glass don't want to step on your toes, but though it might be a good idea to have a thread for this.

I've got the chariot to get ready, and the horses to sort, after all. Got to be prepared! grin

What time did we say we'd start the party? 8pm? If that's right I will pick up nanachrissy and Carol at 7.30ish. Just had the broomstick out for a bit of a polish and an oil change.

I thought it was 7! If it's 8 the moon will already be up. - I want to watch it rise. I'm leaving at 7.30, and should be there in time.

Better harness the hippogriff. It might take longer than I think.

jeni Sat 10-Mar-12 18:32:31

I'd better start stripping. This could take long time with the arthritis, and having been sewn into my goose grease and brown paper for the winter!

Butternut Sat 10-Mar-12 18:37:39

I've spent considerable time making home made reefers candles to get the party started........!

Oxon70 Sat 10-Mar-12 18:38:17

What does goose grease smell like?

Ambrosius was the father of Merlin. He's buried up there.

King Arthur's on some island somewhere.

jeni Sat 10-Mar-12 19:13:48

Burnham wood is coming here instead of to Dunsinane?

Oxon70 Sat 10-Mar-12 19:16:23

Good. Always wanted a different use for those trees, instead of wasting them.

Notsogrand Sat 10-Mar-12 19:23:05

Private message to jeni. Just humour her. Go with the flow.

Annobel Sat 10-Mar-12 19:28:58

nanachrissy Sat 10-Mar-12 19:30:21

We really need to get going cos those great big Grannynetters are coming after us according to Jinglface.
I don't want to have to get my truncheon out!! It's not a good look when I'm stoned tipsy!

glassortwo Sat 10-Mar-12 19:31:09

Whos collecting me if its biker hope she does not let those inflatables change the route.

glassortwo Sat 10-Mar-12 19:32:16

chrissy I have told jingle to hide behind you as you will know what to do if the Grannynetters arrive. grin

nanachrissy Sat 10-Mar-12 19:39:41

Seems to me Glass that you are very good at pushing me to the front when you know how shy and retiring I am!!

I'm going to run like hell mad!

Annobel Sat 10-Mar-12 19:40:48

Gotcha nanachrissy. Carol, where are you? If you're not there ready and waiting we are off to Stonedhenge grin without you.... Bye!

Annobel Sat 10-Mar-12 19:44:50

Coming in to land, nanchrissy. Mind what you're doing with that truncheon - don't they have asps nowadays?

Annobel Sat 10-Mar-12 19:50:29

Anyone picked up Carol yet? I can nip back for her if she sends out a signal.
