Good bye answerbank

[mibn2cweus]

Since Naomi will not give me the ****ing key I have decided to follow Jesus and be a Christian just like Theland. I am ashamed of my past history here so I'm going to devote the time I used to spend on ab to reading the Bible. No question really because I no longer care about what people think. I'll get all my answers from God from now on thank you.

Well lets put it this way, I was told his wife was there and my polite response was... 'He's married?! To a female?!'

Anyway, other than being a sleeze with a questionable sexuality he was also a good thirty years older than me, short and irritating.

[China Doll]

Is that the front cover of Naomi's Carland novel then?

[Theland1]

No, it is part of a concerted campaign to shower you with romantic ideas and help you find the man of your dreams.

[China Doll]

I spent all yesterday watching the BBC adaption of Pride and Prejudice. Today I watched Sense and Sensibility.

Did you know Joseph Lister invented the carbolic acid spray which was the first sort of antiseptic used while operating on a patient. A lesser known fact is that he also invented the rubber gloves for the sterile enviroment too. This was because the nurse he worked with was allergic to the carbolic acid spray and would have had to stop working with him. Damn good job he did. He winded up marrying her.

My romantic sentiments, while not always obvious, remain perfectly intact.. ;0)

[Theland1]

I too love those period dramas, and simply adore anything with a romantic tale .... as I'm sure Mibs 'n Naomi do also, so, therefore, pardon the intrusion, but I (we?) are just standing on the sidelines shouting our support for you, and rather selfishly, (that's me!), sharing in the joy of your romances.
Oh if I were only a lot lot lot lot lot younger, but I'm not, so you'll have to date Mibs instead. I hear he's a very good cook, and uses expensive soft rinse in his washing - what a catch!)

[Theland1]

Where is the old goat anyway? What a host! Leaves his guests standing in the hall whilst he is hanging by his feet in the attic!

[Theland1]

I knew about Lister and the carbolic acid spray, but didn't know about the rubber glove thingy or him marrying his nursing assistant.
The good ole rubber glove - what splendid memories we all have of our first encounter ...... the snapping sound of the glove going on, the freezing cold gel, and then ..... "Geronimo ....... "

[Theland1]

The black cloud is sending me a message, it promises to float away for an hour or two, so I too will go and hang by my feet for a little while.
Bless.

[naomi24]

See! There you go again! I go to bed and you all come to life, and I get up in the morning and find a mountain of posts to catch up on. Just what are you? Oh, the mysteries of Answerbank!! Now, let me think. Mmmm ..... China's blood-red lipstick, Mibs hanging by his feet in the attic, and Theland off to join him .... could it be vampires? Or .... thinks ..... maybe ...... are you fairytale people? That's it! Hanging by feet - Jimmy Choo - socks! I think I've cracked it! It's all about feet! You're the Shoemaker's Elves, aren't you? Blimey, you never know who you're talking to on here, do you?

[China Doll]

I've checked my ears and I'm not an elf!

[Theland1]

.... and I don't wear green tights.

[Theland1]

I wouldn't mind meeting one though.

[Theland1]

Mibs should meet one.
He needs to get out a little more.

[China Doll]

Is it wrong that I love that staircase?

[Theland1]

The inside of the ivory tower is quite beautiful isn't it?

Do you think he does his own cooking, or is he a pot noodle man?

[naomi24]

Ha ha!! Caught you!

[Theland1]

Well Naomi, just in time to give your expert opinion:-
Is it O.K. to serve pot noodles at dinner parties, because I strongly suspect there won't be much exotic on the menu when the great Cweus decides to feed us.
Just going out on my bike for an hour to work up an appetite.

[naomi24]

And why not indeed?! What better accompaniment to a Tescos 'blue stripe' cheese and pineapple pizza - with tomato sauce, of course - served with a tasteful garnish of mushy peas - and all washed down with a pint of fine vintage brown ale? Does your culinary expertise know no bounds, Theland? It's ..... awe-inspiring .... ground-breaking ...... phenonmenal. And .... hem, hem .... since I do consider myself to be somewhat on the .... shall we say (although with all due modesty) .... A-list, I eagerly await the arrival of that tastefully engraved invitation. Oh, Gordon Ramsey, eat your heart out.

Go on, tell us, Theland, tells us ..... when's the next dinner party round your gaff? Got me posh frock and platform shoes sorted. Can't wait!! Coming 'China? Mibs?

Now there's a thought. Have you ever eaten a mushy pea - and if so, how can you tell you've eaten only one? Ahhh ... the mysteries of life.

[Theland1]

Pot Noodle has a fantastic history you know!

[Theland1]

The mushy pea, when squashed, forms a circle 1cm diameter, and the trick is to boil them to within a google of the event horizon, when the mush phenomenon causes structural collapse of the pea itself.
Experience will determine an exact count of peas consumed.
