I've just survived a local war...

[p_p_man]

Couple of hours ago, watching one of those mindless family films on TV, when suddenly all hell broke lose.

Plate glass window being smashed, screams, shouts, police running all over the grounds of the apartment block and finally a helicopter hovering overhead with its spotlight sweeping the surrounding area and sometimes shining directly into my sitting room.

Don't what it was all about yet, but it was better than the film...

 

[koalabear]

Hmmmmmmm was it a Lit Helicopter......

They figured out you're a bush-loving porno-hound. You wanker. The FBI has been watching you. It was only a matter of time before they reported you to Scotland Yard. And here you thought you could get away with slowly reading, "My Sister, My Lover: An Arkansas Family Album." Shame, shame, shame!

Ya'll're okay, neh?

 

[modest mouse]

It sounds like you moved to Los Angeles for the afternoon.

Perhaps someone wanted a cold beer instead of warm swill?

 

[PHANTOM5875]

My gosh! Glad to see you're alright (or as right as you'll ever be!)

Um, might be Bush's advance scout team looking for you! I think somone ratted you out to the Republican Party drones about all those naughty, disrespectful posts about the "W" .

And how in the hell did I miss you with that thermal nuclear device I threw at you the other day? That was best one they had at KMart, too! *Damn* just *Damn!*

seriously, keep us posted as to what's going on.

 

[koalabear]

Be careful lover!

 

[SINthysist]

So my guys got to the right address.

Mend your ways or they'll be back!

 

[p_p_man]

Thanks for the concern...

but it seems all over now.

It did occur to me it could be terrorist related because it was all quiet and then BANG, as I said all hell broke loose.

As if the police had already surrounded the block and just moved in mob-handed.

Then I thought it could have been a police chase started somewhere else and just happened to head my way.

Then I thought, dammit can't do much about it anyway, and made myself a cup of tea...and toasted some crumpets.

Nope,can't believe that.

Unless it's the UKIP.

Please forgive a midwestern American...

Re: Please forgive a midwestern American...

a crumpet is similar to what you call a muffin [or is it an english muffin? ] anyway a muffin is like a crumpet only you split a muffin open and butter the inside but a crumpet you butter the top , it has holes in like perforations and the butter melts into them
you ask any brit and they will all tell you they love a bit of crumpet

 

[Moridin187]

From the way you describe it..

Sounds like a drug bust.

Pabloback's remark that "you ask any brit and they will all tell you they love a bit of crumpet" refers to the fact that crumpet is also slang for a woman, girl, bint, muff, shiela, skirt etc...etc

Since you said that in response to my post about it being a drug bust... Are you insinuating you think it was a prostitution ring?

KillerCrumpet

It just doesn't have the same flow to it. I'm sorry, it's just going to have to be KillerMuffin.

Not to mention that Muff or Muffie is far preferable to Crump or Crummie.

Eeeewww.

Brits are weird.

Why not combine the two?

KillerMuppet has a certain ring...

and Mup or Muppie isn't too bad, using a bit of lateral thinking...

Grr that was me. Stupid crappy as compaq powered AOL using computer.

Your war beats the hell out of the date I just had tonight, P_P_Man, I would have gladly traded you. I could not find my supply of bamboo chutes to jam underneath my fingernails and set them on fire. Anything to get away from the boredom of this fucking date. I have a strong suspicion that the people involved in your little war had similar dates, thus the need for entertainment.

Oh. And I thought it was a troll....

Damn!

BTW, P_P_Man, what exactly is a "sitting room"? I know I am a crazy American and all that rot but I tend to sit in all my rooms of the house including the bathroom. I sure would hate to have been the one to choose which room in your house was the only one I could sit in.

I'm sorry Power, I feel your pain, my last date was a nightmare too... *hug*

You might call it a Living Room over there.

It's where you have your main sit down furniture, bookcases, main TV, bar (if you're like me) and other pieces of furniture.

 

[PowerOfOne]

Thank you so much for the explanation, P_P_Man. I plan on traveling to London sometime next year and I had such a fear of choosing which room I could sit in. Yes, it would be called a living room or great room here but mine is not so great so I just call it a living room! Happy Holidays!!
