No, Camelot, you're not too late, but the food table is a bit of a mess. Someone decided to put the cheese fondue and the chocolate fountain mix in the same bowl. There is a large police dog looking very green around the gills. We have no idea how long he was shut in that telephone kiosk, Monnagran ain't telling. One thing is certain, though, I am not cleaning out that kiosk.
I see a little group huddled around a giant teapot with several plates of "skoans" and "skons". Hester has her knitting needles out, having overheard Pollyanna talking about knitted willies. Ming Vase seems to be munching jelly babies again, where on earth is she hiding them?
The DJ says he will definitely play The Time Warp next. We have constructed a little bit of decking for a stage. Come on everyone, it's not far, it's just a jump to the left....One life - your life - live it!7 -
And who is that strange person over there? Carrying a big bag with a DIY Home Enema kit sticking out of it? Aye oop, Fencers, we've got a gatecrasher!One life - your life - live it!5

Oh Camelot, If we had the energy we would start again, just for you. As it is there are leftovers to finish up. Sorry, I think the squirty cream has been all used up. Someone went mad decorating
the fence with it. If I were you I'd gather up a handbag full of goodies and retreat under the trestle table to eat. The neighbours are on the rampage, some nonsense about too much noise, no music licence and causing a nuisance. All lies of course, but discretion being the better part of valour it might be as well to be absent before the Police arrive. They're not going to be too pleased about the condition of their dog either, especially as they have been looking for it for the last 3 years.
If you are bored there is always the washing up..............I believe that friends are quiet angels

Come on everyone, it's not far, it's just a jump to the left....Now wondering how Hester can top Knitted Willies. The mind boggles. I wonder if she ever got the yearned for suede corset. I've just remembered discussing alternative homes for certain shoes with her,The memories in your post alone. I know the words to the Time Warp and the moves. If I had a £ for every time I danced that the world would be my lobster Rodders. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. As none of you can see me I'll dance from my comfy armchair.Oop North is's Scon, always was and always will be.polly Currently reeling from breaking news! Have I been transported to La La Land?

Will this "Nursie" character mind awfully if we ask her to leave? I mean, that face alone has killed the atmosphere!
Monnagran, what are all those flashing blue lights and sirens? Are you late returning your library books again?One life - your life - live it!5 -

Monnagran, what are all those flashing blue lights and sirens? Are you late returning your library books again?Well you could try asking politely but bear in mind what happened when Softstuff tried to send her back to GQ. Decided I can;t dance without burtha it was a long standing arrangement and it would be unfair to let her down.ETA And you've all eaten the food. Not a crumb left for me. Lyn must have drunk the mint tea too. Well you can go off people. Some party this turned out to be. I'm going home in a huff. I told you we needed Softstuff and her mass catering.polly ( The kiss is for the poor police dog ) xIt is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.
