Enter the Watch, stage left.(A 22 ct gold watch, of course). She cackles fiendishly - ha ha-eth, chortles she-eth, no-one will recognise me NOW! She surveys the strange three-humped creature asleep on the ornately carved love seat and immediately leaps into action, to slay this Awful creature of Myth and Legend - the three-humped camel, an abomination in the sight of nature. 'Avast, me hearties!' she decryeth, lashing it with her watchstrap 'begone! Begone foul fiends, back to where thou belongeth, back on the Tip!' The three-humped camel stirreth not but gentle whistlings and snortings cometh from its hideous three heads. The Watch thinketh it is time to go. M |

As darkness falls, the lass from Downunder, exhausted from the days happenings in the land of Gen looks for somewhere to rest her weary head...........she spies a cloak thrown carelessy over the oak loveseat, and wonders if the owner would begrudge her the use of it. |

Joy Could you tidy yourself up a bit please, instead of sprawling all over the only bit of greensward that is left?And wipe that silly smirk off your face, its not your dress he is interested in.... Slander is a spoken insulting untruth, libel is a written insulting untruth. (Witch gazes longingly at the starry firmament above her head. She longs to fly, free as a..a..well, witch, to Other Places held in fond and wistful memory, where excommunicants once were Kings (and Queens) of the Board, where merry laughter floated across the balmy air. Actually, she thinks she had better hurriedly stop being a witch, she really doesnt want to be ducked and then burnt alive at the stake. Hm. She will now ponder her new persona before the dawn) M. |

(Puff of pink smoke) Young Scarlett!! Stop thou matchmaking! (Settles herself on the ornately carved loveseat) As You Can See - Me n Merlin are splitting up! He has gone over to 'The Other Side' And was very angry, because The Witch turned his master, the Sheriff into an ugly green frog. (which I actually thought was an improvement myself) Anyway, I digress, Lady Joy, wherefore art, has thou been? And Allan (me laddo) it was MY potion thats been getting everyone a bit worse for wear! NOT the witches! (I DO wish some folk would read their scripts properly) Ms Merlin, whips out her cauldron, and begins to chant whilst adding various spirited concoctions, from a later century. Well she is a Magician dont forget! |

Many have now settled for the night Will, verdicts elsewhere have them exhausted. I must sleep now too, a difficult day tomorrow. |

Oh, Robin, thank you, what a relief. I feel quite protected with you around. To sleep, perchance to dream of a wonderful GC place with no cares [not Neverland though, please!! ]. :-) Joy |

M'Lady Joy. You are as impatient as the wind. A light will soon shine, I promise you. Meanwhile rest for the night and dream of more agreeable times ahead. |

'Ah, Fair Maid of Kent,' says Allan, returning from his sojourn by the stream and gazing around the semi-deserted clearing, 'It doth appear the our band of Good Company hath not yet returned from their daily tasks of righting wrongs; hunting down those that bear false witness to the evil Sheriff and all enemies of our great and noble true King, Richard Coeur de Lyon; and shooting a couple of deer for tea. Come, Fair Maid, have a cooling draught of this delicious ale and tell me who your dressmaker is, I have seldom seen such exquisite stitchery in all my travels'. |

Allan A’Dale crawls out from under the bush where he has been sleeping since the previous night’s revelries. The inside of his mouth feels like a cat’s bed. He recalls that he has learned before that he has no head for strong drink. Shame he did not remember this earlier. Looking around, he spies Robin resting against a tree, yet watchful as ever. A lost lass sits sadly gazing at a pair of scarlet knickers trimmed with white lace. The fabric is very fine and delicate – Allan has seldom seen anything so exquisite. Beside her stands the Maid of Kent, dusting herself down in a very irritated way and looking distinctly dishevelled. Where was she the previous night? Allan seems to recall that she drank some of the witch’s potion and disappeared. That witch has a lot to answer for. Allan turns his head rather too swiftly and immediately regrets it. Round and round in front of his eyes fly tiny winged green frogs, pink mooses and a purple cat. What on earth was that wine made from? Swallowing bravely, he opens his eyes again and stands up. His hose feel very hot around his legs, and are inclined to wrinkle when he sits down. He wishes he could change into something more comfortable – but alas, that cannot be. Having donned this disguise when he fled for his life, Allan now must perforce continue with the charade. He wanders slowly off to the stream, looking for a cooling drink and a place to ponder quietly. |
