Dave,
i would love to bake a celibration cake.
what will be your coat of arms?

I like 'em mid thigh length...with a liner to make it good for fall and
spring...and the arm length.....wait...I am on the wrong track here
aren't I?

hehehehehe

Thanks

Dave

Well Lyn, like he said : 'a broom and a spatula' look very dangereous
arms to me. Julia

Julia,
i have applied for the positon of cooking wench at the royal court.
i think you would make a lovely lady in waiting.
lyn.

should i start looking for replacement?

Oh, how clumsy of me.sorry,of course she is spoken for.but i am sure
there is a roll for us all.
it would be a sin not to be in.
lyn.

ho, wench, more wine. Kirk

hi,Kirk,are you the chaplain in the royal court?
lyn.
serving wench.

Do we even have a round table?

Dave

And I vote for kirk as our spiritual advisor/chaplain/whatever the heck
they were called back then.

I think it was called a bishop, but in light of all the "bishop stuff" if
you know what I mean, please bestow upon me a different title. I
think I would be sort of like Geoffrey Rush in ELIZABETH. Trusted
advisor, shrewed, astute psychometer always running. Of course, he
did have sex with the enemy before killing them. Maybe something
like "counselor to the court." Oh, one other thing, I don't do that
celibacy thing, so I need my ladies in waiting as well. Kirk

who would play the role of guinevere? I am a cancidate, ...... who will
be Lancelot? Or should I ask the King?

Good Idea, Be it known that you now have the role of Guinevere. Do
we have an applicant for Lancelot?

There can only be one.
i nominate: Sintubin.
lyn.
serving-wench.

you are right, Lynn. Even more so because Lancelot and Guinevere
had a sinful relationship.
