Mary, no "stereotyping" from me...just one finger.
I see.
You'd better take on the role of Snow Fairy if that's going to be your attitude! [-X

Fairy nuff, but we won't see any snow here for 6 months or so. 8-)

Not sure what my altitude [about 2300 ft] has to do with it...suppose it involves snow :?:

Must rest my typing finger now. I really must try to learn 'stereo-typing' [with 2 fingers].

Reverting to the original format, our next scene finds out hero, Aleighdin, at the behest of his nefarious uncle, once more commencing the vertiginous descent into the stygian darkness of the crevice formed several millennium in the past, by a shifting of tectonic plates due to volcanic pressures. Hyper ventilating as the claustrophobic atmosphere engulfed him he frantically scoured the impenetrable gloom for the merest glimpse of a secure foothold on the rugose surface of the centuries old magma.
With extreme trepidation the adventurous orphan tentatively stepped on to the rugged floor of the cavern, and with great diligence commenced to peruse the immensity of the vaulted space for evidence of objet d' art, as previously described by his corpulent relation.
In order to lighten the opaqueness of the cavern he somewhat calamitously ignited an ancient brass lamp discarded by some previous occupant. The resultant conflagration illuminated with significant clarity an agitated apparition clad in a voluminous garment of glittering ornateness, although due to the combustion, now distinctly singed around it's perimeter.

This monstrous creature could only be the mythical Genie of legend, and folklore, to whom magical powers were ascribed by historians and seers.

A thunderous command echoed around the capacious halls; " Fetch a bucket of water you dozy prat I'm on fire!"


To be continued, in the fullness of time.

Haven't heard that yet, jack...then again the Coventry Anti-Climax hasn't been started yet.

Bob, I decided not to whip over with a bucket of water...didn't want you to feel 'put out'.

I suppose that Australia can't afford a bucket of water, with all the drought you are having? So keep your kangaroo tied down, and your wobble board tuned, stop playing with your didgereedoo, and watch out for that boomerang returning.

May the corks on your hat always dangle.

Returning to the panto;

" Fetch a bucket of water you dozy prat I'm on fire!"

"Ee! Oop, auld lad thees, keepin t' place right nees and warm and a leetle fire niver 'urt any wun." Came the reply, his mixed parentage being obvious in his speech.

The overheated Genie hurled a final scathing epithet at the smirking Aleighdin before disappearing up his own spout in a cloud of smoke, deciding that he was safer in the lamp than exposed to the ridicule and dangers of the spotty youth outside.

While relieved at the absence of the fearsome Wraith, the weak kneed youngster now found himself once more in a total blackout, so impenetrable that he failed to see his own hand behind his back, and in a fit of panic wondered how on earth he would be able to scale the rocky heights to escape the cavern with just one hand. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Luckily the audience had the presence of mind to shout in chorus ...... It's behind you!

No trouble, jack. It means "Place of many crows, Place of many crows" in Stereo-Type.

Back at the Panto...I have thrown a bucket of water [with great gusto] over the back fence. Did it hit the mark :?:

Gusto [he's my Italian escape-artist friend] and I had a look over the fence, hoping not to see any sign of fire. All we saw was a couple of wet dogs, running away.

Now, back to Bob's floor mat...

It may look like just a floor mat ... Buts its a Magic Floor mat (The princess thinks its a carpet)She did come from the Cheap end of Barnet(a bit like Summer Bay really)
So she jumped on her Mat with sleeping bag in hand (cos she was still trying to wake it up) to find Alieghdin camped outside the Bat Cave
feeding two crows..two crows (stereo typing again)....
