Sorry to butt in, but are we going to do anything about this lettuce leaf/Greebo lookalike/pod person from Mars?

I personally think it looks a bit scared. Maybe we should try to entice it down from the tree.

Are you sure, in my expierience pod thingies from other planets are never a good thing.

Maybe we should try and scare it off?

How do we know which is the real Greebo ???????
Just because greebo is up the tree or the other greebo is up the tree
OH I am sooooooooo confused?????????

*Offers Castle tea, sympathy and a comfy sunlounger*

There, there, dearie! It'll all be better soon!

Has anyone actually tried talking to the lettuce leaf? I mean, if we all have Bable Fish, then we should be able to understand what it says...

*Starts to shout slowly at the lettuce leaf*

Hello! Can you hear me? I say! Hello?

*Silence*

I don't like the way its grinning. Its showing a lot of nasty pointed teeth. And, it keeps flexing its claws in and out.

*Grabs Gwennie and pulls her back away from the tree.*

I don't think making friends is a good idea. If Bluebottle were here he could BURN IT!!!

*Slips into enthusiastic lets be friends mode*

It might just be trying to say something...Perhaps we should offer it one of Greebo's doughnuts...

No, Gwennie. I don't think it wants to eat a donut. I really don't like the way its looking at you...

Maybe it just wants to be friends...

... in a fairly terminal way, be the look of it!

*Seeing the lettuce Greebo is about to spring on her friend, Mari-rae grabs the first thing to hand which turns out to be an open cruet of vinegar and oil salad dressing. She flings it at the crouching cat up in the tree. It crashes into a branch above the imposter and douses it head to tail. The Greebo fake lets out a piercing howl of dismay and begins to shrink back into a leaf of lettuce.*

Holy cats! *Looks at the lettuce leaf still up in the tree.* What should we do with it?

If anyone has a nice red pepper, we could have make a salad.

Not much of a salad... one lettuce leaf and a red pepper... er... ~grin~... me not fancy eating a pod person... even if it's back in lettuce form... you never know who it will turn into next...

*Dreads to think*

Thinking of dread...

Bury it? How about where the moose pit is?

Sounds good to me, who has a spade??? I will dig the hole but not to keen to lift it.

*grabs 10 ft barge pole*

Not a problem.

~Jumps up and sits on the end of the barge pole~...

Getting to heavy for you Menza..za..zaaaa????

Not at all

*he swings barge pole round hit head sending Greebs flying through the air to land daintily on her feet next the the large box of doughnuts, which Menza had placed there earlier*
