Well ... almost Spring in the Northern Hemisphere ... . I think a load of flowers around the Hall will look very nice .... and there's a good spot over in the corner for the bar. Now ... I must read all about our new Saints, and get ready for the ceremony. .... I wonder where the Sainting Sword is?
*Starts rummaging around behind the raised dais*

*floating in with armfuls of tulips and dafodils*

Oh my... *looks around* ...this place needs dusting!

Yes ... it is a bit .. well ... dusty! You haven't seen the Sainting Sword anywhere have you? Ooh! The flowers look great!

The sword? As far as I can remember it materializes out of thin air if you stretch out your hand - but only at the time of the ceremony...

*remembers practising with a broomstick herself*

Oh right ... yes ... I'm always twitchy about these magic things that don't let you rehearse them .... Not to worry. It'll be alright on the day. There should be a list of the new patronages somewhere too ... *Rummage, rummage* My memory is terrible!

Well, that's why we always have a or attending the ceremony, right?

*lays down flowers on marble table, goes looking for brooms*

*Holds up list* Hah! Here it is! Found the list of new saints! Have you found the flower vases?

*starts dusting away cobwebs and upset the *
Shoo!
You can come back later

*arranges Titania's beautiful flowers in several crystal vases that just happen to be available*

Now then, what else do we need?
Oh yes, a bar.


*starts placing bottles ofin ice-buckets and lines up severalon the bar*
*makes sure thepump is working for Saint Necessarily-So and secretly hopes Saint Jeremy and Justin will drop by for a or three*

Hi GB! Good to see you again! Sorry I haven't been around much recently! Thank you for setting up the bar .... I'll be over and mix a few buckets of PGGB soon ... just so we're in training for the Sainting ....

*returns with some nice new clean buckets for the which, if prove as good as Kes' usual batches, should dissolve the bottom of the buckets*
So, we'll just have to drink them quicker this time

*returns*

I couldn't find the broo... oh, I see you found them, GB!

*looks around*

I see the comfy armchairs are still here - good! We'll be needing them if I know the s right!

Stainless stell bucketrs! Great ...They should last at least 15 minutes

*bounces up and down on a comfy armchair*

*mixes a pilot batch of PGGB*

I volunteer to sample it!

*brave, marture-like look on face*

I volunteer to catch Titania if she falls!



*fills the fridge with for Saints Clelba and Hezher, not forgetting Archangel Dragonfly to tempt her away from all thathomew*rk...*

Hiya Clelba & Marjin!

You can help me pad these walls with something soft.

Don't want any learner this time do we?

** remembers his first carefull minutes of flying **

Good idea, I'll start with a layer of marshmallow.

We can always eat it afterwards.
