to all

Rubecula · 28-12-2012 4:54pm

Well I got back in via the lounges window. Whoever left it open, thanks.

The place seems to have been quiet over the festivities. You all hungover or something? I suspect you were all off to watch Alice and her Christmas dance of the seven ermine? Bad news though, they were not real ermine, she used ferrets in her pantaloons.

Hope you all had a great time folks.

Ramette · 28-12-2012 5:09pm

Afternoon Master Rube, am back at work today willing the clock to move faster! Tis a tad windy out there, probably good that Alice has ferrets in her pantaloons, they should provide ballast!

looksee · 28-12-2012 5:10pm

That's some imagination you have there Rube! It conjours up a wonderful er interesting picture.

spent my christmas with my 7 month granddaughter,two staffies and a english bulldog,my wife keeps saying to her;where is your grumpy granddad,and she looks for me.

Alice1 · 29-12-2012 11:58am

The goings on (or lack of them) in my pantaloons are nobody's business but mine.... and for your information, they were ermine and there were nine of them. Hence the dance of the nine ermine.

I don't like ferrets - they look like elongated rats.

Nine!!! Is that a record of somekind?

Great to see you Alice I trust all is well?

looksee · 29-12-2012 12:11pm

They must be well trained, you could get some savage bites from ermine!

Alice1 · 29-12-2012 12:15pm

Hi Rube me oul flower. All is well with me and mine. Christmas was lovely and Santa came to the child of my autumn years.
Eldest child told me she has a boyfriend :eek: so I am looking at nunneries for her at the moment.
I am back at work on New Year's Eve - probably won't be a full day though.

How is you?

Alice is quite clever, she uses gummy ermine, Mind you she still jumped after a nasty sucking incident.

Aww glad you had a good time Alice. I went to stay with my dad over Christmas. May have still been there only I ran out of tablets

You want to be careful of those nunnery places, they do odd things in there. Dressing up in fancy dress to pretend to be penguins (apparently they get fresh fish on Fridays for that one.) AND they make strong drink too ...(or is that a distillery? I get confused)

Hiyiz all, glad yiz are all still around, as wot I yam!!

I had a sicky Christmas night and St Stephen's

but up to that, and since, it was all jolly!

Anyhoo Rube, it isn't nuns wot make strong drink. You are confusing them with that 'oul Buckfast distillery!

'Tis not nuns you need worry about, but the monks are to be watched.....closely! Mebbe they are the ones that eat monkfish on Fridays!

Rubecula · 29-12-2012 8:28pm

Ah well you see Jelly the strong vapours get me all muddled up.

tis lovely to see you hon all the best wishes for the New Year.

And of course folks I mean that for each and everyone of you wonderful people, who I understand are going to ply me with those self same strong vapours in liquid form courtesy of the ever generous Old Goat who is throwing open his cabinet drawers to all comers. (Even if he doesn't know it .... who has the skeleton key?)

looksee · 29-12-2012 9:38pm

Ahem. I have a lock pick. But keep it quiet. Seems a bit mean though, so near to new year.

Rubecula · 30-12-2012 3:51pm

Well a looksee lockpick is probably a lot more gentle than a Rubecula lockpick (ie a hammer).

Still I am sure we won't need it. OG will open it up for us. He looks after his charges. (I hope

)

OldGoat · 30-12-2012 4:18pm

/Adds extra boobie traps to the drinks cabinate.

Hehehe, boobies.

Rubecula · 30-12-2012 4:46pm

*mans up and heads for the traps to save the ladies. *

I am not as small as I once was but they would need to be great traps to get my boobies :pac::pac:

Ramette · 31-12-2012 12:14am

There better be lots of bubbly tomorrow night:)

And I expect all you men to be on your best behaviour...

looksee · 31-12-2012 12:19am

Best behaviour? Snort! Well I shall be here keeping an eye on things, though no doubt OG will be off doing something complicated with feathers...

Ramette · 31-12-2012 12:34am

I fear the men will be unruly,you will have your work cut out Looksee.

looksee · 31-12-2012 12:36am

Sounds promising.

Rubecula · 31-12-2012 1:15pm

I am going to be perfectly ruly (is that a word?) Anyway I will be on my best behaviour, I can't let the side down during the festivities can I?

*But seeing as it is still early ..... goes around putting up special New Year Decorations.... Looksee's pills over the window, Ramette's flannellette underwear over the door, Alice's slippers in the middle of the ceiling, Jelly's cardigan from the chandelier, whoopee cushions everywhere ...... Snickers in a childish way as he goes looking for anything Chucken has left out.

Get your hands away from my drawers mister!

looksee · 31-12-2012 1:26pm

Aside from Rube making the place look like a rummage sale, is anyone doing anything actually festive? In real life I mean? We have family coming over tomorrow, but absolutely nothing happening this evening - I've never been bothered about NYE anyway, but with two of the three children abroad and hubby needing to go to bed around 9pm it will be me and a video!

Rubecula · 31-12-2012 1:43pm

To be honest I have no plans at all. Usually I spend New Year with my father, but this year I was with him for Christmas instead. Not at all sure what I will do. In past years when I still lived in Liverpool I would be out in the street with the neighbours, and going to house parties and such. I suspect I will be at home this year on me own. (No sounds of aww poor Rube please. There are lots of lonely folk out there who don't have much choice in the matter, so I feel sort of blessed that I have some choice in the matter.)

It is possible that I may visit a friend, or take a drive to one of my other relatives. Frankly, I don't know what I will do yet. Which makes it a bit exciting in a way.

looksee · 31-12-2012 2:33pm

No awwww here either, we never made anything of NYE, its just another evening, but with a singular lack of anything decent on the tv!

Chucken · 31-12-2012 4:48pm

We wont be doing anything too exciting. Chillin' with the offsprings and the new baba

Ive loads of food cooked so we'll just graze on that all evening and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Happy New Year everyone. I hope its a good one for everyone

Jellybaby1 · 31-12-2012 10:10pm

NYE has never been an event in our house. Just a clink of my lemonade glass at midnight and that's the festivities over for another year for me!:D How will I contain myself? :rolleyes: Happy 2013 to all, for all of 2013.

Ramette · 31-12-2012 10:29pm

I always find it a very lonely time of year, so thus year I drove to cork and am spending this evening eating rubbish, drinking wine and watching Harry potter with a dear friend. So I am happy out!

The very best of happy New Years to all you old folk xxxx

All ye oul wans and oul fellas out there! Wakey wakey, rise and shine!
