Hi, I'm new here but in a previous life I kept little blue things in the cause of THING. As it's been a couple of years, I'm curious to know if Thing is still Thing and hasn't reverted to that unmentionable word

erm

Well, if I understand you correctly - "Thing" would be and is still "Thing" (as in a replacement name for a day of the week which shall not be named here) so I shan't say the unmentionable word, unless of course you are thinking of a completely different "Thing"/unmentionable word, in which case I am just confused...

Got it? bigeyes

biggrin

You are not confused. I am not quite as mad as all that. you are a fellow THINGite and I am glad to see that it is being properly upheld.
I'm afraid all my little blue things (that's things as opposed to THINGs) all deserted me. I am just left with a few large purple ones now. Unlike the blue ones, they don't go "whoop" on alternate THINGs, they just throb persistently. As it is THING tomorrow I will have another hard day trying to get them to throb in sync.
Wish me luck!

Throbbing is good, however I can see how you miss the "whoop"... erm You might possibly give some thought to some slightly largish medium sized chartreuse things that go "wubba, wubba, wubba".

ok

I don't miss the whoop all that much to be honest. I think they all moved to the US. Every time you see an American chatshow you seem to hear something similar.
Maybe you have different ideas being female and a high priestess, but I think Chartreuse is just a little too poncy for me.
I'm thinking more along the lines of Vermillion but "Wubba wubba wubba" sounds good. I could get them to impersonate Chinnok helicopters at children's parties and make back all the cost. And If I steal one small child from each party, I won't have to worry about the food bill. Oops did I type that out loud?
Actually, they will live quite happily on old newpapers. When I get some, I will call one of them Russell.

Thankyou for your suggestion.

Sounds like a plan, however, make sure you avoid the little bitty orange things that go "eep-eep, boing "

erm

*whispers "shhh!!! I think I hear one now!" whispers*

I know what you mean. As they are very small and bitty, a vacuum cleaner normally does the trick.
This is top class toot we're talking by the way, do you do that sort of thing often?
