I've bought a wood!

[Feral007]

Oh right - well I guess I'm not a peasant in a hovel since I have no lupins growing here about! So pleased to hear that! But is he organic?
VC - do keep up - well it's flippin hard to keep up when you lot is so far behind me! The sun is risin' and getting back to settin' afore you lot is getting up and having your first ale and omelette of the day!
Verily, I'm wondering where me green leggings are (and are they called grennings in Jay Jays?)
Oh well, I'm off now to find the glowworms and see if I can get some more gold from those tax collector chappies. Heloooo, helloooooo where aaaaaaaaaaaaareeee youuuuuuuuu?
A man in green tights with money .............what more could a maid asketh for?

[bearded bloke]

I don't even know who Dennis Moore is. Is he organic? Does he grow Fruit and Veg?

No,not Fruit & Veg grower,but a collector of Lupins,a pretty flower oft times found growing in the gardens of peasant hovels that surround this woodland.

And a Blessed Good Morrow to you, Faithful Young Hostler! Thou art entitled to some time off in the loo, after all thy stalwart service.
We in the wood always partake of ale with our meals (and oft times without our meals) as it can be relied upon to be as sterile as Nat's pee - unlike the stream water hereabouts which has been used for the washing of undergarments.

[Glutton4...]

I bid thee a hearty good Morning merrie woodland folke. This morn I have delegated the caring of th'Osses and 'Ounds to those younger and fitter bodies, in order that I may partake of a lazy start to the day, for a change. All this up-early-and-on-with-it wears thin on occasion, and some respite is needed. I will be readily taking care of my duties in the latter part of the day, however, so do not assume that I have shirked my responsibilities on a permanent basis!

In the meantime, more mundane tasks will be carried out, for to appease the master of this house. Tasks that would be all the sooner completed were the lending establishment to re-implement their usual method of speedy communications, which appear to be non-working, currently.

Why do I have a yearning for ale at this time of day!?

Dennis Moore - Post 278 - Feral. Do keep up!! Monty Python - Dennis Moore - YouTube

[Feral007]

Woohoo! No: 1 at last!!!

Oh that's probably because you are talking about Dennis Moore and him being 'in your parts' He's not in mine and I don't even know who Dennis Moore is. Is he organic? Does he grow Fruit and Veg? And does he know how to make sloe gin without sloes?
Is he Feral? And does he wear tights.........ohhhhhh I love a man in tights! Even if he doesn't know what a good wood in wales is! Or a treechange in good old oz! Wasn't the Iron Lady's old man called Dennis?
We're having Beef Strog, Cabbage, Zuchinni's and radishes.........tis an ill wind........will be a feral wind with all those blitherin' radishes!

Good'y to those who visit here from far off lands where the sun doth shine at hours that are strangely out of tune with those here in the wood. You are most welcome for your visits are as a breath of fresh air, albeit somewhat tempered by the reek of strong ale from those late night tasting sessions in which you indulge.
I wish our Herbalist and Archer a safe journey today as she ventures forth to visit her aged parents - take care not to run foul of Dennis Moore, for I hear he is in your parts
And to all others who shall visit us in the Wood today, I bid welcome, for the sun doth shine and there is much to plant and sow to feed our merry band through the cold winter months to come.
BTW We're at No 1 this fine morn!!

[bearded bloke]

Verily I need a flippin' gps to find me way round this here scrubby plot.

Yay verily thou need to converse with the keeper of 'oses &'ounds for she doth have SatNag installed on her own steed,she seth 'tis mightily handy to get between hovels that purvey Red Stocking & Brains beverages

[RedThorn]

Me thought awhile that Master Chaucer had paid a visit. He hath many a ribald story to relate I can tell thee...One of 'ems about a nun forsooth! And his Pater was a wine merchant. Useful contact me thinks. Anybody acquainted with said personage?

OF SCHEMES AND TROPES (1550) BY RICHARD SHERRY that's where I lifted that excerpt....

Cor, talk about hard work keeping up with you lot I'm over the hill and far away, the sun doth set far earlier here *really should stop sampling my wares, there's strange 2 legged things bouncing past me.....*

[Peas'n'Kews]

Thanks PnK for the woad. Will your borage stuff do Lincoln Green though? - they are all so picky, wanting green tights.

Fair Lady Lottie - your fingers will be spun to a farethewell, many thanks from all of those in tights (I think me boots cover most of me legs!). Borage won't give you Lincoln Green, and we need that to hide in the trees from sherrif and his men.

for hands that do dishes....... just for you Much

No REAL fairies were harmed in the making of this dish cleansing potion!

Parked cars?? What are these?

I believe our jester may have meant parked COWS??

Good morrow all, fair weather and the gods' speed to you all....

[Feral007]

Phewww! Here I was worriting that the woman wuld be askin' if I'd taken any gold from them tax collector chappies...........and I'm planning on buying up the last of those green tights that are being spun and knitted, and selling them on wood-bay to the man with the most monies......or the nicest looking legs!

[veggiechicken]

Good even Midwife Feral. I am just preparing to retire (for I am of that age group). My Maid Mistress Lottie has laid out a clean nightie (D'oh) and the fire has been banked up for the night. Mayhap the Master Brewer at the Red Thorn will be along ere long and you can share a tankard or two.
Thou hast much catching up to do and this will occupy your waking hours, while we sleep soundly by the camp (ooh Ducky) fire.
Fare thee well, we will meet again on the morrow.

[Feral007]

Ello? Ello? Tugging me forelock - tis yore Colonial Feral here. I 'ave been orf deliverin'g babbies; and messed with a few of them sherriff's tax collectors for a bit of lite relief on the way back home.

Trouble wiv them glowworms is that the beggars don't glow as sunrise comes closer. Verily I need a flippin' gps to find me way round this here scrubby plot. And we all knows that babbies is only ever born in the dark of night when midwife wud rather be pushing up zed's in the forest; By the time you clean up and has a cup of mead it's always mornin'.

Wake me up again when there's more RT ale to be had then.

[veggiechicken]

Methinks the time has come for me to bid ye Goodnight. May the stars light your path to dreamland and may the sun shine upon our endeavours on the morrow. Fare thee well!

[bearded bloke]

I shall take my leave of thee & return on the morrow,I thank thee for thine good company on this balmy eve
