How many people have contributed to it?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:14, Reply)

Well i thought it would be nice for each child and grandchild to share one memory of him
if I agreed to deliver it, structure it, and do his life story.
So... 11 people possibly. Probably only 10. Our Little Tony doesn't speak.

Maybe for 'our tone'
You could let your Grand father speak (as it were)?

Did he ever say how proud he was of little Tone? What a belter he was or anything like that? Maybe your grand-father would like the last word?

I have a story in reserve.
Our Little Tony used to fall asleep al the time, and have bizarre dreams. He was also terrified of the PG Tips chimps.
One night he tried to climb out of the window in his sleep screaming "The monkey's have got me grandad!!"
As in 'my grandad'.

Will you use the classic Liverpool gag
Of, 'our grandad is up there' (you look up) and then tell the congregation, 'no, not in heaven, he's nicking the lead off the roof!'

Well I hope it's a joke that doesn't get made for many a year.
Had a good day?

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:39, Reply)

I'm frazzled but most of the work is done
Just pulling together a presentation that my boss will have to do in my absence and practising the eulogy.
You?

I'm okay
still feel rather tender after the smoothie debacle. Sorry to hear about your grandfather.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:44, Reply)

He's at rest and he had a colourful life
So I'm glad for him.
Smoothie?
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:45, Reply)

I drank a few sips of orange and mango smoothie
and my face went all itchy and sore. Looked on the back and it was mostly apple and banana (both of which I'm intolerant too)

eeeeeek!

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:48, Reply)

not as bad as allergic thankfully
apple/banana/pear generally just make me itch and go a bit red and spotty. Fish/eggs/peanuts pretty much kill me off

Won't your mum be arriving in 15 minutes?
TIDY UP!
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:47, Reply)

I have!
I've tidied up loads, and bought some chicken and chorizo which I have put on small skewers, got soup and the rest of the wholemeal pittas ready to be microwaved, and even some paper plates.

Hide the Super Noodles!

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:50, Reply)

In a drawer haha
and all the library books piled up, so it looks busy
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:50, Reply)

Don't leave the Super Noodles too well hidden
Otherwise she won't lavish a nice meal on you!
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 18 Nov 2010, 23:56, Reply)

This is an excellent idea
I might pitifully cough as well

This is quite far to the right of the screen isn't it?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 19 Nov 2010, 0:00, Reply)

The laptop my brother lent me
has a massive screen. But we can move it down if you want
