Every time I write Green Wing, I'm plundering stuff that happened at work! I swear some of the staff I work with make the Green Wing staff look sane!

And I just replied to your email! *g*

Poor Guy - he's never going to live that one down! Glad you enjoyed it!

[taurenova]

O.M.G.

*flails*

I can't believe that - wow. I'm like the luckiest Yuletide recipient ever.

"It might have been its final ambition to climb to the top of the Christmas tree, and look, it almost made it. We should leave it there as a testament to its determination."

I can hear this in his voice.

I'd end up quoting the whole thing if I wanted to tell you my favourite bits so instead just *flails*.

You, madam, are perfectly awesome!

[oxoniensis]

Whee, I'm SO glad you like it! I felt so bad that I didn't realise that I was too late to post it on the yuletide archive for you, but elynross said it would be okay to post it here, so at least I got it to you, if a bit late!

It's just a bit of silliness, but hey, that's in keeping! *g*

*twirls you*

It's so nice to have Mac around.

[oxoniensis]

I so hope he's going to be okay!

[ice_crystal]

Hee! The dead mouse :D :D
This was wonderfully spot-on.

"Oh, yeah, that's right. Look at me. Blame me. A man sleeps with his mother once, just once, and suddenly he's capable of anything."

Oh, this had me howling with delight. Heh. Poor Guy INDEED!

And I thought this was just genius:

"You could take it to the canteen. They're always running out of food. Bet they could make a dozen Cornish pasties out of it," Guy suggests.

Mac nods in agreement. "Be better than the stuff they get from the histology lab."

"Yeah, that can be a little gamy sometimes."

"Or too heavy on the offal."

With the back and forth and heh. Heheheheheh.

[oxoniensis]

I plunder way too much real stuff for GW fic! And the mouse seemed appropriate for that lot! *g*

Oh, this had me howling with delight. Heh. Poor Guy INDEED!

I do rather love Guy when he's all defensive about having slept with Joanna! He's just such fun to mock! Ah, Valerie...

With the back and forth and heh. Heheheheheh.

Thing is, I'm totally cheating with these stories, because that's just a watered down version of the sort of conversations at work! Watered down as in, the grossest stuff cut out! *g*

Thanks for reading!

Yay for Xmas GW fic! Especially loved:

She turns to Guy. "Guy," she says, and Boyce is amazed at how much she can fit in one very short name. She sort of rolls it out and fills it with you're a disgusting person and I despise you and I'm never going to have sex with you. It's impressive.

Let's hope her attitude to him stays that way :D and I agree, it's great to have Mac around :D

[loony_daydreams]

Ok I fucked up my italics. You know what I mean. Mery Christmas!

[oxoniensis]

Hee, yes, I knew what you mean!

And I'm with you on the wanting Caroline and Mac to get together - I did rather scream in horror at the ending of S2!
