And I lie like a rug.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Aha! So this is part of a cunning plan to distract me with falsehoods whilst you make off with my turnip...

[murphybabe]

I like turnip.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

So I've heard.

No destroying my plotline I'll take care of that myself

[moonlightmead.livejournal.com]

Perhaps my lack of plot ideas is related to my lack of a kingdom. Clearly I need to take over a neighbouring plot idea kingdom and it will be margaritas turnips plain sailing all the way.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

As soon as you've secured your kingdom I would be happy to trade it for a plot idea turnip.

[halotolerant.livejournal.com]

And if I had a million pounds, I'd buy a great big turnip in the country *g*

A combination of reading the first chunk of 'Les Miserables' and listening to a 'Best of David Bowie' album and eating some takeaway noodles have resulted in A PLOT \o/ (I swear all those elements make sense together and will be recognisable [ish] in said story)

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

I fear that turnips are becoming this year's theme. :D

I shall have to try your plotting "prescription" FOR SCIENCE! Also, I'm hungry

[halotolerant.livejournal.com]

Next year I vote for mangelwurzels...

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Well, we'd get a little more room on which to write a plot so I'm in.

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

But do stoats/sheep/dinosaurs eat turnips? We don't want the RSPCA involved.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Google is my friend... Yes, to assorted livestock particularly feral pigs?

I'm going to have to say no to stoats and dinosaurs... at least the carnivorous dinosaurs and unfortunately we have no remaining herbivorous dinosaurs to ask and I suspect that turnips aren't that old a plant.

Erm... yeah. Also, I suspect the dinosaur monitoring branch of the RSPCA may be leading an easy life. :D

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Were turnips even around in dinosaur days?

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

I reject all turnip related subjects. I wanted a strawberry daiquiri, not a margarita.

I've got half a plot--does that count? I may need several strawberry daiquiris.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Unbeliever! *points*

:D

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

I have no idea... honestly, that David Attenborough's never around when you need him. On the other hand, I bet no self-respecting dinosaur would turn its snout up at a decent cocktail. *nods*

[mab-browne.livejournal.com]

I've finished Other Fandom Project and am in 'rolling up my sleeves and watching episodes' mode.

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

Were turnips - very dangerous around a full moon (just saying...)

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Were-turnips. Okay, I'm terrified now, although were-radishes and were-parsnips are even more frightening.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

I'm sure the lads are patiently waiting their turn.

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

*nods* But if you think were-vegetables are bad, wait until you encounter a were-stoat.

[krisserci5.livejournal.com]

Wow margaritas turnips. . . .finally a way to make desirable to my family!!

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

...Can I have the margarita anyway?

Though I'm not so chuffed; just hoping I don't look up and it's suddenly 15 Aug. :-(

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes you may. I've taught Mead and Snail how to make a great margarita so there's plenty to go round. :D

Well, there's the rough draft deadline first, July 1st... Erm... *freshens both our drinks*

[sw33n3y.livejournal.com]

I'm well and truly in the margarita brigade, but number five really resonated. I guess that means any story by me would have been posted on a couple of dozen turnips. :D

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Well, we'd have to shellac them else it would be a very ephemeral story...

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

Oh god, were we supposed to share? Erm, Meady...?

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Well, I did give you the recipe for making pitchers of margaritas whether you share or not is your business. *g*

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

Meady, me, one pitcher, two straws...

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

The last time we were home in the summer the weather was boiling and we introduced MG to a pitcher of Pimm's for the first time. The poor lad had no idea what he was getting into, particularly as my family add gin. :D

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

LOL - lethal fruit salad - the poor lad!

[natsuko1978.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot!

Historical AU Idea #176 - Our Lads plus something to do with Turnip Townshend, Norfolk Crop Rotation and the Agricultural Revolution.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

That'll keep them on the edge of their seats. :D

[natsuko1978.livejournal.com]

Okay. *takes idea off list*

Personally, I find all that very interesting, but okay.

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

But it would keep them on the edge of their seats. Pros is always up for a new idea.
