Cameras? A-ha... what er, cameras?

*sidles towards door*

There aren't any crisps in _this_ bundle...

Darn, forgot about the security cameras.

*Assembles his sniper's rifle to 'retire' the cameras*

*a waiter glides up to Lil and presents her with a small, tastefully wrapped package as a prize for being the 800th post*

Peregrin, all this time you've been packing heat??
Those are Chrome's securicams, not ours. Remember, we are all guests at his hotel...

*Walks in*

Hello, folks. I heard a rumour that there were some, um ...

*looks around furtively and lowers voice*

Walkers crisps ...

*raises voice back to normal*

to be had around here somewhere.

*Eyes Mr T's trenchcoat, one eyebrow raised*

shh! I think there's a police car rolling by.

I love his books too much to stop reading them. It's made worse by the fact that he comes from 5 miles away, went to my school and his agent lives up the road. I can't get away!

*munch, crunch*

Yes Garius, the rumours are true (well, most of them). However, it seems I may be

*swallow*

running short of supplies.

*throws scrunched up crisp-packet in bin from opposite side of the room. Looks smug.*

Whoops! I'd better retrive that. While Keeping My Country Tidy I seem to have inadvertantly left evidence on display.

*concerned*
Careful there, Mr. T, that's not just a waste bin, it's a Succ-U-Bus.

Umm... how did you manage to get one of *those*?

Nobody order the chicken

and don't you *dare* put me in it

*raises eyebrows*

That almost sounded like a challenge.

*Peregrin flutters nervously away from Garius Lupus*

I thought you were a valiant knight...

Are you the kind that says 'Ne'?

Nay...'Ni!' No?

Ekky-ekky-ekky-ekky-z'Bang, zoom-Boing, z'nourrrwringmm

Ni

Aaaaaargh...

Like I said *she said* it's not our hotel, it's Chrome's. When he commissioned me to do the decor, he said he wanted it art deco, like the Starship Titanic, and I guess he went whole hog and got the proper appointments. You'll have to ask him when he gets off holiday next week.

Can the Succ-U-Bus cause bodily harm? I thought it just sent things places.

Hey, no-one's putting our feathered soon-to-be-president anywhere near the Succ-U-Bus, waste disposal or air conditioning systems.

At least, not without his express permission.

*Peregrin bribes the Succ-U-Bus with a chicken not to eat him*
