dex Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Going on, Why have you brought me here, I can see a big wheel, a lot of stalls full of either tat or beer/cider or pretzels or hotdogs. Where am I, I'm just a poor yokel not used to the crowds and noise.

poppy Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 he's really quite shy. Poppy on the other hand, has no difficulty understanding Itsme as she's watched plenty of TV programmes made in Yorkshire including All Creatures Great and Small, The Last of the Summer Wine, Emmerdale and Open All Hours. She can 'eeh up' and 'eeh by gum' with the best of them. She's not too sure about Dex though. What is a Birmingham accent like??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppy Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Unfortunately, it had been lurking in the bottom of Dex's bag for some time and had now developed it's own little ecosystem. It sported some multi-hued hairy molds that would have interested the most ardent of mycologists. Not to be deterred by these minor considerations, Dex pinned Poppy's arms behind her whilst Itsme stuffed Simmel Cake with great enthusiasm down her throat. Not surprisingly really, Poppy .............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
