    Buffy!Good to see you.....may your emergency fund flourish and may your name strike terror into the hearts of all beard dwelling voles within a three mile radius! :cool: ;)
    Now,I can do tea or...tea.Mrs Doyle won't allow coffee in the Towers any more.I have heard rumours of a jar of coffee that is stashed in Igor's unmentionables drawer,though I have never quite had the courage to investigate....
  • Thanks very much marmite, tea, just milk please!

    Ok, Igor, you had better see Chef and Mrs Doyle about ordering in more food supplies and essentials like loo roll, Ennessdee Towers will be having lots of guests in November. Better see about getting the Cauldron of Doom reinforced as well, to cope with all the extra NSDs.

    Ooh, I do love a new month's challenge!

    Mrs Doyle! Tea please for elfy, and better make it triple strength, anyone who sets a target of 3 in a row on their first month deserves all the caffeine you can supply! (The things some folk will do for an extra prize, even if it is a leftover mouldy pumpkin from Halloween!)

  • Hmmm, them pesky voles again...something has got to be done!
    Do you think, if someone sneaked up on Helga while she was asleep and shaved her beard off, the voles would leave home to find somewhere else to live?

    We tried this before,remember?It didn't end well.....Helga sleeps with one eye open,and Tiddles at her feet.....

    I do have a cunning plan of the like that has never been seen before.We just need to convince jodles that it's completely vole proof...see below! ;)

    jodles16....you know how they say that 'what happens in Vegas,stays in Vegas'?....Nargle had this brilliant idea that she thought you might be ever so kind as to put into effect:could you maybe invite the voles to Vegas with you,and then just....leave them there? 'rubs hands together gleefully'
    Don't you see the beauty of this Hubert?If it all goes pear shaped they'll blame Nargle,won't they,hehehe.Nobody will know that it was little old me that thought up the idea.... ;) Now,Hubert,don't go sharing that with anyone,ok?
    They'd have a ball.Just imagine the size of nest they could build with all the paper money out there! :rotfl:
    You'd be doing them a big favour.They'll build a nest so big that they'll never find their way out....

    Wise words indeed.So,Mrs Doyle,a big pot of the builder's brew triple strength please!
