Re: 1000 Post Club

LOL, no, that's true, but if I had I'd probably have tried to make tea with the ice cube tray afterwards

Re: 1000 Post Club

That's not how you make iced tea, you know.


* Sends 4000-club's chief butler to fetch some iced tea. *

There are advantages to having only a few members in here, you know.

"Ringfenced" - put aside to pay for one specific purpose...

Special implication for you, though, because of the Precious...



Wrinkly? Better than being small, with a scrawny neck, soft clammy fingers and six teeth...

Re: 1000 Post Club

I knew this "my club is bigger than yours" business would lead to trouble and name calling.

Sorry for the confusion Gollum.

I dread to think what regions your confusion might have had you thinking.

Mordor perhaps, or the netherworld

No problem Pyan and EndIsNigh. It's not an expression I was familiar with and I had no pre-conceived ideas of what it may mean, hence the query.

Now being small and agile means I can evade those slime-infested tentacles of yours...

Hurry up Py! It's getting lonely here already and I'm starting to get full on all this chocolate gateaux and don perignon. Sometimes life really sucks!....

Re: 1000 Post Club

I thought "Ringfenced" was some kind of uber pun or realignment of letters or something, beyond my limited mental capacities. I did not consider that it might be an actual word.

Re: 1000 Post Club

I'm amazed the word, ringfenced, is not more widely known.

What do you folk use in its place? Some strange variation on hypothecated?

Re: 1000 Post Club

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

So this is what it looks like in here! (sounds of Manilow's "Looks Like We Made It", played at slow speed echo in the background...).

Any of that Iced Tea left? Thanks for space on the new coat rack, Grim!

Re: 1000 Post Club

"Ringfenced" and "snag". In three years, I've learned two new words. This place just gets better and better

Welcome, Clansman, pull up a sofa and help yourself to the choccy biccies ... I'm afraid the 2000 Post Club seems to have nicked all our doilies, though. The champagne should be nicely chilled, though, if no one's nicked our fridge, too *grrrr*

Re: 1000 Post Club

Your quite welcome to a few of our honey-roasted almonds if you don't mind sharing some of your choc-mint ice cream

Cheezie whatsits? What are they Inter?

I hope you are not intending on pilfering in the 3000 club
