Nacktschnecken omlet Cube

[Valkyrie]

Sounds like: Phew, phew, Barney Magrew (?), Cuthbert, Dibble, Grub. You can do the tune.

[Scramble]

I'm sorry, but have I taken refuge in the bottom of a garden pond? I don't remember all these pages

 

Well done on the charity stuff, Fred...I always decorate my sisters cakes for cake sales ... I am rather possessive over colourful writing icing.

 

Glad you're okay Koojie..I didn't have to time to type a 'phew'

 

Your echo made me Lulu.

 

Oooh, may I request a room at this welsh omlet commune you're all planning?

Unless you're still camping in my garden and I just haven't noticed.

 

Sister is making her boyfriend a valentines day card...the design co-ordinates with the wrapping paper on his present...it's the best thing since sliced bread

 

And Koojie..I'd do the tune if I had any idea what you were talking about

[Valkyrie]

Trumpton - the firemen. Probably a bit before your time! I'm doing the old fogey bit again

 

Actually we are still in the garden but you've been busy playing with the frogs in the pond.

 

I forgot the echo!

[chick wiggle]

Oi! Koojie, you are NOT an old fogey - i remember Trumpton

[Space Chick]

Same here Sandie, and I'm not an old fogey either

[chick wiggle]

I think another 'phew' might be called for -

 

Phew!

 

[Space Chick]

[Redwing]

Whats Trumpton?

 

[Valkyrie]

I forgot you were only 21 Redwing.

[Lewis]

I nearly missed the Phew!

 

Lewis doesn't know what Trumpton is?

[Cooks]

Redwing a mere whippersnapper

 

me not know either Lewis

[Valkyrie]

Oh here you go you young'uns.

 

[Cooks]

brilliant. no wonder I didnt know it 1966!!! I wasn't bought til the end on 72.. I thought I was being more dense than normal..

[Valkyrie]

No, don't worry - it's my "when I was young . . ." and my memories of being young are very strong. I just forget the more recent years. Come to think of it, that would coincide with having children - I just want to forget those years!

[Lewis]

They didn't seem in much of a rush to get to the fire

... and what would H&S say about sitting on the engine like that

[Cooks]

ooh they'd throw the book at them..

 

I used to live in a house like the one in their street....

[Lewis]

Lewis is just uploading some of the Summer Holiday videos t' youtube because some of the cast have been asking

- remember my bus?? -

 

Oh ... and don't tell Nat I showed you

 

One of the Annie video's has over 17,000 views

[Valkyrie]

Hand jiving at the computer here!

[Space Chick]

Lewis, I can't watch clips from my laptop, so will have to wait until I can steal custody of the main PC

 

Re Trumpton and its broadcast. I wasn't born until 74, and they used to show it on Welsh telly in the late 70's and early 80's

[Lewis]

I wonder if it'll be worth all the excitement Debs?

[Lewis]

Rather quiet tonight peoples

 

Lewis has just ordered another metal chicken sign

... not for me though, for my chickeny uncle's birthday

[Scramble]

Does Lewis have a little online shopping problem?

[Lewis]

Nope

First thing I've bought for aaaaages I gave up lurking on ebay after it cost me too much

 

Have a load of work for tomorrow but can't be bothered Am on the Biology atm ... Drugs and their mechanism of action at synapses - normally its one topic I'd actually be interested in, just not 2 sides and not today

[Valkyrie]

Well done for studying.

 

Just wondering and going to ask a question of the ladies from Wales - although I think it would definitely be before your time. Around the Trumpton era - which my brother used to watch, so would be around 69/70's, there was a programme running before it. Totally in Welsh, but it was funny - we couldn't understand the language but we were able to get the gist anyway. A short blonde man (who was the funny one) and a tall dark haired man who was usually the long suffering partner. They used to do lots of different sketches and the one I remember most was the little man dressing up and pretending to be the tall one's mum. He was always buttering a loaf of bread and waving the knife around while he talked. It was just like watching my nan! Any ideas what programme it was and did you ever see it?

 

By the way they are doing a documentary on Skippy the bush kangaroo next week - oh boy can't wait!

[Lewis]

Finished the Biology ... should be doing the Business Studies but for once I'm actually yawning!

So I think I'll take the hint and go to bed

 

Night all

 

PS Its Friday! ... and Happy Birthday Cheryl
