    Nice one Knit Witch!

    The Gods must be smiling on us.

    'clears throat' er...did anyone mention that Igor might need a new chest wig?I confiscated it to teach him a lesson,and apparently Mrs Doyle has been using it as a duster.
    You couldn't by any chance just,er,knit him one,could you?
    If you have a spare moment that is...
    Yes, in ginger,and infused with the delicate scent of anchovy.

    As per the June thread, I have been given strict instructions by Tattywotsit to make one in silver lame for the wedding day :eek:

    Whee,we have a newbie!Welcome Ratison! :hello:
    Budge up everyone,more space needed on our battered sofa.
    Now,Ratison:would you like tea or tea?And can you bring our own cup...we've run out,unless you're happy with an empty jam jar? :(
    Mrs Doyle has finally put her foot down and has banned coffee from Ennessdee Towers! :eek:
    Coffee is evil,apparently.Tea is not.
    Sorry folks.
    PS I've hidden the instant coffee behind the cistern btw.... :cool:

    I'll just have tap water please - I may get thrown out of the thread in disgust, but I really don't like tea, or coffee! And I've got my own reusable bottle, I'm so MSE! :money:

    'Mrs Doyle snorts in disbelief at Ratison's claim not to like tea.'.

    Personally I don't have a problem with that.I'm glad you've got your own reusable bottle,as Igor has run out of empty jam jars,so it's back to using his antique spitoons. :eek:

    Now for some reason,I have decided that you must be male.
    That being the case,Igor would like to invite you to his Stag Night.So far his guest list includes:
    Swedish Chef
    Hubert,even though he'll no doubt turn up in a frock...
    Bert Scroggins (local bad boy)
    Igor's sister Helga.Ok,I know she's a female,but she has a beard,so it's ok.
    The Good Ole Boys- fresh out of chokey.
    That's it you see... more fellas needed.

    If,by any chance,you are not a bloke,Helga could lend you a beard...:)
    Igor has asked dearest mamma,but she hasn't rsvp'd yet.

    Well if Igor's having a stag do then we should organise a hen do for Tatty! Mrs Doyle can do the catering ( lots of tea and cupcakes), kerri can show Tatty how to drive Igor wild by pole dancing, knitwitch could have us all knitting the decorative bunting and garlands for the reception, Bert Scroggins' s sister Bertha could rehearse our wedding day hair and makeup ( you know Bertha Scroggins, don't you, Hair Stylist to the Stars, Corkscrew Perms a Speciality), we could get all the dirt on how Igor and Tatjiana first got together, yes, a fab hen party could be had for very little outlay - how MSE is that?

    Anyway, as Wimbledon has now started, how is Bert getting on finding us a spare court to play on? Hubert is limbering up in anticipation, and is impatient for knitwitch to finish his razzle dazzle ball boy outfit. Igor can't understand why his magnificent chest wig suddenly disappeared, appeared again looking limp and washed out, then turned silver. Never mind, Igor, just have a warm up before playing, I am sure Cheffy will let you have some of his meatballs to practise with...

    I'd forgotten all about Tatty's hen do! :eek:

    That'll be a laugh all right.

    I don't think I've ever seen our Tatty laugh though...

    PS Hubert would like to set the record straight.He is appearing as ballgirl. :D
    I just hope that he can still get into his spanx.He's been guzzling back Igor's new 'chunky monkey' ice cream like there's no tomorrow.I just hope that it doesn't upset his delicate tummy.
