    A lovely bit of contrast there......now, wonder what Igor wants to wear? Oh, didn't I mention that, as well as organising the catering, he also wants to play on the team?

    I thought he was trying out his Braveheart look this year? (with the addition of a maid's frilly apron!)

    bah lacking in NSD's after my run of 6 this week. yesterday I had to get a fancy dress outfit for work today (my team were representing Germany), then today I had to put £1 in the charity box for wearing said fancy dress. Tomorrow also won't be an NSD as I have my friends round and I need to get Grub out of my own money, not the shopping budget. bah!

    No no spend day today sadly. And I had £20 in my purse at the start of the week but have bought a bit of junk. However I won't give in.

    Only played hockey once or twice. I wasn't good with the stick. Played netball for many years - none contact sport yeah sure :rotfl: but nothing as violent as hockey seems to be. Enjoying the hockey talk but I'm trying to catch up with the thread and am not sure where the fancy dress fits in yet :rotfl:

    Come on, beanie, what if we let you wear your fairy Tinkerbell dress with the sparkly slippers? (Promise we won't let Hubert near them, with his girly shoe fetish)

    Enjoying the hockey talk but I'm trying to catch up with the thread and am not sure where the fancy dress fits in yet :rotfl:

    Basically,the more surreal and ridiculous,the better.

    Once you have worked out that Igor is chief cook at Ennessddee Towers,heavily into fusion cooking ie mixing edible and non-edible,and just a bit loopy,cunning as a very cunning fox wearing 'I'm a very cunning fox' T-shirt but has a set of very sharp chef's knives (ie don't mess with me) and is the wily partner of nargle in nsd hunts.Hubert is a very sweet,trusting donkey,who is Igor's eager sidekick,likes high heels and frilly underwear,and what he lacks in ability,he makes up with enthusiasm.He also is not quite toilet trained unfortuanately,but don't let that put you off....

    The rest is up to you....:D

    Yes,it feels a bit surreal,to be honest.The thing is,going back to work is just no longer possible.Like I said before,I've got loads of free time.

    Bearing in mind that the World Cup has begun,here are some wise words from the one and only George Best:
