    Hi all.

    Thanks for the puppy names suggested so far. Any more?

    Oh there is another cherry pie, I wonder who made this one.

    Munch munch, lovely.
    Puts money on counter.
    My eyes are so dry and sore will have to go back to my real fridge and put some eye drops in.

    Ouch with the knee zzz - not a nice thing to happen but at least you were at the doctors so could be treated quickly!

    Now where is that loose leaf tea for a PROPER cuppa.
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    Daisy - you weren't supposed to kick the doctor when he tested your reflexes by tapping you on your knee with the hammer:eek: Seriously though, I am sorry to hear that your knee has gone back to square one.

    So Daisy sit next to the fire with your leg raised, cover yourself with a woollen blanket and enjoy being waited on for a change.

    Actually Horace if I just .... uuuuuuhhhh!!! .... shove this .....aaargh! .... chaise lounge over by the fire .... phew! Then zzzDaisy can sit with her leg up comfortably - oh and here is a side table containing a plate with goodies, a drink or two of choice AND a small handbell for summoning help!

    Did someone say a handbell?
    Well fancy that. I just love ringing handbells. Can I bring our team into the cafe?
    We have a wide repertoire, ranging from classical to pops. Yep Good Vibrations on handbells is smashing.
    Oh good the coffee is on.
    I'll have a virtual cherry pie to go with that... keeps the calories down but the flavour is right here in my mouth!!!

    Hi everyone.

    I've put some seeds on the bird table Alto kindly put up, and hung up a fat-ball as well.

    Daisy, is the knee feeling a little better now? Here, let me refill your drink for you.

    Then I'll get myself a coffee and I think I might just have some chocolate cake today, indulgent I know, but I fancy some for a change.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Is that a bell I can hear ringing:confused: Sorry I am late - I have been busy with my business and I took the opportunity to wander back to the bus stop via the German street market which opened in Birmingham today:j Now I didn't actually buy anything whilst I was there but managed to snaffle a few virtual items:

    A musical frog (you rub a stick along its back and it makes frog noises)
    Some savory sandwich pretzels (various fillings)
    Some absolutely delicious large chocolates filled with a marshmallow cream filling (various flavours - all are yummy)
    A bottle of Schnapps
    A vat of hot gluhwein
    Some rings of hot bratwurst (can't understand why you would want to eat sausages made from kids though):eek:
    Oh and a brassier of hot chestnuts which I will leave outside (be careful though because according to the sign that I also pinched it clearly states that they contain 100% nuts:eek: ).

    Hopes you all enjoy the virtual feast that I managed to pick up today.

    Must remember to remove the clapper from Daisy's bell:rotfl:
