*Calls over her shoulder...*
Who else is for a drink? Pierce? Evil One?
(to Kes) I like a nice large vt, with a slice of fresh lime squeezed over the top. Whiskey and water for you, Archangel? I'll get them.
*She pats his shoulder and is surprised. Her hand lingers there for an instant.* Do you do a lot of swimming?

Mari-ray...I think you forgot to take your medication.
Kes, thanks for thye yummy drink!!!! And your first aid...I think I'm gonna have a nasty mark letf from that flea covered fur ball.
That may be why, St Drangonfly, mari-ray said you were brave, or however she worded it. Or...it could be that I tend to fall in love with EVERYONE who kisses me in such a tender way.
You'll understand, won't you St. D., if I leave the flea dips to you?
I'll keep vacuuming though....I brought my super vac. from home.
Gotta' be sure to kill all the eggs they've left behind. *yucky*
Just (please) keep the vodka flowing... *daydreams about loading the loo with flea dip & doing as Kes has joked about -then gets a mental picture of TRYING to stuff a cat into the loo*
Thanks for the kisses Pierce They still hurt like the Dickens, but who cares?

I hopes yer don't mind, but I tooks the liberty of layin' in a few essentials fer when yer moves back. The heating is on, the fire is ready to light, should yer takes a fancy for it, and the house has been cleaned top to bottom.
PANDORA's BOX is ready fer your return, at your leisure.
I'll calls by in a day or so, once yer settled and ter see iffen all is t' yer satisfaction. *grins his gap-toothed grin and heads to the bar. He gets an

Ah! Not swimming - it's the wings - they develop the shoulder muscles.
