Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I left my english-dwarvish dictionary at home, so it had better be North Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Could the threatening little dwarf be persuaded to do my housework. Just that I am still not quite better and Alex is ill and his Dad is coming to stay tomorrow, so we desperately need to do some cleaning!!

Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike There is a dwarf in the room with you The Dward throws and axe, the axes misses you and lands on the floor making the piles of empty pizza boxes, cast off undies and pornographic (but tasteful ) literature look even less appealing. The Dwarf picks up his axe, wipes some peperoni off the blade and leaves You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike A hollow voice says Plugh Dungeon Master Paul If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 No our little cottage doesn't have lots of twisty passages, in fact it doesn't have any passages at all, it is too small!!! 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 You just have not pressed the wall in the right place to find the secret rooms, dungeons, rocky crawls, narrow gaps, 2 pit room (with plant) etc etc In fact you've not found the last set of cameras that my soon to be departed minion Al has placed as part of his going away present to your disgruntled neighbour Paul If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 A huge green fierce snake bars the way! Rach - Dwarfs do little apart from walk round the corner, throw an axe (or nasty sharp knife) at you, curse and run off. Oh, and snore. So I think housework is out of the question. The bear might be more helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Noger, What bear, I like bears - is it friendly. It can live in our spare room - apart from when Alex's Dad is staying. Paul, Did I tell you we moved about a month ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 >Invent You are carrying the following A bottle of water A bird in a cage A small axe Some Nurofen Some Honda car keys >Drop bird The bird flies at the snake and kills it You are in an office There is empty cage on the floor There is a dead snake nearby A bird is flying overhead Your headache is getting worse, you only have 4 turns to live If there's beer, we'll drink it.

Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Well Pauls memory of Collosal cave is obviously better than mine, but the bear is over towards the volcano I think. He is chained up poor wee mite, so you unlock him, and he very grateful. Just right for housework training Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Noger, Cool - right, the bear it is then. Does he have a name? *wink* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 I've just scared myself with the thought that I 1st played Colosal Cave Adventure (on a DEC 10) in October 1979 Rachael would you have been under 2 then ? OMG I too old to be in a bike shed with you lot Paul If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Yeah....clear off grandad No name for the bear Rach. Although I am sure he would like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 I'll just do a quick search on the recent "how old are you" threads for Noger and see what I find Paul If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 In October 1979 I would have been the grand age of 15 months old Can I call the bear Noger, in honour of you for finding him for me? What are his favourite foods, does he like salady stuff? Would he prefer marmalade? I am sure he will feel at home in our little cottage, I hope so anyway!

Hibster. Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 Noger You didn't actually give a number but, when do you next have a birthday with a zero as the 2nd digit "........and it turns out most of the owners are other thirtysomething computer blokes (see previous thread) living in the south........." Lets call the bear after those unmentionable green things that various of the GoF's have called root veg (he he he) Paul If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Every platform that has ever been invented. I used to play it on an IBM 3081 mainframe ! Have a dos based one knocking around somewhere. 4 years to go paul. Rach - I think the bear eats Trolls ? Plenty of those grumpy beasts around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 This just sounds better and better - do they have to be fresh trolls, will he eat frozen ones (if I defrost them first of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Elizabeth Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Frozen is OK. A few salady things now and again for his vits... But not too much beer...nothing like a bear with a sore head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
