Message For Orchidee

Doggerel Dave

Neighbors the show is finally closing down,

Antipodean excellence of world renown.

No more excuse for a moan from you:

And right from here I hear you shout phew.

From your tears of gratitude I fear I might drown…

    Oh no! The show must go on. At least that is the line. KP could use a little care though. Way to go Dave treat the ladies right.

    • Doggerel Dave

      Don't think so this time, Soren... Though you never can tell - corporate machinations know no bounds, here (or possibly anywhere else).

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      Wait, is this a goodbye message, in the form of a "take care of KP better" letter to Orchi? I hope not...I do enjoy our interactions, my friend.

      • Doggerel Dave

        I ain'r going nowhere...(oh hell - ignore the double negative). Thought the message would be welcome to orchi as he had expended considerable energy decrying an antipodean marvel I've never seen. I personally am happy with that. However, orchi obviously had an addiction he couldn't break, with resultant declarations and confusions over time. It is my fervent wish that he will be happier from now on.
        PS: It was a private letter to orchi, you know...........

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          Ahhh. Okay! 🤣 Well the, whew! 😅

        • NinjaGirl

          Clever allusion, did you watch the show much? Or is there another soap opera you're referencing...

          • Doggerel Dave

            Never seen it, though orchi, despite his protestations was obviously glued to the box when it was on.....

          • orchidee

            Cooeee! I'm not going nowhere either. Which means I'm going somewhere. I won't go. I'll hang around like a .........bad smell?! lol.
            They might take me away though, men in white coats. I've seen too much of 'Neighbours'. lol.

            • Doggerel Dave

              You go when they ask - imagine, a roof, a bed and food provided plus a therapy group nine am sharp in the morning....

              (I do hope the NHS still provides.....)

              • orchidee

                How do I get pass the 'verify' on here? I'm not human, well. not fully! lol.

                • Doggerel Dave

                  I'm definitely in peril here, any moment I'm going to sea ....quite qwackers.......

                • Neville


                  am I to assume I may have missed something since I have been away .. tut tut I can't leave you alone for three weeks canine .. Neville

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    Possibly quite a lot. I try to pop in fairly regularly, pee against a nature piece, deposit a crap somewhere and move rapidly on....

                    That's funny, cos the shop in the centre has been closing down for forty years, too.
                    KP says just go into comedy gold cos old father time is still showing.
                    We need a neighbours spin off now. Something like. Find a neighbour. A neighbour in need, is usually a pest. Must go and explain to the neighbour how I fell through his fence, hate that.

                    • Doggerel Dave

                      Gotta admit living in a close knit community is not without its little difficulties.....

                    • NafisaSB

                      Seems to me you know what unsettled orchidee and how to solve the issue and settle those nerves. Wow

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        No, i think what I chose to call nerves is really his random response generator kicking in.....

                        • NafisaSB

                          lol - is that it ? really ?
                          maybe too busy with preparations for X'mas

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            I'm wishing you, Orchidee and anyone else an enjoyable Festive Season.
