Quote: chipolata @ January 7 2011, 9:19 AM GMTWhile he was coming in, Chip twisted round to get something out of his Jack Bauer man-bag and agonising pain shot through the trunk of his body. He nearly collapsed in the street. The pain's gone now, though.
Oh no! Are you okay?
Quote: EllieJP @ January 7 2011, 9:22 AM GMTOh no! Are you okay?
Yes, thanks. But I had to lean against a wall for a while, until the pain went away enough for me to walk.
I like you use of the word trunk.
I like 'trunkie'. Both the word, and the object.

You just want to see my handsome good looks on a daily basis.
Chip said I had to take it down, it was bad luck being so good looking or something like that.
Yeah your Christmas one... but get up one fo your other ones.

If you leave your decorations up past twelth night it's meant to be very bad luck. But since twelth might was Wednesday, and you only took your Christmas avatar down yesterday, you're pretty much doomed, bigfella!
Doomed. Doomed. Doomed.

You really don't like flat roofs do you?
Is in a sad mood and has a deadline in 2 hours. It's only 2 hours worth of work but I can't motivate myself 
12TH Night surely goes into Thursday morning. So Thursday is the time to take them down. Plus it is mainly taking greenery outside that you have brought ib, plus you can leave them up all year and it is ok - plus you could take them down on the 2nd Feb which is Candlemas - 40 days after Christmas which was the tradition up to the Victorian era.

So Bigfella's doomed, right?
