You have friends who own some pensioner cash pile. Not so interesting. I have friends who pretend to be Marie of Romania. Just as interesting. Isn't a "proper" high tea beans on toast? Just asking. Je would not know. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5483 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 14:09:03 +0000 The All New Jeni B 5483@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I have friends who own and run a residential care home for adults with learning disabilities and mental health issues.<br /> This they do with a great deal of compassion and humour.<br /> It's a beautiful old Victorian mansion, and they've restored it sympathetically while allowing for modernity.<br /> On a Saturday evening, they serve the residents a proper high-tea with all the trimmings, play board games, then some of the more elderly residents like to have a proper old-fashioned dance.</p> <p>This caused Mr B to observe that it was like "One Flew Over The Cuckoo Waltz".</p> <p>I imagine that Rikkor would fit in rather well. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5456 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 10:45:19 +0000 Dickens or Shakespeare 5456@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Or Caroline Quentin-Crisp? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5438 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 09:35:09 +0000 StoopyDeGunt 5438@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ah we back on QUentin Crisp again? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5431 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 09:22:07 +0000 jp1885 5431@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Poor Bob... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5425 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 09:00:12 +0000 edward hack 5425@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I think you'll find Finger Bob only had one thing on his mind </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5404 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 00:52:26 +0000 thackaray 5404@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'm still trying to figure out the plot of the Moomins and Finger Bob from my youth. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1849#post-5402 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 00:36:47 +0000 Quaz 5402@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>You weren't in there with Hurley from "Lost" were you?

Well, anyway. We inmates played at draughts all day long, and there was a string quartet that feautured selections from the most obscure and atonal of the 20th-century composers. And at tea time, we had fairy cakes from the most most exquisite local conditerie. It was all just, so, so. You understand, I'm certain. </p>
