WIBU to want this?

Mulled wine ..... I hear Christmas creeping in ..... how about a mince pie?

I give in What does WIBU mean?

= Would It Be Unreasonable ???

Now that's a windup, Nanban. We aren't doing the C word here in this warm retreat!

Just popping in to leave you some pancakes, bacon and maple syrup and a percolater full of fresh coffee. I'm off shopping with my girlies. Look out NEXT - I have vouchers! [ grin]

Oh wow, wonderful breakfast - yum!
Come and get it while it's here!

If you're too late, I will be busy - in spite of the snow, this marvellous inn is doing a bring and buy sale....what weird things will GN produce?
And will anyone get here to buy?

Well, they did advertise for white elephants…..for the sale….but I didn’t expect this one – it isn’t very big but it pushed its way in and is trumpeting in the kitchen….oh dear.
Aawww, it’s only a baby.

(Can we sell this? Who brought it? )
The staff are trying to corral it and take it to the old stables….then what?

I have offered to fetch the chef, he is stuck in a snowdrift, so....see you in a bit.

The chef?? You're not going to cook that poor baby elephant, surely?

Elephant burgers?

No! The chef has NO connection with the elephant.
(Well, he better not get any ideas.)

We just want some food for lunch cooked round here. Something warming. (You're too late for when's breakfast.)
I'm taking off my wellies, they are cold.

Ana, jeni are you going to bring something for the bring and buy this aft?
No more elephants, we can't cope. - where is it, anyway?

I think someone may have...er...liberated it!
Possibly a well-wisher...

Oh dear. Anyone seen an elephant? Just a small one......

Or - Ana - did you mean 'liberated' in the sense of 'nicked it'?

No - never thought of that! Perhaps jeni had a real craving for elephant-burgers....

Fancy a jumbo burger!
I'm bringing a bagful of good wishes and a magic pill for all dieters that instantly takes 3stone off!

You bring that elephant back, jeni!

Wonderful brings, though....stick them on that table in the big room.
And come and have a cuppa.

You don't really want an elephant in the room do you?

Not this one, no.......but virtual rooms are elastic - bring it back!

Here you are then! I can't stand a blank white canvas so I've decorated it with a mural of second seven crossing!

That's interesting! (But what is it?)
- I thought it was going to be like Elmer.
(You didn't do the other side.)

I knew you'd got it.

Well I like trumpeting my successes and I thought I could learn from Nellie!

- have you packed your trunk then?

BTW - try this: elephantparade.com/elephants

And thereby hangs a tail!

...........a long, sad, tale?

However, this bring-and-buy isn't getting very far. Stock wanted!

How about we auction the elephant? Or raffle it?
