Confessions of a tidier-upper

[venta]

onebyeone: I've got your Fighting Techniques of the Ancient World, and an Asterix book.
wimble: I've got your Stiff Little Fingers anthology.

Actually, they were quite recent loans, so it's more of a statement of fact than a confession.

However, most of these I should be (a) feeling quite guilty about and (b) returning:

leathellin: HOL rule book.
broadmeadow: History of the Underground.
snow_leopard: The Island of the Day Before and The Unbearable Lightness of Being
edling: Rosetta Stone CD.
davefish: Sunglasses case. And, apparently, a print out of the confirmation details for your and mprh's flight to Leipzig this year. Why ?

Not to mention some shamefully overdue items belonging to non-LJers.

Anyone else want to make a convincing case for me having something of theirs which they'd like found and given back ?

Who is this imposter mprh, and what've they done with the real mrph?

[venta.livejournal.com]

Bah. You know who I mean :)

[wimble.livejournal.com]

Yup, you've also got my Beast of Alice Cooper ;-)

On the other hand, I've got a duff back, as my (and narenek's) tidying efforts have just revealed.

So we're sitting down for a cup of tea.
Well, he's sitting down. And I'm whimpering, 'cos I can't move.

[mrph.livejournal.com]

I don't. But I'd like to find out, as it seems he's nicked my room for Leipzig... :)

[mrph.livejournal.com]

Well, he doesn't seem to post much anyway. :)

leathellin: HOL rule book.

Ah - so that's where that went.
It's okay, lanfykins still holds the record.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Er, no, he hasn't. He apparently already went to Leipzig this year - you must have spent the weekend drugged in a box, and then had false memories implanted.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Ouch :(

Time for an appointment with the osteopath ?

[wimble.livejournal.com]

Hopefully, time top sit down for half an hour or so, and the muscles will have relaxed again. Until then, I can't get to the phone, let alone the oesteopath. (A PC, on the other hand...)

I'll just have to be more careful moving the rest of the stuff.

[wimble.livejournal.com]

Does she have a turntable to play it on?

[mrph.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. Yeah. I think that explains a lot. Although it means a few of my so-called friends must be implicated in the conspiracy.

They'll pay for that. The bastards.

[leathellin.livejournal.com]

Maybe in a box somewhere.

Hang on... how do we know you're the real Morph? There's a 50% chance you're the evil doppleganger.

Was there a CD, left in a CD player, a long time ago? The Divine Comedy maybe? To be honest it's been so long that either I may be imagining it, or you may have given it back years ago. Either way, it doesn't really matter, as I haven't been actively missing it ;)

[davefish.livejournal.com]

That sounds quite close to the truth in some ways.

And as for the sunglasses case, I thought that it as completely eaten by mould.

[lathany.livejournal.com]

I'd second the whole oesteopath idea. In the meantime you have my sympathy.

[bloodnok.livejournal.com]

I could really use my spare set of spirit level bubbles back.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Um, you can have two of them back. They're safely stored in a glass of water on the window sill. The smallest one, though, I'm very much afraid might have burst the other day :(

[venta.livejournal.com]

There was. Where I have put it is a very different question. I have learnt through experience that I store boxless-CDs in very strange places in an attempt to prevent scratching.

It was fin de siècle, and it was already scratched beyond playing one track. I will hunt it.

Hmm. I also have Garbage which left in chrestomancy's stereo when he handed it over before scarpering. I wonder where I put that.

[venta.livejournal.com]

No, I demoulded it. So merely slightly nibbled.

[phlebas.livejournal.com]

Fighting Techniques of the Ancient World, and an Asterix book.
Pure and applied!

[onebyone.livejournal.com]

I think you have my CD of Peter Gabriel's Passion too, in a DVD case, because Jez still has the CD case. Well, not Peter Gabriel's Passion, Jesus's Passion, but Peter Gabriel's musical efforts on the topic.

No especial hurry to get any of these things back before you're sure you're done with them.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Aye, yes, I know where that is too.
