Hello everyone.. come in and take a lovely, comfy seat which I hasten to add - you wont be sat in for long because Im starting belly dancing classes with a free glass of?? ?? ?? or mint tea complete with free supper of goat stew .....
Nothing but smiles, laughter and plenty of ridiculously hilarious shenanigans....
Yeahhhhhh ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ...
Aldom I’ll phone a friend. Preferably the friend who let me take the cutting.
Aldom. I have experimented with propagation this summer and have successfully managed to get four rose cuttings to root. I always thought it would be a job best left to the professionals but it was really easy. I follow Anya the Garden Fairy on Instagram who has a beautiful garden and is very ‘into’ plants for free. Not sure where I am going to put all these new plants though.?
Morning all! Greetings from both of us, I am awake and wiping Turkish delight powder off my shoulders (don't ask), my dancing belly is still asleep, I can tell because it is snoring
Thanks Laura. Gutted that I missed the truncheons and I know you said "don't ask" but Turkish delight powder on your shoulders!!!
Ooops Turkish delight confusion is to HPQ.

Yes.... i am right there next to you with quizzical expression TURKISH DELIGHT POWDER ON YOUR SHOULDERS
Hmmmmm, my mind is boggling so much I am unbalanced !!!!!
Well, I have ventured into town to the stall that sells beautiful belly dance costume, the 1 I wore yesterday caught fire on the ornate candles that decorated the Arabian gazibo
I have purchased a beautiful red and gold affair with a few of the donated coins that the neighbours threw over the wall lastnight .... must have thought we were some sort of a street act !!!! Anyway, I have sewn the coins on string and they drape around my forehead.... ohhhhh im all ready for the swishing and swaying of hips ... 2pm sharp...... everyone must wear colourful attire...
Ohhhh and i also purchased fabulous miniature Turkish Delight in bite size pieces so there is 1 for allllll of us.....
I've decided on deep purple and bright yellow and am really going to go for colour coordination by painting finger and toe nails in the same alternative colours; too much?
I've raided our small change jar and made a belt for my midriff. Been practising and it makes quite a nice jingle jangle sound, so I'm rather pleased with myself.
Hmm Turkish Delight. Bite size pieces is a good idea Serendipity and may help HPQ avoid further powder on her shoulders.
Well by happy coincidence I am going out to lunch with friends today....to a Turkish restaurant ?. I may have to wear a disguise in case anyone recognises me from the TikTok videos which Smileless posted online in the early hours of the morning. I shall be in my usual disguise of a respectable old woman.
Well if I'd known where you were lunching today HPQ I wouldn't have posted until this afternoon. You should be proud, your hip movements were pretty impressive. So about this respectable old woman disguise, are you thinking along the lines of Mrs. Doubtfire?
Oh now THAT was some disguise Smileless and raiding your small change jar, you have formed a masterpiece of jingle jangle belt.. ohhh I think this calls for another leak to the press, we are all going to such a great deal of effort ( the purple and yellow sounds beyond PERFECT ) that I think it is worthy of front page spread..... but then again whats all this about TikTok videos posted online from lastnight!!!!!! At this rate we will become known worldwide !!!! I am not too sure how I feel about that, i think I may have to join you HPQ in disguise...
Eeeeeeeek 
Well you know the old saying about not hiding one's light under a bushel Serendipity so why not extend that to our dancing? The TikTok videos were just a pre cursor to the National's, and I was saving this until later, when we were all together with a
to toast HPQ the video of her dancing has received rave reviews.

