Didn't Noddy feel a little [censored]? Edit:-That auto censor goes too far. It means odd, can I say that?

Best  no more is said on this subject dc, lest we draw the notice of the Golliwogs and then, even the gated community of Borewood, will not be a safe haven.

In the interim dc, you could hire a couple of the lads from me ( mates rates ).

The only possible downside is that they may inadvertently stomp your blue hued nocturnal visitors.

You should invest in a .45 Magnum instead.

...who went one better than CS by actually being on this earth for ALL our premierships! And her predictions were more personnel- than team-focused, foreshadowing the arrival of our Famous 5 and our (now not so) Secret 7. Neither of them particularly snotty-nosed, though. Who is, on our list?

 

p.s., Bitters; I went to Wikipedia to reminisce about the author of my childhood, and stumbled - with some consequent shock - on the following (if it gets past the censors, and I think it should, being in the public domain anyway). I thought it might appeal to you?...

'Her love of tennis included playing naked, with nude tennis "a common practice in those days among the more louche members of the middle classes".'

Well thanks Tim, I did not know that although I did know Enid was apparently something of a "player".

In that context, it is notable that her cottage was named "Old Thatch".

Tim do you know where she put the second tennis ball when she was serving?

With her ball boy Earl. Geez, do you not know anything?

i wasn't  involved in scouts ,Enid Blighton ,The Fab Five or any other such harmless British hazing of blossoming youth.

I will allow those raised in Blighty to regale us with tales of  not getting any discernible satisfaction.

Surprising to me because I have never found the Bretons that tricky to introduce into the boudoir.
