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.

Very strange indeed.Perhaps he is snowed in somewhere or got his beard trapped up someones chimney.
I think we ought to send a Biddycross parcel of Becks and a shovel.
All together now....".Free Becks at the Biddygrotto."......I bet he appears post haste.

[Robinia]

Oh well done jno!

I suppose I ought to think about giving this place a good scrub for the New Year and that bin is starting to hum a bit. I'll bring in some Vim & Brasso in the morning & if the lead will stretch far enough (now we're having to use the old CB's electricity sockets) I'll have a zoom round with the hoover. Mind you last time I used it one of neti's support stockings went round & round the brush & jammed it...... I dread to think what's down the back of these chairs.....

[Robinia]

Oh hi shaneystar I was distracted for a moment & you sneaked in. There's only one thing for it we'll have to don the fishnets - that should get him screaming in. It's a bit cold though - do you think they'll still look good over the top of support tights?

[shaneystar2]

Empty cans of Becks and old hairnets I expect Robinia. Hang on.....I have just found a set of dentures..I wonder who they belong too !
I will pop round in the morning and give you a hand.Will bring a wrap around pinny and a headscarf. Now...where did I put that Kleeneze mop....and the dried out tin of Mansion polish.

[shaneystar2]

Well Robinia I dont know about the fishnets! It is so cold here I am wrapped up like a bag lady. Shane looks like the wolf from Red Riding Hood ..snuggled up in his basket with a blanket over his head !

[VINNY100_2]

[Robinia]

The curse of the biddies strikes again!!!!!!!!! I think the cbers have made effigies & are having fun with them....
I sit here now with frozen peas on my brow bone - just went to see what the weather was doing, looked round the curtain & smashed my head on the wall.....now got a brow bone like Herman Munster!! Gonna look a doll tomorrow....I'll say it was a skiing accident!!!!!

[shaneystar2]

What is the matter with this ruddz kezboard !!

[Robinia]

Hi Vinny that post wasn't here a minute ago - heck it must be this bemp on zee 'ed.....

[shaneystar2]

I have just logged off and logged in again and it seems that my keyboard is O.K again now.Must have been a gremlin in the works somewhere. Just testing....yyyyy zzzzz '''''...Great ! I was beginning to think I was seeing things. I shall have to ask Picky when he gets home why this happened.
Anyway Vinny we are on our way ..on the Biddybus...armed with Vick and string vests..hide the booze !!

[Robinia]

I'll be the one in the dark glasses......sob.....my son thinks it's funny..........

[shaneystar2]

Oh dear Robinia...try witch hazel...that will take the bruising down. Sons...pain in the proverbial at times...picky dumped a load of washing on me today...had a tuck in and cleared off again after tea !

[Robinia]

Mine's on the other end of msn shaneystar so I can't even throw something at him!! We're going to look like a scene from Casualty in this Grotto by New Year

btw Ed's got a lot of posts to read on here to catch up!

[Robinia]

Think I'd better go while I'm still in one piece......Vinny please don't sneeze over the bran tub...... oh you did.....

.......nite....

[shaneystar2]

Well I hope they don't close us down!! I can't see that happening though..we are sooooo...inoffensive !! I wonder if will make a thousand posts by the New Year.Your Inbox must be swamped by now !
You are clever with this MSN or whatever it is.I really have no idea how to use this.I tend to just email people. Picky MSN's his girlfriend in London and gets pictures and makes me wave to her on it. It's all beyond me !!
I am angling for a laptop for my birthday from my menfolk..so you never know I may get the hang of all this technology yet !

[shaneystar2]

Didn't see that post Robinia..lack of concentration.....Nite Nite.
Thousand posts ...here we come!!

looks like AB Suggestions is becoming the new ChatterBank as old hands sneak on to chat quietly, knowing AB Ed's out of town and the monks are comatose on communion wine. But for a change they are minding their language. Biddy politeness is obviously catching.
