come one, come all

the biggest blow out of the year

february 2nd is my birthday and everyone is invited

where? marc's house, where else, with his time warp gizmo everyone can be there whenever they want to be, arrive too late for the doughnuts? no problem, now you're there when they're still hot, miss the birthday cake, see me blow out the fire on top again and again

everyone is invited, bring yourself, bring a loved one, bring a gift for exchange among yourselves and a pound of your best bacon for the puppy dog, you know who you are

i have already ordered several gross of the finest glazed doughnuts available as my treat to all of you

be there or be square (i stole that line somewhere)

Well, a happy birthday to you, but sadly I won't be able to make it (prior engagements and such...)

So, keep some doughnuts for when I'm back in town!

Thanks for the invitation! Duty officers told me I´m not allowed to import bacon when beaming myself to Marc´s house in Oz. Due to Ozian (Ozmic? Ozish? Ozzy?) law you´re only allowed to import raw material. I´m still trying to get it into the beamer, so I might be a little late....

Excellent! A King Of Doughnuts Rave! What could possibly go wrong?

Quote:
where? marc's house, where else,
Superb choice. I've just consulted my good friend, David Tennant...
[SCENE: Your typical cellar with hanging, bare bulb above a wooden chair to which is strapped and wrapped a dazed and hazed Time Lord. Before him is a man, about 5'6" tall, carrying a tad more weight than average, wearing a fedora, a goatee with flecks of grey, and nothing else, and threateningly swinging a willing gibbon around by his left leg.

"Now[WHACK!] Dave-o[WHACK!] you[WHACK!] will[WHACK!] give[WHACK!] me[WHACK!] the[WHACK!] key[WHACK!] and[WHACK!] then[WHACK!] you[WHACK!] will[WHACK!] promise[WHACK!] to[WHACK!] rescind[WHACK!] your[WHACK!] resignation[WHACK!] from[WHACK!] doctoring[WHACK!] or[WHACK!] at[WHACK!] the[WHACK!] very[WHACK!] least[WHACK!] promise[WHACK!] to[WHACK!] star[WHACK!] in[WHACK!] a[WHACK!] new[WHACK!] BBC[WHACK!] comedy[WHACK!] slash[WHACK!] drama[WHACK!] set[WHACK!] in[WHACK!] Glasgow[WHACK!] and[WHACK!] a[WHACK!] bit[WHACK!] like[WHACK!] Scrubs[WHACK!] but[WHACK!] with[WHACK!] that[WHACK!] fine[WHACK!] English[WHACK!] wit[WHACK!] and[WHACK!] dark[WHACK!] Scottish[WHACK!] sense[WHACK!] of[WHACK!] the[WHACK!] macabrely[WHACK!] humourous[WHACK!] but[WHACK!] with[WHACK!] a[WHACK!] hint[WHACK!] of[WHACK!] heart[WHACK!] beating[WHACK!] under[WHACK!] it[WHACK!] all[WHACK!] and[WHACK!] it[WHACK!] would[WHACK!] be[WHACK!] good[WHACK!] if[WHACK!] Tamsin[WHACK!] Greig[WHACK!] had[WHACK!] a[WHACK!] supporting[WHACK!] role[WHACK!]..."

"BILLIE PIPER!"

"Oh, that's our safe word. Sorry, David, did I put a bit too much shoulder into that one? Let's finish up, hey, and all three of us will go get ourselves a latte and a beignet down at the local?"

END SCENE]
...and have now added the new Tardis Wing to Chateau Pompette which should accommodate everyone from Mobileread and any entourage they choose to bring (but, let's be honest, compared to you and your devoted followers, any entourage they may have is more of a sidekick or a hanger-on crew, the Ministry to Queen Zee excepted, of course).

Quote:
be there or be square (i stole that line somewhere)
...you can be there and be square if you want, though I should note that the necessary travel arrangements to place you in the vicinity of the Chateau and the Party at the appropriate confluence of all time and space coordinates will inevitably turn your polygonal proclivities into a twisting tesseract.

It's every where you wanna be, baby!

Cheers,
Marc

Happy birthday for almost a month's time!

I'll definitely be at the party, unless I'm not.

And doubly so if Marc is showing a screening of that scene...

Happy Birthday! UncleDuke. I hope the donuts are as good as always.

I'll bring the chili peppers and beer...if you'll keep your bathroom well-stocked with life's necessities.

happy birthday !! the party was great !! i will was there, and although i've got almost no memory of the festivities (that will be a side effect of the zany carter deluxes) i do have a sort of vague, remanent memory (well, more of a sensation, really) of a warm happy glow, vaguely radioactive, but positive(ly charged).

there were lots of doughnuts !

don't forget to remind us nearer the time, though if you have Marc on board then he'll hit the necessary switches ...

(btw, I though the thread was about an orgy : ducks
