If you had to spend 3 days with a FG ner

I have had no choice but to be holed up inside for three days with a Forum Gardener, Mr O. He's my husband so that's cheating.
We have had the builders in drinking my tea, singing loudly and pharting. I can't complain as they have done a very good job.

As Mr O was ill, this meant i could not leave the house at all for three days and it occurred to me:

If you were shut in a house for three days witha FG.... who would you choose and why.

You can't cheat by saying all of them as you can only give one name.

Come on......... be honest..... let's find out stuff?

Sounds like a great idea Nomad. When are you going to do that then?

Wow Oscar this took a little thinking, three days can prove to be a very long time. I like the majority here but since I can only choose one person I went through each person in my mind. First of all I would have to find that person enlightening and 'entertaining' , for lack of a better description, to carry me through those 3 days. I came out with 2 names that caused me a problem in deciding. But I settled on Carolly.

One of the 2 names was OpenMind

Because we could hash out our differences on the 'value' of sub-atomic particles, wave motion, the 'carrier',and the effects on humanity of both. I'm not going to elaborate on this here but am simply explaining why he was one of my choices. I decided against him though for the simple reason that he knows more about it than I do and by the time the 3 days were up my hair would be standing on end and it would take me years to 'unconfuse' myself.

The other name was Carolly.

Now Carolly, to me she is some sort of exotic creature that I would like to paint or write a story about. She had once mentioned to me that she had 'worked the markets' and no more was said about it. Now, hmmm, what are the markets and why was she so cold there. I have never been to that part of the world so what I know of it has come out of books. So when Carolly mentioned being so cold at the markets my mind conjured up scenes from novels of 17th century England. Now I know that the market of today is not the same as it was in that time period, but then perhaps in some small ways it still is. So for 3 days Carolly could paint all sorts of pictorial scenes in my mind of what the market looks like today, what is sold there, we can discuss the differences of the old times compared to the new etc. She could regale me with stories of what takes place there and the individuals she had worked with and beside. And I would sit, raptly entranced, imagining her in 17th century England.

So Carolly is my final choice and the above is why.

Re: If you had to spend 3 days with a FG ner

I would pick Carolly too,,, mainly cos we have known each other for about 4 years now and become good friends,,, but we have never met ,, yet also i dont talk much, but Carol talks loads so she could just entertain me
