Gransnet 1st Anniversary!

Nightowl do you fancy being a one man band we have a vacancy what's in your cake.

Nellie I do love your posts but they make me really breathless

Oh nanachrissy if you are breathless does that mean you wont want to take over blowing the comb and Izal we seem to have trouble now filling that spot,could you manage the spoons

I'll definitely take on the spoons (then I can eat all the vodka jellies!)

Yes I will be the one man band count me in I'm sure I can manage a few more instruments as well as my triangle. What would you like in my cake nellie ?[creep emoticon] (that's me being the creep by the way not you)

well as nanachrissy is going to eat all the vodka jellies nightowl perhaps something with some alchohol oh and some chocolate and some fresh cream,maybe use some baileys in the mixture are you an inventive cook seeings you have the one man band and other instuments AND you make cake you are obviously very talented would you like the broom to sweep the floor behind you also

Baileys! YES! please.

keep it up you three! I'm enjoying this.

My bodum has arrived!

Your bottom what?

oh thats marvellous jeni do you bang,blow,suck on it,and do you have a free hand in case soop wants someone to help with the crutch

Oh no I can see I have set myself up for a fall I am a bit of a rubbish cook can manage a Victoria sponge but that's about it never mind I will start practising now. Also I never said I had all the instruments I think I've bitten off more than I can chew maybe I'll stick to my triangle and just give me the broom to clear up afterwards. I'm sure there are some very talented granddads over on their thread who would love to be the one man band ( slinks away with tail between her legs)

It's an Irish drum!
No free hand, but I do have two electric buggies and there's only one of me!

we need some bouncers in case we get gatescrashers at our GN rave,and does any one feel like building a mosh pit

By the way nellie do you realise your style of posting is infectious oops forgot I'm sulking

oh! a bodhran!! I've got one of those too.

We could play dodgems with your buggies jeni!

Nightowl are you sure that was your tail between your legs? I thought it might be the broom!!

bags how big is yours? Mines only a 10 1/2 inch?
(sounds like two blokes in the gents) evil

oh no nightowl we all have equal but very different talents make a chocolate victoria sandwhich and add baileys instead of milk and sandwich with fresh cream after all you can put your tail between your legs ..thats no mean feat.

jeni do you have go faster stripes on your electric buggy ? We could dress you up like Brittannia and turn your buggy into a float and have a buggy procession...Any other buggies out there who want to take part,choose your character and how will you dress your strikethroughfloat I mean buggy, think jeni may have a spare it comes with an airhorn which plays colnel Bogie

One is like me blue! But it's a Leo and I'm a Sagittarius! The other is a luggie, and the colour is champagne (actually a sort of beige)

nightowl glad its only my posting thats infectious otherwise I might be in quarantine and miss the rave do you find it difficult to sit with your tail between your legs and does it affect the cut of your jeans,do you have to make a little hole for the tail...come to think of it do owls have tails?

Ooh nanachrissy how rude! I was never popular at school (sob) and now rhey're all laughing at me (sob) but they'll be sorry when they realise what a talent they have rejected. I am practising my instruments as we speak (old violin found in son's room, penny whistle, broken guitar, not to mention saucepan lids and my trusty triangle) and though I say it myself I am really very good. At least I think that's applause I hear from the neighbours and oh look the local police have come to join in with their sirens. Anyway I'm coming whether you like it or not and Bags can share my Victoria sponge as she was the only one who was nice to me

jeni colour dosent matter as we are going to decorate your float to resemble a rule Brittania tableau of course if that is too gentle how about Boudiccia you could have daggers in the wheels to savage all who displease you,or a roman chariot any of those take your fancy

We already have a chariot with GN banners scythes and Boudicca. I can't remember who it belongs to?
Mine gets disguised as a scallop shell with me as Aphrodite being born, as per, ? Botticelli!

Ours is eighteen inches, jeni. More like bullock pee.

Can I paint the beige buggy, then? Sparkly blue?

Yes, owls do have tails. I have one attached by a clippy thing to one of those clippy clocks. It's really beautiful.
