In my days of gainful employment
« on: December 28, 2007, 02:24:11 PM »
I would oft while away a boring meeting (before I learned how to avoid them and became a better person for it) by casting the company pantomime out of my fellow employees.
The same might well work here.

So I nominate myself as the Narrator

Nick can be Buttons ~ the loveable but incapable joker.
Wenchy as Principle Boy ~ Prince Charming (Lots of leg on show and some thigh slapping in that part).
Barman just has to be ~ Baron Hardup
Miss D ~ Cinderella
Berek & Growler ~ The Ugly Sisters
Darwin I think is a natural for ~ Widow Twanky
TMR ~ Wishy Washy the laundry boy
LandLady ~ The Good Fairy
Pussy Galore will need to supply her own Boots
Tinkerbell can do LL's stunts for her as flying about the stage on a wire might just be asking too much of her.

Now we need a villain  rubschin:  Pity CJ isn't around but perhaps we could persuade Uncle Mort to take the part.

The rest of you ~ bring your own tights ~ you're all in the chorus.

With the right kind of lamp and some gentle persuasion (and a good dollop of KY) I suppose it might be achieved.  rubschin:
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!

You are taking the piss aren't you?

Your next answer may decide whether or not an "accidental" air strike hits parts of Wales...

Wishy Washy = Loveable, fast talking son of Widow Twankey .... tends to steal the show by talking the piss out of the wicked wizard (His Uncle) and his mother (Widow Twankey) The Kids love him.

Not really ~ just passing the time away on a boring wet afternoon whilst the children watch a James Bond movie in the other room.

But you will note, if you follow the link, that it is one of the Principle Parts. Many a famous actor has played the part in the past.

Apologies Snoops, my knowledge of Panto is scant - we were only allowed to go to Lewes on 5th November and watch effigies of the Pope being toasted, which, in itself, was a riotous laugh. It's just the moniker "Wishy washy" - most of the poor unfortunates that know me, know me as a rabid, opinionated, hates-everything, to the right of Ghengis Khan, growling tinderbox that has a very short fuse...

But they all love me  cloud9:

I love you too, like I loved my first Beagle. Even if he did only have one bollock and used to roll in fox's poo regularly... cloud9:
