I've bought a wood!

[bearded bloke]

Much thou art verily indispensable.

I fancy to grant you the making of a potion for your pleasure. What will it be?

Thank you kindly Maid Donna,wouldst thou have any potions with the taste of elderflower perchance

[bearded bloke]

Wilt thou be joining us this evening for an uncommonly good evening of revelry?

I shall return later this eve after having tended my pets & plants then a merry time shall be had by all

[veggiechicken]

And I must away for a little exercise with the hounds, perchance to find some wood for the fire to keep us warm later. The sun is still high in the sky and I can feel its warmth still, but later, as it drops out of sight and the moon, its sister, rises we will need some activity to warm us, along with a few flagons of the Red Stocking Special! I do hope Cook has ordered another ox, I know how the Merry men need their red meat. Mayhap, some of Mistress Jeanie's delectable Cake too...........

[donnakebab]

Ah! Thou hast good taste Much. Verily last year I did make elderflower wine with a pop, fizz and a whiz. I'll have a furtle in my hovel and see if there's any left. And in my under layers I shall find a lotion to ease your aching muscles for thou hast truly worked thy fingers to the bone for the benefit of our merry band.

[mothhawk]

Good day fellow merry men and ladies! It has been a long walk through the woods to reach you all once more, and much has changed since last I stood in the greenwood. Alas I may not stay long - the moon is but one day new and will cast no light on my darkling journey home once more.

[ladylottie]

There was many a leg last even that was stripped of green tights after a short while with a Red Stocking

Now look here - I'm working my fingers to the bone without you lot throwing off your green tights at the drop of a hat or even at a drop of the Red Stocking Ale If you lose your tights in the dark in the greenwood then you'll have to go without until I get chance to make you a spare pair. And it's ok while the weather's nice and warm, but we might get another cold snap and then where will you be?

I have skipped with a hey nonney nonney through the countryside (t'internet style) and come accross some woad
[ATTACH=CONFIG]29324[/ATTACH]

I have also ascertained that certain members of the borage family may also produce a dye - hast thou any in fair wood or garden? I have some few, but all of a paltry size.

Thanks PnK for the woad. Will your borage stuff do Lincoln Green though? - they are all so picky, wanting green tights.

Hey VC, I think we need a Dyer to join the cast - I can just about keep up with the spinning and weaving but the Dying is pushing it

[mothhawk]

I see that Much has provided us with a gaily wrought pavilion, in which I hope there will be much merriment and dancing later this e'en, and also extra refreshment, should the good master Brewer's hostelry be drunk dry. And though but the son of a common miller, he shall in my eyes be raised to the level of gentle knight for his courtesy in providing discreet amenities for us fair maids.

[Nicos]

I believe one of the Merry men has placed some of these along the more popular routes through the woods-

There is a plant will produce a good green, though many curse it. It be called horsetail.

Then I shall worry no more to return through the shadows with such wondrous creatures to light my path.

[veggiechicken]

I too have returned from my wanderings and my heart in gladdened to see the safe return of some of our Wenches. For who knows who or what may be lurking in the darkest corners of the wood, far from the reach of those mystical creatures.
Fair Lady Lottie, we shall do our utmost to find a Dyer who can relieve you of some of your tasks. I will put an ad in the local broadsheet for you forthwith and fifthwith too.
Until one be found, makest the tights without colour, so that they may resemble those strange garments that go by the name of Long John's Silver colour tights.

[veggiechicken]

WANTED, Urgently, DYER, Must be experienced in the procurement and processing of native plants, particularly those that produce a Green Colour. Colour charts available showing the exact shade, namely Lincoln Green. Wages to be negotiated, Full bed and bawd offered.

[mothhawk]

... Full bed and bawd offered.

Do we have a bawd, then? Oh, lawks, for shame (blushes fetchingly at the thought)

Certes it cannot be any of our wenches nor Lady Marion. Perchance an unknown cast member?

[veggiechicken]

I feel sure that one of the wenches is up for grabs, Mistress Falconer
