Now...lets see...push this button...write something here...and Bob's yer auntie!

Amazing!
Does it have anything to do with turtles?

*sneaks in and curls up in the corner and goes to sleep*

Totally turtles Hati dudette! I've been watching too much of my son's 'Finding Nemo' DVD!

*Snatches Pierce's pillow-shaped-like-a-pair-of-ladies-wotsits and places it under the sleeping Hypatia's head*

*enter bedraggled red-faced figure looking with a bold in da doze*

'ullo you too. Any ginger brandy about?

*Searches behind the bar for some buchu brandy to drink his tablets down with...*



Buchu = herb used to make medicinal brandy taste awful so you won't enjoy drinking it too much and make a habit out of it...

that has to be an unnatural and cruel punishment by any standard

Well done Gwennie ... love the porpoises - can we have tortoises next month, I can keep up with them

Oh poor WR - I think the ... Buchu ... got tipped down the drain when the firemen were here ... Just don't breathe too hard ... you wouldn't want a round the bar with a cold

searching for an antiseptic wipe ...

the fumes from the drain would fix any cold...

Is there any coffee in this place? If so I'll have two or three pots.

So, has everyone chosen a Halloween costume yet? I assume Pandora will be throwing a party as usual.

*figure appears completely cured of cold using copious amounts of buchu brandy diluted with an infusion of indigenous herb...*

Man! I feel good - I knew that I would now...

I always thought herbs were weeds

Just listening to Stairway to Heaven - forgotten how long it went on for - DJ must have gone to the lads room

Hyp - you best go to a bar - I don't thinkg anyone is thinking of soberism at present ... hunts around for bowl ... in search of much needed ...

in this bar there is never longer to the next than pandora can throw a party

I've got a black plastic bin liner that WR could wear over his head. It will double up as containment for his in der dose germs and as a Halloween cossie!

This place is rubbing off on me in RL - I'm drinking whole pots of fresh in the morning and then hitting in the evening (it takes the sting out of having to eat my own cooking!).

You would think that one would counteract the other...


They don't y'know...

counteracting your cooking probably needs something a little stronger

*leaves in search of a coffee bar*

... calls after Hypatia: "Don't forget to bring back some sp. rec. brownies - especially if there's going to be a party!"

please someone put in my bowl - I know it's a pain having a around that can't do it for herself

maybe we ought to install some of those semi automatic troughs like what they have in cowsheds

might come in handy not only for the now that i think of it

a trough! a cow trough! for me! ... when have I ever behaved like a cow?

Couldn't I have something a little more civilised - like a water dispenser/drinks machine as they have in offices - I could push a button with my paw & new clean bowl falls down & is then filled with whatever I choose from some other buttons (all floor level of course )

I do agree though a cow/horse trough could be useful for some others ... I mention no names

gasping for a drink while discussions go on

sure you can have some sort of automatic dispenser with floor level buttons, only if memory serves there is a lot more in a trough than can be in one of them office machines, see?

::fills a dozen bowls with assorted s::

Has anybody ever tried filling up their office water cooler with VODKA?
