*Ook busses tables and carries newspapers out to the recycle box*
*Pierrot looks bored*
*cleaning bot leaves broom closet and cleans floor and counter*
*Lil flushes IIEM and changes filter*

I wonder if I can turn the transponder off...

Well here we are ramping up for the weekend, your local coffeehouse, the place for the best in coffee and tea as well as a lovely range of munchies.

Will anyone ever beat Ook at Scrabble?

Newcomers welcome to the cafe. If no caretakers seem to be about, just tell the IIEM what you want to order, and it shall appear.

*races in at a blistering pace, leaps victoriously onto couch, raising arms in air*
First to the Forum! Muahahahah
*trails off into peal of crazed laughter*

Hah.
There.
First.

FTTF Special for Odradek -------> s}~{

*is feeling relieved that she got the URL right from the previous thread to here*

No trouble at all finding the place, no...mm. Thank you.
*seats herself on couch, quite erect,legs crossed primly at ankles, looking smug*

Hey all, it's a tttf (third) finish for Ioreth. Did I ever get that mocha? Dunno. I'll take it/another, depending.

mocha for Ioreth -------> g(~)

And I'm turning in now. This forum will see me again in about 7 hours. Goonight ladies, goonight sweet ladies...

See y'all tomorrow!
*leaves via back door, taking short cut back to Atelier*

*sings, as if Lil were named Irene.*
Good night, A L... Good night AL. Good night, AL, good night, AL, I'll see you in my dreams.

Oh my gosh! I just remembered the weirdest thing. You'll have to see this tomorrow, Lil, but I had a dream last night where I was in Florida by some lake and then I was like "hey lil lives right there!" and I walked over and there was this small white cottage. So I say "hi, I'm 'Ioreth"!" You weren't very happy to see me. But I decided to impose on you and I had to stay at your house for the night. So I did... then I woke up.

Wow was that weird.

'Night, Lil. Take care...

*sings back at Loreth*

"Shiiine on you craaaazy Loorrreth..."

Ah. Got that out of my system.

Never dream myself, but perhaps l should leave before l doze off, and actually sleep in a bed tonight..it can't be setting a good precedent for the cafe to have a resident drifter crashing here nightly...

Mmph. RBB for me, please, llEM, to go.
Ah.
See you all later...hopefully not in my dreams...l can't afford another spell of therapy if l ever want to get to Nepal...

*waves g'night to Ook, Pierrot and Loreth; strokes Digi's head as she leaves, though he has been ignoring her lately, and is gone*



*

*walks in, looks for pierrot*
IIEM please get me a raspberry tea, lots of honey.

*Wonders is pierrot would be willing to come down and sing for a while*
How is everyone this evening...err morning?

2 AM, whenever that is. Quite good, but should be getting to bed soonish.

g'night all

*sleepily mentions that her name starts with an i*

no one here except us aminals, it seems.
atleast Pierrot will keep me company for a while.

*pulls out guitar out of backback, starts playing*
*Pierrot starts singing happly*
ahh..there's nothing like the sound of the guitar and a sax! thanks Pierrot.

*shyly looks around and thinks that maybe it's a good thing that no one else is here this late*

Mornin all'!

Coffee please, IIEM.

Waz'up?

Not much happening it seems...

*sits all alone in corner waiting for someone, anyone, to show up*

*looks in, sees only Snata is awake*

Hi Snata, save a seat for me, I'll be back here in 20 minutes.

*runs out again*

Ah, I see everyone is asleep now.

IIEM, one coffee please.

*searches counter for apple spice doughnut, gives shriek of delight on finding one. Sits cown on couch with crossword puzzle book*

Ook, why don't you join me. You could pick up some more scrabble words.

*Ook* Ieek

Yes I know you've never been beaten but you never know.

Good morning y'all!
*carries in fresh box of fresh donuts and a couple of loaves of bread*

Poor old Ioreth, a victim of sansserif fonts. Take heed, her name starts with an I, not an L.

*puts out donuts on green compote dish*

As for the dream, I do live in a small white house and I am rather a recluse, but I hope I would NEVER have such bad manners as to make you feel less than welcome ... unless you stayed a second night

I have a treat -- I brought a few loaves of cinnamon swirl raisin bread. Toast with yer tea and coffee, anyone?

Hi Lil, how are you doing. Yes, I would like to try the raisin bread.
Never had it with cinnamon.

As for the mug, I found a few pictures. On the internet. It should look something like this one,

but the part below the bannister should be coloured like this one

http://zuma.lib.utk.edu/lights/maine8.html

Would that be ok?

*pops bread into toaster*
Gotcha. No problem with the colouring.

I think I'll have some toast myself. Do you want butter or marg on that? We used to have a member of staff just for toast making, but I only saw him turn up for a little while about a month ago now.

Oh, hello, Ook. Some breakfast? Oh, you want toast too?
Pierrot: "Me too! Me too! Me too! Me too!"
