Mo No







It's so wrong.


















That said, having given him substantial help above and beyond the call of duty in creating his Mo Space Gobby felt she may stand to benefit in some way despite being unlikely to suffer from men's cancer in the future:




Billy's Motivation

a rarely witnessed thing. 
 



Billy Idle
Thank you, Gobby darling, for your donation for which I cannot wait to repay you, umpteen times over, in whichever way you dictate.
2 December 2011







Billy Idle
My girlfriend, Gobby, is the absolute light of my life and I have no idea what I would do without this wonderful woman, constantly at my (constant) beck and call and who created this space for me on my behalf upon my instruction.

But, and this time actually in his own words, Billy is sincerely grateful to everyone that sponsored him.

Pom Pom

Despite their best efforts to reign in a collective sense of disappointment, the Regulars had to conclude that when Gobby has coquettishly told them she would, later in the evening, show them what she could do with her pompoms, they were expecting a slightly more impressive display.













Hellfire

The Regulars celebrated a marvellous Bonfire night in the local park.  This was doubly enhanced as they were able to watch the firework display both in the sky and beautifully reflected by Tattoo's head.

To which he retorted, had he known, he would have charged them double.

They were slightly less impressed by Gobby's bonfire food selection and her version of apple bobbing being trying to rescue the cremated remains of what was once a potato from the pit of Hades.







Although this scorching was nothing that couldn't be turned around by the introduction of middle-aged fun with sparklers and a splendid night had by all.









Filtered

All Gobby could say in mitigation was that, at the very least, and clutching at straws, this episode of Barton Lives could go some way to make up for those destined to remain, forever, in the washing machine filter.

Technoroll

Following a recent theme the Regulars were stunned by Hamish's picture.



















Not as you understand that he may have, in point of fact, found someone lazier than Billy Idle.

But because the legendary technomuppet had managed to take, upload and successfully email a photo.

Trick or Treat - should have gone for Treat

As Halloween got into full swing Gobby realised, too late, that she had been misguided to allow Jordan and Tattoo to invite themselves round for the evening.













Ice Toad Ruckers

Setting out for a beer-filled excursion on a double-decker down the inaccessible back roads of the Shire, Gobby commented that in winter the route must be indubitably as treacherous as that undertaken by her heroes, the Ice Road Truckers.

Jordan confidently butted in with,

"Surely you mean: ITR!"

To which the best Gobby could counter with was,

"Well, almost..."








































As suspected - not a truck in sight.



When the Chips are Down

It would be too demanding an undertaking to document the corresponding incident; however it can be assumed that Billy Idle had learnt a highly salutary life lesson from this in acknowledging,

“You can’t rinse chips.”

Take no Prisoners

Not content with stealing an honest local hard-working labourer's sand, it would seem that Spudgirl and Tubthumper were now intent on taking his business as well.
