Right, I've decided to inject a little frivolity into proceedings.

So, our savings and pensions have all been liquidated, we may or may not have jobs and houses. Right. I'm sitting here in the field with...

1. A cheery fire.
2. A guitar.
3. A limitless supply of chocolate brownies.

Who's for joining me, and what three things are you bringing?

Count me in!!

I will bring MY guitar, a very large bottle of Iona Single Malt, and a big bag of home-grown aherm, herbal doldrums remedy.

I'm sure I'd break out the Pea Pod wine for this. 8)

Oh and toasting marshmallows would be essential, so count me in to bring a big bag.

What the hell, the end is nigh, right?
I'll bring a huge vat of custard, a trampoline and a smile. Or is this meant to be a family-orientated event?

I'd be thinking that it's a waste of firewood that could be more efficiently burnt in a stove and is the chocloate organic and fairly traded.

(Bloody party-pooper.)

Hmmmm there seems to be a theme emerging here . . .
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look, but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child has grown, the dream has gone

I have become . . . comfortably numb

I was just waiting for an excuse to bring my 400W wind/solar power sound system with LED disco lights!!! :wink:

This is getting better . . . if we are in a field, it's the right time of year for those funny little mushrooms too!! :D
