COLD DARK ROOM

[johnandjade]

Chopped a tree down on a railway embankment once, five or six of us carried it back to our student house, at least 20 feet if I remember correctly, put it in the stairwell After a week or two we all went home for Christmas
Came back to find the whole lower floor an inch deep in brown pine needles, the cleaner had gone on strike (unsurprisingly) and refused to clean up
So we had to do it

i remember you telling me this on holibags

going to send a wee email to miss womblyn just to say we miss her

Yes, good idea, but if her computer's completely knackered..........................?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

dito! . mr adam really did a great job gathering and trapping us all

Indeed

Yep, and you're not being allowed out, either.
Noel already escaped once.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

@AZtortMom : did you poke John in the eye with your big thumbs up?

Nose biffings are usual in here.
Hello, Yvonne, hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

found out that i am being pulled from my placement to run base between christmas and new year, not good.

i am expected to lie and say i'm on holidays as they will scrap contract if they can't get me (smug face)


tricky situation, i detest lies (with exception of jades bum looking small ) however, i don't want to risk my job :/.

Hmmmmmmm, difficult.
The one sort of lie is easy, no wifey, you have no wrinkles whatsoever, but other stuff is hard.
But so is losing the job.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

wayhey!!! . i'm waiting on little 'card fillers' arriving then i can mail out

i could only get X4 the same, so have ordered the same (but different) items for ed and adam, that way i can ship separately from my TORTOISE and no one is the wiser

I have been out all day haggling and have now decided not to send anything to anyone.
Just sit here and see what i get.
Humbug!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I hope all your TORTOISE participants share your treasure troves with us. That's pretty exciting too. I'm anxious to see all the pressies.

I'm only anxious to see mine!

Looking good, Noel!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Have fun.
*Road sign*!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Watch out people red heads can be real hard to get along with !!!

Hello, Gramps.
I had three red-headed girlfriends and two of them were fiery as could be.
The third was a lamb.
(not literally, though i am half Welsh).

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

[Tidgy's Dad]

Very true.
Good evening, Gillian.

Here's a sneak preview of my card


I have another 4. If someone would like one - they're special for this occasion - who hasn't joined the Card Messaging thing then just PM me. Nothing expected in return.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

great minds think alike... but idiots seldom disagree

No we don't!

Hi, Kenny!
Crikey, John, for a moment I thought you'd had too many takeaways recently.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good evening all.

I'm on my way home from Twickenham. It's in West London and I live to the South East of the city. Journey should take around an hour as long as the M25 motorway behaves itself (it's notorious for traffic jams)

Here's the stadium

I forgot to take any photos of the match, sorry.

England v Argentina wasn't a good match. The referee blew his whistle constantly and never let play get going. England won, however.

Afterwards England Women played Canada. It was a much better match. England won 39-6. (We beat Canada in the Womens Rugby World Cup final in 2014 too)

Sorry about the ref.
Still, you had a good day I expect.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Gosh, I'm so predictable.

How nice of you!
i wonder if Zac would like one?
He can't afford much, so can't reciprocate, i shouldn't think, and Christmas is not usually done here, but we always get him a pressie and he saves up to buy us a book, bless him!
