Could I suggest an amendment? How about peacocks and gooses and kittehs? (Yes I spelled it like that on purpose)
hectorloch
08-12-11, 02:03 PM
I'll Need to ask the President - she hasn't got a kitty, though 'cos she's got no dough today.
How will the kitties get on with the peacocks ?
hectorloch
08-12-11, 02:04 PM
Sorry - kittehs ! That gobblies not back is he ?
pinkster73
08-12-11, 02:04 PM
I'm embarrassed to say I don't have a peacock :(. I was waiting for more kittehs
1032aaah yes I have to introduce myself as the president;),
well I am a fanatic birthlover, and as you all know there has to come a1033, because otherwise, the name of this club isn't right:rolleyes::rolleyes:

08-12-11, 02:08 PM
Oh the rejection. Maybe I should start a club called The crazy cat ladies who have a super clean no cat urine smell here club. Or something like that. But it will be hard if I can't have a signature
hectorloch
08-12-11, 02:09 PM
TL will have to provide wire netting (for coins, of course) if we're to let the kittehs in.
pinkster73
08-12-11, 02:14 PM
Ok hold on I will go get a peacock.....
pinkster73
08-12-11, 02:18 PM
Ok I have a peacock now. His registered name is Martin.
pinkster73
08-12-11, 02:21 PM
I WAS saving my hoard of gems to get kittehs but its not working out. So I got Martin. He's pretty happy I adopted him :)

Martin is IN !

Can you really still buy a peacock ?

08-12-11, 02:27 PM
Yes I can. Go look :)
Mogwai4111
08-12-11, 02:28 PM
Well now, all the more reason to buy a peacock. I suppose being home to the fastest racing rooster of all time isn't grounds for membership, is it Sissy?
I can't :rolleyes:don't have the gems either:p
i want a picture pinkster:o first see than believe, and moggie the fastest is in but first a pic:o

I'm on Android so I can't do screenshots but if there's someone out there nice enough to take one for me feel free. Or I could have kooky or mogwai or hector vouch for me, they're neighbors of mine :)
hectorloch
08-12-11, 02:35 PM
Yes I can. Go look :)
I did look. I thought you were pulling my leg. I was going to write something like "Oh yes, I see him, but is your blue outhouse not a bit small for him ? "
What a laugh. The Peacock was offered on a limited offer expiring after, say, 3 days. It's not available in my Store. I've looked in all sections but I presume you found yours under Animals. What an elaborate dupe if the technology is sufficiently clever to remove it from those who got the limited and exclusive offer. If they're that clever, they can just sort the non-responding neighbour request now - should be a dawdle in comparison :)
On the brighter side, we've got new members.

I don't know for sure yet, but have a feeling that in the interest of unfairness (i.e. giving Cogburn every chance to succeed) the next race will be a straight dash with lane assignments so he can concentrate on the feet below him instead of the hooves above him.
hectorloch
08-12-11, 02:59 PM
The Joint Clerks have also made a site visit to Applicant driftboutique's Farm and have found Walter to be well housed, regularly fed and generally in good care - but I'm sure a wee pic can be found from somewhere.

Originally, yes. If it's an Android thing then it seems in fairness that's ok - the owners seem to up against it in many other areas.

08-13-11, 01:55 AM
The latest FS poll comes with the suggestion that more players would prefer swans over gooses. Curious given that we have no (official) water yet. Anyway, we at the FPGC will have to up our game here.
If we don't we'll have to change the name and that'll mean yet another revision to the Constitution. Cripes - the Joint Clerks will need some persuasion over that not to mention a whopping big overtime fee !
hectorloch

hectorloch
08-13-11, 06:23 PM
The Joint Clerks and Secretaries, Harry and Archie, having considered the application of Sasha for membership of the FPGC, find the same to be in good order and have entered the said Sasha into the roll of membership.

