arthurian theme that's thrown me!

Arthurian theme? Does that involve dressing up galen? Oh eh did I just say that out loud?

nannier ohh yes we will have to go and purchase some new inflatables lol, it wouldn't be the same without them

Galen I will first have to go and look what Tintagel means (I have led a sheltered life) lol can you remember any of the party thread names so that nannieroz may have a quick shifty, although I'm sure any newbies will soon pick up the sillyness theme, and meet all the alcoholics drinkers ok to my bed now so goodnight all

Should we think about another virtual party? To give all the newbies a sense of how whacky sensible we are?
If so, I suggest Tintagel with an Arthurian theme?

My gawd, what have I missed?

Never mind biker we WILL make it to Llandudno someday. Will you need your inflatable friends?

lol ohh yes Galen it's all coming back to me now

Glastonbury tor when Donald the cat/dog stole the BBQ joint, the firemen appeared and good fun was had
The suffragettes March when someone chained themselves to the railings and the pc had to retrieve the key from inside her bra?
March, March, swing ye along-----

soz missed an "n" out tut!
