Gremlins and Shamblies.

[wraithwitch]

Yesterday the boiler behaved as if it had a gremlin inside it which was trying to get out with a sledge hammer. Seriously - the metal casing was buckling. So we turned the boiler off in the hope of stopping an immanent gremlin/boiler explosion. The Oast is a little bit cold today. My room is 13 degrees

Personally, I'd bet on a kobold, not a gremlin.

Possibly depends whether the boiler is feeling more old-Germanic or WWII American - I have yet to ascertain. Whichever little fey bastard it is it can stop fekking around with the boiler else I'll hit it with an iron skillet!

As long as you don't upset any lurking brownies... ;)

[wraithwitch]

Heaven forefend. Perhaps I should leave out some milk, or bread and honey...

One I will have to give a miss, but the (potentially) bigger and more mysterious job I'm seeing if I can wrangle for a month or so down the line =)

Are you still able to do Izzy's stuff or is this one of the commissions you need to turn down. I hope everyone wants AB - or else should I panic and scream, what is an art nouveau spaceship doing at my sister's wedding????!!!!

[wraithwitch]

Is okay darlin' your sister's stuff will get done, worry not, 'tis in hand =)

[ketchgirl]

Yay...umm...not complete with spacecraft I take it ;p

[wraithwitch]

Ha! Yeah, 'Izzy, I know you wanted wild vines, but y'know, I thought what it was lacking was a hint of scifi - so I stuch in some spaceships instead of roses - isn't it great?!'
