I am going to take over the fortune tellers tent..... Consult Mystic Minnow... Cross my fin with silver .... Goes off to find suitable costume......

Can i be in charge of hook a duck? I feel like one of those ducks just bobbing about in a circle going nowhere fast! xx

in reply tocharlii

But of course nice and relaxing , just don't give me away as a prize please :)

Please miss, can I have the carousel? I always loved those horses! And I fancy a bit of Mary Poppins magic - all aboard for a horse-ride to who-knows-where!

xx

Ooohhh yes and if you want a Mary Popping adventure quick leap on a horse and chase down the big wheel , I will follow as soon as I have squeezed into my sparkly cloak

:o

in reply to

Tally-Ho! toot-ta-da-ta-toot!

I'm off in hot pursuit!

Mounted on my painted horse

(in super-fibromite costume of course)

Chasing down the big wheel

I'll demonstrate my nerves of steel

Then back to Libby's ride for me

And a well-deserved cuppa tea!

in reply to

Charges after Kaz on another horse dressed in a rather tight fortune tellers costume dropping stars all over the forum..... If we capture the big wheel and get back to Libby's for a cuppa I,ll tell both your fortunes..

in reply to

Make mine a good one - LOL!

Got to be the Teacup Ride for me please VG, I am always up for a cuppa and I just love this ride, reminds me of the days when my children were small too! ;)

Can't wait to see your fairground costume and love the name Mystic Minnow! Do you read palms or tea leaves?! ;)

xxxx

Tea leaves and the crystal ball.... Shhhhh don't tell anyone it's just a goldfish bowl turned upside down.... I,ll read your tea leaves in exchange for a cuppa ... ;)

Ooo can I do the hoopla pretty pleeeeeeze.???

Ooh hoopla.. I can throw a mean hoop with my fins of steel, make sure you nab some good items as prizes. Surely there must be something good in admins dressing room ;)

I am sure I can find some. I thought I could put a clean pair of Moffys gold plated knickers in a box with a bow on and make it the star prize. Hoops never go over square boxes so no one will win. There is also a spare tiara, some nail varnish, a pot plant, a picture of HRH next to Fibro1, a gold fish and a cuddly toy. Anyone got any donations?

in reply to

Wow - with prizes like this I can't wait to have a go - unfortunately, I'm rather busy at the moment riding my painted horse, and trying to catch up with a run-away big wheel! But I may be back later.

in reply to

I,m trying to keep up with you Kaz but some dratted cartoon penguins keep getting in the way and slowing me down.....

in reply to

How are you going to get the big wheel back up the hill?

in reply to

Hmmm - good point.

Quickly scribbles sign

'We apologise to all our customers for the shortage of horses on the carousel today - they are currently undergoing additional training'

Right, that's that part of the problem solved!

Come on horses, let's go harness you to that wheel. Thank goodness it's round! At least it'll roll up the hill once I've got my horsepower attached.

Could do with some help though - I need something to attach the horses to each other, and to the big wheel. And some extra riders to help steer the horses in the right direction! Looks around the forum for some 'volunteers' ......

in reply to

Ok I,ve left the cartoon penguins in charge of the candy floss stall moffy is giving rather a long reading to Russell Crowe in the fortune tellers tent and fortunately my sons just restrung all his guitars so we have some nice strong strings to tie the horses together, now if Libs would just stop drinking tea for a minute I am sure we could construct a harness and get them moving ,,,, as no one has owned up for letting the Big wheel lose I,ll blame Gins

in reply to

Yeeee- Haaawww!

Giddy-up ponies!

Gallops off brandishing guitar strings.

.....

.....

comes back - COME ON YOU TWO - put your tea down, and saddle up!

in reply to

I.m here seems Libby's excuse is Russell Crowe and moffy need a cuppa as moffy is having trouble telling his fortune... Now I hear a lot of giggling and clinking of tea cups from the fortune tellers tent

in reply to

Tut tut! Keanu Reeves please, I gave Russell to Kaz! :P

in reply to

Reluctantly hands over Russell Crowe, I had him hidden away after the Lone Ranger adventure... Not sure you can use him as a prize but you will certainly attract summerlite to your stall....

Oooooo thank you. I will stand him in the corner and he can collect all the hoops that people throw. Well I am a Princess you know and I don't do collecting. Flicks hair back.

This is Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious xxxxxx

Hey, Mystic Minnow - can I be in charge of the candy floss? I'm sulking a bit 'cos i would have liked to be Mystic Moffy! Never mind, candy floss tastes nicer than your crystal ball!