Hi :) But it seems to be still available on some iDevices. Bit of a TL marketing swizzle there but ... well, onwards and upwards.
Bluey's is a great story :)

Hectorloch visited my farm and noticed my pet peacock. He's living in a meadow with Stinky the skunk and the for now nameless horse and unicorn. He was named chickenpeacock by my 5 year old, when Hectorloch asked for his name. I took a picture but photobucket is not working on my ipad today so Hectorloch will have to vouch for me for now. He would love to be part of the club, especially if his imaginary friend Gijs the Goose may also join!
of course welcome chickenpeacock, and your imaginary friend Gijs is now visible1057:o:o
hectorloch
08-15-11, 02:13 PM
Harry and Archie, the Joint Clerks, are pleased to confirm that their Posting Clerk's visit to lauralafarm's farm was entirely satisfactory and that chickenpeacock is an eligible member.

:they look so good hector:o
Yes, and fine additions to the working of the Farm they are too - one of them does the Accounts and the other deals with the Suppliers. Soon I hope to discover which of them does which :)
Harry is surrounded by lots of gnomes and Archie just 2 in front of him.
Why is that Hector:confused::rolleyes:;)
hectorloch
08-18-11, 08:13 AM
Archie is in the Assistant Farmer's garden and he doesn't own as many gnomes as we do. But things are getting busy gnomewise now and so Archie may see some more gnomes soon. Two very soon, as it happens as the Figs and the Turnips are high up the third level.
What's your secret ? The entire Forum is tuned in and waiting.

My peacock Martin gets chased around my farm by my tuxedo cat and when he gets that exclamation mark above his head showing he's ready to be collected it actually makes him look like he's alarmed about the kitty. It's good for a giggle. (I'm easily amused)

So, the FPGC has to change its name to the FPGTGGC ?
I have to say that with Xmas coming up - and given the order history at TL - this is probably about the right time to be thinking of ordering up our turkeys.
Even above a gooses, Sissy ? This is a constitutional upheaval !

hectorloch
08-19-11, 12:16 AM
And membership here, Mrs B :) Surely a persuasive factor in your decision :)
Personally, I thought it a bit of a swizz being led to believe it was a limited offer but there you are. The morality of modern marketing. Truly, it was limited - because it stopped. They just forgot to mention it would be openly available again at a future date.
hectorloch
08-19-11, 12:54 AM
OK, Sissy. I've spoken to the Joint Clerks. The way they are going to approach all this is to change the Constitution to include a "Fowl Rule" which will extend the categories of fowl. Membership will then be open to those who don't fall foul of the fowl rule.
They'll get this done and republished ASAP. They're under a lot of pressure just now from a tidal wave of new clients wanting a Constitution for the emergent "Count to 3 Club". I've seen the notes; seems to be something to do with freedom of expression and the democratic process. However, don't be alarmed, Sissy - you may be assured we'll have none of that nonsense here :D:cool:

I think we go for ALL of them - in time. I think we should continue with the gooses because that has an existing momentum - then we go for turkeys. Personally, I think we have a good chance of selling the idea of turkeys to TL as we move towards Thanksgiving and Xmas.

Anyone spotting an unregistered peacock should report the matter here on this thread. The process is totally anonymous - both to the snitcher and the snitched - as the information will not be released outwith this thread.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. No offense meant to any Amway selling members. Whew its hard work being politically correct :)

I'd never seen this thread before. I'm too poor to buy a peacock. TL would have to donate one to me. Sorry:(.
PS: gooses would go well with the new pirate theme. I mean, if we could have a freshwater stream flowing into the pirates' sea...the gooses could live by the freshwater;).

The Clerks have been out and about and have visited the farm of Heather Hill - down my wall if any of the Independent Auditors would like to visit - where they found Peacock Peter in good health and well treated. They are happy to propose that Peter and his owner be admitted to membership.

