[Peerie Maa]

That dang birthday boy is just to high falutin to show up in the Pub.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts. Kidos to Chris for the cake. I was at a colleagues barby consuming red wine, burgers and scallop kebabs, so was unable to drop in.

[ChrisBen]

Mornin Gareth, afternoon Nick. Coffee's hot, Guinness for lunch. Nice score on the chisels Nick.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Dang Oklahoma Wind, I really need some of that coffee. Mornin Chris,mornin Gareth .Hey Nick, hope ya didn't eat to much birthday cake.

[ChrisBen]

Mornin Bobby. We got half a day of sun today then rain till Sunday.

[Mrleft8]

Morning Bobby-san ((((((((((((GONNNNNNGGGGGGGG)))))))))))))))))))))) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Nick, Gareth, CB.... (Dare I say it?.....) Et Al!
Not raining today, so I thought I'd torch the burn pile..... But then the weather goons said it's sposed to blow up around 20MPH out of the south in an hour or so, and that'd put the barn in jeopardy..... So instead Maybe I'll go down to my father's house and help finish up the roof repair work..... But I really don't feel like climbing up on roofs today..... Maybe I'll look into replacing the broken hose bib by the garden..... Or I could tear up some rotted flooring and splice in new pieces.... Or I could dig up fountain grasses to transplant down at my father's..... And then there's the sofa that needs to be torn apart so that the garbage man can make it disappear...... Gosh this being broken down and unemployed sure is hard work.... I otter get a job.....

Moderation in everything Bobbys, that way the cherry sponge will last all the longer.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Moderation? I am not sure I know what that means. You can Tell that Lefty doesn't either. Hope ya had a good Birthday Nick.

[Mrleft8]

Moderation is a cross between "Mod" (ie: Modern) and "Generation".....

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Don't be workin to hard today Chris, gotta be rested up for the weekend.

[Mrleft8]

Hose bib and sofa destruction I think..... But I need another cuppa coffee, and some bacon and stuff before I make a final decision...... And maybe some toast with butter and strawberry jam......

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Slow and steady Lefty. Why do today, what ya can put off till tomorrow?

[Bobby of Tulsa]

[Mrleft8]

Because tomorrow is the day that I have to do other stuff......
Helper dude just called, and he's gonna be a little late, so that's the perfect reason not to go down to my father's just yet, anyway.....
Today we have personal sized pizzettes with a whole range of toppings, from fresh mozzarella, to pepperoni, to asparagus, to marinated mushrooms, to feta, to whole clams....
There's also a nice smoked pork shoulder, shredded and wallowing in a sweet and spicy barbecue sauce (AKA "Pulled Pork"), served on fresh kaiser rolls with fries and a pickle.
And there's deep fried Wahoo fingers, served with onion rings and coleslaw.
Special on tap: Jennings Cumberland Ale

Great to have choices, innit?

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Who is Wahoo, and why are you frying his fingers? I will have the pulled pork and a beer please.

[Mrleft8]

The pulled pork is exceptional today.... succulent, and smoky. Sweet without being cloying, and with a subtle, but insistent spicy heat that sort of slowly spreads across your tongue and up the insides of your cheeks..... And the beer is cold.... Not the way it'd be served where it was brewed, but not as cold as Budweasle would have to be to get me to drink it.....
Hose bib done (Which makes me wonder how long it'll be before it fails..... Waaaaaaaay too easy.....), sofa destruction, half done.... The borrowed sawzall battery was about tapped out.... So I'll go down to Dad's and see how it's going there.....

[Mrleft8]

Welllllll........... The underneath part of the rotten floor part was less hopeful than I'd hoped for..... I guess that 20 years ago someone saved about 50 cents on flashing, and now I'm having to deal with the results..... Now to tidy up the gaping hole in the floor before Carter gets home...... Aldo caught a tree frog and brought it in for me to see..... Very thoughtful of him..... At least it wasn't dead, or maimed, and I was able to set it free while Aldo was distracted by a bug.....

Did tequila delivery girl have fun on her cruise?

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Did tequila delivery girl have fun on her cruise?

Said she had a great time, the weather was good and she didn't get sea sick.

[Chip-skiff]

Got back from KC last night, after a long drive and some scary thunderstorms. Lightning blots that circled before touching down, which I might have seen once before. Ruby Dog was terrified.

Had some good BBQ and fried chicken. Spent most of the time helping Alpha Mom and fixing stuff in her house, with a bare minimum toolkit. The Wolf Goddess is staying another week, hoping to get her up and around.

Pretty quiet in here. Might as well play obscure tunes. Leah Siegel and Firehorse.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Good ta see back Mr.Skiff. You have been missed. Don't believe these guys if they tell ya I am buying maters. Picked about three pounds of green beans today.

[Chip-skiff]

Good on you! My beans just blossomed. About ten days to the eating. I'm still worn out from the drive. Think I'll go upstairs and flop and watch a trashy movie. Here's a Kiwi tune by Julia Deans, really excellent pop music. The vocal arrangement is brilliant.

[Chip-skiff]

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Coffee is ready, time to rise and shine.

[Farfalla]

Hey BobbyT how are you today?
I see the Wolfman is back. Did you get that compressor fixed so that you can blow up those inflatable tomatoes I sent you from the joke store? I know you're a little short of puff sometimes so if you have to you could just get the Tequila delivery Girl to blow them up for you.
I'll drop some coins in the jukebox later, give you a chance to get up and dance without that Texican hanging about trying to "teach an Okie how to dance"!!

Have fun,
Sophie

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hi Sophie, I am doing ok I guess. How about you? I don't know if Chip will ever buy this tomato thing.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I hope Chris didn't paint himself into a corner.

[Farfalla]

Bobby I don't know why you are so shy about posting this photo of your tomato here. I was surprised when you sent it to me and said you were too nervous to post it.
You shouldn't be afraid of the Wolfman, I don't think he's going to be a sore loser.
If he is well, h*ll, he's all the way up there in Wyoming, it's probably still snowing up there!

So I'm sure he's way be too busy to come and bother you even if he turned out to be that sort of guy!!

But really I think you can trust that he's a nice guy.
That whole wolfman thing, really he's little more than a little terrier.
Haven't you noticed how Ruby has him trotting around in all weathers just to keep her company and he even has to row her around on the river when it's hot!
Does that sound like some sort of serious Wolfman or a far more placid character?

Have fun,
Sophie

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Well I knew you were a brave lady, thats why I sent that to you, and I agree with you about the terrier part.

[Hwyl]

Coffee is ready, time to rise and shine.

I am up and at them. Good afternoon Sophie, hope you are avoiding the hubub of the Jubilee

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Mornin Gareth, how are you this fine day?

[Hwyl]

I'm pretty good considering Bobby. I'm about to spread baking soda on the roof at Leftster.s suggestion.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

What is that supposed to do??

[Hwyl]

Clear the moss.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Clear the moss.

Be careful there.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I guess Chris has given up coffee.
