Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Dec 01 - 03:40 AM A thread that links back to itself - how I wish I'd listened in computer lessons.... So what are the planned events for this weekend then? LTS - with memory like preverbial sieve.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Dead Horse Date: 02 Dec 01 - 05:34 AM As I understand it, Liz, the programme begins with a *stew hurling contest* on the Friday afternoon. Followed by *indoor tent pitching & campfire-lighting*. The night will be rounded off with a *hamster-bake*. Spot the snorer during the dark hours. Saturday will kick off with *everybody back to own beds* for the compulsory *kazoo player bashing ritual*. The *Over 80s Nude Leapfrog* is cancelled owing to local statutes, but will be replaced by a talk *How Not To Hypnotise* (please bring own banjo) then its off to the pub to meet & displace the locals. The "Dog & Bucket" has set aside their "quiet room" for a melodeon & shantie session, and the ladies singaround will be in "the-main-bar-downstairs-next-the-gents". Back to the Jonathon King Memorial Scout Hut for *all-in wrestling & vegetarian chilli supper*. Sunday begins with a non-denominational dwile flonking service(again, bring own banjo). Goodbyes, name calling, and recriminations to follow the *camp striking ceremony* tho the more "camp" among you will probably wish to leave beforehand. Survivors descend on the town and set up alternative tea shoppe ensemble. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Gareth Date: 02 Dec 01 - 06:31 AM Wot No Sheep Shearing - I said Shearing - Contest ? Gareth |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Dec 01 - 08:03 AM And it's dwYle flonking... Ta. Can't wait..... LTS Still haven't found Kazoo though have a fair idea where it is.....
|
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: lady penelope Date: 02 Dec 01 - 10:41 AM "dwYle flonking..." as they say in modern parlance, "Eh?". Is it anything to do with (a) banjo's (b) sheep (c) Wales (d) hamsters ? TTFN M'Lady P. ( president of the associationof the terminally bemused ) |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: John Routledge Date: 02 Dec 01 - 11:01 AM Surely this thread should have started Late October/Early November 2002? Cheers Geordie
|
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: GUEST Date: 02 Dec 01 - 12:15 PM Dwile(or Dwyle)Flonking |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Dec 01 - 03:20 PM Lady P - beer. That's all you need to know.... just that it involves blokes, beer and a big stick. LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Susanne (skw) Date: 02 Dec 01 - 09:10 PM Dead Horse - a programme worthy of catspaw! I'll have to think hard about what illness to develop (for my employer) so I can join you all! |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Steve Parkes Date: 03 Dec 01 - 03:17 AM Good news--my harmonica holder (with attachec spring clip) has turned up while turning out cupboards for impending house move, so--and you'll love this!--I can play my banjo and my kazoo at the same time! Steve |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: GUEST,Roger the skiffler Date: 03 Dec 01 - 03:46 AM Steve, I can hardly wait, wetting myself in anticipation....! RtS (who can't walk and play the kazoo at the same time!) |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: John MacKenzie Date: 03 Dec 01 - 04:09 AM Mudcatatonicitis perhaps Suzanne? Failte...Jock |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: MudGuard Date: 03 Dec 01 - 05:07 AM Or a severe stroke of Involentia Gallopans, Susanne (ein Anfall galloppierender Unlust). |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: JudeL Date: 03 Dec 01 - 08:56 AM Beer - yes Blokes - possibly Big stick - ???? Jude (who thinks she must be reading Joe's letter to Matilda) |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: lady penelope Date: 03 Dec 01 - 01:00 PM I've said this before and I'll say it again.....You're all mad! I'm orf to see Bill Bailey TTFN M'Lady P. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Micca Date: 03 Dec 01 - 02:38 PM Penny , hasnt he come home yet???? |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Susanne (skw) Date: 03 Dec 01 - 05:44 PM Thanks for your suggestions, Giok and MudGuard. I'll try them out as soon as I've found a learned article in the Lancet about either. I might also try an attack of my (by now chronic) anglophilia ... Actually, I'd just need a day or two to get there. What really puts me off is still the fare (I'd like to take my car for sleeping) and the exchange rate. It costs us Continentals a fortune to go to Britain these days, let alone eat (and drink) there! Maybe I ought to overcome my fear of flying and check out Luebeck to Stansted - without the car, of course. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: brid widder Date: 03 Dec 01 - 07:24 PM Steve...you could ask Geoff the Duck to run a supplementary workshop on playing Kazoo & Banjo at the same time...he's the expert! I've got the Friday(to travel) and Monday(to recover)off work so I am definitely on for this...and quite excited (I don't get out much)I've got my kazoo ready. Susanne...develop a severe case of Dwileflokinitis...come over without the car...just bring a sleeping Bag |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 03 Dec 01 - 07:28 PM The big stick is to fling the beer soaked cloth (usually pants) at the waiting blokes.... LTS |

Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Steve Parkes Date: 04 Dec 01 - 03:43 AM I'm just trying to adjust to the idea of Liz flinging her beer-soaked pants at us ... |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: JudeL Date: 04 Dec 01 - 04:23 AM AHHhhhh .... Clear as mud or should I say mudcat |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Tone d' F Date: 04 Dec 01 - 05:00 AM Liz flinging her beer-soaked pants at us I usually try to avoid these types of sites I found my comb but can I find the right toilet paper, modern stuff is far too soft and comfortable
|
