Patti and Simon's dinner conversation

[Patti (baconater)]

I've been informed that Simon has booked our table for Christmas Eve dinner.

I'm afraid we'll be sitting there all evening in awkward silence though.

Any topics the group think we should discuss?

[D.D. Chant]

How to keep DeeDee in brownies and fluffy pillows???

[Simon (Highwayman)]

"awkward silence"..... Alcoholic stupor more like.

[Patti (baconater)]

Naw that'll be after dinner.

We should have at least an hour of coherence.

Well, you do insist on sharing!

I'm glad you're feeling a bit better today. :)

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

I would think Patti and awkward silences are total strangers...

Thanks Peppermint P.! xxx

[Patti (baconater)]

See? I can do silence!

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

yes, but was that awkward?

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Silence keeps well away from Patti. It feels awkward around her. I have some new ear defenders.

[Patti (baconater)]

You'll hang off my every word!

[Simon (Highwayman)]

I seem to remember last year hanging was on my mind by the end of the evening

[Patti (baconater)]

You remember the end of the evening??

That's unusual.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

There are always happy exceptions.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

You're lucky Geoff you accidentally organised your get together after Patti was safely out of the country.

[Patti (baconater)]

No idea why he chose B'wade though.

The spiritual home of the group. In hundreds of years time people will pilgrimage to the pheasant.

[Jay-me (Janet)]

Where is this Biggleswade place then????

[Patti (baconater)]

And throw rocks at it.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

*shock*

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Its down the road from Milton Keynes.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Or to be more precise... Milton Keynes is down the road from biggleswade. :-)

[Simon (Highwayman)]

The great metropolis of biggleswade. We have six benches in the market square.

[Lorraine]

Right next year we're having a group meeting for new years eve ! And it'll be so noisy that there won't be any fears about silence !

[Patti (baconater)]

Six???

When did they upgrade?

[Simon (Highwayman)]

The village idiots guild donated. We just didn't have the bench capacity.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

WHich bench do you sit on?

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Too cold for me. I am retained by the pheasant.

[D.D. Chant]

I only sit on benches with fluffy pillows...

I might not be able to come.

[Will]

Last time I drove through Biggleswade, I got lost on the way out.

Even though I used to have an office there.

[Patti (baconater)]

It's in the middle of a vortex, Will.

Sucks you in and doesn't let you leave.

Dave and I have booked a room at the Hotel California. Just down the street from the Pheasant.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Will you still be there when Geoff and I arrive next Sunday?

[Patti (baconater)]

I've been told we can check out anytime we like.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

But can you leave?

[Will]

Oh, I know the Pheasant, all right....

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

are there lots of pluckers there?

[Patti (baconater)]

It smells funny, doesn't it Will?

[Will]

And some of the clientele are a bit suspect too

[Patti (baconater)]

You're a master of understatement, Will my man.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Simon fits right in there...

[Will]

I'm gaining a whole new perspective on Simon then

[Patti (baconater)]

Fits in???

The bar has his elbow grooves in it!

[Philip (sarah)]

A visit to The Pheasant is on my 'bucket list';@)!

neither am I, it's a nice picture and I'm sure it's one I can use :-)

[Will]

Do you think we should give Patti a credit for it?

I'm thinking it might even be possible to work her into a book and have her say it!
I have a nightclub singer who needs and extra line and a new name wouldn't hurt her :-)

[Patti (baconater)]

Hmmm. I can't carry a tune in a bucket!

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Patti is getting about a bit - thats 3 authors writing about her now!