Madame Moffy ... seller of Psychic candy floss xxx

Gallops past Moffys stall on her painted horse with a penguin on the back and pays quickly for two candy floss ..sorry Can't,stop got a big wheel to capture... The candy floss will help cos I,m not really psychic, but if you can read a goldfish bowl and tea leaves I,ll be happy to swap for candy floss stall as long as no one tells KazF I am eating it as well as selling...

Eh? What's that? Sorry - can't hear anything - someone's put candyfloss in my ear! Now, who would do a thing like that?

Throws the fortune tellers costume to Moffy and realises the reason it was soo tight ... Hmmm I appear to be wearing an Edwardian afternoon tea gown as well, gallops on after Kaz while the penguin holds the candy floss

ladymoth profile image
ladymoth

OOOh! Where did you get the Edwardian tea gown? Have you been on Downton Abbey without telling us? I lurve Edwardian costumes - don't let the penguin peck holes in it, 'cos I wanna borrow it on Saturday.

Got to go now - Kaz needs her ears syringed!

xxx

in reply toladymoth

From Mary Poppins along with the cartoon penguins sure you can borrow it

:)

All is fair in love and Jezza! xx

Waits for Charlii to realise she is now stuck to her hook a duck chair with candy floss then wanders off with Jeremy, waggling her fins seductively :D

Yay the roller coaster is now open thanks to kugagirl ... Yes come to me for candy floss After the roller coaster and then make Moffys palm all sticky in the fortune tellers tent :D

does she go well with chips?

we can't do it! who would invent new scenarios?

mission "free agent 006.5" needs planning...

in reply tohamble99b

Looks pathetically at Sandra, there I was helping Kaz tether the big wheel to the carousel horses and now I am a prize in a bowl... I was right about the bags not being big enough....

hamble99b profile image
hamble99b

I'll bring Jonny Depp for the 1 kiss = £1 stall. but you only get 1 go!

sandra.

Nooooo let me spend my overdraft on jonny depp .. Kicks Jeremy Kyle out of the hall of mirrors... Sorry attraction closed and rushes to kiss jonny depp

Maladjusted profile image
Maladjusted in reply to

Don't be greedy VG - you keep Jeremy, you have already had a go at HRH and Russell Crowe. If Johnny Depp is on the kissing stall, one go is all I'll need (frantically rubbing superglue on lips)

in reply toMaladjusted

Have you been wearing the ear trumpets,? One whisper of jonny depp and you pick up on it... .... Hopefully I am being smuggled to safety by Sandra and a small rescue party before I am served as sushi.... quick get in before the superglue sets

Maladjusted profile image
Maladjusted in reply to

Nothing wrong with my ears - It's the rest of my body that is falling apart. Hope you are now safely hidden and disguised as a kipper! Sorry can't talk - lips stuck together :(

Ahem - excuse me ladies!

I have just had a message from HRH - I think he's feeling a bit left out! Now that we're all running around enjoying ourselves at the fair, he's got no passengers in FibroAir.

He says he's very resourceful, and can we find him something interesting to do ....?

hamble99b profile image
hamble99b in reply to

he could join jonny on my stall... or he could rescue the wheel.

secretly hrh h and I are off to save vg.

in reply to

Just heard from HRH, he says he's more than happy to bring his Apache helicopter to join the funfair for free pleasure flights, now form an orderly queue girls! ;) :P xxxx

What a good idea. Me first.

Whispers a quiet thank you to Sandra so no one will hear I am being rescued

Have emailed the local sushi bar and they have cleared a space on the revloving buffet table in keen anticipation......they arent fussy about your lack of marals! xx

ladymoth profile image
ladymoth

Goodness me! I popped away from the fairground to get some shopping, and you've all been up to mischief while I've been away!

I have everything organised. Prince H. is in charge of the ride with the aeroplanes on, tho' I told him if he'd get a slap if he kept winding it up to top speed when there's a load of pensioners on board. He said it was his Granny's fault, as she and Prince P. are speed freaks!

I have been treated to the awesome sight of our Beloved Monarch and her Consort, whirling around at top speed, courtesy of the Ginger Twit (Prince H.)

Her Majesty was heard to shout "Tally Ho", but Prince P's opinion was, as usual, unprintable!

I have sent VG's tea gown to the cleaners, fed the penguins, and snogged Johnny Depp - what would you do without me?

As soon as i have unglued poor ol' Charlii from the duck stall, I will get started on the fortune telling again!

