56 Replies

It's that time of year again .... The forum Summer fayre.... All are welcome ... Bring a cake to enter the cake competition ... Bring your pet to star in the pet show do you have a talking bird an extremely clever cat the cutest dog .... Have a go on the stalls.... Do you want to run a stall ... Volunteers needed.... Moffy has been banned from running the coconut shy as last year she stripped off and used the coconuts to make a bra..... Do you have a talent for entertaining.... I would run the tombola again but last year I forgot ;) to put any winning tickets in so I have been assigned the book stall ... If anyone has 50 shades of grey to donate I can read that while manning the stall :D

I've got all three episodes of '50 Shades of Grey' to donate, plus 20 back numbers of 'Scarlett Women', so you won't be bored while looking after the book stall.

I hope you realise that '50 Shades' is not a Dulux publication, and 'Scarlett Women' is not by Louisa May Alcott, so maybe you'd better sit down with your smelling salts before you start reading!

I've brought next door's dog for the pet show - just hope they don't find out :) I have also made a lovely Victoria Sandwich for the cake competition. Foggy's entry looked better than mine, so I've eaten it :p :D

I'll run a stall if you like - the bottle stall is my favourite! :)

Moffy x

As long as you don't open the alcoholic ones and water them down like you did at the church bring and buy ..... You ATE Foggys cake ... And didnt give me any ..... Pfftt

Opens a back issue of Scarlett woman ... Turns scarlet and slumps under the stall .... Still reading avidly :D

Clearly you have had an infestation of calories in your wardrobe, they sneak in and take in your clothes overnight........... ;-)

in reply to Fibrofoggiest

I knew it...... Thank you foggy after the fayre I will go and order some calorie repellant ... If you spray it on cakes does it take the calories out???????

Fibrofoggiest in reply to

Nope, they're like little ants with backpacks on and they are very repellent resistive......just keep taking in clothes all over the places.....we should find something like moth balls to keep them out of our wardrobes, but I doubt it will work alas :-(

A home is not a home without a Gnome! If you won't make space for one, they have to go to Gnome man's land - very sad not to have gnome to go to!

Someone turn the hose on VG - she's getting overheated reading all those suggestive magazines!

Hides under plastic bags with volume no 6 and a large supply of gnomes hidden from gins and moffy :(
