View Full Version : Bring Back The Monthly Theme Threads?
Patsy 11-03-2006, 05:00 PM The suggestions and banter were usually more interesting than the end results, but they were still amusing, imo.
Would anyone else like to see them back? Or is it a case of been there, done that?
Dolores 11-03-2006, 05:04 PM I put enjoyed them like to see them back.
Will you be engaging in a power struggle with Cat for them now that Scooby has left, Patsy?!
I was just thinking about them the other day cos of the "1st member of the month" thread ... and I got confused thinking it was a new theme.
Bring 'em back i say.
Fee For All 11-03-2006, 05:06 PM Yes, I say bring 'em back.
Patsy 11-03-2006, 05:08 PM I would never dream of stepping on Cat's toes, but I fear she may be a little distracted to assume the mantle at the moment.
I'd like to see them back and if anyone would like to volunteer, maybe we could have another poll. :w00t:
floopy 11-03-2006, 05:31 PM I'd like to see them back, and I'm happy for anyone to organise it.
Patsy 11-03-2006, 05:36 PM Are you including yourself, floops? You're far more imaginative than me. :)
I have no problems with someone else taking over.
Do you want me to interview?
floopy 11-03-2006, 05:45 PM Are you including yourself, floops? You're far more imaginative than me. :)
nah, not me. I;d rather be a heckler than a helper. :pimp:
I vote Cat again
Groucho 11-03-2006, 05:45 PM I'd like to see them back with Cat in charge.
They had a certain surreal quality when Cat did them.
Fee For All 11-03-2006, 06:04 PM Is that a polite way of saying she's mad as a box of frogs?:huh:
msgirl 11-03-2006, 06:52 PM Is that a polite way of saying she's mad as a box of frogs?:huh:
LARF!!!:unsure:
Cat's take on the monthly theme is a piece of living art, imo!! Of course, if it's handled properly, by members with a lively imagination, and no one in a clique, I think it will be just lovely. :good: :yahoo:
tigger 11-03-2006, 06:59 PM Well I think it's just another excuse to banter and spam. I voted no.
Gotcha!:D
Groucho 11-03-2006, 06:59 PM Of course, if it's handled properly, by members with a lively imagination, and no one in a clique, I think it will be just lovely.
There are no cliques here are there? :unsure:
msgirl 11-03-2006, 07:01 PM Why HELL NO Grouch, we couldn't have that sort of thing scampering about in the ranks could we??!!:glare: :pimp:
Groucho 11-03-2006, 07:03 PM It's been ages since we had a good clique thread. :pimp:
msgirl 11-03-2006, 07:06 PM what, 12 hours, 46 minutes, and 17 seconds ago??:wacko:
Coastie 11-03-2006, 07:49 PM I enjoyed the monthly theme threads and was only think about them the other day on the ferry coming back from the cinema...
Please bring them back! :thumbsup:
If you get your bottom in gear Cat you can be ready to do Agony Aunt April again! :w00t:

Coastie, as I was walking back from the Pub Theme and Indian Food and Dancing evening at mums home...I was thinking just this. (Blimey).
Shall we bring the two dears back again, I think they will have finished their European Tour.
- Are you still having problems with rhubarb
- is Dave still shagging a sooty mitten
I am being enticed.
Coastie 11-03-2006, 08:40 PM I have overcome my rhubarb problem but I have a whole list of other stuff the rough old birds could help me with! :naughty:
I was wondering if May could be Motoring May...mainly cos that's when I'm off on my road trip around America...and well everyone else can share about their days driving experiences etc. How many idiots carved them up? How many people did they see using their mobile phones behind the wheel? How many miles did they travel that day? Brrrm, Brrrrm....

Can I just curb you there coastie..I don't think predicting what May will be is helping the course, if I am taking over the last thing I want is you putting forward ideas willy nilly...a month and a half before that month!! How mad is that.
Coastie...hold your horses.
Coastie 11-03-2006, 08:50 PM Sorry Cat...I'm just very excitable at the moment :w00t:
Bonsai 12-03-2006, 09:45 AM I enjoyed them - they made me giggle.
maxine 12-03-2006, 10:28 AM Ah, go on then.:kid:
Andrea 12-03-2006, 03:18 PM Yep, bring em back, made me giggle too.
If I do it will I get an award?
Patsy 12-03-2006, 04:17 PM It depends how good you are, surely.
And are you assuming that no-one is going to step up to the plate. I think Swerve could be a contender.
I say bring em back - please!
Coastie 12-03-2006, 07:37 PM If I do it will I get an award?
It would encourage people to nominate you for an award Cat :whistle:

Nah - they should nominate Patsy - It was her idea to bring it back!!:whistling:
Coastie 12-03-2006, 07:47 PM Nah - they should nominate Patsy - It was her idea to bring it back!!:whistling:
Shhh...we are trying to get Cat to accept the challenge but of course we'll be voting for Patsy above her...:glare:
I'll just keep quiet then!
Definately bring them back. They were a hoot. I especially liked the month where we drank as much alcohol as we could. Remember it? Nah, I don't think anyone who took part will be able to :pimp:
Dolores 12-03-2006, 08:24 PM Definately bring them back. They were a hoot. I especially liked the month where we drank as much alcohol as we could. Remember it? Nah, I don't think anyone who took part will be able to
wasn't that an all year round one PJ?! hic!
:drinking: :beer: :drinking: :beer::drinking:
Alcoholic Annual!!!
Patsy 12-03-2006, 08:59 PM Nah - they should nominate Patsy - It was her idea to bring it back!!:whistling:
Erm..... thanks?
I don't want the responsibility, I just want to heckle, I mean contribute.

