I will be OK once YaaB Goddess, promise!! But noticed today that some peeps had thousands of posts, thousands!!!! I really feel there should be several more steps up the ladder after YaaB thingy. Any ideas/thoughts/feelings/raised eyebrows??? Just so you know when I get there......Big party!! Lottie ;D
keep yaabing lottie as i could do with a party , and u never know lottie when u get there queen yabb godness u might even win a big shinny cup
Now don't tease, Dibber, would be too cruel!! Bit excited though, between you and me (?), pub I did hanging baskets for is tipped to win In Bloom Comp!!! :o :o :o Mind you, having discovered the entire aphid population on them today, I doubt it!!! Landlord promised me a big drink, BUT WANT CUP!!!!!! Lottie ;) ;
Tim and EJ appear to have atttained 'Pics' status now that they have topped 5000. It's a very long way up there so I think we will have to remain humble Gods and Goodesses for some time yet.
lottie i am sure u will get that big shinny cup soon maybe not of the landlord if aphids are munching on his baskets , but soon lottie i can fill it in my bones the cup is coming your way
Redclanger i am sure we are not humble we all gifted in one way or an other we will soon cacth up u see i reckon Red me u and lottie will have aleast 6000 by the end of the week
At least!!! Up for a late one tonight!!!! Sorry. Lottie ;D
Had another look and now think pics must mean something else as they are still gods as well. :(
see red we are all gods amen
lottie is that a late one in here or in the aphid pub {sorry} lol
LOL! In here! Squished aphids! Anihalated them in friendly manner, whilst apologising!! Actually I really brave today, refused to use lady's bug gun cos killed bees. Expecting mouthful, but she mortified!!! Went and got nice aphid gun!!
Lottie ;D
OK. Explanation needed!! Hope you noticed occasionally I'm Lotite 187, as can't face going in chat room as Undercarriage Plan! Can you blame me....... I deserve big cup for coming out of cupboard!! Please??? Lottie ;D
well seeing you are out takes a lot of guts to come out , might think about getting u a nice shinny cup
Ooooo Dibber really!!! :o :o :o Lottie
I am willing to go down pound shop and buy big cup, then spray it with shiny silver paint. Will that do?
YES!!!! Now! Get on bike!! Thanks Derek! Lottie ;D ;D ;D
Our group won a Silver Dustbin in the "In Bloom" last year. There was no queue for displaying it ;D
i bet there was not much of a queue wardy, but mind u the bin could have came in handy
lottie i fink u should win a cup for being the funniest person on here
Don't feel very funny at min!! Sat on legs last night for about 2 hrs in same position. Stood up to go to bed and promptly fell over! Leg had beat me to it and gone to sleep!! Spent next 10 mins rolling around the floor laughing , couldn't get up, leg sound asleep!! Then hobbled upstairs and joined leg!!! Lottie ;D ;D ;D
i bet that was a real funny sight to see ;D ;D ;D
This site is doing my head in
ha ha ha
Well Lottie, as you can tell I have been trying really really hard to pip you to the post, but I think you will just beat me to it. :D
I've been mad for a long time, Derek!! Takes years of effort and meticulous preparation to reach this peak of madness!! Keep practising......! Lottie ;D
mind u Derek i would say u are not far away from the level of madness lottie holds, not much longer and reckon u might be getting a madness cup to ;D ;D ;D
I presume this cup also comes with a free straitjacket and manacles! :D
Will manacles be shiney?!!!! :o :o :o Lottie
OOH yes please! oops letting out my secrets now! :-[ ha ha ha
Yippee another star, halfway anyway
senior member, very apt description!
no i am sorry Derek u can have shinny cup but no shinny manacles not aloud
Doh! Anyway thanks Dibber for what I presume is a compliment!
compliment of course Derek
Think I'm only 12 off being a goddess!! If only........! But then what will I have to strive for??? What will give my life new meaning????? Need another level, definite. The shiney level!!! Keep me going for years..... Lottie ;)
All hail the new Goddess Lottie!
Whoops!! Dropped me trident....!!!! ;D ;D ;D Lottie

Didn't believe me, did you? ha ha ha
Well, I had yearned for this moment for so long...... To actually have it arrive...!!!! Cos not, thought you on wind up!!!! Lottie ;D
speech speech please lottie
;D Lottie!!!
Is that it? :o
Never done a speech in my life!! Think I'd pass out before getting to podium, or fall of it, or get distracted and wander off, or....... Perhaps after a few glasses of rhubarb!!! Lottie :o
lottie u need to clean up that speech
Um.... ???.... Thank you to everyone who supported me in my endeavours to become a goddess (?), I look back over these last few months as.... I can't do this!!!! need a glass of rhubarb and sit down.........really must weed that pot and, well, look over there... thought I'd done that , mmmm....be right back
Lottie ;D ;D ;D
what a speech well done you really did deserve that cup
I know, you were moved to tears, will try not to be so emotinal next time....... Lootie ;D
tears i am still sobbing now tissue all wet and falling apart that speech really did touch me , just a bit peeved me and Derek was not mentioned
Yes Dibber, you picked my words exactly, will just crawl back under my rhubarb leaf . . .
OK, for goodness sake....... and of course a big thank you goes to Dibber and Derek ( ::))who were my beacons in my hour of darkness, especially since the boiler man just **** electric too!!!!! OK? Happy!! You two so demanding....... :-* ;D Lottie
that better lottie , i mean we put u where u are today and u forgot to mention us ,we might be demanding but we have to keep u on your toes we cant have any slacking
It mended!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D Have hot water, have electric, have soap, have no clean clothes to put on after........... ::) Lottie
the boiler man came back then ;D ;D
You think I'm strange......... He kept telling us he had no idea what he was doing!! And kept trying to leave, but after a brief stay in the shed, locked, he came to his senses.....and boiler is now boiling, I think, will hear me in Scotland if not!!!
Lottie ;D
did u threaten to knock down the shed with the JCB bet thats the only reason he came out
So what was the boiler problem, did you find out?
Husband was boiler problem, still under illussion that plumbing is no problem!! God help me Lottie ;D
Ok, I won't pursue that topic any further ! ;D
OK, sink in, fan in, tiles off, neice recovering nicely, hoover exploded, OH left the building!! Next? Lottie ;D
lottie sounds like it getting worse in your house ,your poor oh what you doing to him
Who? the boiler man, the electrician or my husband!!!! Beginning to sound like a nursery rhyme..... Lottie ;D
perhaps derek could write tune for it ???
LOL!! OK, at minute, all is calm, let boiler man and electrician out (on piece of elastic, you never know!!), water on, boiler on, hoover hoovering, niece nicely recovered, til all begins again tomorrow!!!!!!!! I'm waiting with bated breath for next installent....... OH sitting thinking in garage, very worried..... ??? ??? ???Lottie ;D
A sort of Handy Man blues eh? :D
No!! Happy song now!!!! Bathroom destruction put on hold due to OH very happily hurtling off to Harwich to buy new shining plane!!!!!! Phew!! Lottie ;D
Ok, what about 'Sympatia', this translates as 'liking', will start practicing straight away . . . :D
this sounds interesting, and fun
:'( :'( :'( Violent tiling resumed, plane crap, apparently, me now leaving premises, think wine and swings needed......need something soothing, Derek!!! Lottie ;D
rhubarb cordial and fair ground could be calming
Arcade worked too!!!! Lottie ;D
Ok Sympatia recorded, hope it goes down well with the rest of the recordings . . . Dibber and lottie, just check your emails . . . anyone else just pm me with addy for the mp3. :D
This great Derek!! Can you come up for track for a spot of light gooey lettuce hurling?? Lottie ;D
or even derek origami sprout hurling ;D ;D
something bouncey, I feel would be appropriate...... Lottie ;D
I still have more stuff to record, so will give it my attention . . . :D
bouncey but moving derek
Bouncey, moving and dramatic would be good, but also gentle and spiritual with a touch of Salsa??????? ;D Lottie ;D
Not making it easy are you? I will see what I can do!
Ok here we go, this is Latin, a habanera to be precise. Just enjoy, and shake it all down ! ! ! woohoo. Same arrangements as before, Lottie and Dibber both get gratis copies, anyone else, pm me with email addy.
La Paloma, party time woohoo! :D
Whew, reckon this is my fastest production yet !
very impressed!! That great!! Dibber, need to come up with greater challenge, pond cleaning music? compost turning? Bee teasing?? JCB driving!! Lottie ;D
Ha ha ha no wonder I have no hair ! If I keep going at this rate, I may explode in a puff of smoke, and then you will have to decide, who can help, the boiler man or the electrician. . . ;D
Mmmm well ,think it depends on who breaks out of the shed first......Lottie ;D
you still got them lock in the shed lottie ? it wont be long before they are reported missing :-\ :-\
Derek music is great but lottie is right need more of a challenge for you , yew tree pruning music, grass cutter melody ,hot green house trance,
Right, getting seriously drained here, but yet another one suitable for pond clearing, yew pruning, JCB breakdancing. This is the study in Bminor by Fernando Sor, a well loved piece by classical guitarists. Also good for just chilling out . . . You all know the arrangements by now.
My guitar needs a genuine rest now ! :D
will have a listen and see if we can give you a rest :-\ :-\ :-\ as long as it fits our requirements you may rest , if not back to the drawing board :-\ :-\ :-\
No, no rest!! Need drinking song now for my post in edibles!! Come on man!!!! Up you get!! One vegetable drinking rhyme, please!! ;D Lottie
Remember the car in HP and the chamber of secrets after escaping from the spiders? That is what my guitar is threatening to do . . . :'(
up up and away then Derek just tie it down with the strings
Awwww, poor , Derek, OK you can have day off tomorrow...have a rest, sit down and chill, 24 hrs, that's your lot!!!! Lottie ;D
Aw Thank you! I think I will give myself a big treat, find something nice to do . . .
OK Â lottie i second that as you have been very comadating but only tomorrow
Derek we said nothing about a treat :o :o :o :o we are hard task masters don't drop your guard we will be right back on your case
Well, we have to let him recharge, or music will go down hill...Give him a day then resume merciless hounding I think?? What you going to do with your 24hr pass then? eh?? Use it well, one ayear... Lottie ;D
OK lottie you are right don't want any falling standards , go for it Derek let your hair down :o :o :o
When I say treat, I really mean something that will feed my soul, so the music flows sweetly ! :D Not treat as in ice cream with double chocolate sauce and extra nuts, although that might help . . .
Mmmm, OK got it!! Visit nice garden, relax on grass and come up with more music!!!!!!!!! Then, and only then ice cream!!!!Lottie ;D
Sounds almost perfect lottie, perhaps some nice company to share it with, ah well at least I can dream . . .
OK, you can borrow the electrician and the boiler man, but I want them back in shed by 6.... ;D Lottie
Not exactly what I had in mind . . . unless they have lumps and bumps in the right places ;)
give me a hammer......Lottie ;D
Seeing you in a new light now - wielding a hammer ! I will carefully back away . . .
yippee - 400th post ! I can see the Yabb God on the horizon . . .
see told you Derek lottie is a mad hammer murderer ::) ::) ::)
Only cos I lost me axe... :o :o :o Lottie ;D
what are you going to do if you loose your hammer ;D ;D ;D
Trough? If I can get it in hand bag!! Lottie ;D ;D ;D
brick would be better ;D ;D ;D
you haven't seen the size of my handbag!!!! :o :o :o Lottie
bet its like the Nanny's bag off of bedknobs and broomsticks
Ooo I love that film!!! Always wanted a bed like that, but not all dreams can come true......sniff :'( Wouldn't have minded a bunk bed either, sigh.....but what I really wanted was to be a mermaid.........then I entered my Hiawatha phase, didn't last long cos dad got fed up with me trying to shoot pigs with a stick......... ;) Lottie ;D
could see you lottie with umbrella flying away no thats Mary popins :) :) :)
LOL!! Don't like flying....... but then again, never tried brolly?? Lottie ;D ;D ;D
or broomstick i bet :o :o :o :o :o
Tried that when younger...Jumped off shed roof....wouldn't advise it, it really doesn't work....that was my "I'm Wonder Woman" phase........ Lottie ;D ;D ;D
first you have to get crocked nose and warts then a broomstick and drive of shed then it works
Ha ha, bet you looked quite cute in your wonder woman outfit ha ha! :D
I do hope you're not treating my Wonder Woman phase lightly, Derek!!! Scared the hell out of my parents!! Took to leaping from anything vaguely high and crashing about all over the place.T hat was soon followed by hedge-riding phase, saddle and all......and I jest you not... :-\ Spent many a happy hour trotting along on our hedge....!! Lottie ;D
