*eats a profiterole absent-mindedly*
My birthday is August the sixth, so yes I am a Leo . (but I prefer s and I don't really believe in astrology)
You can view my feet (live! uncensored! etc) at [url removed by moderator]- if the moderators nab that link then go to my user page, which has a link.
*looks on in interest* profiteroles? a Picasso? I never realised I was so valued. I'm honoured

As an aside to Mr. Munchkin - five foot six is plenty tall for me!
I've had 'em tall, had 'em small, and found it's the stature of the man inside that counts most ...

*discreetly allows 1 profiterole to roll in direction of auctioneer*
Oh, mercy me! Amy, I think one of my profiteroles may have inadvertantly rolled right next to your gavel. You might as well eat it, rather than heave it all the way back over here.
*begins preparation for 1 Peregrin, mounted in display case, possibly stuffed - starts dialling V&A*

*munch, munch*
So profiteroles actually roll, do they?
I think I need to see that again since I appear to be in the middle of an indecisiveness attack.

*pauses for thought, eyeing auctioneer with a degree of suspicion, before venturing a second, possibly final, profiterole*
Amy, perhaps that second profiterole that has fortuitously rolled next to your gavel will give you enough energy to clear your thought processes.
*disappears for nice, long lunch break*

Honey, I have nothing against short men, we had fun while it lasted, only with me being nigh on 6' tall, it can look a bit silly!! And thats not why i auctioned him!

*thinks "Gosh, Amy is right. Possible weekly meeting with head honchos?". Wonders if Munchkin will accidentally get auctioned, and thinks "good on you, Lil" for snapping up a bargain *

*sits at the back, munching profiteroles and perusing the catalogue, thinking that it is interesting that most of the bids begin with P: Picasso, profiteroles, pencils....*

HErrrmmm... August sixth... well, I was going to add Pierre, my elephant from the Elephant Trek to the bid... but... Peregrin likes dogs more than cats. How unfortunate. I'm out.

I think someone should check to make sure Peregrin is not the subject of an outstanding Hire Purchase agreement.
Any chance of, er, a test drive?

*Perks up at mention of his name. However upon realising that the general jist, other than a pleasing comment on his height, follows along the lines of a certain Edinburgh gentleman trying to sell him, develops a look of panic. I'd never get as much as the multi talented Peregrin, sadly not being available for political corruption*

I have the tax forms and owner's license here. I recently passed my MOT with flying colours, and I can assure you that the paint job is the original and I'm not two half people bolted together or anything dodgy like that.
Oh and although I like s, that doesn't mean I don't like s... or even when it comes to it.
