I've bought a wood!

I always fold the bog roll like that when I've cleaned the bathrooms.

My mrs thinks I'm insane

I can't argue with your Mrs - the lady is always right!!

Good day Merry band and today will, verily be a good day for us all. For I have received word from afar that there may be a new member joining our band in the not so distant future for he hath made overtures towards joining already. I know little about him but he has a strange, foreign name that is difficult upon the tongue, yekim. I hope he will make himself known to us soon.
.......... Our new Merrie man has arrived. His name has been adapted to something that we can pronounce - let us welcome Mick of All Trades (and Master of None!) to our midst. We can call on Mick to fetch and carry and be the general DogsBody - But ladies, I beseech you, be gentle with him for he knoweth not our ways and some of them are a little strange

Good morrow to all. I hope you all had a peaceful night's sleep and didn't all toss about in the sticky heat. Today looks like being another very hot day despite a few clouds around at the moment so let's hope for a few gentle breezes blowing through our fair woodland.
O good - another Merrie Man to join our band and one who speaks a strange and foreign tongue. (Just how strange is he?) Perhaps he will have many a new skill to teach us. We will see.
After I have broken my fast I will check how many pairs of tights I have left in the storehouse. I may not have his size.........

[DGoulston]

Good Morrow to All,

I bid plenty Ale to make the merry men merrier, and Wine for the ladies! To also make the merry men merrier

KRTL.

[veggiechicken]

Good morrow, Sire, (curtsies.. that's me, not King Dick). I will ask Master Brewer to send more casks and Much to 'ave a rummage in the Stores - so it pleaseth your Maj.
Fancy popping round later for a jar or two

[DGoulston]

I will enjoy the many casks today in the realm, as for tomorrow I set sail on the Norfolk Broads (from Broads Haven, Potter Heigham) to travel many winding sea's for a stag do! (I am the best man)

There will be many casks going amiss and debotury a-plenty!

I will be travelling on this suitable vessel with a few of my finest merry men for 3 nights and days.



Any recommendations of a fine Inn of which, we can anchor up at would be well received!

A fine morning to all of this gentle wood. Verily my knee begins to mendeth and the young physic I met with yester morn did talk much uncommon sense, twas a joy to listen to his words of comfort. Indeed it was great surprise to me that he hath taken such interest in my health. Sevensooth in past times t'has not been my experience. He even desireth that I meet with a very special physic with regard to my sweet blood for he did say that I have not many years, and that I would benefit from greater information than has until now been imparted to me by lesser physics and their underlings.

(For truth I did not tell him the true number of my years for indeed my birth date is lost in the mists of time. T'would be beyond his comprehension.)

So let us celebrate today my ongoing recovery...but no cakes for me for I be sweet enough already!

[veggiechicken]

'Tis indeed good news Mistress that thou art healing so finely.
I did promise never to reveal the date and circumstances of thy birth and I will hold to my promise for it is a fine thing to be able to deceive others in matters relating to age.
I shall celebrate your ongoing recovery by partaking of mine own cake and yours - as I am in need of a great sweetening today.

[bearded bloke]

Yea verily we shall feel sorry for the residents of Potter Heigham,tis a quite backwater with quite folk in humble hovels,they are not accustomed to the noise & revelry of drunken knights

Any recommendations of a fine Inn of which, we can anchor up at would be well received!

Litterally all the waterside pubs will be pleased to have your custom,while you are in Potter Heigham look for the alladins cave that is Roy's of Wroxham (if they dont sell it,you dont need it) for bargains galore.
Have a great time

*Just a word of caution though,drunk in charge of a vessel now carries the same penalties as in a car & it is enforced on the broads*

[bearded bloke]

Good morrow, Sire, (curtsies.. that's me, not King Dick). I will ask Master Brewer to send more casks and Much to 'ave a rummage in the Stores - so it pleaseth your Maj.

Yey verily there is ale aplenty and I have a selection of wench's for his perusal









Edit:Sorry,those are King Dick wrenches...........NOT King Dick's wenches


Amazing how just a single letter can change the contextural meaning innit

[veggiechicken]

Good Day to ye Much, once again I commend you on your Store keeping - for they have rarely been found wanting. Indeed some of your Stock is soooooooo appropriate that I do roll about, clutching my sides and wheezing, such that the Good wives have sent for the physick to see what ails me. And, in my apoplexy, all I can say is I am Much amused.........

[taff]

I must say your collection of wenches is most impressive. Mayhap you have heard of the rare one known as a mole wench? Look at the claws on that oooerrrr

[bearded bloke]

Thank ye kindly fair maid,I am pleased that ye art pleased,but I must now beg you leave to make hast to yon market place to purchase products to brighten my hovel

[Peas'n'Kews]

Good morrow all.

It pleaseth mine ears to hear that our Old/Young Crone (DK) is feeling better and that the physic's advise has been of some small use.

i have prepared a potion for the giving to the lords who snore - it contains drafts which will make them sleep with their'n mouths closed, or at least allow thee to give 'em a good kick so they roll over!
