Quote by Elizabeth Bennett
Oh Mr Shakeshaft!
How pleased I can to make you aquaintance (hic). Oh pardon me sir, I have been partaking of the champagne and I do declare that it is having a most unusual effect on me.
I am travelling to Buxton next week for the spa and I do believe that we will be attending one of your fine plays.
Pray tell me how you formulate such interesting ideas.
Miss E. Bennett
Spinster of the Parish

How intriguing!
A playwright, neither of my husbands have been skilled in the â€œartsâ€, Don Shakespeare are you free?

Has the masquerade ball started yet?

Good evening Miss Streep!
No I checked the ballroom and it was empty except for a young itailan woman who seems to have a slight attitude problem.

11 Jun 2004

I tell you what MrsC i think we could perhaps have more fun without the men biggrin

:D :D :D

Good evening Miss Bennett - so only someone playing silly borgias. By the way, how is your brother Gordon these days?

Ms Streep,
You are an imposter! You are not in disguise but are the real Meryl Streep. I know this because in the six words you uttered your accent changed seven times and covered five continents.

Miss Streep I fear you mistake me for another. I have only sisters. I know not, the Gordon of whom you speak.

Thank you for the compliment on my versatility as an actress, Mr McGoohan. Well, as an Englishman with an Scottish-Irish name on location in Wales, you should know all about versatility.

11 Jun 2004

Well my dear ladies, I fear I must bid you a fond farewell.
I have my ablutions to attend to.
Till our paths cross again.....
Fare thee well!
Lizzie
hic hic hic - ooops

11 Jun 2004

I look forward to acting with you again, Miss Bennett.

A playwright, neither of my husbands have been skilled in the â€œartsâ€, Don Shakespeare are you free?Miss Bennett, delighted to make your aquaintance and I DO hope that you enjoy the play (which one are you seeing, if you don't mind my asking?).
Miss Borgia, pleased to meet you too. Errrrrm, I'll pour my own wine if you don't mind. Nothing personal (much!!). Am I free? Well, depends on what you mean by free. Free to chat, certainly (in between checking the printer) but the position (ooo-er, missus) of official muse is already filled (and completely fulfilled). Still, it is nice to pop back in here and catch up with old friends - and I am always happy to make new acquaintances too. Now, could someone pass me a glass of red wine? Err, not you Lucrezia, thank you :shock:
Will - just getting back into the 'swing' of things!

11 Jun 2004

Will my dear fellow how nice to see a familiar face smile

Please pull up a chair and share a drink with me...an influx of newbies in here has left me in the wilderness confused

:?
Oh sod it where's me drink..?

Pray tell what offer you thought I was making?
I have been betrothed since the age of 11! Do I look like the kind of girl to indulge in fornication and erotic liaisons with anyone but my dearly beloved husband?
Answer whilst you can, before the tongue is ripped from your mouth with pincers!

Why do I get the uncomfortable feeling your true colours came through in that last sentence? :?
I think I will go and join Mr FC after all. Hey, Mr FC. There's still some of Fred and Wilma's pink stuff left. Fancy some? :cheers:

11 Jun 2004

Yes - I did hear! I found it alright. Though I am not sure that mixing it with red wine was quite such a good idea!! :shock:
Psst Mr FC - is it just the two of us in here?

No
Ooops! Mr FC - get a few more bottles of wine open. I know there are three open but that's never going to be enough. Get two more open quickly - Jags and Miss Bennett are both here. Five bottles ought to keep Jags quiet for an hour or so. If all else fails just snog her. (Actually, she's a damn fine snog - but don't tell anyone or there'll be a bloody queue!)
Right then - I am finally leaving for Shropshire!!! :bounce: - and yes, I DO know what bloody time it is. Thank you for reminding me evil

Sappho - if you're out there - I'll see you in three hours or less. You remember the course record for the Berkshire to Shropshire run? It could well get smashed into shards tonight!!!
Shropshire here I come :happy: :happy:
Will

Never mind the hour, you go for it Neil!! I would join you myself if I wasn't working (though not from the office before anyone gives me a hard time!!). Never mind, I'll just have to make up for it later (except that I am working tomorrow as well :sad smile

. Sorry - rambling on again.
I have just had a period of enforced sobriety (doctor's, eh? rolleyes

). Okay, so it was only a week but it felt like a month. Why is it that when you are told you that can't have a drink you want on all the more? dunno

Sorry to have been out of circulation for so long. You're right, the tale would be rather long so I won't go into it here. Mind you, it IS good to be back.
See you all later. Actually, Neil. I WILL have one of those virtual beers please. The great thing about virtual beer is that it doesn't interfere with one's ability to concentrate.
Oh dear! First day back and I have already used 'one' in a GFZ post.
I'll get me coat!! redface

See you all later,
Will

12 Jun 2004
