So, from the garage to the treehouse. I don't usually get up that far but I'm sure someone will give me a hand.
We could chat about holidays. I heard Maxine talking about sunny holiday climes. At least I assume she was as I only caught a snatch of what she was saying; the words "very hot" and "being roasted" must have been holiday reminiscences.

Re: Lucky 7's - Bigger is better!
Maxine has already boasted about her hot memories in the garage, and I have to say I quite like the idea of returning to it when the weather is cold. But for now we should all help MarkW to raise himself up into the tree house, after all its only right to lend a helping hand to our friendsMarkW wrote:So, from the garage to the treehouse.

Yes indeed bitter sweet memories of when we toasted goodbye to the garage and turned to pastures new. I like rubyred am also happy to give a hand to the lovely MarkW (good to see you back and posting again MW)rubyred wrote:Maxine has already boasted about her hot memories in the garage, and I have to say I quite like the idea of returning to it when the weather is cold.

Our trips between the garage and the treehouse can be rotated, the old place had to be demolished unfortunately, but MarkW is handy with his tools perhaps he could build us a new one, but for now I'm happy hunting for conkersMaxine wrote:Yes indeed bitter sweet memories of when we toasted goodbye to the garage and turned to pastures new.

If MarkW gets his tools out and gets on with the job we could all be treated to a new garage, JiveLad could supply the nuts and bolts, and I am sure they could knock something up in no timeJay Jay wrote:Our trips between the garage and the treehouse can be rotated, the old place had to be demolished unfortunately, but MarkW is handy with his tools perhaps he could build us a new one, but for now I'm happy hunting for conkers

Isn't JL's contribution usually organic cream, only problem is last time I rubbed it on my skin, my skin reacted, I must be allergic to it, might have to stick to my normal brandrubyred wrote:If MarkW gets his tools out and gets on with the job we could all be treated to a new garage, JiveLad could supply the nuts and bolts, and I am sure they could knock something up in no time![]()

Oh dear. It sounds like you've been using it too often. I recommend cutting down to just two applications a day (morning and night). At lunchtime take an oral supplement of extract-of-plums, then finish each day with a bath in treacle.

It does sound like time to go nuclear and try a big bang approach. Softly softly has it's place but you're crying out for something harder.

I think we should clean up our act on here, things are getting harder and harder and things are getting quite mucky at the momentMarkW wrote:It does sound like time to go nuclear and try a big bang approach. Softly softly has it's place but you're crying out for something harder.

GOOD GRIEF! I almost crashed my Biplane today when I heard everyone proclaiming their innocence. Well, let me say this for the record; I had hardly been here two minutes when one member proposed a new game named 'Dirty Bubble'. I need say no more!

It was just one blip Bubble I am sure you are a very clean, angelic and spankingly clean living Bubble, but there is time yet for JL and MarkW to start their corruption processes..........Bubble wrote:GOOD GRIEF!

I think it might be politer to send Bubble a PM on this matter but I do think she is female, as I am sure I met her at Breeze last year.

There was a feature on a phenomenon called the South Sea bubble which I read about in my favourite paper, the Tripoli Clarionand Advertiser.
That doesn't really get us any further though. And the tide is rising, so with just a shout of "weigh anchor" to the customs official who nearly confiscated JL's leopard print posing pouch it is time to embark.
