Can I just put mine in the window until I'm drunk enough to wear it?

How drunk is drunk enough, I wonder!

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 07 Oct 2004, 22:06

Hey, I wore mine in broad daylight today, stone-cold sober. Bear in mind that there are only 22 of these Tshirts in existence so you have a pretty exclusive fashion item here. They make millions of these crappy designer logo things, but we're talking 22 in the whole world! Wear it with pride!

Yes, Sir!!

But not too much pride, lest my bosom swell to the point where a "medium" would no longer fit.

You'll know when you see it propping up the window of the chippy!

Bob, did I get my order in too late? I ordered a large t-shirt on the 18th Sep but when I went to the library today to pick it up, my name wasn't on the list

.

DG, I'm really sorry! I just checked my order list and somehow I seem to have missed your name off.

Don't worry though. Leave it with me and I'm sure I can sort something out.

DG · Post by DG » 08 Oct 2004, 18:52

Thanks, Bob!

Don't worry too much if it's a problem.

I whispered my request to the lovely woman this afternoon, and she nodded knowingly, asked my name, and sidled off to the secret cupboard. Then she came back with a list in hand and said "Sorry, Miss ***, but the list he's given us doesn't have your name on it. It only has these." So then I had to admit what my username, much to her amusement!
And I came home to be told that at Ã‚Â£15 a shot I'd better wear it every flipping day without fail.

Going to pick it up tomorrow, now that I know you need to reveal your username it will be trenchcoat, dark shades and handing over a note written in newspaper cuttings with my demands

Only time when my name being my username is worthwhile!

Just picked up my T-shirt from the library, librarian asked for my name, "bearcub" I whispered, "Sorry, didn't catch that" she said. "bearcub" I repeated slightly louder to the amusement of the other 4/5 librarians watching

followed shortly by a sharp exit.

Bob said a week or so ago

looks like Poppy may have to pose topless as it were.

Maybe it's just as well the t-shirts were not available for our trip up the west coast - unless I was thinking of entering a wet t-shirt competition while on Skye!!! It was, shall we say, a trifle damp!

But we had a great time, though.

Ooooh! Sounds fabby - dish that dirt now.
She was sent away in disgrace wasn't she? Probably some torrid affair with the Laird's son or for getting drunk on a Sunday.

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 09 Oct 2004, 21:30

ecm - all I can say is that when I mentioned the family name an evil hush fell over the hotel bar and I was told on the QT by a local that all trace of the PO had been exorcised and erased. The PO is now a house ........ but ghostly goings on are heard.

We were then run out of town.....................

[But don't tell anyone else, 'cos I would not want to embarrass Marya now she is so well respected in the Brightons [but from what was written on the lavvie walls at the station at Morar.........................

she was a bit of a lass

]

Yours in all secrecy

Righty ho, Pops. Understood.

We'll say no more about it then.............for the moment.

ecm · Post by **ecm** » 09 Oct 2004, 22:31

There was a young lassie from Morar
Whose antics left locals in horror
In the train station lavvies
She was caught with 10 navvies
Whose lives were spent repenting in sorra.

A reminder to anyone who has still to collect their T-shirt that the Library is open today from 1pm until 5pm. Remember you will need a cheque for Ã‚Â£15 made payable to Portobello Community Council, and then you just need to whisper your username (or write it down if you prefer

)

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 11 Oct 2004, 19:23

Another reminder that as of a couple of hours ago there were still several T-shirts to be collected. We are short of one large size T-shirt as one had to be returned due to an imperfection, so it's first come first served on that size. The missing shirt, along with DG's will be ordered next time round.

We need a minimum order of 10 shirts to get more printed, so if anyone else wants one please get in touch.

The library are doing us a favour in handling the distribution and I don't want to mess them around, so please collect your order ASAP.

Post by **wangi** » 11 Oct 2004, 19:40

i'm not going to be able to collect till at least thursday... so I'm guessing i'll be the L going short!

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 11 Oct 2004, 19:50

Or I could deliver yours personally .

No, that's not fair. Wangi needs to experience the same embarrassment levels as the rest of us.

Don't worry about that ecm - I probably managed to make a bigger tit of myself.

Bob - I managed to pop in to the library tonight to pick the tshirt up... However sweating and dripping all over the place probably wasn't the best way to go about it! I should have taken you up on your offer!!

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 12 Oct 2004, 22:05

Well, I've got mine!

I think it's a perfect fit, and tones beautifully with the mask

There's something different about you since school days but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 12 Oct 2004, 22:43

Is it my waistline perhaps? You could certainly put more than a finger on that!
