I've bought a wood!

How's your tonsure, Friar? You should be telling us how it is hanging ( can you see the difference in gentlewoman speak and Nottinghamese, ladies and gentlemen?)

Aye theres a big, big difference, Youse and that Robin fella are of noble birth, well he's the Earl of Loxley and your as near as damn it ta royalty.

Where as the rest a us are off peasant stock and speak proper like.

PM would be appropriate, methinks

A PM? But I cannot see how Sir Dave of Chipping Norton could be useful in either action or word - for he is as useless an oaf as ever there was one - a tad like myne owne beloved spouse prithee.

My humble apologies to you but I drink'eth not of the brewed beverage known as ale, however, my keg doth overflow'eth with the pristine spring water of the woodland.

I too enjoy a flagon or two of woodland spring water occasionally, but one has to be very careful there has not been any animal (four or two-legged) leaving any (shall we say - ahem) deposits in the stream higher up. At least you know what is in the ale

[ladylottie]

Eh up me ducks, I'm back from air dresser, hows it hangin to-nate?

Tuck.

What your hair? I can't see from here Seems that the cook is missing and others have been providing us with the food - bread and salad and potatoes and cake and lots of other lovely goodies. If you're quick the others won't have eaten it all yet.
But don't tell the cook though that we've been managing alright without her - it could cause a strike or at the worst food poisoning

And what be this jibberish that Robin speaketh? Be there worms in his brain addling them to a pulp?

Mistress Jules, You and I are equal in stature though St Michael is more likely to have been influential in my girth. I daily call on his support, Praise be! Let us raise a Large Cup in his name.
The wise women are here, if you need a discrete word - a PM would be appropriate, methinks

[donnakebab]

I am most honoured that you should consider me so mighty in your presence when, should truth be out, I am but only 5ft2. And my girth shrinketh every day, praise be to St Atkin.

One is in need of a potion for bannishment of these things which are sent to try us - and I will apply it with liberal hande to myne husband who is sorely in need of a swift kick in the cod piece.

I am in possession of just such a potion that I would be glad to give to thee. For there is nothing I like better than the thought of a man being rendered disabled in the cod piece region.

Fair Lady Jules, we would be honoured to have you in our midst. We have many wise women (and some pretty stupid ones) here who may be able to aid you in your troubles. They have potions and lotions to soothe every ill, failing that some of Master Brewer of the Red Thorn's Red Stocking Ale is guaranteed to wipe out all other ails. I will add thee to our number as Musician as is more befitting a lady of your stature (about 5' 6").

[julesapple]

Suddenly, the Wood is alive with the Sound of Music, with songs we have sung.. for at least 4 days...
Jules, are you a Minstrel who wishes to join our Merry band? For we are in need of entertainers to lighten the dark evenings as all we do to fill the dark hours is eat, drink and be merry - and a bit of wenching...... .

Forsooth, I should be honoured to join thy Merrie Bande, but I fear that this night, I am not up to much goode entertainment fore I am sorely tried this even tide.

[veggiechicken]

Thank you muchly Much for such delights are truly those for which I have been hankering. Good honest food, none of this jus of that or flambe of summat else - but don't mention this to Cook for one cannot be certain what may find its way into the stockpot if she is upset.

[bearded bloke]

For those with rumbly tums I bear good news,being the son of a miller I can get you a few loaves






I also found some salad for fillings .............








And for those wanting hot grub,by forward planing from the hot bonfire ashes I have retrieved some spuds ready for filling from the salad bar .....








Eat hearty my friends

[veggiechicken]

Carrot cake! yea, verily, yea!

That cake looks so delicious I've been licking the screen (a woven structure made from willows or hazel - before you ask)

I can do orf with it's head?

Just don't let me see it for I am of squeamish nature Could you pass some cake please.
