  • I can't wait either, marmite, ask Igor to serve it up now and put us all out of our misery. Then if kerri distracts Hubert by showing him her new eight inch heel pink stilettos, some of us can load him up with the offending food and tell him to "just take this old stuff to the tip,Hubert" and the rest of us can distract Igor by threatening to throw his recipe book collection in the charity bin.....

    Knitwitch you need to get a move on knitting the cobweb bunting, you realise the German Oompah band need Halloween cozzies as well? And don't forget Die Guten Alten Jungen are now back from their stint in cabaret with the Berliner Polizei, so will need knitted basques and suspenders a la Rocky Horror.........

    I'm making a Fochabers gingerbread today,so could we substitute that.I suppose that I can add some pink icing.I don't want to see a sulky Hubert - not a pretty sight!

    I'm not much good at knitting,but do enjoy embroidery.Maybe I can help out Knit Witch,who has a lot on her plate.

    No Igor,I don't fancy embroidering anything on your longjohns,thank you very much....especially not 'Numero Eins Cheffy of the Year',or 'Get It while It's Hot!'.
    How about 'Hazmat Central'? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    NSD #14 yesterday. I don't think I've ever had so many spendy days left available at this point of the month!

    I'm so desperate to go another day before we spend the inevitable, I've said I will cook this evening for us, else OH will no doubt go and buy extra bits (I NEVER cook!)

    Aha,but is it a spendy day if your OH spends?After all,you can't control his spending.

    bizzybeeI'm waiting for the good news! :)

    Cobwebs are done (check!), knitted pumpkins done (check!), bright orange knitted Lederhosen for the Oompah Band done (check!), Oh Goddess Basques for Die Guten Alten Jungen ..... might need a large Schnapps and 16 Steins of beer before I start those :rotfl:
    Must use my stash up!

    Oooh gingerbread to help the Steins of Beer down :beer: (hmm any chance of some Pfeffernusse as well?), then we can sit and knit and stitch and get Die Guten Alten Jungen's costumes ready :T:p

    What a coincidence...Fochabers is a very special gingerbread,which has dried fruit,ground almonds and beer in it.Well actually,I'm using Newcastle Brown Ale,which is a nice tipple.It means that I can finish off the dregs -I don't usually imbibe. ;)

    Igor,quick!We need some Pfeffernusse right away.Epic knitting and embroidery session underway!!!!! :T:T:T

    No, Hubert, vampire donkeys don't exist. Well, perhaps they do in your universe but they do not wear pink sparkly cloaks. It's black or black, make your choice.
