Christmas Number 1?

Actually I have written  a book about the children which I've designed, put all my favourite photos and memories of them in. I have done a chapter on each one of them all about how special, wanted and loved they were/are and every feeling and emotion I ever felt for each of them. As our little ones are adopted, like myself, I wanted them to know how treasured they are to us and never have any questions in their minds that they were afraid to ask so I left no stone unturned. I wrote all about our trips to Mexico to meet our son, the first meeting etc, all the special unforgettable memories.....the funny things he did and said as a toddler, school...and have it all documented with photos. I did the same for each of the girls and have all the memories of the Kingdom of cambodia in it. Then there is naturally enough the chapter on when we had the four of them together and how they all get on and the entertaining things that they do and say. I also wrote lots of little poems about them and for each of them, nothing mega talented but should be cute for them!There are about 2000+ pages in it!!!! Each year I plan on doing a sequel!!!! So it is a bit tough on the eyes for reading. But I am sure that they will tresure it when they get older & I am a senior member!!!

Fair play Ann, great idea and they'll treasure it always.

Ah Rolo,

Thats so yesterday now, we've all moved on!

Let you off this time. Its fierce quiet here , isn't Russell due back today?

AH Xgh your mean! I want that to be kept up - not deleted!

It was great Rolo.

No I didn't - terrible isn't it.  It shows up my lack of imagination too, not being able to think up one for myself.

Hi folks,

It seems that I'll have to do another little song if you all keep moving this one away from the Number One slot.

Noodles

Was a sticky until Xgh bribed KBannon to un sticky it.

Don't know what she promised him.

Rolo.

Don't know Shar,

Will probably see Noodles down the Quare Place later on and will ask him then.

You for the Local tonight then ?

Rolo.

 

Right lads, at the request of one of our esteemed seniors, we've put together another little tune for your enjoyment...................

 

 

THE LUNATICS BALL

 

In the of town of Raheny, K Bannon and Crusty

They set up a website to serve one and all

It was based on the Grove, our Alternative Disco

But what could they call it ? The  Lunatics Ball ?

I first came upon it one July friday evening

When I turned on the Computer and found this oul site

And when I clicked on the Forum, sure that was me knackered

So now I’m in here all day and all night.

 

For five long months nothing was happening

Five long months and no postings at all

All of a sudden a new gang of Ravers

Found their way into the Lunatics Ball.

When Eejit logged on, sure I’d just logged off again

Then Lenny logged on and Eejit logged off

Then Lenny logged off and Rolo logged on again

All starting to post to the Lunatics Ball

 

By the month of November there was a whole gang of addicts

Xgrovehead, Kay Fagan to name just a pair

And when I logged on late one Tuesday evening

What were they doing, but discussing their hair

Have you any grey ones says Kay to Teresa ?

No, but I had orange streaks says poor Xgrovehead

It took them four hours to fix me poor ringlets

And there was me trying to go shopping instead

 

So I’m sitting in work, reading all of this this drivel

Women and hairdressers, just not my scene

Would rather discuss Jump Jockeys or Darts

So I logged out quite quickly, if you know what I mean

So I logged out and Lenny logged in again

Lenny logged out and Xgrovehead logged in

Xgrovehead logged out Kay Fagan logged in again

All getting addicted to the Lunatics Ball.

 

By then there was Stevie and Russell and Pat,

Think there was ten of us, possibly more

There’s Jackie and Grainne and our new member Star,

Ann Whelan and Sharon, our blatant Post Whore

So Sharon me old pal, where can I start

Don’t want upset you, ‘cos your wit’s just too clever

But I sure want to thank you for those words of persuasion

When I’d threatened to log off for ever and ever.

 

So I logged off and Sharon Logged on again

Sharon Logged Off and gave Eejit a call

All in an attempt to rescue poor Rolo

When he threatened to run from the Lunatics Ball

Then Russell logged on and Sharon Logged off again

Glad to see Russell, safely back  from Nepal

An what do you think was the first thing he did ?

Don’t ya know he checked into the Lunatics Ball.

 

Now Lenny’s promotion it caused quite a stir

The things he can do with a wink and a nod

Not like that Tuesday Night at the Reunion

When he spent the whole night in conversation with God

A bad pint he says was the cause of his problems

When Kay insisted we give him a call

Now Lenny we hear ya but no one believes ya

Sure aren’t we all members of the Lunatics Ball.

 

Poor Star’s not quite sure what to make of the forum

But glad to see she’s joining in with the crack

Least she knows Lenny, probably makes her feel better

Otherwise she might never come back.

Says she’s not sure ‘bout meeting the members

Can’t say I blame her, sure we’re nuts one and all

Cos all of us ravers have one thing in common

We just can’t escape from the Lunatics Ball.

 

So Star logged on and Stevie logged off again

Jackie logged on but there’s no sign of Ann

And the minute when Pat gets home from his trip

Don’t you know he’ll try to log on when he can.

Poor Jackie’s confused whenever she’s here

Says “  how can you lot be on line all day ? “

Ah Jackie, afraid that’s one I can’t answer

But I think Teresa’s got a number for Kay.

 

So we’re all set for Easter and The Shieling again

Rolo, Xgrovehead, Lenny and Kay.

Maybe this time we’ll get Russell and Stevie

Don’t ya know we’ll get Jackie, she just can’t stay away.

So Eejit, get to the airport and get on that plane

If you like, you should bring The Doctor and all

Cos for sure I’m  defo gonna bring Noodles

Just to check out this Lunatics Ball.

 

Ah Eejit me old pal you thought you’d escaped

You’re all those years living out in the States

Thought you could hide in your ten bedroom mansion

Thought it’d save you from stick from your mates

So when are you gonna come home to see us

We don’t give a monkeys, Spring, Summer or Fall

Just make sure, when we meet ya, you’ve your drinking boots on

So you can get rat arsed at the Lunatics Ball

 

Now Rolo the lad is very respectable

Never a word of filth will ya hear

Finding that word that fits as delectable

To the Gentlemen’s Rulebook he will only adhere

Don’t talk of his kilt as it’s bound to cause tension

You can hear the regret in his voice, you might say

I think there are days he’s sorry he mentioned it

But in truth it’s brought laughter to many a day.

 

So Rolo logged off and Eejit Logged on again

Eejit logged off and Xgrovehead logged on

Then Lenny logged on and Xgrovehead logged off

Not sure ‘bout calling it The Lunatic’s Ball.

Then Kay Fagan and Russell and Sharon Logged on

And Eejit and Jackie and Rolo and all

Then along came Xgrovehead with a marvellous suggestion,

Why don't we call it " The Three Fingers Ball "
