I have a spare Black cat (Oh heck that sounds terrible) lol but I have asked both my cats if they would like to go for a little ride ! and they both said Mieow which is "yes" in cat language........I have promised them a treat later grin ...........sooooooo..... dust off your brooms, get your cauldron bubbling and let's go cast some witchy spells hee hee hee hee..... grin

Are we going to spring Biker or bail her?

Jacey Mon 31-Oct-11 21:18:13

Don't be too sure about that Notso ...I saw you sipping my brew!! grin

Beware of that 13th ingrediant!! hee!! hee!!

Notsogrand Mon 31-Oct-11 21:27:03

Let's spring her Annobel. What can we disguise her as? If we stuck a tyre valve in the middle of her forehead and got her to act all floppy, we could say she was just a blow-up witch that we'd let down.

I thought that brew was Innocent (geddit?) Jacey ! What the blazes was the 13th ingredient?

Annobel Mon 31-Oct-11 21:37:14

That pumpkin in the exhaust should've stopped the cop car by now. We can form an arrowhead on our broomsticks and take Biker's one with us. Then we can swoop down on the car and grab her. Then she can shoot off and the police are going to think they've been dreaming. Who's going to believe them that they caught a real witch? They'll keep stum about it if they don't want to be a laughing stock grin.

Oh bother! Do you mean to say the one I caught was the wrong one! jacey that brew #¥%€ !!

Pendle Hill! One of the scenes of my misspend youth in my hiking cycling YHA days.

I'll fly over from Oz on my hoover (well, you don't expect a basic broom to make it all that way, do you?)

I think you've all just written a Gransnet Halloween story to present to Maggie Smith - copyright is going to be a nightmare

Notsogrand Mon 31-Oct-11 22:11:08

I've heard that the centrifugal bit of a Dyson helps you to cross time zones without even having to alter your watch Joan. Make sure you hang a left at the Isle of Wight though.

Zooming in...............where's the cauldron?? I've bought MORE wine wine,
garlic, onions and frogs to add to the brew!

Zooming off.............it's a long way home. Whooooooo..........grin

Annobel Mon 31-Oct-11 22:15:33

Better get an move on Joan. Less than two hours till All Saints come marching in! Hey! it's that day already in Oz, innit?

jingle Mon 31-Oct-11 22:16:20

Totally bananas! The lot of 'em! shock

Annobel Mon 31-Oct-11 22:19:45

Bananas no. Pumpkins yes. About to turn into one.

Annika Mon 31-Oct-11 22:23:23

oooooooooppppppppppps sorry I think I got lost I have only just caught up with you lot think I had one too many wine wine wine wine my poor black cat fell off my broomstick half way, had to double back and get her and then I had to explain to a passing constable why I was trying to get the cat to cling on to my broomstick. It was then he breatherlised me !
Any way to cut a long story short I have got three points on my licence but if we have a good time tonight it will be worth it. confused
By the way looking forward to 5th of November hope we will be having fireworks ( will keep the cat indoors for that )

Jacey Mon 31-Oct-11 22:47:19

Annika Mon 31-Oct-11 22:48:48

Annobel Mon 31-Oct-11 22:51:30

Annika, you ride a broomstick in that state and it won't just be points on your licence. Jacey, does that stuff show up on a breathalyser? hmm

Notsogrand Mon 31-Oct-11 22:59:36

Is the 13th ingredient a pinch of Resolve Jacey? wink

Annika Mon 31-Oct-11 23:02:47

Annoble I think you are right I am begining to regret that last bottle glass of wine.

Jacey Mon 31-Oct-11 23:03:06

Nooooooo!! smile

Annobel Mon 31-Oct-11 23:23:32

Better get off now or I'll fall asleep on the broomstick. Halloween's nearly over. Has Bagitha gone to spring Biker? G'night girls.

Jacey Mon 31-Oct-11 23:28:06

It's OK Annobel ...that's the special 13th ingredient in my brew ...everyone will be safe tonight smile

Annika Mon 31-Oct-11 23:32:07
