ENGLAND 119 - A place to waste...er...make good use of our time.......

Catherine opens ENGLAND’s curtains to discover that it’s still dark outside, and ventures forth in solitary doggydom....... Elb awakes to discover Catherine has left six parcels of WOOT for her, and isn’t alone after all, as Euphemia drags herself into BC and adds her WOOTs to the pile..... Catherine returns after handbags at dawn doggy-style, and the coven get down to the serious business of being silly.... Euphemia awaits the awakening of the Incredible Sulk, Elb ejects One-Crutch BabyElb for work, and Catherine times her routine to get more BC time... Grumpy Elb grumbles about too much talking behind her back, while Catherine pimps a video from Saturday’s Anatomy Class on the KT, and Euphemia WOOTs to be a witch. Elb makes like a panda - eats, shoots and leaves, and Catherine becomes a dropout.

Sparkle catches up with camera-loving Mini-Marek and the fashion show, and Jo bounces in, one proud Mama of her daughter’s most excellent exam results....... Miss Hyde makes a welcome return, and has a darned good WOOT for Elb’s 6K and Ellis’ results, while Jo goes ‘Natural’ with big-time droolage...... Still-snotty Vanessa joins Jo and Em for lunch, and Jo begins the birthday celebrations for Delanie! Speaking of the Horny Beast, Del appears as if summoned, and endures a riot of multi-coloured dancing smilies, before adding some of her own for belated birthdays..... Sparkle, Goffy, Lady Claire and Catherine add their good wishes as Del heads out for a “ME” day, and Els is cheerier thanks to yet more Depp.... Lady Claire adds a PS I Love You to her post, and Gusti makes a rare (these days) appearance, to apologise unnecessarily for non-attendance....

Euphemia has a trying day - she tries to do the washing, the ironing and hoovering, but fails...... Elb has one of ‘those’ days at work, and consoles herself with a portion of ‘Casanova’ and chips, while Gusti can’t settle with Gerry, and can’t work either! She hopes Mini-Marek is coming to Vienna with Elb, and encourages her to buy yet more accessories for the Micro-Marek....... Famous last words Catherine tells Elb ENGLAND has been quiet, so Abridging should be a doddle....then everyone piles in......... Gusti needs more hours in the day while Goffy adds WOOTs for Elb’s 6000th and Jo’s sprog’s success. Cathy adds to the piles for Elb and Del, Euphemia treads carefully for fear of snails, and gets her fingers burned by molesting chickens ahead of schedule.......Elb thanks all for her WOOTs, while Jo thanks all for theirs on sprog’s behalf, and Euphemia’s old git is still old and still a git..... Vanessa suggests a helpful smack for hubby, but Euph declines as she’d have to get too close, and Cathy gets a stiff one........ Elb complains about her inconsiderate sprog, and suggests Left Luggage Lockers where all ENGLAND’s excess baggage can be dumped, beginning with thoughtless offspring....... Newbie DandieMacG lurks at the back before being welcomed to ENGLAND, Sparkle gets crafty over her grandparents’ long stretch, and Eeyore has a WOOTfest for 6K, exam success and the return of her cycle! Tina ponders prizes, absent-minded Cathy gets to the PS, but forgets what it is, and Catherine’s Mr Grumpy is excused residency in Left Luggage as he has a doctor’s note........ Dandie is absorbed by ENGLAND, and Goffy loses track of time with Jamie, and offers advice to Catherine regarding her Mr Grumpy - try tweaking her brightness and contrast......

Elb relays a message from the Intrepid Travelling Yorkie who that afternoon has set sail from Helsinki for Russia, after forcing hubby to endure a double dose of Phanty....... The Yorkies carry on cruising and it’s decided that all keys for Left Luggage Lockers should be lost once contents are secure..... Eeyore is absorbed with Jamie on the bus, and Elb adds Gusti’s birthday to the list, because it’s the same as hers. She ensures that everyone notices, and ENGLAND WOOT for Eeyore’s period! Euphemia’s locker gets filled up fast, while Vanessa’s son earns a place for going AWOL with her POTO disc, and Elb thanks Tina for leftover Tennant-Tottiness...... Both Jo and Euphemia fancy a large portion, Cathy bungs her ex in the lockers, and Elb adds her evil sister, but only after she’s had Blackpool....... Jo’s marbles go AWOL, while Vanessa squeezes her entire family plus pets AND computer in her locker. Dandie lobs a printer into hers and Eeyore’s customers are locked up too. Goffy is cheered up by ENGLAND and abandons hubby for Jamie in bed...... Euphemia goes to Spells R’Us for ingredients for tomorrow’s Breakfast Coven, and Jo turns furry animals into fast food, while Elb gets frightened by mosquitoes invading her Photobucket. They are quickly shut into the lockers. Eeyore beats Elb to issuing an End of Thread Alert early after last night’s over-run, but Elb has a new thread already under way and calls for ENGLAND to abandon thread at 300.....

ENGLAND obediently jump at the appropriate moment, landing in ENGLAND 120 - Room A-Plenty at the BritTart Inn! ENGLAND sit on Gerry’s lap and tell him all about it., flirting outrageously, but to no avail, and they all go to bed Gerryless........ Jo tidies up and locks ENGLAND’s door for the night, leaving security in Sweaty Frank’s safe hands.....