Mystic Moffy xxxx

Well you could help Sandra rescue me as charlii is spreading rumours about my lack of morals....looks at moffy innocently , she also is trying to get me served up at a sushi bar ... I need rescuing I have lent you my dress... Also I know you haven't only been shopping as I saw Libby and Russell Crowe slip in the fortune tellers tent with three cups and I heard you and Libs giggling......

in reply to

VG I gave Russell to Kaz, I felt sorry for Keanu so we are having a ride in HRH's Apache at the moment, oh the sky's the limit! :O :P xxxx

Ummm... how come I've been round and round this funfair and not seen RC yet??? Am panicking now... Blossom and I were having a whirl by the way...

ladymoth profile image
ladymoth

Curses! I have been found out! Tell charlii we don't want none of those morals on here spoiling our fun!

I am rushing to your rescue, VG - I will knock out the sushi chef with a pound of stone-cold rice, which I had sewn into the back of the tea gown for just such an eventuality. If that fails he gets the lobster!

Russell Crowe is right behind me wearing his 'Gladiator' get-up (oh yummy yum!) so you are going to be well and truly rescued!

xxx

Quick summer RC is with Moffy and a pound of rice and a lobster please get him before he eats my rescue pack.

summerlite profile image
summerlite

ON MY WAY VG!!! Moffy mentioned the 'maximas look' and my back leg began to twitch...(no I'm not back in panto mode!)...and my already long suffering knees gave way. But I'm back up and running(well sort of) and should be there in a tick. I promise to save your rescue pack and I'll through caution to the wind and sacrifice myself to his hunger....running faster....

Umm has anyone noticed that M superglued her lips to Jonny Depps about an hour ago that's a very long kiss I think she must be charged more than. £1 mind you I don't see him resisting... Charlii is sitting on Jeremy kyles lap at the hook a duck stall summer has disappeared with Russell Crowe and Libby's up in fibro air with keanau reaves that leaves the rest of us with HRH can't see him complaining at that..... And Gins is still in hiding cos we Sussed out she didn't tighten the nuts on the big wheel properly...

just send me the bill - I'll send it to Johnny - he seemed to be enjoying himself - still is (would grin wickedly but lips seem to be stuck in pucker mode)

Greedy Vg, you can have jeremy now, cos there i was, glued to my stall by candyfloss, a damsel in distress and lo and behold a knight on a white horse sped to my aid. He duly rescued me and i removed his helmet (oo-er...calm down Moffy) and it was liam neeson. He put me on the back off his horse and away we go! Byyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee xx

Maladjusted profile image

woo hoo lucky Charlii, though Johnny is a pretty good kisser, I think I might keep him here for a while

Sorry I'm late but can I run the shooting gallery? Its one of those where if you hit the bullseye you get a photo of yourself with your face scrunched up concentrating on the target :)

Ohh any photo that doesn't show up my double chin would be a great prize... PS don't let moffy near your stall she wears a coat with a target on the back.. Don't ask.;)

wallflower_fairy in reply tohamble99b

Good suggestion! :) I will get some in stoke now. :D But I will probably need some extra assistance now - do you want to help me run the stall, Sandra? 8-)

You will be provided with a complimentary, sun hat. Courtesy of wanderingwallflower TM. ;) xxxx

hamble99b profile image
hamble99b in reply towallflower_fairy

I'd love too!

can we attach it to my kiss stall? as I don't want to leave jonny depp unguarded. I got back from rescuing vg and his lips were covered in glue - he had a funny smile and kept sighing happily, but there was only one extra pound in the tin...

jonny depp & ice-cream and a funky fairy - how can we lose?

sandra.

wallflower_fairy profile image
wallflower_fairy in reply tohamble99b

Of course we can! :D

Dear Jonny needs all the guarding we can give him (so admin don't decide to snatch him away lol). I have moved my stall next to the kissing booth right infront of the entry, so that all who want to partake have to buy at least one item.

Yes.. I can see it! A complimentary kiss with every ice cream/slushy/candy floss + flake. hamble and wanderingwallflower will take the stand together. We will be the best stall of the whole funfair! 8-) We will be remarkable.

Would Jonny gimme a kiss in return for one of my items. 'Jonny? Jonny?' *Whispers in ear* 'I offer organic ice cream!'

I'm glad you like the hat, Sandra. :) It really suits you. I have attached a flake to the ice cream - but in the shape of fairy wings - why have such amazing stock if we canna put our own stamp on it, eh? (Also, edible wing shaped glitter crafts on some of the candyfloss.) 'Oh no!' *Hands slips + Pours the majority of glitter over Jonny.* *Puts hand over mouth in shock* 'Sorry.' *Tries to suppress chuckle.* 'It only makes you more dazzling'. ;-)

A.) Tiny

B.)Regular

C.) ... Heart-shaped! :D

I also sell swirly ice cream, and slushies - in all the colours of the rainbow. :) If you wish? xxxx
