Whopps, sorry about the erraadic spelling today!!

Explains the "B" in English! Very Happy

(I used to get "Bëes or "Seas" in English. Stories and poems = Ays - and the rest of the work I didn't do. My English teachers told me I had a "huge" talent, but I sure showed them!)

You, for sure, do seem the kind of person who would be simply awesome at English! I love reading your stories and poems Exclamation

I was just about to slip into my barrell for the night when I saw this and had to pop in to say CONGRATULATIONS TIN!!! cheers

Now no offence but I think I'll just haul my barrel up the tree tonight , just incase you wish to take the fiery chariot out for a spin your Maj.

(Blimey they grow up fast for immortals these Valinoreans- either that or they have to be several millenia old before they are allowed to sit their test- probably a good thing. I do hope Beren isn't licensed to drive too, with his brain he has hard enough time steering just himself about- bugger did I say that out loud?)

Congratulations! cheers

My state has a tiered system so while I can drive with very few restrictions, I still have to wait almost 18 months to have a full license.

You're lucky Beren won't isn't here yet, or you'd better hide in that tree!

What about me being back????
Well, I am! Since the picnic is only days away, I'm here to start to set up security!

I'm sure you won't be the least bit disappointed, your Majesty. It's going to be a party of special magnificence! Very Happy

Maybe. Spectacular disaster may also be on the cards! Maybe I should just have a drink and hope it all goes away? drunken

I hardly think so. Orwell has such confidence in you. Indeed, I suspect he's so excited that he's too hyped up to even post today. He's like a child in a candy shop of late, to judge from his PM's to me. I know you won't let him down! What a tragedy if you do. You mustn't, of course, feel any pressure, no, you're own creativity must not be curbed -- by outside pressure --:-Jane

by Pettytyrant101 Thu Aug 25, 2011 2:02 am

No not feeling under any pressure at all. drunken

Certainly not sitting up till all hours working on it, barely sleeping or fretting over it, not in the slightest... pale

Who needs sleep anyway? Its overrated and theres still nearly 60 hours left...oh bugger.

That's the ticket - Orwell will surely expect nothing less than an all out effort:-Jane

Don't run yourself ragged, Petty; better to have the party pushed back a bit than to have its very life and soul to tired to join in.

by Baingil Thu Aug 25, 2011 2:22 am

What Eldo said!

by Pettytyrant101 Thu Aug 25, 2011 2:25 am

I wouldn't dare disappoint. I might be a buckie-soaked Tyrant but I am a Tyrant of my word. {{wonder if anyone will believe that?}}

Oh, I have no doubt that you stand for things Petty, I just sometimes have doubts about what those things are. Razz

Given enough buckie I don't even manage the standing bit.

Laughing makes me less crabbit, to be sure: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star has been updated to be scientifically accurate. Very Happy

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
I know exactly what you are

Opaque ball of hot dense gas
Million times our planet's mass
Looking small because you're far
I know exactly what you are

Fusing atoms in your core
Hydrogen, helium, carbon and more
With such power you shine far
Twinkle twinkle little star

Classed by their spectroscopy
Oh, Be A Fine Girl Kiss Me
Bright when close and faint when far
I know exactly what you are

Smallest ones burn cool and slow
Still too hot to visit, though
Red stars dominate by far
Twinkle twinkle little star

Largest ones are hot and blue
Supernova when they're through
Then black hole or neutron star
I know exactly what you are

Our Sun's average as stars go
Formed 5 billion years ago
Halfway through its life so far
Twinkle twinkle little star

Forming from collapsing clouds
Cold and dusty gas enshrouds
Spinning, heating protostar
I know exactly what you are

Often forming multiply
Clusters bound by gravity
Open type or globular
Twinkle twinkle little star

Two hundred billion stars all stay
Bound up in the Milky Way
Dusty spiral with a bar
I know exactly what you are.

by Wisey Banks Thu Aug 25, 2011 3:16 am

Twinkle twnkle little car,
I see your headlights from afar,
Are you a BM or an Aldi,
A Chevrolet or Jaguar?
Twinkle twinkle little car,
How I wonder what brand you are.

Twinkle twinkle unknown car,
Can you even be called a 'little' car?
You may not be, no, not all,
Not if you're a Chev, or Jaguar!
Twinkle twinkle unknown sized car,
I'm keen to see what you really are.

Twinkle twinkle unknown car,
Here you come along the tar,
Oh you're a Volksy, oh how cute,
With your packrack on the roof,
Twinkle twinkle little Volksy,
Snug and reliable, and somewhat folksy.

"The Star that is the Volkswagon" by Hegel (postumously, from a dream he forgot)

Sorry Eldo- whilst yours is more informative Wisey wins on humour.

I guess I'm just a geek, then, but Wisey's is also great! Very Happy
