i'm making sure my mum keeps them up until i'm safely back at uni because i hate them being taken down.

last year we left our beams up all year, which saved a lot of time.

MARY..!

hows you?

hello there you!

i'm just grand thanks, how are you doing?

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaz!!!

I assume your presence here is due to English assignment procrastination? 

maaaaaybe

i was here last night also, you never know when i might slip along.
want to write my essay for me? i've been trying for the past three days. I HATE UNI WORK take me back primary school.

I am torn... 

 - telling me to tell you to get off the forum & get it done

BUT...  (& tbh I prefer this inner voice)

 - telling me to tell you...   stay here Maz... perfect place for English essay research & inspiration 

im behaving mary

no i am, im very well behaved now

sort of

well i'm half here and half getting ready to go out tonight so either way my essay is being stamped into the dust. i'll finish it 4 minutes before 12 noon on monday-as i have all my other essays. everything must be last minute!

how are you anyway ditty?

and i'm glad to hear you're being well behaved pirate, i wouldn't imagine anything less of you

Always!    I live by "last minute"...  

& I am well ta Maz...   you know...  reliving my youth vicariously, watching your antics on FB 

I am soooo jellus! 

yeah there's no better way than last minute-why would you want to spend important time doing important things like essays when you could be doing other things like lying around?!

my antics? don't you mean my controlled, calm religious lifestyle i now lead?

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZ!

'ello

at the hyper over excited Duck

I got hyper over excited last night....but an hour too late

This time I actually think she's here! HERE!

or is she? 

or am i?!

HI DUCKSSSS

Oops.. I disappeared to have tea

I'm now having to balance a plate of chicken and veg in one hand while typing and holding a fork in the other.

I wouldn't do this for just anyone Maz!

CANNIBAL!! 

Are you calling me a vegetable?

If you like 

you little new potato you 

I don't actually put anything up (I don't own any decorations), also don't get a tree. Today I asked my Mum if I could bin my cards, thankfully she said yes. This Christmas felt very short indeed, by 26th it felt like any other week to me.

.

i feel flattered ducks! i too am balancing salmon and vegetables and one hand typing, also i'm watching that programme about coral reefs...so much multi tasking!

I have enjoyed having them up, but am glad to see the back of them now... we can clean the house properly now!    But I do miss the pretty lights and the tree

Salmon? So much posher than chicken

It's amazing how much multi-tasking you can do when there's only really ONE task you need to do

*whispers* Esssssssssssaaaaaaaaay

sorry...what's that? i don't understand that hideous word i'm afraid...

I think I may have diagnosed the problem

My decs are down and the house feels a bit bare. It does make it easier for cleaning though.

Mary Bee, lovely to see you back.

it's an essay analysing nature being used to debate humanity in a latin poem about the beginning of the world up until it was written, containing myth upon myth over 1000 pages long and some critical extracts written by poets about how poets owe it to the reader to tell them about the connection of nature and us. WHYYY DID I DO THIS?!

yogi!! hello!!

hijack my thread will ya?

too much info there yogi!

I hope you are going to stick around.

Pirate, stop waving that cutless around, or you'll cut yourself.

Is my webcam on?

yeahh i should be! i don't really know why i wandered away anyway

haha i sniggered then

Well, we're glad you decided to come back.

That's a bloody good question! ARE YOU MAD!!!! I lost the will to live by the second line!
