I'm hoping that I'll get to meet some of you MLU-ers there ... as it appears that I'll be going. After 2 years plus ... it would be great to put faces and voices to the names and MLU conversations in here.

More like incoming wounded

or wounding???

SO ... being awfully close to Acton means I get to practice my cast-iron-fling-thing?

Geoff informs me that you're indeed close to Acton ... I hope I'll get the pleasure of meeting you Chris ... and look forward to meeting and greeting any other MLU-ers then. Master Skagman survived ... although I don't know how well he survived the first meeting with the Little Miss Ma

but, since I left the frying pan behind, he still breathes, and survives to tell....although you have been awfully quiet about this milestone event Master Skagman .... what say you?

(pssst... Jon ... sorry I didn't finish shovelling the driveway for you. I had to throw some snowballs at the Master Sunray smoking on the deck ... but next time, haul out the snowblower and I'll do the whole driveway and the yard too!!!

Master Sunray is currently yelling at me "KARMEN .... ARE YOU WRITING A BOOK???? WHAT are you writing? WOMAN.... STFU!"

Now I ask you-all ... is that any way to talk to a lady??? I think NOT!

MA

STFU and ends!

Tell me, are you any good with handling disappointments?

Well Master Head-In-The-Clouds-Dutch-Boy-Hanno-Oh-You-

-You ... DEPENDS on the disappointment, eh? Are you trying to warn ME about the MLU-ers or trying to instigate a MA

ROAST?

Speaking of the devilish

details. Are the start/finish times decided upon? Two logical guesstimates: 9-5 pm? 12-6 pm?

chris vickery · #10 19-01-05, 00:14

Karmen, I will indeed be there and do look forward to meeting you. I try to attend and support all the local OMVA functions. It is a good to to meet people and put faces to the names.

Good stuff then Chris ... if I'm there I'll get Sunray to introduce me to you and any other MLU-ers in attendance. Again ... I DO look forward to this too.

Tboss, if you'll take a minute and go back to my posting that started this thread, you'll see that the times are 8:30-1:00ish.

So much for logical deduction, I'd say.

It's going to be a lot of fun in Acton

Okay okay .... I hope to see a list of MLU-ers who will be at this ACTON swap meet ...

Will YOU be there?

MA

wants to know

(frying pan will remain at home in the kitchen but please folks, when in Acton, don't make me have to buy one special

) ... I'll ask Rupert if I can bring the sten just in case though!)

Now why did I NOT comment on this before? Actually life with the Sunray makes for much fun and giggles, and education. I learn something(s) new every day ... stories and history. Now he's starting to select books which he tucks into me wee bittie hands ... I fear me wee beedy eyes will fall out of their wee sockets soon

As to surviving a day with any MLU'er because I do great with the Master Hisself ... well ... time, as they say, shall tell. Depends on the MLU'er and if they are equipped with their own frying pan!

(be quiet HBM-O old fart

)

PS and FYI to All: Master Sunray has me lifting weights to build my frying pan swing-fling powers ... says I'll be "good to go" to "CARRY ON" don't you know"

HAN-OH-OH my Dutch-Tall-Boy friend, after "observation" of some of today posts in Sargeants Mess by certain old farts having a hayday (disobedient old farts in their undisciplined second childhood phase) I have gone shopping this morning to take along some extra frying pans as I'm sure the one I have will not be enough to help them behave with proper social ettitquette out in public. So ... you with your head-in-the-clouds, I shall heed your earlier warning and attend this little gathering well-armed and hypervigilant to any misbehaviors and attempts at heckles and harrassment towards me wee self and the wee Jiferoo too ... (I must stand up for him too
