Good night Barbra - sleep well.

Allan - glad you have found a use for your tunnel!

Oh dear Allan is going to spit his dummy out.

Of course you are a good person Allan, there, there, virtual pat on the head...
(The pat had a lower case letter, before you make any jokes)

Sorry - that was my itchy trigger finger - thinking of Allan.

Allan

Allan Report 9 Nov 2009 22:06

Nope, it's not working!

I'm going to sit in the tunnel and sulk

Tec,
Your Nun story was very funny!

Allan

Allan Report 9 Nov 2009 22:12

Well thank you, Berona, but I can still escape via the other end!

Ladies - are you taking advantage of Allan again?

Berona,
I do believe I haven't said Good Morning to you, sorry.
Did you ever get away on your drive yesterday?

Too late Allan - we've blocked the other end up.

Tec - I came home via Panama, then a different ship from Auckland to Sydney. First night out, eight nuns filled the table next to mine. Next morning, there were only six nuns there - lunch time, 3, and by evening, only Mother Superior on her own.

This continued for the entire journey, with the table steward standing beside her, waiting on her only, and looking thoroughly bored, until we docked in Sydney early in the morning...Suddenly, we had eight of them again at breakfast.

I saw the Mother Superior attempt to tip the waiter, but he was unable to take it and made her take it back.

Berona,
Reading your story there was an Australian mini series about Nuns. It was on about 15 years ago. I can't remember what it was called.

Berona

Berona Report 9 Nov 2009 22:26

Yes Tec - I had a lovely drive. Drove steadily for about an hour or more and cleared my conscience regarding my car. I would prefer to drive out in the country - but once I get out past the concrete jungle, it's quite nice our where the small acreages are - market gardens, etc.

Tec, I would never take advantage of Allan, I am not that sort of woman.

Like Berona, I am a lady!

I am off to spend some quality time annoying OH.

Be good and don't let Allan suffocate in the tunnel

Tecwyn Report 9 Nov 2009 22:27

Berona,
Maybe those nuns were lost, and the others looking for them LOL

I've noticed they are not good sailors,

That wasn't Brides of Christ, was it Pat? I didn't watch it myself, but it had a good write-up.

Goodnight Linda. Sleep tight.
