Huoommm ... yes.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

well a drink to anyone today... I suppose, nostalgia and melancholy are falling on me once again, like every year at the same date... one year more (or one year less... depends on how you look at it)

Cheers! (... I suppose)

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Look on it as one year more - others didn't get to this point, so we should celebrate our own good fortune in having done so! Many happies to you, Master Elf. I'll even give you a free drink, and that doesn't happen very often.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Huooommm ... that barkeep is absolutely right, Master Gildor, it's one year more, not less ... so, just keep on the way you are ... rhuoomm ... please ... and, er, thanks for the drink ... cheers, my dear Elf ... huooorhuoommm hôm ... rhûom ... hÒmMmm ...

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

well it remains one year less toward youth and things long gone/past that won't be possible again ... don't take attention upon my melancholy wink

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

mmhh is it me or the mithril community and activity is currently in some sort of stasis or hibernation? it seems as if... everything was slowed down...

I feel a bit anxious about the general mood/inactivity. Does it hide something negative ? sad

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

I was thinking much the same thing. I think the holiday season has begun to have an impact - a little earlier than usual, perhaps - as has the absence of any news or any new figures other than the occasional MS model. For myself, the current month's suggestions haven't enthused me sufficiently to vote at all. (But then, you'll remember that I'm not a 'fan' of the themed months the Michael foists upon us all too often!)

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

well, having a bellydancer could prove sexy sexy... a bit off topic but refreshing nonetheless smile

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Well, I suppose Middle-earth may have had belly-dancers if its subcreation had ever progressed to that depth of cultural detail, but I wonder what the slightly prudish, old-fashioned, ultra-conservative Tolkien would have thought of them?

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

And on another matter, The Man's latest rendition of Halbarad is yet another classic. At the moment Chris just can't go wrong! Has he started eating three Weetabix every day? (Er, I'm not sure that translates beyond the boundaries of Bree...)

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Hello everyone! It has been a long time. I just needed to take a break from miniatures for a bit. A round of drinks for everyone!

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Ah, a man with money at last! Welcome back, Master Marshal.

But a break from miniatures? Do you mean there's life beyond minis? Sorry, can't get my mind round the concept...

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Huoommmm .... Breeish bicycles to Croatia? ... very strange that is, isn't it? ... huomm ... sometimes I wonder what's happening, in case something really is happening .... huoomm ... anyway, Mistress Sevlag is about to refurbish her Pony-diorama with some trodden wargskins at the threshold, that's where they should be .... rhuoommm ... Master Turambar has again finished another great (grand) diorama in such a short time ... rhuomtodômmm .... our Travelling Elrond has been packed .... hom ... (not including that cat) ... huuuûom ... hom ... The Man is busy with some vignettes, meseems ... rhuomm ... that Haradrim bellydancer will win the race ... houmoummm ... any more rumours your are keen on? ... huomm ... did my very best today, again, so to say .... me, the tree
and as for that, Master Barliman, my cat has learned to speak by now ... he can express himself very well - though we still have to find out what is a noun, an adjective or a verb .... rhuoommm .... next year there'll be an extra teaching in rhetoric for him ... you really cannot haste a cat, can you? ... so such matters take time, and time cannot be hasted, as far as I know ... huoomm.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

But cats certainly try to hasten it, so that the gap between meals gets ever shorter. Mine is badgering me even as I sit here - after all, he got fed as long as an hour ago, and thinks that it's about time for his plate to miraculously refill again.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

That's wrong, Master Barliman, cats do not haste at all ... huoomm ... they're just in search of that miraculously-refill -thing ... holy grail, or something of that sort ... rhuoomm ... the problem is, that you really don't know where it is or might be ... rhuomm ... though cat knows, that you should provide him with that re-filling-bowl-thing ... huoomm ... and it doesn't matter where you take that bowl from ... must be filled, that's all ... rhuooumm .... alas, by now I'm pretty much fed up with Hajo-Pai, as he still insists on some food ... rhuomm ... know, I told him that there are mice and birds outside .... huoommm ... cats are strange, aren't they .... huom

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

"Lazy", not "strange". "Lazy". Their lifestyle is best described as "snack and snooze". Perhaps I should try it some time. It sounds appealing. The only problem is, if I was a cat I wouldn't be able to hold a paintbrush.
