Animal (or The Cookie Monster) - Orcs


I Probably flit between the two depending on whats rattled my cage.

You have fitted in perfectly well, and your observations are probably correct.

The comment about others being more intelligent is possibly incorrect . We have  just  had 25 extra years to become "more nerdy" ;)
The cynics are right nine times out of ten. -Mencken, H. L.

Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but of playing a poor hand well. - Robert Louis Stevenson

I wouldn't try too hard if I were you. I'm English, been wargaming for forty-five years and some of the references even leave me scratching my head in confusion. I'm sure it's all part of the Great Plan.

If you want pics of what some of the members really look like......
I'll wait for the movie.  :D

Incidently mentioning my name is Bill is no problem (as you said I recently used it in a post)  - if you dig around on my blog it's buried in the details somewhere  :)

The blog might also be where Westie came up with a clergy connection for me.  ;)

Black Adder? Mr Bean methinks!! 
I was thinking season three. Where Bean often succeeds by chance and the perfect conjunction of natural forces, Edmund Blackadder succeeds by knowledge and wit.  :)

Picturing you as .... Discworld's Two-Flower.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner!  :)

Can I be Terry Thomas or Sid James please ;)

RMmm, rather, yakyak-yak-yak!

Given the context I assume you mean the actor and not the rocker.
So, yes, Terry Thomas (   J. Algernon Hawthorne in It's a Mad4world]
which would naturally lead to Mad Lemmy being Johnathan Winter's Lenny Pike in the same movie!

It was Tuesday.....For some reason, that's the one day of the week I really have problems with......
A Tuesday always feels as though it should be Wednesday.......I mean....Why ?????.......Dribble, dribble, dribble.

And if Westie's talking about the Muppets......I'm definitely 'Animal'.  :D

Though not the sort of face I use, if the 'trespasser' is carrying a shotgun.....(That's only happened once, though.)

Meanwhile, in an attempt to divert Phil's attention so he forgets where's he's saved his photos, here are another esteemed member of the forum and an internationally renowned bassist famous for his mutton chops!

You're safe at the moment, Meirion......

I THINK the Mother In Law is being returned by the 'hopspittal' this afternoon..... (They've just discovered she has got a urinary infection....which is why she won't bloody drink anything !)
If I'm awol for a few days.........

(Is that really Will ?.....From his previous photo's, I'd never have guessed.)
