I'll double away now and get a load of chicken & mushroom.
By the way - Most of Heron are travelling out as Pirates - (why because we 'arrrre') - because we can, and it's funny and it's the 20th one, and nothing is wrong in carnival land. So please feel free to join in if you wish.

Are you into pea & ham soup and horse stew then?
A couple of years ago the Domstädters had a horse-drawn wagon in the Tuesday carnival and one of the Klippen-Kloppens looked a bit mangy. I said then "It won't be long before that one is in the stew pot", sure enough, last year they didn't have any horses!
In respect of Debbies absence this year, we shall have to have her usual triple- decker banana split with extra cream and chocolate sauce in her honour. Diet banana, of course!

Safeguard 2 clips - yadayadayadaI was in the pikey/polish shop - not the shoe cleaning type polish but the country type polish - called ALDI - I know the shop is not Polish but it's full of poles - no - before you all start not the dancing type, the being from poland type......anyway i digress
HANDWARMERS - pack of 2 magic handwarmers - £1.29. They look a bit like those chicken breasts that women stick in their bra's to do the pushy up thing.
These have a magic button that makes them all warm for about an hour, stick them in boiling water for 10 minutes and they are good to go again - but at 1.29 I thought they were a bargain.
One major advantage over the burning stick type is that there is no burning stick to fall out of the burner and ruin your Nos ones (grommit!) although they may still melt the chocolate razzed from the carnival on monday in your nos one jacket (can't remember who that was, erm erm was it also gromit!!).

LADIES! - with reference to Dolly's post about Magic Handwarmers, why not save yourself £1.29 to spend on essential chocolate and kill two birds with one stone? I will happily volunteer (free of charge) to stick my hands up your vest, thereby providing any uplift you may need, it will keep my hands warm and also stop your lady-lumps getting chilly! ADDED BONUS - I won't be able to play in this position thereby saving the band, and the populace of Cologne in general, the earache they would normally get.
Applications in writing please, first come - first served. Hurry, this offer may not last!

In reference to my previous post about not reading the forum and eating lunch.. I must now also remember not to read the forum whilst at work - or at least not on the ward... any hope that my patients and the nursing staff here ever had that i was a sound professional have just been totally shattered by my fits of hysterical giggles and the need for tissues I was crying so hard with laughter!!
Thankyou boys - you've cheered up my miserable oncall weekend a treat...
*mwah* *mwah* *mwah*

and on a serious note, but I'll be brief..
don't take tea and coffee rations as Dave and I went shopping yesterday and spent 100 quid on supplies! actually most of that went on beer for the Heron band fridge for sunday but we've got tea, coffee, hot choccie, milk and 108 bags of crisps to keep us all nutritionally supported!!
Page is in charge of the urn!

That reminds me, I need to get my caffeine supplies (cos I don't drink tea or coffee)
A trip to Tescos it is for muchos Coke Zero!

no, sorry, I already asked Dolly to go back to the pole shop and get me a pair of the cheap polish ones ( me working all weekend stuck in miserable hospital can't shop!!) I did however ask him to get a long silver pole for dancing round if he found one that fits on the bus - we could stick it up in the middle of the dance floor at the nightclub gig.... or just give it to Ron as we halt in the gay quarter!!! 'bout time we came up with some new dance routines don't you reckon???

Bob... with reference to your havd warming service...
1. Do I get my usual Seahawk discount? 
2. Is there a current BOGOF offer? 
3. Or do you do 2 for 1? 
4. If I bring some friends, do we qualify for grope discount? 
5. Is it true you feel a right tit whilst doing this? 
Thanks in advance...

I have it on good authority.....well from Debbie in any case, that at the exact time of the ice cream festivities, she will be sat in the local, eating a banana spilt already pre-ordered so she can indeed be with us in spirit.
And Bob, great idea, should you get bogged down with the responses for free uplifts, then i will be there to lend a hand....or two !
|

Oh and another thing, Gromit happened to mention i wasnt allowed to call Naked Marching. Tell me that aint so!
|
ZedHorn
|
just call it and watch - but if you yell it - you get em off first!
|
Princess Fiona
|
Bob a good plan but you may need both hands for one breast with me!
Also might hinder my clarinet playing.

There seems to be a grave misunderstanding here! Surely it would take two volunteers to one set of warming exercises. One hand per person should be in charge of (a) Flask, hip, whiskey. (b) glass of Kolsch,(c) other form of alcoholic beverage? Are we there yet?? Dave XX

I am hatching a cunning plan for such eventualities..................

On the subject of 'handwarming', and with a personal perspective...
if you can find 'em... you can 'ave 'em!

you do make me titter...
but only a little, obviously!
