Egrets are smart enough to know that I am *not* an egress. 
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 27, 2005
They mate very infrequently anyway. Thus the famous 'Egress's Song'
Egrets
I've had a few
But then again
Too few to mention

You are very clever, Trin Tragula. 
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 27, 2005
Oo. Gosh. Thanks! 
*Sees by frowns on certain other faces that there's nothing clever in playing the piano while trying to lure a nervous egress into the bar*
Right. Sorry. *Ducks down behind piano again*
Did we bring any humbugs?

How did the duck down get behind the piano anyway?

*Looks quizzically at the mess*
*Serves a 
to the egress sitting patiently by the bar*
How peculiar. Any idea what they're on about now?
*Egress shakes its head and drinks *

*Hunkered down in camouflage jacket behind the piano sucking a humbug*
Do you think Lady P will let us know when the egress gets here?

Oh. Am I ment to be hiding? 
*dives under teh piano
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 28, 2005
Yeah, me, you Vestie, anyone else who's around and doesn't want to scare off the egress. Is Lady P out there? Maybe she found another hiding place

yeh, I think she was out there, yeh, must have been, cause she was serving a cup of tea to this big kind of bird thing, like an eagress
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 28, 2005
Ah. Probably someone dressed as an egress to make it feel at home when it gets here.
Humbug?

*Egress finishes tea and goes to catch a nap on the piano stool*
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 28, 2005
There's something on my piano stool! 
It might frighten the egress!

Egress: *Shaking up* Um, pardon me sir, but I believe you have just mentioned my name... may I be of any assistance?
The Bar
Trin Tragula Posted Jun 29, 2005
You're an egress! 
Sorry. I'm sure you already knew that
We ... er ... we've been expecting you. Sort of.

Egress: Have you really? I say! Had I known, I would have changed into something more formal, or prepared some sort of speech, at the very least...
The Bar
paulh, vaccinated against the Omigod Variant Posted Jun 29, 2005
I'm sure it would have been an egg-cellent speech.

*Gives the egress the beady eye*
Do you have any intentions of diving into my belly and fishing out something tasty?
*Puts hand over camouflage pond stain*
