Wine Tasting & Cat Rescue Stall
Santragenius V Posted Sep 12, 2003
*suitably impressed*
That Brasso price just outshines everything I've seen...

There's a proper place for puns like that, you know.

Santragenius V Posted Sep 12, 2003
I know But a pun out of place is so like a fish out of water. Out of plaice...

I've got just the thing to go with fish!
*Kes produces another mystery bottle. Poured carefully so as not to disturb the generous amount of sediment … a cloudy straw-coloured liquid, redolent of jackdaw's nest.*
Go on - try this!
*(Hopes it won't cause digestive haddock ... SORRY! havoc)*
You'll never guess this one!

*Watches as the tasters sink to the ground. Waves to Titania.*
They seem to like it! Would you care to try my senna pod and cauliflower chardonnay?

Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Sep 15, 2003
Senna pod and cauliflower? Eh - is that what they had?
I think I'll pass, but maybe I'll try it later - first I have a little errand to run...
Courtesy of the festival committee for doing such a splendid job!
*hands Archangel Kes a today's special - apple yoghurt ice cream with cinnamon cookies and baked apples - from The One And Only Hati's Ice-Cream Stall <./>T315153&latest=1</.>*
*drifts off to visit more stalls*

Excuse me, is this the cat tasting and wine rescue stall? 
<-- very excited

Santragenius V Posted Sep 16, 2003
Well - some of the wines certainly could do with a little rescue...

*nods*
The senna pod and cauliflower needs the emergency services - including the Coast Guard.

Kes Posted Sep 16, 2003
Yes, d'E, this is the very stall! Care for a catnip mouse or a nip of something exotic by way of wine? (Wine not, I hear you ask) Pay no attention to the critics ... and the rumours of an impending biohazard ban are quite unfounded ... as yet ...

dElaphant (and Zeppo his dog (and Gummo, Zeppos dog)) - Left my apostrophes at the BBC Posted Sep 18, 2003
Well if the catnip mouse will attract the cats, tie one to Zeppo's collar. He would like to taste a tabby, and maybe a siamese.

Real dogs don't eat siamese. Perhaps Kes can russle up a battle-scarred ginger tom.

Kes Posted Sep 18, 2003
I'd rather just anaesthetise Zeppo with a shot of quince and WD40 vodka ...
Wine Tasting & Cat Rescue Stall
dElaphant (and Zeppo his dog (and Gummo, Zeppos dog)) - Left my apostrophes at the BBC Posted Sep 18, 2003
Eat? Who said anything about eat? Zeppo just wants a good lick, and he promises to spit out afterwards.
But I might try some of that vodka.

*Pours sample into doggy bowl.*
I'll see if there are any volunteer cats ... but I doubt it!
Wine Tasting & Cat Rescue Stall
Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Sep 18, 2003
*looks at the doggy bowl somewhat perplexed*
Does this mean Zeppo will be served his 
in a shot glass?

dElaphant (and Zeppo his dog (and Gummo, Zeppos dog)) - Left my apostrophes at the BBC Posted Sep 18, 2003
Now there's a quandary! Whatever is the proper place setting for cat tasting?
Sorry, Zeppo. You might have to wait until we figure this out.
