Too late: the prophets have settled in Seattle

OB You've confused the Prophets with pomme-frites. Actually I sent the prophets home with some pomme-frites and kept the profits for necessary and unnegotiable expenses.

<Gosh, I wish they hadn't cancelled Dirk Gently...>

Wow, can we really send MC all the way to Seattle just for some chips? It's April already and panto season will be creeping up on us again before we know it, can we really spare the time? Couldn't we just order some pizza?

Wonders why Egon wanted Dirk cancelled roughly.Eyes a big piece-a pizza pie and

gets on with panto script. (must stop talking like a treehouse habituee)

Does it start " on a village green" ? All pantos start on a village green.

Yep. Rosy maidens dancing on the village green talking about who is going to marry the handsome prince in the village CASTLE!*?! And the along come Skiddy and Egon "Comedy Duos a Speciality" Inc.

<We've got a gig?! Huzzah! I haven't done comedy since the Speckles Camel impersonations!

Panto needs a dancing hero.

someone like Rudolph in Giselle (London Colisseum roughly 1979)

perhaps to be played by 'Leapy Lee' interpreting 'Jumping Jack Flash'

if budget overruns we need to have a plan B so need to investigate cutting costs by employing one half of a comedy duo.

exits for a cup of tea, two sugars.

I hate to say it but behind us lurks something like a Committee,It can be the villain. Nobody pays for a Committee working.

one way and another, EVERYBODY pays for a committee working.

Hoe Hoe Hoe!!



That reminds me must try to get Rumbling Sid Rumpole as the comic head gardener at the village CASTLE

An answer to your PM Skids... of course I meant rambling Syd rumpo, but being a lady and always busy and in a hurry to get to my next task which at the moment in question was ironing pies for tea I did not check what I had wroted.


( also tried to send you a PM in reply but got really bogged down and then sidetracked by the intricasies of the operation and failed miserably)

MP3's good idea.

perhaps the principal boy could be Dame Celia Molestrangler?

and the panto cat could be Binky Huckerback?

I think they have done it many times, many, many times.

Just got back from Seattle with the chips. Who ordered what, again?

Did you bring the rock sole with genuine rock druid chips?

Last year I auditioned for the Villain But this year I reckon I'll have more fun

as the villein. OO ar, oo ar.

I wanted to audition for the role of village idiot but didn't pass the selection test

O.K. everybody - now we've had our chips perhpas we could all just seattle down and concentrate.

Bunyip, you were distinctly told you could have the role of village idiot, you seem to have misunderstood. Still that's the trouble with type casting, perhaps we should try Skype?

Which reminds me - this year's panto will have a live pod cast. I ordered a ton of plaster of Paris, well in advance, so no room forerror there then.

'a live pod' cast?

Does that mean the we will have orcas on stage?

Sounds as if we're going to have a whale of a time!


The orcas could play the part of the GIANT'S goldfish.
