    Shame that Blackadder wasn't around with the Romans.

    Can imagine it now, with Hugh Laurie playing a dippy Caesar, or maybe Stephen Fry playing a really debauched version?

    Baldrick, peel me a dormouse, I feel a cunning plan coming on.......

    Oops, it's not yet July and Igor is already trying to tart up Ennessdee Towers to look like a forum, he's even got Knitwitch knitting up loads of laurel leaves for the Ennessdee games....and Hubert is in training for the gladiator event........get back to the program, boys, it's still June and there are still a couple of days to get some more Jolly Hockey Sticks NSDs in.....nice effort, all you chaps who are on or over target, lashings of strawberries and cream and ginger beer for you! And just the lashings for me, as I will not meet my target this month :(

    YES PLEASE!!!! Amazing work - my vote is for the Laurie dippy Ceasar mindlessly ailing around unawares of maybe Hubert's somewhat obvious antics plotting in the background....:T

    I've had a look at images of Roman food,but then was put off slightly when remembering that they also were fond of the vomatorium!:(

    Roman togas,hmm.So I've uploaded pics of Misters Palin (Pontius Pilate),James (Mark Anthony),Williams (Caesar) and Howerd (Roman civilian???).

    Will that do as prizes?I think they're funny....:)

    Sounds like our July thread is going to be nearly as bonkers as the June one.

    Just don't take any of his nonsense.Polishing the silver does not include cleaning his chamber-pot!:eek:
