soop ....tried the shed...no sign. There was a Fancy Dress party in the village hall on Sunday night...people dressed as Soldiers, Sailors, RSPCA men and even Tennis players...... you don't think nellie's head has been turned do you... grin

soop Tue 26-Jun-12 14:30:57

Pete...you rascal! Please find naughty nellie for me. I'm beginning to fret that she may be locked in the shed. grin

Pete Tue 26-Jun-12 14:28:36

soop I think gramps was corrupted a good while ago smile ....I, on the other hand, am pure in mind and body.....although another visit to nellie's younger sisters ( Lilly's ) back room may change that... grin

soop Tue 26-Jun-12 14:08:24

...I meant - withdrawal symtoms.hmm

jeni Tue 26-Jun-12 13:47:21

They're getting almost as bad as us!

soop Tue 26-Jun-12 12:36:24

Naughty nellie WHERE ARE YOU? I'm getting nellie withdrawel symptoms. grin

soop Mon 25-Jun-12 13:48:06

Gramps and Pete would I be correct in thinking that naughty nellie has corrupted you? You are both such fun...just what nell needs...grin

gramps Mon 25-Jun-12 09:20:02

Ohj dear, I never trust small people with sticky fingers!
I hope he turned off the current, or he may have a shocking experience!!

Pete Mon 25-Jun-12 00:15:23

gramps No need for the Dwarfs to take advice....I witnessed Happy getting a good hand full of current buns.....although Dopey put him up to it...(on his shoulders)...grin l

Snow White a common barmaid - never!
She is most likely in a posh Bistro somewhere in Essex or Middlesex. She considered herself above those with whom she lived. The Dwarfs cared for her, as we all know,but are now considering taking advice on discrimination of size as the smaller folk could not reach her delightfully sticky , world famous currant buns.
They are only surpassed by her fantastic waffles. One of which I'm just finishing off!
She attended classes for pancake making, but they were a flop!

Pete, beware of her coffee - it comes out all frothy!

nelliedeane Sun 24-Jun-12 14:05:26

She kept saying she had a bun in the oven,whenever they asked....grin

soop Sun 24-Jun-12 14:01:25

Could not resist popping in for my daily giggle fix grin nellie gramps Pete I just love your cheery banter. Back to paint Pepper. Take care of each other wink

Pete Sun 24-Jun-12 12:54:59

Think Lil sacked her, nellie.....seems her buns were proving too popular and a lot of the 'gentlemen' were getting sticky fingers..... grin

nelliedeane Sun 24-Jun-12 07:38:14

Have you been to Lils lately Gramps snow white is the new barmaid I have heard that a few of the 'clientele' have been remarking on the size of her buns....

gramps Sun 24-Jun-12 07:32:44

Re, Nelly in shed , sharing her currant buns with Pete and Gramps!

gramps Sun 24-Jun-12 07:26:35

Preferably both. I love her currant buns!

gramps Sun 24-Jun-12 07:24:28

I feel really sorry for Snow-white. Poor kid, She was upset and feeling Grumpy at the time - then having been scolded, left the party feeling Dopey. This cheered her up, and off she went feeling Happy!
Next morning, she got a cold,so had to stay home feeling Sneazy!
Last saw her off to see Doc!

I don't think she is a "goodtime" girl, as she's always late!!

soop Sat 23-Jun-12 11:12:53

nellie...keep it up! The laughter, I mean blush I'm off to tackle Pepper's pic. smile

I have been in the rhubarb trying to find out where the mysterious rustling was coming from,and that's when I saw the gnomes all getting ready to go out,there was much banter and kit inspection they where on a mission to gate crash your party grumpy was the ring leader they had sourced a dustpan with the brush joined to the handle and hi jacked it grumpy sat aside the brush and the 6others sat in the dustpan and they flew off in to the night....I thought there was a strong resemblance between grumpy and Jeremy clarkson,dopey looked very much like RIchard Hammond, and sleepy likes James May.....like I said I was feeling happy because I had discovered their plan.....

To much information nellie envy

Anagram Fri 22-Jun-12 23:08:52

jeni Fri 22-Jun-12 22:59:30

Pete Fri 22-Jun-12 22:57:55
