cinnamonmel Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 You know, I've always wanted to go to Canada, so I may yet get nearer to you all. A wedding amidst the turning Maple leaves would be so beautiful! Imagine the wedding pictures!!! Leaves fluttering down, twirling around in a wedding dress, it'd be just like a film, and all my LP friends would be there! And thanks you guys, because this thread is the first thing that made me smile today. Now I'll go and bitch in the bitching thread so as not to spoil the lovely weddingyness of this one.

missdarlyncherie Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I just don't have the clothes for England is the problem. I live in the desert so I haven't invested much in protection from the elements. Coats and all that. Haven't got 'em. Well if we need to focus Mel on one man I guess I've got time. Forgot all about that part until Mara brought it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliebellikins Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 WE MUST ALL GO TO ENGLAND TOGETHER. IT IS WRITTEN. Bwaha! Now Mel just has to decide on a hubby amongst all her little toy boys! We're staying at Ellie's house. Prepare the stables for us, Ellie! Oh my goodness - how did I miss all of this? I'm so sorry ladies. I am too late? Have I missed the wedding? If not I'll get the stables ready in a jiffy and have the pirate ship come collect any who aren't travelling by blimp to the Island.

My dog's crate has a pocket to stick a pheromone cartridge, and I can't drag her out of the thing when I have one in there. I'm sure those collars are wonderful! But back to the wedding.

I also thought Mels was from the US, she didn't sound English at all to me. In fact she sounds a bit like she's a raunchy dirty girl from the South. Like she runs a bordello of wind chimes in New Orleans. Kind of bums me out that she's from England, because I was really enjoying my fantasy of her running that bordello..

Although I will get the stables ready it is only so you can ride in comfort to where you will be staying.... http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/daysout/properties/osborne-house/ Got to keep you ladies in the comfort and style you deserve, plus there is plenty of room to park the blimp.

Yay, we don't have to stay in the hayloft after all! Are you sure you can trust us Americans not to shoot up the joint and ride our horses into the house? (we know what you think of us over there!) I knew someone who told her father that she wanted to move to America, and he said, "What do you want to live THERE for? The place is filled with cowboys all shooting at each other!"

Elliebellikins Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 @ Mara: If you can keep the shootings to a minimum and fit your horses with slippers I really don't think it would be a problem. : ) @ Mel: Queen Victoria isn't using it anymore, so if you can wrestle it off of English Heritage it's yours! Maybe a LPMP posey headed by Mara is just what we need to ensure a smooth takeover. Ladies, bring your guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha fantastic! I love the southern twist that helps me get all of the pronunciations correct. Afternoon tea you say? Capital! I'll get a pot of Earl Grey on the go and knock up some clotted cream scones and homemade strawberry jam. Id do cucumber sandwiches and various afternoon tea fancies but that would just take up valuable scone space.... I say 'scone' as in 'bone' and not 'gone' by the way.
