  • Oh wow @angryboy why did i think you in Ct?
    No matTer I'm off To dreamland :)
  • I just looked on the map. No nesters within hundreds of miles of tas, and only one other Pig fan in the country. That would be my friend @bboss.
    The only people directly west of me are in CA and remotely in Texas and Colorado and Kansas. Don't know many of them either.
    Me=lonely=:(

  • Hey congrats @mumsie :)
    OB, one coffee please
  • Rat sheepishly sticks his long nose through the crack in the bar door. Sniffs once or twice, his long whiskers twitching as he does. There be cookies here. Slowly, so as not to be noticed, he edges his head forward just far enough to allow a quick look. Yesss, yesss. Look at all those people munching delicious cookies. Crumbs everywhere. Kimmie, hearing something, glances at the door. All she sees is the door closing slowly. Rat knows he'll be back for all those wonderful crumbs later.
  • *poof*
    WAHAHAHAAAHA hmmmmm did I see @rat????? Nawwww no rats in here.......

    *poof*

    WAHAHAHAAAHA
  • Mumsie thought she felt a draught, looked round but the door was closed. What was Kimmie talking about? Mumsie opened her iPad and decided to look back through the BP journal to get a flavour of all that has happened in the lives of the wonderful beings who populate this virtual pub!
  • *kimmie quietly ooooh soooo quietly poofs up behind @mumsie and whispers gently......thar be @rats in the BP......watch yer toes missy, then poofs back out as quietly as she came*
  • Congrats on the anniversary, @mumsie, here's to another great year of flinging:D
  • @mvnla2, I know that rhotic means that the individual pronounces there R's, and non-rhotic means that they don't:) (I got that from the article you found, which stated how Northern English folks are still rhotic, and I don't know where they got it from, but they are wrong;) Sill have no idea what drupe is though;]
  • Mmm! Mumsie reads that Kimmie is correct! (Again!) we seem to have an exceptionally well spoken, well, read, well behaved @rat who is a superior flinger to boot! Mumsie is looking forward to sharing a cookie or two with him.
    Well off to eat my first and second drupe of the day(a cherry, followed by a nectarine ).
    methinks all this talk of accents is interesting, personally, I believe it is the South West English speakers that are rhotic, as the Oxford dictionary describes it as sounding the r before a consonant e.g. as in hard. And at the end of words e.g. As in far
    Now off to do laundry, housework and shopping! Enjoy the cookies folks - see you later!
  • Wwwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhooooooo hhhhhhhhhhhooooooooo. I've completed Seasons greedings, it's not hard like everyone said, I use the @FujiToast's strategy on YouTube and beat it easily, now I'm so happy, all your foods and drinks are on me in 1 week, so call every thing you guys like :D:D:D:D
  • *jlz wheechs through the pub door grabs a handful of cookies,quickly hugs @mumsie and then realises mumsie is doing the laundry so has no idea who she's just hugged! kisses @Kimmie goodnight and wheechs back out the door to work yelling "have a great Saturday @all!"*
  • Hey @rat, don't need to eat crumbs like that, I'll buy you a cookie :D
  • Ooo, nice cake @AM
  • Thanks @am! Third lot of laundry on - some housework done - shopping next !
    Oh congrats Firebird!
  • I haven't had all the 100% Mighty Dragon yet, just need 3 more of them, that means I haven't done ABS completely
  • @fbb -- Congrats on completing SG! Do you have 3* and above average on all? Just a gentle dig at your statement that SG is easy. : D
    @rat -- Never a teacher or officially and editor. I had the fortune / misfortune to go to school when correct grammar was considered important. Not to mention I went to college when E. B. White's The Elements of Style and the Chicago Manual of Style were considered the holy grails of proper English. I once won an argument with a professional technical editor on the proper use of "due to." A victory I still cherish, while misusing the phrase religiously.
    I just heard the word "drupe" the first time yesterday, so no clue if or why a walnut is a drupe.
    Oh yes, AB is not 21, so his location on the map does not reflect where he really lives, except for the state. His residence at Augusta National was entirely of my doing.
    Do you play golf? Mumsie may be more addicted to golf than AB. I play about once a week, which makes me an infrequent golfer compared to Mumsie.
