That has to be the craziest G&S story yet. I do agree on a gold star for Goopy's outfit. :D Thanks for the laugh this morning.

They're all pretty crazy, so that's saying something! O.O

Glad I could make you laugh -- thanks for the comment! :D

And a very merry Christmas to you and your family! Don't get too overheated. :P

Thanks Esme. The air con is on all day everyday. I cooked my rice for the rice salad and I'll cook the potatos for the potato salad this afternoon. Christmas tomorrow.

While I'm not caught up with Ruth's (I will, though, have just been trying to catch up with something else in between), I just had to read the special. And it definitely made me laugh. :D Pretty crazy indeed! And agreed on the gold star for Goopy!

Well, the specials are meant to be stand-alone stories, so you probably didn't miss anything. I'm glad it made you laugh -- that was the object of the exercise. :D That line about Goopy's outfit was the first one I wrote when working on the story -- I think I had it down over a year ago.

Thanks for reading and commenting! :D

Lol, have to agree on the gold star for Goopy fashion sense. This was fun and I can see what a perfect little plotty addition this would have made for your OWBC. Loved the accompanying pictures - they were simple but I can imaging the painstaking care you took with them. :)

That outfit is truly a crime against good taste, isn't it? :P I wish I'd thought to set this up far enough in advance, but alas I am rather slow most of the time.

Simple is best with things like this, unless you're willing to go all out with tons of cc. Since I tend towards the lazy, this is better. Some of the pictures required painstaking care, some practically shot themselves, and some involved foul language directed at the monitor... *whistles innocently*

I'm glad you enjoyed the story! Thanks for reading and commenting! :D
