a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!

(Tuesday) I am back!

[misswobble Graduate]

Thank goodness! We were getting fed up of waiting. Thus, the ob nob collection is somewhat diminished. Blush

So, we dive at dawn! Okidoke. See you then then.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to misswobble]

NCO misswobble, thank you for your instant support. Chocks away!

[liquoricet]

Dozzer, you need to use the zombies run app. I wish there was a lotr one though too. Zombies are fun but nothing compared to running from nazgul!

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to liquoricet]

Hmm, sounds interesting. I don't think zombies have helped yet in my endeavours. Maybe I should look into a new genre - it takes a while to get a book read/film watched. Any recommendations? Now sanity has returned and the Rohirrim ride against the tyrannical nhs.

[Nilzed]

You made me curious if there are other run games like Zombie Run. Most seem to be zombie-filled knock offs of the original. But i did find one with the Lone Ranger, one with dinosaurs and, gulp! Angry Gran Run. Be afraid.

[poppypug Graduate in reply to Nilzed]

Oh my God, its Nanna , Dozz shes found out weve nicked her trolley ! xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Noooooo! Did we get the instruments into the weather balloon before she struck? Are you OK? Are the pugs OK? And you'd just spent the weeks dodger money on the bridle! Do you reckon they'd take them back or are they too specialist?

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Phew, panic over Dozz. I got a 30 day money back deal on the bridles . All instruments in the balloon . Me and the pugs are a bit shocked but okay. Were with Grandad in his shed xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Cripes, it's a good job you were quick off the mark there. Don't go near Grandad's Portuguese Men of War - I think that's what finished me off. We need to keep you healthy for graduation and your promotion photograph

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Oh yes, What rank will I be after my Graduation Friday ? I have forgotten.Have you got someone to step into my very formidable shoes as a replacement for the (ents) division ? xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

You will bypass NCO and Second Lieutenant and immediately become a full Lieutenant. Still in ents div if you wish - I can't imagine I'll ever find anyone to compare to you. You will get the full uniform of the army and a horse too.

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

I will ? Oh Dozz, I am welling up, thankyou so much Sir ! How can I repay such kindness ? I think I would like to stay in ents div, but can I have my own staff, a valet , a butler , dresser, chef, oh I cant work Fridays , and I would like to finish at half one on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays,oh and I don't do Mondays. Get the contract written up Dozz, I will send one of my staff over to sign it xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

You see, how could I have anyone else in ents div!

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Ha ha , you know me so well .

Alas, my little swamp duck, I have to bade you farewell for now. Keep your chin up Dozz, you are doing brilliantly , my friend

Catch you later , be good xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Adieu

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to Nilzed]

Angry Gran run! Whoa, we have a resident, but infrequently seen Scary Granny, maybe they are related.

[AncientMum Graduate]

So glad you're tickerty boo and fighting fit again Sir. Sadly I'm now confined to barracks with the lurgey so can only be of limited use -ocarina playing and Soreen buttering are about my limit this week (oh and cheering on brave comrades-at-arms of course ,)

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to AncientMum]

Ocarina, Soreen and cheering sound like admirable work to me NCO AncientMum. Keep up the good work! Hope you get the better of the lurgey soon. I can always pass you on to Corporal poppypug (ents div) she does good sick note forgeries.

[waletta Graduate]

Bout time you got your butt out of bed - we were worried. Where are you now? Spiritually not geographically. By spiritually I mean which run & when? No silly answers. Well ok so long as you explain them in detail.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

You be careful or I'll put you up for a court martial. 8/2 complete today. A better feeling to the run style. Geographically back at HQ plotting future assaults on the enemy.

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

You can't court marshal me. Haven't thought of a reason why not but I will. Well done on 8/2. Glad you're feeling better. You may have to run 8/3 in Fishguard - that's where I spotted the balloon earlier. It's very nice down there - sea air, ferry to Ireland just think about it, you'll be safe from Nanna's wrath.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

If you do think of a reason I'll think of one to negate it. Fishguard - mmm, I seem remember the Fishguardians are excellent at keeping the enemy at bay. Good destination there Captain Waletta.

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Hmmm Fishguardians? The guarders of fish? Hmmm let me think.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

Ok, Fishguardoise

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Ahem!- pobl Abergwaun.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

Oh yeah, I didn't think about that one. My Welsh isn't too good. Yakkydah (iechhyddah), pedwar, pimp, cwm, araf, eglwys is about it.

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

.Bloody brilliant (Please excuse the French)

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

I will take that as a compliment.

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Dozzer , are you drunk ? xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

I will take that as an insult.

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Doss I am really impressed. Are you a secret Celt? Pugsey be careful, as I said I've been threatened with court marshal & I haven't attacked the weather balloon for at least a week.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

Spent many a formative year in training camp at not too distant Cuffern. It's where I gained a lot of my tactics, strength, cunning and sheer superheroic-ness.

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Yep I recognise those attributes. You could be an honorary cymro!

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

It's a fab spot, I'd be honoured, diolch

[waletta Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Dozz this seems to make you an honoured honorary cymro. Its getting very wordy now but have to say I'm still impressed. Hope Pugsey doesn't think I'm creeping. She's probably too excited to care.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to waletta]

Too right.

[poppypug Graduate in reply to waletta]

I know Waletta, Im sailing very close to the wind here , and all of my hopes of promotion will be dashed ! :-)xxx

[waletta Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Just read your 9/2 post. He wouldn't dare. Roll on Friday - Party time. (I think you are supposed to run it though. Pretty sure there's nothing about sailing in the plan)

[poppypug Graduate in reply to waletta]

Ah damn, that's my plan foiled ! xx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

You were going to walk! I'll send out a camera on the weather balloon to make sure you're keeping speed up.

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

You watch yourself, remember I am omnipresent, I see all!

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Move along, nothing to see here ! (Hides Jammie Dodgers behind back )

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

You've had dodgers all this time and not shared! Well, you find out who your mates are, don't you!

[poppypug Graduate]

Ah there you are Dozz, I have just started a brand new shiny thread for you asking about Nanna...

Re the sick notes , yep no problem , ( taps side of nose and gives a cheeky wink ) xxx

[dozzer19 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Should be fine without the sick notes for a while. Good luck for tomorrow!
