BiddyGrotto

[Robinia]

It seems we're not getting any changes on AB 'til after xmas so I've set up a grotto for us. Sorry it's a bit like a scene from Great Expectations but I've sprayed a few cobwebs silver & blown the dust off me doileys so please come in & sit down.
What do all the biddies/grumps want to find in their wrinkly stockings this year then? Do you like all this festivity or will you be the grumpy gran/grandpa from hell this year?
Please feel free to take a present out of the bran tub as you leave by the way. Contents may be unidentifiable....oops sorry...be varied.

I've had one cross stitch on the go since we moved into this house in 1983 - I've still got the receipt in the bag!

I was a very busy working woman in those days - but will probably get to finish it before too long!

[smudge]

IAP - I think you've had that carrot in the sun too long!

Cor she's tasty Robinia...adjusts classes...er..maybe not....is that a wig ...or is she being stalked by ..Roy Wood..!( :)

[netibiza]

and why did I have to go guarding the Biddygrotto in an old tartan blanket and SHE gets a rather super outfit (to my mind). Why can't we all wear a Biddybank uniform - something polyester springs to mind, lisle stockings and rubber corsets (down Vinny it won't affect IAP). Black bombazine coat - wow!!! Anyone who doesn't know bombazine must leave the biddygrotto immediately.

[netibiza]

Oh so true IAP and mine is getting lost a bit too often these...... ... umm what was I saying?

[netibiza]

Type of thing we would wear with that vibrating bomb No?

[woofgang]

love the thought for the day IAP, got to add that I don't worry unless it takes its time coming back....what a homely little spot this is

[Robinia]

You're a lively lot of Biddies - shouldn't you all having afternoon naps? I just permanently sleepwalk.

IAP love the thought (so me) and I'm printing it out to stick next to my hat peg.
You didn't have to buy me the gear neti - thanks all the same - I've already got most of those. (don't tell the others tho'.... what I do when I leave the Grotto etc etc....)

That bloomin' BlunderWoman's a bit over-keen...wanted to see my ID. I soon told her.....'Look love, I've been menopausal for years - I don't need one of them......' Anyway we've sorted it now, we compromised & I showed her my gallstones. I had 'em made into a keyring want to see?

[woofgang]

cool Robinia, had you ever thought of earrings?

[Robinia]

woofgang I had my teeth made into a matching necklace & earring set.... now got a permanent grin from ear to ear.

[VINNY100_2]

LOL ...

3 old Biddies were sitting on a park bench. Robinia woofgang and netti. Just then a flasher runs up to them, opens his coat and exposes himself to the 3 ladies. Immediately Robinia has a stroke. Woofgang has a stroke also. But netti, being feeble and weak couldn't reach that far...( :)

[Robinia]

hahaha...you want to bet Vinny? They don't call her Twizzle for nothing.

[netibiza]

IAP you are priceless!!!!

[Robinia]

That dragon on the door is really starting to get annoy me now....the woman's got the memory of a gnat. Insisted on searching me trolley & now she's gone & confiscated me smellin' salts....said no sniffing substances in the Grotto. She should try surviving in this atmosphere with paraffin & carbolic fumes. She's out of here tomorrow .....sorry IAP you'll have to do a stint on the door. I'll leave the choice of uniform to you but try to look mean - I'll lend you my teeth.

IAP...hurry up your be late.. here ( :)

Biddys xmas party gets under way

[Robinia]

Now it's all getting a bit raucous in here & standards are starting to slip. It's time we calmed down so I've brought along a wise old woman to give us the benefit of her experiences & introduce some spiritual enlightenment. I know you'll make her welcome....
