The 2012 Annual Forumshire Awards

I would like to put forward a few early prediction for the forthcoming Annual Forumshire Awards ceremony at the end of the year, I will strive to predict a few of my front runners, cos honestly its a long time to wait.

Award for services to self promotion - Orwell


Mrs Figg and Kafria tried to tempt Orwell with their lady bling, but he had stuff on his mind.

well ok then but I couldnt resist that picture of Orwell

Summer picnic sounds fun

about halfway down th epage with the red carpet arrivals.

Very entertaining that was. Looking forward to next year.

what happens at this picnic anyway?

Well the last one got a bit complex- Wisey went a bit mad and lost his trousers (or was that Odo?) and confusion ruled as everyone turned up in fancy dress disguised as each other. The elvish band overcharged. Queen Tinuviel was introduced to buckie (and Beren had Huan chase me up a tree for it). In other words it was a farcical mess full of nonsense- so the usual great Forumshire fun!

Nice can we have another one then??? pleaaaaaaaaasseeeee!

I always get ants in me pants at picnics and sticky fingers, and oily smears on my face that go all grubby with soil. remind me to bring Wet Wipes

I think Mrs Figg organising this years might be right up your street. What you neeed first is to decide on a date for the picnic opening and a theme is always fun.
After that Forumshire inventivness tends to run rampant.

oh coolio! I need people to give ideas for a theme then. and a date when we are all here in the Shire and not visiting relatives in Sandybottom or Bywater and stuff.

and I am rubbish at photoshop, just so you know.

Well it was fancy dress last time- which was fun -but could do that but with a theme to the fancy dress this time.
My only suggestions based on expereience are- you will never have enough buckie and read the small print in the bands contract.

(You don't ned to photoshop- the palantirazzi will be there for Pure Publications to capture the magic moments and spash them all over the gossip pages next day).

another picnik would be great! but after May please at least the 17th

My vote is late May or June. Come July and most of August you won't be seeing much of me here.

Every picnic needs a sack race, 3 legged race, potato in a spoon race, etc. With pictures of course. And speeches. Lots of speeches on various themes pertaining to Forumshire.

oh thats right in August I have to go and help Halfwise with his tent erection, as I got hired to be his assistant for a camp project. so late May it is then.

Oh my, I think I just heard Orwell's heart shatter, and he's on the other side of the world.

I'm trying hard not to touch this one.

You need to peg it down, thats the secret to good tenting.

That one's much easier to resist. Thank you. The T.E. had me squirming, I mean, there's 13 year olds running about!

its your wild imagination at work again Halfwise, sheesh!

13 year olds? here? haven't seen any.. you could reverse it though.. there is probably some old, swetty bloke.. in his fifties.. eating frozen pizza over his keyboards... that's even scarier!

I'll just get my popcorn. and fifty isnt old dear Norc, fifty is the new forty or so I am reliably informed. But to you young whippersnappers anything over 30 is old I guess?

Don't you remember we have a new teenager rampaging about? I don't want to point anyone out, but her initials are S.Q.U.A.C.H.

Do 13 year olds get dooble entendrez?

Twelve year olds, no. Fourteen year olds, definitely. it's a tender, transitional age.

But once they are definitely old enough to get'em, no holds barred, I say.

And as for the other ages, 40 was less painful than expected, but that frozen pizza hasn't improved in taste any. I have taken on a tendency to wear something other than white socks with short pants, and if I don't keep close tabs on them the insides of my ears keep getting fuzzier and fuzzier.

there is probably some old, swetty bloke.. in his fifties.. eating frozen pizza over his keyboards...- Norc

Hey how do you know that? Is this screen two-way!

and your ears get bigger and bigger.
