Ok. First things first, you need to look at the route map. As there are giant pawns everywhere I think it would be best to try and avoid them. This means we will have to somehow get through all the yellow stuff in the Bristol Channel. I feel sure that the Gracious Me boat will be up to the task, as Heysatan gave it a complete overhaul after crashing it on the M40.
There won’t be any room for luggage, so you will all have to travel in full costume and make-up. Unfortunately this means D will have to be towed and won’t be able to join us on deck. On the plus side, we will be able to stack the camera’s and lighting equipment on top of him, but we must remember to be careful when we put the brakes on.
Also I don’t know if the giant pawns can swim, or whether they are hostile, so we will need to take some weapons just in case.
Any questions?

I’m sure if show the pawns that you have a few bishops (not mention a couple of queens) that they will scuttle off back to their own chess boards! :D

Great idea!! :D We need a few knights as well, they’re always more useful than they look … And maybe a couple of Castles? I wonder how much wait D can actually carry before he starts travelling underwater? :S
Also (on the plus side) they can only move a bit at a time, but I don’t like the way they’re all gathered up around Barry …
This could be dangerous. I think we might need a few real ghostbusters as well :(

I sure that we can get a few driuds (a bit scarey than bishops) over there to pave the way for the production. :D

I think Marja will have to play all the other parts, and she will have to do the finance for us as she has half an idea what she’s talking about. The budget isn’t looking quite how at should …
Ok, I’m off. I have a script to write!

How much wait can I carry? I can wait to carry quite a while.
You’re all forgetting: I can carry you all in one hand. And eat my other hand. Mmm… Marshmallow.

Right - thiswill have to do. It’s not everything we’d hoped for, but I’m sure we’ll manage to pull it off somehow.
D, I’m sorry but I washed your costume and it went yellow, but I’m sure it will be ok. We might have to call you Mr custard or something though, otherwise it might not make sense to the american audiences.
Dan, will you help D into his suit? I have to go and talk to some celebrities about the film launch. And get somebody to polish my car, will you - it’s got dust on it. :mad:

Well due to problems with the budget we might have to try something a bit cheaper, but I reckon with enough prunes and weetabix we’ll be able to make a convincing farmyard :)
Would you mind playing the part of Maud, Auto Surgeon? We seem to have overlooked a few bits … I will play the part of Zeke to save time.
Sump’n’s stirrin’ up the chickens, Maude. :)

Hello all, have some toast :)
Could someone summarise concisely and clearly what has happened in my absence? I’m still not connected to the net in Brum and snowed under with work and entertaining people. And maybe having one or two tipples myself.
How is everyone?

Thanks Hanne, we missed you!:) Hello Marja - good to have you back too - the house looks amazing! It’s got walls and stuff!! :eek:
WP - For the last time, they’re not pachyderms, they’re pokemon! You are not going to impress anybody like that!However …I bought you this book of Penn and Teller tricks, you should try some of them instead :)
Morning Gav :)
Right. I’m sorry folke, but I need to practice my ‘Zeke’, so I’ll have to talk like a Deep South redneck for the rest of the morning :S

Just one floor and a roof to go and building will be finished. Than the other stuff can start, but that takes up the most time. I can’t believe they only started 5 weeks ago.

Morning everyone, the weather is fucking aweful here thunder lightning and the village is getting flooded..which i don’t really care about as i live on a hill and a few less imbred Villagers in the lower part wont go amiss.
On a plus side I for some reason bought from Tescos for 50p Transformers the movie on DVD…i remember loving it as a kid so it has a very high chance of now being really shit!
How’s you all?

Just bear in mind that the Hercules DVD of mine (I mean Boo’s :rolleyes: ) cost 99p in Tesco, so technically that means it is twice as good as the Transformers… I don’t hold out much hope for ya sweets ;)
