I Find It Fascinating....

[gness]

....when I meet someone who is the double of someone I know.......then I watch her....
She moves and gesticulates in exactly the same way...the laugh is the same....

Then she speaks to me and the accent is so recognisable.....

So, folks....whatever she may tell us.....Minty works in a bar in Portugal!

[murraymints]

bit of a tricky when pulling up hoodie zip !! ouch !!....PANCHO..shut yer beak !!!

[Tilly2]

His name is Poncho!
Poor parrot.

[murraymints]

that might be why he's ignoring me !!

[gness]

Poncho....Pancho.....I don't really care......got me cursed by the nuns whatever he's called..... :-(

[murraymints]

bless you my child...there...all better .."yoo is forgived" !!!

[gness]

Oh heck....I don't have to say five Hail Marys, do I?..... :-(

[Tilly2]

Minty, no wonder you are worn out. That commute to Portugal, every day, must take it out of you.

[murraymints]

A whole rosary is required to pacify the pingwings !!

It does Tilly....but sometimes I just kip in the cellar wi the empties...they seem to multiply somehow..

[gness]

Pah! They can stay unpacified then....do you know how long a whole Rosary takes?....And then you drop the beads half way through and have to start again.....blow that!....xx

I have enough trouble just remembering the sign of the cross ...

... wallet, watch, spectacles, etc

[Tilly2]

I had no idea that Poor Poncho was saying a rosary thingy. I thought he was just singing and flashing his tail.

[gness]

No, Tilly......I think that may be Dave........x

[murraymints]

poor Poncho is blameless all he did was sing a few Hail Marys !!... here boy ...hae a wee bite o' this haggis..!

[murraymints]

Dave flashed his tail ? EEK !!

[Tilly2]

It was a lovely tail......all green and fluffy.

[gness]

You think that's bad, Minty.....you wait til you hear him sing!!!!!!

[murraymints]

and he has the cheek to slate my pretty boy Poncho !!..Green tail...antibiotics for you Dave !!