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: JudeL Date: 04 Dec 01 - 08:17 AM I don't think Liz meant hers |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Steve Parkes Date: 04 Dec 01 - 10:18 AM I'm not coming then! Come on, Liz--whose pants will you be flinging? Steve |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: lady penelope Date: 04 Dec 01 - 02:59 PM Best not to ask, eh? Could be yours. As Bill Bailey shares a house in Hammersmith with his good lady wife and a small menagerie, why would I want him to come to my house, Micca? Mr Bailey was as brilliant as usual, managed to get himself upstaged by a member of the audience at which point I nearly wet my knickers ( possibly not how you would want them for flonking with ) . For a minute I thought Liz might have turned up, as a woman down in the stalls started to squeak in a very familiar fashion. She may have quietly chocked to death after Mr Bailey kept likening her to a chinchilla, who knows? We will now pause for the collective mental shuffling away from the scary lady...............I thank you. TTFN M'Lady P. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Gareth Date: 04 Dec 01 - 07:19 PM Mmmmmh ! Having read the last batches of posts I wonder if a £2 Mill Public liability insurance cover will suffice ?? Gareth |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Dec 01 - 07:44 PM Rest assured, 'twas not I, I was otherwise occupied... and that's all I'm saying! LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Ella who is Sooze Date: 05 Dec 01 - 04:42 AM Hmmm, well, I'm looking forward to a game of dwylie flonking... WHAT A NAME! I'm still positively thinking that I can make it... and hopefully fibula is rooting me out a kazoo. What I want to know is... can I expect to get ANY sleep over the weekend - and do I need to book a day off to recover. Ella |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: MudGuard Date: 05 Dec 01 - 05:09 AM Ella, ANY sleep or ANY sheep ? ;-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Ella who is Sooze Date: 05 Dec 01 - 08:29 AM grrrrr sheep... cheeky! I've plenty of sheep living in Wales, it's sleep I need. Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Mrs.Duck Date: 05 Dec 01 - 12:38 PM Was it Friday Liz?? |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Dead Horse Date: 05 Dec 01 - 03:08 PM 'Taint the public wots a liability. I'ts all them crazy folkies flonking their dwyles and doing unsavoury things to sheep & hamsters. Sleep! Did someone mention sleep? I wouldn't dare, if I was you. Why do you think I've got padlocks & an inflatable moat round the motor home? I shall be adding sound proofing too, as an anti-kazoo precaution. Fortunately, the roof is not flat, or the wife would keep me awake by dancing her Asian-apple stuff on it all night.
|
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Morticia Date: 05 Dec 01 - 07:02 PM You think an inflatable moat will keep us out, do you??? All right lads, who's up for skinny dipping??? |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Susanne (skw) Date: 05 Dec 01 - 07:22 PM Brid widder - interesting suggestion! However, after reading all the subsequent posts I've decided I'm not THAT desperate to join you all ... :-). Think I'll stick to my old and trusted bossallergy. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Dead Horse Date: 05 Dec 01 - 07:24 PM Did I forget to mention the inflatable piranha? |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Dec 01 - 07:41 PM Been a while since I was skinny (about 36 years) but I'll try anything once.... besides, the piranha will be full up before they reach anything important! LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Ella who is Sooze Date: 06 Dec 01 - 04:11 AM liz... you are a scream! funny... could it be a gathering for inflatable creatures? Or inflatable mudcatters. Perhaps for those who can't come we could do life size card board cutouts of them? E |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: mooman Date: 06 Dec 01 - 04:23 AM Oh dear all this dwile flonking, flinging of wet underpants and assorted inflatable funny creatures is making me think twice about all of this..... mooman |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Maxine Date: 06 Dec 01 - 09:13 AM I've just read the thread. It sounds great...pant flinging, skinny dipping, dwile flonking! I reckon I've led a seriously sheltered life these past 34 years - time to make up for lost time - count me in! |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Eric the Viking Date: 06 Dec 01 - 01:26 PM If you like, and I'm able to get there, I'll bring a collection of soggy nappies from some of my kids at school (11-16 year olds) You can throw them at each other! What about this celiedh band and celiedh then? Cheers Eric ps Can nick some dry large adult sized one nappies for you kinky ones who can get proper sex-I mean with sheep! |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Susanne (skw) Date: 06 Dec 01 - 06:26 PM Re inflatable funny creatures - if I inflate any more than I've already done over this past year I'll sink the ship (or plane). Hope it's ok if I stay uninflated ... Also, I have no nappies for flinging but could offer to bring assorted cat litter instead (as well as some sheep litter for Eric)! |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: lady penelope Date: 06 Dec 01 - 06:43 PM Mooman........WIMP! What's this asian-apple dancing then? I'm doing belly dancing at the mo'. I'm even getting a jingly scarf, oooh! ( God, I need to get out more!) TTFN M'Lady P. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Dead Horse Date: 06 Dec 01 - 07:41 PM It's either Asian-Apple or Apple-Asian, forget which. Kay will no doubt remind me when she gets home. You put jingle-taps on your feet, and itching powder in your socks then away you go. I might see a way to make a couple of bob out of all this, if I was to bring my battery powered inflater & charge a quid a go. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Liz the Squeak Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:03 AM I've got an inflatable crocodile, will that do?? LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Micca Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:31 AM We need someone with a tad more ambition!! Like Guy Fawkes!! He tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament, and I didn't even KNOW they were inflatable.. |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: mooman Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:35 AM Oh?...I missed the skinny dipping...count me in after all!!! mooman |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: mooman Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:52 AM ...but only if I can go skinny dipping with Lady Penelope! (;>) mooman |
Subject: RE: BS: Son of Stony Stratford From: Gervase Date: 07 Dec 01 - 05:13 AM Oh dear - I always say "no" to skinny dipping, and then I'm usually first in. Oh gawd. This is going to end in tears! Mind you, looking at the map, I can't see a body of water big enough to take the average 'Catter round Stony Stratford... |
