[F] Meet Laurabelle. in London - Quotefile
Arwen Lune
in the middle of the table, and various people put down notes,
quotes and wibblings. Enjoy.

Custom MultiThread Quotefile Mk1
One monkey, several mammoths and a doily were harmed in the
compilation of this quotefile.
Barry: "It doesn't fit! Give it here, I'll have it"
Arwen (when The Book part lll arrives) :
"NoooooOOOOOOooooOOOOoooOOOOOOooooo!"
Mole: "I read Longtusk from frontcover to backcover"
(now *there's* a thing to be proud of...)
Laurabelle: (to Arwen, squeezing tightly) Sorry, it won't fit...
Barry: Kevin, where's your other hand?
Kevin: (with LB on his lap) Oh, this is just a new form of
ventriloquism.
Nick Caulfield : "It's good that we're in the no-smoking section,
only now there are no ashtrays to dump the duck in."
Eric (on seeing mad drunk women going for random snogs with doilies
on their head) That proves it! There *are* weirder people than AFP!
[overheard conversation]
Mole: "..that turns your little balls, into great <gestures with
hands> big balls!"
Gideon: "..sheep..."
Moth: "We're going to eat the monkey!"
<Fishing blatantly>
Moth: "So who wants head.."
Gideon: "...from the monkey"
</Fishing blatantly>
Corinne: "I'd be craving salami after a while..."
Our Irish guest, Carol, finally apologised for Boyzone.
About bloody time.
Kevin: Damn,it's not quite a fork. (brandishing a knife to pick up
Eric's chips with)
Gideon, with a wave of his hand : "These aren't the chocolates you
are looking for"
Mole: "Right. Now I'm happy and will be for the rest of the
evening. I've got something to stroke."
Cheers,
Arwen Lune

Arwen laid down her broadsword. "I must ask for the knives
as well, babe." said Hammy. Arwen growled and laid them
down. "And the crossbow, and the morningstar, and the axe..."

Yay, I've failed to be quoted.
Okay, so I *did* get pelted with small bits of green foil, attacked,
and generally abused[1], But I wasn't quoted.
My life is complete

you were not quoted is that everything (and I mean *everything*) you said
that night was a horrendous pun. Hence the pelting.
I would like to add to this non-report the creation a new game of high
skill and low comedy. A precarious tower of... things was constructed on
the table and a packet of sweeties placed atop it. The player (or
"Challenger") is then handed a Leatherman (or Gerber)[2] and must extract
a sweetie from the packet without knocking it over. Points awarded for
flair, expertise and making the thing wobble without it actually falling
over. It's kinda a cross between Ker-Plunk!, Operation![3] and having a
chocolate.
By the way WE ARE STILL MAKING THE MOVIE. Sorry, that just came up a lot
during the evening, being as a fair-sized chunk o' the movie cabal[4] was
there. Sorry again.

No, no, no - not "great big balls", just "great balls". Oh, and it's

Can I add this to my sigfile too? I'm sorry, but that is priceless,

Please don't. Quotefiles aren't meant to supply for your .sigfile.
And besides, it would set off my scoringsystem because my name is

Huh? How on earth do you figure *that*? If I see a quote I really like,
and I want to use it for my sig, what does it matter where the quote
came from?
> And besides, it would set off my scoringsystem because my name is in

Well yeah, but something like:
if (body contains "Arwen")
score = score + 10
if (body contains "Arwen" and body contains "squeezing tightly")
score = score - 10
should surely take care of that?

That's pretty much my opinion, but I won't nab it if Arwen would
rather I didn't...

I'm going to be completely boring here and vindicate myself by
describing the context of said quote:
>Laurabelle: (to Arwen, squeezing tightly) Sorry, it won't fit...
I had gotten quite a bit of lemon in my coke, didn't want it,
offered it up for grabs. Arwen assented, but the (rather
thick) slice wouldn't fit into the bottle she was drinking
from. And for the record, I wasn't squeezing either, because
that would have dribbled/squirted lemon juice all over.

And to that all I have to say to that is:
