So with Midden calling me a piece of furniture, I'm still confused. Especially the "amour" part. I watched a movie once where the Marquis DeSade was in love with a piece of furniture and it didn't turn out so well for the ...um... anything.

So, who's putting up the poll?? Midden? Frank? Moofster?
(Maybe we need to say that the winner has to put up the poll the following week? :) )
 
Mai oui, jai le petit pume. I'll hoisten the poll. I can also stretch it a bit to squeeze in le grand bonus drabbles.

If I get the aye aye from above :rolleyes:

So question is, as this is a special week (Simoof picked a sensible topic) should the poll be special too? A la vingt-quatre choix

Have you clicked on that link, Midden?

Cuz it does funny things on this side of the pond....


EDIT: Ah, that's why. You dropped the "t". Is that a Scottish thing? I thought you Scots liked your "t"s?

My favourite label for my spaghetti-based programming is GOTHERE which can stand for GO THERE for goto commands and GOT HERE as the label to mark the destination.

Frank, so easily amused
 
Erik Marcaigh, being a Colonial, never heard of the "Great Consonant Heist". The English Northerners with t' flat vowels and t' black puddings so black even t' white bits ur black: they used up all their "t"s by saying "t'" instead of saying "the". They sneaked over Hadrian's Wall and stole all the "t"s from Scotland.

And tha's why the Scots havnae go' any "t"s left fur their sen'ences.
 
It was good to see this morning that the 20 poll limit has been raised to include those late drabbles - including mine :) I thought the boat had long gone...

btw.. all those nice things I said about your Drabble? Seeing as they made it into the competition I am no longer legally obliged to say that they would have definitely won if they'd been entered, and so I take those comments back.
 
Yay I won!!!!!

Next weeks topic very simple, very topical and Really in your face...........

A Call to Arms

The urchin sat, huddled in blankets on the street corner. She held her grimy hands out, begging for scraps of anything. When you had nothing, then anything put you in a better place.

The twin suns of Jizmungus beat down on her much like the way society had beaten down on her parents. Taken as slaves, she was left to fend for herself. That witch had no need for almost 3 million slaves, much less her two parents.

Someone tossed a metal mug near her. She knew what to do to free her parents. She ran, screaming, "For the mug!!!"
