I know Brits have a reputation for queuing, but I'm too pooped to get in that *pointing at the growing queue*. I'll stick to my tea........and get my topless handshake when you bring it over to me. ;)

"....quite pathetically behaving Englishwoman" !!!!!!!!

You young whippersnapper. If I didn't think you'd like it, you'd go over my knee...........

*taking a sip of my brandy laced tea, raising my eyebrows*......mmmmmmmm not bad.

OK, a poem, *waving my arms at the groans*.........ok, ok, ok...this time it's NOT one of mine.

Bump

Things that go 'bump' in the night
Should not really give one a fright.
It's the hole in each ear
That lets in the fear,
That, and the absence of light!

Da-dahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

*Grabs a clean hi-ball and splashes in the scotch.*

Slinks her way over to the gorgeous destinie (in grand Betty Boop fashion) and leans waaaaaaaaay over to set the drink on the table.

No umbrellas. No fru fru glass.

Glenfiddich straight up, gorgeous.

Hey beautiful, how about a Long Island Ice-Tea. It's been a long day and I need something with a little kick.

And put the beautiful englishlady's tea on my tab. She makes me smile. ;)
 
good girl I like prompt service, now for that tip :devil: downing the drink in a long steady sip
 
Need to jumpstart my writing bone. Can I bother someone for a double espresso and a vodka shot, please?

Aren't you on the clock, handsome?

I'll serve you a tea, but you didn't get it here if you get caught.

:D

No, it's not that bone.

(Lucky for you it's not. You'd have been fresh out of luck if it was.)

:kiss:

I'm going now to read her through. Get with you in a bit?

Yeah, but nobody's looking.

Slow day here, just burried in paperwork. Thought I'd do some of it here while enjoying the view... er... company. :cool:

Well that sounds like a plan to me.

Say, Abs said something about adding on to the place not long ago. You wouldn't happen to know of any reliable contractors that accept non-monetary forms of payment would you?

:devil:

*lifting my cup in a 'thank you' toast to CD.

Thanks. Care to join me? Spare chair at my table.

*Raising my hand to Lucky and raising my voice above the growing din*..Hey barkeep......how about another tea over here......and don't forget the kiss.

Anyone want another poem??

Please do continue with the poems. Abs will have a fit if we don't maintain the topic of the day. She already thinks the place won't be standing when she gets back.

Let's hear it.

Actually I don't know ANY reliable contractors... period. And I should know, I am one.

But after Vella is done with her deck she might be willing to try... if she has any fingers without bandages on them.

I'm sure she would work for... um.. alternate forms of payment. :rolleyes:

Yes, she's quite reliable and damn good if I do say so myself.

Much more handy with power tools than you might think. Safe and effective, even.

And she's quite accomodating when it comes to payment.

Ah that coffee did me good. :)

here's a little something I found:

Air Freshener
by Sandi J. Holland

Brown bubbles skate across
the smooth, scalding surface,
and cluster at the lip
of the hot mug of dark brew.
They jostle each other,
and murmur steamy coffee stories.
Each anxious
to be the first to burst,
and flick her rich, pungent scent
into the crisp, clean air
of early morning.

I'd be honored to join you. Love that english accent.

Another poem, sure.

OK.
Another poem *more groans*..........what I did NOT write..

Jumbo Jet

I saw a little elephant standing in my garden,
I said 'You don't belong in here', he said 'I beg you pardon?',
I said 'This place is England, what are you doing here?',
He said 'Ah, then I must be lost' and then 'Oh dear, oh dear'.

'I should be back in Africa, on Saranghetti's Plain',
'Pray, where is the nearest station where I can catch a train?'.
He caught the bus to Finchley and then to Mincing lane,
And over the Embankment, where he got lost, again.

The police they put him in a cell, but it was far too small,
So they tied him to a lampost and he slept against the wall.
But as the policemen lay sleeping by the twinkling light of dawn,
The lampost and the wall were there, but the elephant was gone!

So if you see an elephant, in a Jumbo Jet,
You can be sure that Africa's the place he's trying to get!

Spike Milligan

*grinning at CD*.....Like that one?

On a clear cold night
The stars shown like diamonds
Not beautiful, but hard and cold
When I last heard the cry of the wild goose

Alone she was flying
High up in the night sky
A black shadow on the field of stars
A plaintive cry has the wild goose

A cold wind stirred
Rustled through the naked trees
I shivered with dread
Yes still came the cry of the wild goose

Over and over
Each time further away
Speeding down night’s shadow
Came the forlorn cry of the wild goose

Tears burned my eyes
A dagger of loss
Twisted inside
With each echoing call of the wild goose

Far down the valley
Beyond site and sound
A last mournful sigh
Came a faint farewell call from the wild goose

Each night now
I go back outside
And listen with out hope
For my heart’s gone the way of the wild goose


My contribution, such as it is.

-Colly
