*Admires the view as E's Lego blocks are cleared of cement*

I think the Aussie immigration services should be warned about Mari's somewhat unstable friends who just might visit her one day to escape the smiley - snowman and smiley - bat of the Northern Hemisphere!

*Winks at Pan who is grinning stupidly at a nice young man while he removes any remaining lumps of cement from her bare feet*

Pan! Stop it! I can almost hear what you're thinking! smiley - yikessmiley - tongueout

*Takes E's temperature and pulse. Wraps his arm in a blood pressure cuff and takes his blood pressure. Pulls the scales out from the Ladies loo and weighs him. Stands him against the wall and marks off his exact height. Snaps on a pair of thick rubber gloves.*

Ok, Englander... up on the table with you. This won't hurt me a bit. We'll soon have you put right.

:: passes mari-rae a fresh stick of butter and retreats to the other side of the room. Makes Arutha's life a whole lot easier by simply materializing a smiley - stout for himself. Relaxes in a corner with the smiley - stout, resting his new tribble - launcher against the table, and lights a cigarette::

Honey, these are only enamel... you need steel plated dentures if you want to bite bricks. Do you want me to replace them for you?

*Hopes that Mari enjoyed examining E's choppers, even whilst wearing rubber gloves and that she soon discovers the colloquial application of the word "chopper" within the UK* smiley - laugh

I'm surprised that E has more than one chopper, never mind a full set! smiley - wow

*Sips her smiley - coffee and admires Thog's tribble launcher* smiley - winkeye

You know Thog...Smoking is bad for one's chest! smiley - tongueout

*Folds her arms to muffle the purring sounds emanating from the region of her own chest* smiley - angel