Ahhhh well put like that YEAHHHHHH bring it on....... so do you think were heading for the national's ????? Wowwww..
Heavens above we will travel to all countries.... wowwww.
The shindig starts in half an hour ... lets all get our hips swishing and swaying ... an now I am in fullll favour of it all being on TikTok... whoaaaaa were all going to be famous ......
Now where is that vino to celebrate ? ? ? ?
That's what I'm hearing, the Nationals are ready and waiting.
Hope I'll be ready for 2.00 pm, trying to do this belt up without chipping my nail varnish which took ages to do.
Nothing but nothing can stop us now.
I have squeezed into my beautiful new attire and all ready. I hope we get a good turn out... i hope your nails are done to perfection and ready to be displayed in all their finery along with countless hips swishing their way around the Arabian gazibo ... my new footwear curls up at the toes so I am hoping to goodness my balance isnt affected because what with curled up pinkies and endless glasses of vino! Heck! I dread to think what will be captured on that phone and sent with haste to TikTok !!!! I just hope I dont end up head first in the goat stew !!!! Ohhhhh pleeeease !
Well I know the belt looks good but it's still moving 5 minutes after I've stopped. Or is it my belly that's still moving. Could be both I suppose.
Glad you like the nails Serendipity. I love your shoes BTW, got a really good shot of them on video on the one occasion you were actually standing still, and that's because you were slurping
.
I am back, managed to get back behind enemy lines without being rumbled. Full of tzaziki and flat bread. I did take one for the GN team though when it came to the souvlaki. I had a square of it for each and every one of you. Will forward my dental bill later.
Good Afternoon all. There seems to be rather a lot of bellybonkers dancing and not too much breakfasting in this new venue, Serendip; but suppose if you have to be the hostess with the mostest and be out a lot buying up supplies of Turkish delight and fairy dust, not to mention exotic costumes, you just can't be everywhere and menus will be neglected.
Anyone on duty to do a nice all day brekkie? That would be wonderful. I don't want beans, (especially at the prices they are now), don't want black pudding, and only one sausage and bacon rasher please; but two eggs would be wonderful....and a fried slice. See, I'm not at all hard to please.
Is the idea to reduce the bellies from doing their own thing, and return them to a size that can enjoy all day breakfasts with a side order of Turkish delight, without any loss of stamina in the dancing Grans? Because that sounds like a plan. As soon as the temperatures drop here a bit, I shall join in with Gusto (assuming he still works there).
I am currently watching wonderful videos with Shakira strutting her stuff, so that I have an idea of the standards being set in this house of ill repute/exclusive location.
Meanwhile, do hope the long-suffering neighbours will continue to throw little gifts over the wall - rather than complaints or insults at the raucous noise, and I just wanted to say that I have fallen in love with Aldom's rose. Too hot to grow them here, but I shall look out some photos of Normandy roses so I can be in with the in crowd chez "AllDay".
Have yourselves a lovely afternoon, peeps, doing just what you want. Stop the chores, there will be more along tomorrow! Pretend you're retired, and vow to enjoy every moment ! ?

Ohhhh heck !!! The belt is moving Smileless!!! All those coins are jingling!! Well nevermind, it will look far more authentic on screen, the more movement the better.
Ohhhh you love my shoes ... ohh THANK YOU, boy oh boy did they cone in for some stick lastnight. Yes, as the saying goes .... the camera never lies, i did mange to briefly stop swinging my hips about but it was a sudden halt as I saw the boys in blue folding into a display of stripping their uniform off before my very eyes... I needed a few glasses of ? to calm me down... heck !!!
Had to have a breather. This belt is heavier and much harder to control than I realised
.
So the disguise worked well then HQP. What do you think about the rave reviews to your hip movements? I can see that your lunch hasn't slowed you down
.
I can do that for you Grandmafrench as long as Serendip doesn't mind me taking over her kitchen of course. I mean I wouldn't want to impose.
Gusto's still here but looking a bit worse for wear. I think it's because he keeps tripping up over Serendip's curly toes, and he seems to have knocked back a fair bit of
.
No complaints that I'm aware of but then again I'm not very good at lip reading and what with all the loud music and laughter I'm not exactly sure what the bloke with the binoculars was saying.
Well the boys are keen. They've put their uniforms back on and look ready for the second act!!!
All day breakfast?
This thread is just so kooky! ?
I need a belly cushion support. My poor belly is aching. It hasn’t had such a battering since I had my last bondage session.
Are there any cocktails tonight? I quite fancy Sex on the beach to finish off my day.
Not sure if we've got enough of the required ingredients left to make you one Doodle. Serendipity has quite a lot of sex on the beach this afternoon.
Would sex on the grass be OK?
