I'm willing to share three out of those four. (Or 4 out of those 5 if you include the milk).

Ooooh, Battenburg!! Ta! Very Happy

I also have a lab project underway, I have just collected some seeds from the local flora - some odd looking large, tall plants. Strange thing is, I thought they were further away last time I was here, also there seemed to be a lot of dead animals near them. Guess they must be poisonous.

*looks over to plants in distance* Huh? I don't remember them being so close?!! *shrugs* Oh well, off to the lab!

Yes, I have trouble sharing my books too. One never knows if they'll return dog-eared.... Wink

And since today happens to be my birthday (no, really, it is!), I'll add a birthday cake to the snack table, and party hats for all. Laughing

Herr Döktor Fri Dec 05, 2008 10:25 pm

Well, Happy Birthday, Lady P!

Pity it had to be on one of BG's 'down' days...

We'll just have to crack the champers here!

Allow me to contribute to your natal festivities by presenting you with these party squeakers, with a bit of luck we should be able to make ourselves heard in the next forum.. Smile

If the BG forum remains offline (knock-on-wood) by, say, Sunday, will we have a go at trying to cobble together the original mailing list?

Oh, and,

Happy Birthday, Ms. Penelope!!

Lady Penelope Fri Dec 05, 2008 11:02 pm

You and me both. I even know the perfect thing to make for mine and no address to send it off!

Happy birthday Lady P. I realize having BG go down again is not a wonderful present, but as long as we remember how good Queen V would handle it I'm certain you and the 'collective we' will do just fine. markf

Sorry, a bit silly there. Beg pardon? No, that's just some... medicine I have to put into my Earl Grey. Keeps down the Bergamot Ergot, don't you know.

Well, time to go out to the lab, and... tinker. Steam launch project is ongoing.

Cheers!

Er... is that some reference to "Make them walk the plank!" "But Cap'n, we don't have a plank." "Aghright then, what do we have?" "Er, we have a nice, comfy sofa". "Agghright then, tie them to the nice, comfy sofa!"

HAC Sat Dec 06, 2008 1:25 am

Well, looks like we might be here for a bit, so I'll lay on supper vittles..

Problems at the fort? - Page 2 Turkey

Even did a pie (apple) for dessert..

Of course port and cigars (or nuts) for the gents, and sherry for the ladies, in the drawing room, afterwards..

Most Happy Birthday to you Lady Penelope!

Mine was on Monday and though BG was operational I spent the day flying to North Carolina way too early in the morning and working until 11:00 PM. Such is life!

I don't feel 40...

Miss Mary, the Comfy Chair was from the Monty Python "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!" sketch. One of the all-time greats.

Cheers!
