[Tookish_Traveler]

Avast, mateys!

I am off to Scotland for the day. Do not drink all the rum while I am gone.

!

[Calma]

My best to your mom, Tooks!

Why? Why? Oh Why do they do this to me?!!
Every time I need pizza sauce, the grocery store moves it on me.
I spent ten minutes looking for the stuff.
Usually it's in the "side dishes" section.
My babyman and I thought that was about the dumbest place for it.
That is should be in the pasta secition.
Well, guess where they put it this time....
Yeah... the pasta section...

I need the raccoons to get over there and cause some trouble.

ETA... Ted needs some info.
Check the One Ring Forum.

[Tookish_Traveler]

Yea. I love it when the stores moves stuff around. The one I used recently rearranged the produce section. I wander around in circles until I find what I want.




OOooo. Spiffin' up the forums, eh?

Thanks for the heads up, Calma.

[notlistening]

Snow? In April? Craziness!

I think Autumn has finally arrived down under. Hoping it stays. Sick of summer.

[Tookish_Traveler]

Tis downright unnatural here in USDA zone 6.

I need a new pirate pic.


hmmmm...

Saved a cat tonight.

I'll post a longer version over in the cat guild, but the short version is: driving to town saw a cat in a yard with a can on it's head. I couldn't pull it off, but found I had needle nose pliers in my car and crimped the sharp edge until kitty was free. Poor baby.

[Tookish_Traveler]

Good job, Iris! Poor kitty. Another friend of mine helped a cat like that once.

Pirates aren't just for movies. Books! We need books!!!

Pirate novels

Just got back home. Tired. Feet sore & tired. Finally sit down. Pick up the remote. See whats on. Now I know there are angels for lo and behold The first strands
of A Hard Days Night is what I hear. TCM is playing the movie right now !

[Calma]

"All my lovin' I will send to you
All my lovin' Darlin' I'll be true"

[Ninui]

"Wo wo I.... should have known better with a girl like you
That I would love everything you do
And I do. Hey hey hey and I do .......

[Tookish_Traveler]

hee. The Beatles.
I distinctly remember, when I was about 6 years old, an occasion when a buddy and I were swinging on a neighbor's swingset and singing "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" at the top of our lungs.



Good times.

[Ninui]

From one of the best pirate films from the way back machine. Calma, you should like this one.

Errol Flynn....

[Tookish_Traveler]

Smelling salts! We need them to get Calma out of her swoon!

[notlistening]

How about smelling something nice like coffee beans?

[Tookish_Traveler]

Do pirates drink coffee?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[Calma]

They probably do, but there has to be a lot of rum in it.

Well, got the tomatoes planted today.
Also got some pansies planted in my hanging pot.

[Ninui]

Always try to catch this one whenever TCM shows it,(which isn't very often). Guess I better check out Amazon

And my favorite line from Pirates of the Caribbean

[Tookish_Traveler]

Indeed.

Just why IS the rum always gone?????


*sends for more rum*

[notlistening]

You will feel like drinking some rum to numb the pain after seeing Avengers: Infinity Wars!

Oh my!!!!!! no spoilers (as it hasn't opened everywhere yet) but damn, so much carnage and death!! From the get go, its full speed ahead and the hits and quips just keep on coming. You will leave the cinema in shock.

The movie is about 2.40mins + ads. The bit at the end is important so stay if you can.

[Tookish_Traveler]

So, is that a 5 star or a 1 star review, nl??????



And to answer the coffee question from the other day:

[notlistening]

I'd give the movie a solid 4/5. Funny, sad, chaos. Thanos has a lot to answer for...

on a happier note, this looks like fun. Just depends if I can afford the 50 pound price ticket for an afternoon tea. My friend and I were going to do high tea but it was 29 pounds, which is still a lot for a high tea.

[Tookish_Traveler]

ooOOOOO.

I'm pretty sure you're paying for the ambiance there, nl.

Looks lovely.

[Calma]

nl, that looks like a great time.


Just hanging out today.
Nothing going on and it's raining again.
The baseball game's about to start anyway
So I'm not totally bored.

Have a great weekend.

Later...

[notlistening]

WE are booking the HP afternoon tea today. Should be fun. And most high teas in London cost upwards of 30 pounds + depending on the hotel.

Last night I went with my brothers family to watch cars race around dirt tracks. Not that exciting for me but the kids liked it and Vince enjoyed the carnage of the demolition derby at the end. I think he'd enjoy Nascar in the US.

[Calma]

Anyone hear how heliona is doing?
Just wondering if she, Wilko and the baby are doing well.
Probably not getting a lot of sleep, but I hope all is well with them.
