Awww AGA you noticed!
So kind of you, yes I try to make Christmas special for my little llamas, as you know they mean the world to me ❤️❤️
But I might be slightly mad .. I don’t really know

brook2704 Sun 24-Dec-23 12:52:16

Aww Laura they wouldn’t do that to me … would they?

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 13:31:57

You know they love you Brook. Just keep singing to them
🎶 Allellama, Allellama🎶
Keeps them calm.

Will do Laura good idea
What’s on tonight at the Argy? If I can get them settled down early I’ll come along
Any chance we can get the chocolate fountain on the go again ?

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 15:43:41

Chocolate fountain, yey, great idea.
If George Clooney falls in this year you can clean him up. I have my eye on Ryan Gosling, silly goose that I am.
Tonight’s theme will be Lords and Ladies in honour of the Lemons who seem to have embarked on yet another Christmas cruise.
I shall come as the Duchess Potato.
I will arrive in the Dreyman’s cart decorated with the Argy insignia, two llamas depicted on a bouncy castle downing poteen.

I will come as Lady Tania Hide. I will arrange a whip round for everyone.

Doodle Sun 24-Dec-23 18:22:58

I will come as Lady Legless (which is what I’ll be after two pints of poteen) and will be accompanied by Lord Longjumper one of the the most senior of the 10 Lords a Leaping.
We will arrive in his gold plated coach with outriders and footmen.
Please make sure the best seats at the bar are reserved for us an no llama poo on the red carpet please.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 18:28:29

I like your style Lady Tania Hide.
I seem to be smashed already.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 18:32:02

Do feel free to share the other nine lords Doodle.
Llama poo on the red carpet indeed, how very dare you

Doodle Sun 24-Dec-23 18:42:43

You can have Lord Lucan if you can find him. And Lord Lumberjack. He’s the tall guy in the corner who keeps shouting “Timber” every time he downs a pint. Or there’s Lord Sprout of Brussels, but I wouldn’t if I were you 🤢

May Hem has got herself attached to Lord Limpet. And Dyna has met her match with Lord Gelatine. 💥

AGAA4 Sun 24-Dec-23 18:50:21

Got lumbered with Jack last year. Looking for the Lord of the Rings. Want to get engaged again.

Doodle Sun 24-Dec-23 19:16:06

Actually I think I meant Lord Gelignite not his rather wobbly cousins Gelatine.
Lord of the Rings. You after that chap who runs the hoop la stall at the fairground again Laura. I’d have thought you’d learnt your lesson after he got you hooked last time.

ixion Sun 24-Dec-23 19:17:29

I'm being escorted by the Master of the Rolls, Lord Cunardly.
Rolls down hill and cunardly get up again.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:25:00

I am being escorted by my French brother in law the Dauphin Oise. The House of Potato must be represented at this time of year or the family will get a roasting.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:27:57

Don’t allow those underdressed Potatoes in jackets to enter, common as muck, eyes everywhere.

brook2704 Sun 24-Dec-23 19:29:21

Oooh I’m ready, I’m Lady Bunting of Tittington this evening

brook2704 Sun 24-Dec-23 19:32:22

I’m holding my potato laura

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:34:27

There is rumour that King Edward may make an appearance accompanied by Marie Spiper.

Doodle Sun 24-Dec-23 19:44:53

No, not that hussy. Queen Charlotte will not be amused.
I think some of the Jersey Royals are coming too.

Doodle Sun 24-Dec-23 19:47:18

Make sure the Essential potatoes don’t get through the door, they get mashed on only one drink.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:50:11

Lady Bunting of Tittington, the mind boggles. What, no photo?

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:51:15

Are the Essential Potatoes related to the essential cushion?

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:53:09

Just make sure we’re not raided by the peelers tonight.

LauraNorderr Sun 24-Dec-23 19:55:00

Don’t worry about the potatoes that get mashed, we’ll turn them in to vodka
