time for a completely * * - free thread (yes, I know there are lots of others too... but this is specific)
and if this is the only posting to it, then that's fine by me

this thread has a race, cricket, chocolate, wine, coffee and chat - if you want!



and I hope the queues don't spill onto the motorways I want to use as I go away!

Does it have a wall where I can watch the aforementioned paint dry?

Toy thumper bunnies make great subjects for pencil drawings. The grey ones are best.

If you would all learn to play go, we could discuss the wonders of Shusaku and Yi Ch'ang ho!

But I bet you aren't going to...

Sign me up! (for the thread I mean, not for whatever Bobifier is offering!)

HP ??????

just noticing how little wind there is outside this morning - almost nothing is moving. What a contrast to recent days. Oh - there is one leaf over there that waved ever so slightly. Hello leaf !

I can see my neighbour pegging their washing out. And I have a gas man coming over this morning to change my gas meter.

Why don't you want to discuss 'Higher Purchase' ?

or brown sauce in bottles ?

Anyone play mahjong?




Cos it has to be ketchup!!

Harry Potter!!!

*runs away*

*repeats*



*runs away*

Still waiting for the gasman...neighbours washing is blowing nicely!

My gran had her meter replaced recently too - they don't give a time which is a real pain isn't it - you have to wait in all day

Yes, I know...and it's such a lovely day, I could be down on the coast! Never mind. Hopefully they won't be long. I'm getting in some extra practice (in between being on here!!) so it's not entirely wasted.

My cat Charlie is chasing a leaf!

I have to go to town and buy bottles of gas - no pipelines or meters here. My kitten (no name yet) is chasing a bottle top - too little to go outside and chase leaves.

Three dogs and a puppy are lying fast asleep at my feet - they have such a hard life!

chocolate a-plenty Noodle.

my laptop & my printer are also labelled like yours... never mind, I don't read those labels often!

Eddie and Dobbin want to know just what is so very wrong with Horse Power?

Bring them over me dear!! Still waiting....

"They are on their way, madam"...that was over an hour ago. So much for requesting a morning appointment.

HARRY POTTER!!!!

*also, runs away quickly*

*laughs*

A field of corn shouldn't cause hayfever should it? Just wondered...

We were surrounded by flying ants in Aylesbury this morning

Oh, and my brother made my speak to my dog on the phone this afternoon!

who's the daftest..him for asking or you for doing it???!!!

The gasman cometh!!

I think my brother can be forgiven, perhaps he is lonely without me?!

It was rather odd, I almost expected Brodie to reply when I asked if he was missing me...

What did you talk about?

EDIT: Oops, you posted just before I did. So I guess you didn't talk for long then?

Oh, you know, the usual stuff - the weather, French cuisine, the pesky cat who lives across the road

*unless you have dog genes....*

It was certainly an odd experience, but you should try it some time

It gives a new meaning to the cockney slang 'dog and bone' anyway...

You're both barking!!!


Sorry.....

Wolf! Wolf!

I rest my case!

Walkies!!

hot dogs?

Who’s afraid of Virginia …… ?

My cats often purr to me on the phone.

Where to?

*looks at DaisyChain with melting bown eyes....*
*Growls at SaxFan*

No offence - Horse Power is of course allowed! Hello E & D !
as are Printers, Laptops, Hire Purchase, sauce - all acceptable hp-s

Down boy!!

**Throws a stick** Go fetch!!

At least this thread can stand on it's own two hind legs , it's really taken off!

You take the lead Daisy, and like a stray dog...

Gee --- thanks

Haut Parleurs?

I just wanted to add another post to this thread to keep that frightful HP thread off the top. I saw on the news this evening that some twits wre already waiting outside the book shops for the midnight launch! I really hope that they all die in a total wipe out , (The characters, not the folk waiting!) and then my pupils will stop spending so much time reading in the weeks that the new books and /or films are launched and do some work for me.
Go Horse Power!

my cat just miaowed

My dog barks down the phone to me, she always seems to know it's me! Clever wee soul, can recognise voices! Although it can be rather painful on the ears Yyaass! Let's keep the ** thread off the top!!!!!

My dog always sings his favourite theme tunes. He loves The Archers, (I leave the radio on softly for him when I an giving lessons) Coronation Street and his all time favourite is the trumpet part in the Antiques Roadshow theme. He actually follows the melodic line in that.

My mum used to know somebody in the Archers

It wasn't Harold Pinter was it?

Was it a speaking part?

one of the main characters if I remember correctly

but probably before your time !

Penguins are cool.
