tels orginality  such originality
c'est tellement beau  it is so beautiful
Les couleurs sont magnifiques  the colors are magnificent
sacré bleu  literally translated this means "crowned blue"...it is the equivalent of our "OMG!"

So glad you like our handiwork, Charlotte!  You left your paint box over there and we just couldn't resist...especially after your lovely rendition of "Boggles of Deer at the Mall!"

[TiaLD77]

Ummm Anne.....was this the box of paints you used??.....those arent Charlottes.....those were my permanent paints I used for painting the Parcheesi board.....

[Mistress Charlotte]

(You guys are so fun! You made me snort my coffee!)

[Lady Mikayla of Phoenicia]

Ummm Anne.....was this the box of paints you used??.....those arent Charlottes.....those were my permanent paints I used for painting the Parcheesi board.....

Ummmm ooopsies!!!   

[DuCoeur]

*Sprays Ale*  It is permanant?  Mais Non madamoiselle charlotte...This can not be...

Cest Vrais...Now we can say you are truely a Fox...Nest Pas?

More Ale sil te plais *hic*

[Professor M]

Well folks, I've enjoyed the house-warming, but we've done warmed the place all the way into faire season, and I've got to plan a trip to Avaloch.  Good night all.  Au reviour!

[anne of oaktower]

Oh dear, oh dear....Oh DEER!  What are we going to about poor Charlotte?  I see the mistake now...a drip of paint had run down the side of the box.  What I thought said Face Paints was actually supposed to say Base Paints! 

It's a good thing we have plenty of refreshment here, Charlotte, 'cause I think you're going to be stuck in the cabin for a while until we figure out how to undo our little faux pas. 

[anne of oaktower]

Well folks, I've enjoyed the house-warming, but we've done warmed the place all the way into faire season, and I've got to plan a trip to Avaloch.  Good night all.  Au reviour!

Say it isn't so!  We'll miss you, Prof.  Be sure to stop in on occasion to say hello!

Bon Voyage!

[TiaLD77]

Good Bye Professor! safe trip!

*turnign from door Hands Charlotte a tankard* It will wear off....eventually my dear.....

Anyhoooo Anybody up for a game of Parcheesi?

[Terry Griffith]

Happy trails to you,
Until we meet again.
Happy trails to you.
Keep smilin' until then.........

[Lady Mikayla of Phoenicia]

The top layer of skin lasts about a week, so you'll be back to normal in about a week.  In the meantime, ale and parchessi sounds great!     Ummm, how do you play parchessi?   

[TiaLD77]

Its easy Lady Mikayla,  just take a seat, pick a color of Pawns (red, yellow, Green, or Blue)... Heres your Pair of dice....
Put your pawns in their matching corner square.

Now to get a pawn out of the square you have to roll a five, now if you roll pairs of five you can move 2 pawns out.

that can always be the tricky part gettign 5's...I think we need a pitcher of something...is there any Sangria?
