PUCCI GALORE

Make that a gift Sweetheart and you can have whatever you like and me too for good measure.

I am delighted - delighted beyond all measure that my trusty Moomba has listed my largesse. I am even more delighted that this is not a OT subject - I see that Scottie is No 1 in my list I have forgotten that the award was given to him. Thus we are stating that everything here is to do with British Airways and is, I have to confess, far more pleasant that some of the threads and postings these days.

So now - yes there is a most serious ommission and oversight in the list.


Arise Lord Moomba - Mucci of Muccis - I award you the Diamond Thong of the Order of Mucci to be worn on all solomn occasions. This is awarded for galantry, chivalry, by recommendation of and approval by Sheep (and others!) and a very good job of work.

Now, if you will all excuse me, this Pucci de Mucci needs a gin.

PUCCI GALORE

Bodsy - this is not all "she" wants ( who's "She" the cat's Mother??) and beer swilling is not a qualification to Muccihood.

I have a weakness for real men and I am told that real men drink beer. Most of the London Do people drank Champagne I am reliably informed. Lots of Champagne.

Boddingtons

So I take it you shalln't be dating anyone from the BA Board then!

Other than those of Mancunian origin

PUCCI GALORE

Take whatever you like Darling (do wipe your mouth, pet, it's got foam round it. I hope that it is beer) - I know Mancunia better than you coujld believe. I even know further north than that!

Boddingtons

I don't think I've been called 'pet' before! You're not from Emmerdale are you

Tonight I'll get.........

"Y'Alright cock, usual is it, 6 pints a' Boddies?"

Incidentally, my glass is empty. Although rest assured, there's another 53 cans in the fridge in the cellar. Crates on offer at Morrisons...£12.99

Pet? The memories come flooding back.... Forgive my ignorance, but does the foamy stuff in the yellow package even come from Strangeways any more? Have to admit I was always partial to a good pint of Robinsons myself - good being the operative word, because, unlike most here, it didn't (doesn't?) like to travel.

PUCCI GALORE is a rather clever spelling pun of the famous Bond Girl, Pussy Galore, combined with the surname of the famous designer of the famous 1970s Braniff uniform, the lateEmilio Pucci, whose style and brand is now seeing a revival having been purchased by LMVH.

Therefore the pronunciation "Poo-Chee" is appropriate.

It is less well known that Ms. GALORE starred in a little known BCal commercial - you can see here hanging out the washing in Surbiton at the end.

Is it dry cleanable? I hope it matches his other thongs................

Moomba

My dearest PUCCI I am but your humble servant. Unworthy as I am of this prestigious title I accept it with great humility and pride.

I shall now celebrate with a drink which I think is apropos to this occasion. Alas I have no champagne in the house but I think a Caeser is fitting.

Moomba

I know nought of which you speak sir. The only thongs I own do not need dry cleaning as they are footware desiged for days at the beach.

Boddingtons

Caeser what? Salad?

Boddingtons

Is the second bloke you see Rod Eddington?

Moomba

Caeser is the national drink of Canada which I was introduced to by a great friend of mine and FA for AC Jazz.

Very much like a bloody mary with added secret ingredients.

Boddingtons

So a bit like me saying, I'll have a pint of Velvet

flyclub

Really? Wow! That makes two FTers in that add. PhilH halfway through in the white shirt.

As another ex-BCAL lady that touch of nostalgia has brought tears to my eyes.

But you've got it wrong about the lady with the washing. I think you'll find that's VC10's houseboy Tomasz

Pucci and I are the gorgeous ones!!!!!