Dear President and Posting Clerk to the Joint Clerks and Secretaries of the FPGC,
Polly Petunia Peacock respectfully submits her application for membership in the FPGC. She belongs to gitten and resides on Phoebe's Farm. She is a very happy and mischievous peacock who loves her farm family and would be an excellent addition to the club. She is anxiously awaiting your decision. Unfortunately, her owner has no idea how to post pictures but other members have her address. Thank you.
Sincerely,
gitten for PPP
hectorloch
09-02-11, 03:47 PM
OK, Gitten, we'll send the Inspectors out. In the meantime, Polly Petunia goes on the list.
Would a Gitten nbr post a pic pls :)

Well done, Mrs B. I'll wake up the Joint Clerks and get them on to updating the list !
Live from Texas, you say. This new animation is quite something !
gonzo must wear a hat when he is from texas, welcome gonzo:o
Well, aren't I just dandy. Somewhere I knew that peacocks were male, but I have all girl animals in my house. I haven't officially been accepted into membership - no welcome for me - Perhaps because I need to re-name my peacock - it will be a chore because I've only picked out girl names. I will put my feeble mind to it. Oh how it feels to be a fool in public - Yikes!!!!! In the meantime I hope you will allow PPP to stay on the list - too bad, just a great name.

Ha ha pollys a boy. Just kidding. How about Paul petunia?
hectorloch
09-04-11, 10:48 PM
Well, we at the FPGC are fully trained on this modern PC and stuff - the Joint Clerks attended a seminar and gave us the gist - and so we avoid these gender traps. Not a word was said about Iris for example - other than that he was confused.
And PPP is most welcome - fully registered and everything (well, not fully paid up as such yet - we let them settle for a bit before hitting them with the subscription and the one time only annual levy notice) :)
Well, I don't know. Went down to the farm and found PPP so embarrassed he was hiding behind a tree. Would not talk to me about name. I am thinking i am going to have to change it. Is that allowed by FPGC?
:oI think Pollu Petunia is a great name, I wouldn?t change it:rolleyes:
;)sorry Polly not pollu;)
hectorloch
09-05-11, 07:24 AM
Well, there you have it, Gitten, all the way from the top !
I love the name too but it would work better for my goose ( female right?) just as soon as they arrive. So, I am just going to have to give my peacock a new name - he is still hiding behind the tree because he is so embarrased that I don't know the difference between a peacock and a peahen So I told him that he could be Morelli even if he has to be registered as PPP! He is considering my offer.
hectorloch
09-06-11, 03:33 PM
Goose is unisex, I think. But gander's the boy.
Change of Name ? Petition needed - and a new name obviously. Joint Clerks will draft and leave name blank meantime.
Thank you. I would like to petition to change the name of the peacock belonging to gitten and residing on Phoebe's Farm from Polly Petunia Peacock (PPP) to Morelli.
pinkster73
09-06-11, 09:40 PM
Morelli is very happy about this :)
pinkster73
09-06-11, 09:45 PM
Gitten, you could just make it Paul E. Petunia
or PP Morelli ( he doesn't have to know where the PP stands for:o) but we know;)

What is this "dismissed deputy clerk" in Hectors signature?
It was an ill fated promotion. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter the Deputy Clerk was dismissed for unreportable behaviour. But things move slowly at the FPGC and while I'm told I'm high on the list for re-assignment, it hasn't happened yet. The position of Deputy Clerk might be dispensed with but the Time and Motion Inspectors are still compiling their report. So, I'm in a bit of a limbo jobwise.

Don't worry, Sissy. I'm sure no one wanted coal mining. In fairness, it was a cave we got, not a coal mine :)

Right, I thought I was on the weather channel there for a minute. The winds have blown. The weather cowardly British are emerging from their left over bomb shelters (mainly because they are all flooded now) and the Joint Clerks have come out from under the bed - all just in time for tonight's demonstration which I see has another aquatic element to it. It reminds us that not only do we not have gooses on our farms, we have no constructible (sic) water either.