Not to run the thread Patsy - for an award - see above!!
Patsy 13-03-2006, 08:24 AM Oh, oops. :blush:
Thanks. All appreciation greatly.............appreciated.
Bella 13-03-2006, 01:45 PM Well, it looks like everyone is in favour of having the monthlies returned. Is this the first time we have ever universally agreed on anything?!
It has to be Cat though! :) And Patsy for an award, of course.
Patsy 13-03-2006, 01:46 PM Agreed and agreed! :)
Yay, bring em back.. as long as Sister Cat is in charge. I have some moral issues I need to deal with.
Fee For All 13-03-2006, 04:26 PM 'Sister Cat's Monthlies'
It has a certain flow to it.
Patsy 13-03-2006, 04:32 PM :sick: :ghost:
Okey dokey, unless someone wants to have a bash or suggests its put to tender I will resume for April.
Quite looking forward to it now infact, thanks for your kind comments everyone.

errr ... not from me.
i'm just remembering all the bad things about the monthly themes ... the tears ... the tantrums ... the other things beginning with "T" ... it was t'minefield at times wasn't it!
still we have voted unanimously for them to be brought back, so maybe they aren't as minefilled as i thought or maybe we've all got short memories!
Will you be beginning with April or will you start off us with a Mid-March one just to get us into practice for April?

Oh no messing about...straight into April but I wil be planning a big propaganda oops sorry advertising campaign. Any tips?
I vote for Artistic April and think Gigi should be Chairperson.
Coastie 13-03-2006, 07:22 PM You mean you don't want Awards April Peej...:naughty:
(Agony Aunt April...gwan!)
Actually, Agony Aunt April would be good.
Cat, would Tulip and Maeve be up for returning?
Coastie 13-03-2006, 07:34 PM Apparently they are back from the European tour Peej so who knows...although I hear there is a new aunt on the block called Petunia! :unsure: I may be wrong so don't quote me on this!
Patsy 13-03-2006, 09:57 PM How about Asbestos April? Share your amusing "you'll never guess where I found asbestos today" stories.
:laugh:
Coastie 13-03-2006, 09:59 PM You've spent all day thinking that one up having you Pats...:glare:
Patsy 13-03-2006, 10:01 PM Nope. First "a" that came to my mind. Quicksilver, me.
Actually, it was the second. The first was "ar5ehole", but I feared there would be too many people presuming I was talking about them.
Dolores 13-03-2006, 10:15 PM Actually, it was the second. The first was "ar5ehole", but I feared there would be too many people presuming I was talking about them.
I find that offensive ... does that make me one of the ar5eholes?!
:kid: <--- this means if the cap fits!!
Coastie 14-03-2006, 04:24 AM Are we heading towards an Argumentative April? :naughty:
I vote for Artistic April and think Gigi should be Chairperson.
Do you know for a very spilt second I thought that said Autistic April.:bag:
I vote for anything other than gardening...I hate gardening and I seem recall a gardening month last time, and all I could post was a pitcure of my bush:bag:
tigger 14-03-2006, 07:57 AM Heck judging by the sore throat thread, I think we need to have another ailment April. It would seem it could be the longest running thread ever!
floopy 14-03-2006, 11:16 AM I've found a few unusual A-words which I put forward to the mighty Cat for consideration as prospective themes for April. I have given the meanings alongside. I am particularly fond of the last suggestion.
alectryomachy - cock fighting (I'll leave it to your imagination)
algedonics - science of pleasure and pain (ying and yang etc)
anagraphy - art of constructing catalogues (a group project possibly)
adeniform - shaped like a gland (amusingly shaped vegetables anyone?)
alphitomancy - divination using loaves of barley (fortune telling with bread)
azuline - blue (anythign blue goes)
alieniloquy - speech on subjects other than the matter at hand; off-topic speech (snigger)
tigger 14-03-2006, 11:30 AM You're gonna be sent to bed without any dinner at this rate floops.:kid:

When is it you go back to work??
floopy 14-03-2006, 11:35 AM April :pimp: , but don't you worry, I'll not forget you. :naughty:
Actually, Agony Aunt April would be good.
Cat, would Tulip and Maeve be up for returning?
Cat, it's been over 24 hours. Why am I still waiting on an answer? Will they be returning or not? I fancied them both.

They might be, but then again they might not.
Either way their is no disputing their sassyness.
Coastie 17-03-2006, 08:02 AM Maybe you should stick a rocket up their bottoms Cat! :naughty:
Floops...my head hurts now...:sad:
