Title: VP Blackout - to do list
Post by: Miss Demeanour on May 13, 2009, 04:55:06 PM
Heaven forbid that we experience another lapse like the past few days but a contingency plan needs to be drawn up in case of emergencies.

GOS - you need to get this pub band organised pronto. Available for all occasions but especially for cheering up the patrons during Easyspace raids

Nick - you need to make a long life cake for when the rations are required

Wenchy - you will need to decorate the venue to cheer us up a bit

DS - you can be in charge of carpet time ( story telling in the corner )  - The Enormous Turnip etc

Pastis - you can organise the exercise for the camp to stop them going stir crazy

Snoops - you can provide pillows ( courtesy of Mrs S (2) - hopefully ) and teach us practical arts

Tel / TMR - you can bring the computer games and darts board

Any other requirements ????

Indeed...

I had a list that I created the last time I did some werk on the bar but I've since deleted it...

How about here  (http://www.cyprus-forum.com/index.php)as a meeting point?

We can easily start a thread there in case of emergency....

Let's not make too many plans ~ tempting fate and all that. When If the need should arise emails can be sent giving the rendezvous.

Ahh here you all are, GOS reporting for duty, I have had some weird experiences with trying to log in, I was directed to a porn site, which I found very hard (I should be so lucky) to get out of, then I had a pop-up from Microsoft(?) telling me there was a trojan on my system and then telling  me I had to download a programme to get rid of it. I declined the offer and only the use of alt+ctlr+delete got me away from the offending advisory.

Anyhoo I got a few guys from the band  together and we have been jamming in the smoking pagoda outside waiting for the doors to open again.. pint of lager please BM

I suspect it was simply a play on the surname ~ if this helps:
Quote
Rip Torn was born Elmore Rual Torn, Jr. on February 6, 1931 in Temple, Texas. "Rip" is a family name, taken by generations of Torn men and bestowed on Elmore by his father, who was also called "Rip.

The Mormon thing of calling every bloke "Elder" is equally confusing.

Good job the cabbie doesn't often have to stick his head in the Public bar of the Tabernacle Arms and shout "Taxi for Elder?"
