EAR! EAR !


The Beast was hoping for a slothful evening of yawning and scratching in front of the TV , perhaps , periodically rousing oneself to feast on tasty morsels from the fridge and quaff a foaming tankard of orange squash or two .
Sadly , my plans were scuppered by a demanding call from Cafe C .
Mr C had decided to redecorate , and it had to be done NOW . I was expected to present myself , pretty damn sharpish or there would be hell to pay .
The one quibble I have about decorating is, I NEVER get to do the glamorous rollering , I always get stuck with the tedious cutting in/ edges .
I dream of one day being allowed to roller......I imagine its heavenly .
***Gazes wistfully into the middle distance***
Anyway (Piggies favourite word) , the edging brush I was provided with was rubbish , If Van Gogh ( Natemare insists its Rembrandt but that's because he is an IDIOT) had to contend with equipment like this , its no wonder the blighter hacked off his ear in frustration , it was like trying to get a sharp edge using a feather duster , however we struggled on .
After about 5 hours of excruciating daubing we finally slapped the last coat of 'London Mud' (That's a colour , its not a wattle and daub hut) on the last wall .
I have to say the colour combo Of London Mud ,plus a dark and brooding Mauve and a refreshing white with a hint of lemon on opposing walls and insets , looked very fresh and sophisticated .
Cafe C is now suitably refreshed for the fast approaching Summer season.
I wish the same could be said of the 'previously enjoyed' ragged old Beast :-(

What would Mr C say to abstract mural created by a naked woman swinging through the cafe in a harness with a dripping brush in either hand?

I'M THE ONE THAT MADE YOU CORRECT IT TO VAN GOGH! YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO CYA...

The combination of Mud and Mauve?
It doesn't do it for me somehow.
I suspect it could make Vincent want to remove his other ear.

You must get that mangina of yours examined by a doctor while you're having your malfunctioning ovaries examined.

I hope the paint fumes at least provided a nice buzz.

Well, at least you have both ears and you didn't end up with a social disease like Van Gogh.

That's probably why he cut off his ear and sent it to his whore. The message: Bitch! Next time, you tell me right in my ear when you have syphilis so I'll know to wear condom!

I hope the new walls pass the health and hygiene tests otherwise you will have to paint them all white,.,

Someone else who has never been to Cafe C's Caberet Nite That's probably why he cut off his ear and sent it to his whore. The message: Bitch! Next time, you tell me right in my ear when you have syphilis so I'll know to wear condom!

I think he was just attention seeking

Leah said...

No one will ever trust me with the edging, I only get to roller.

BEAST said...

Leah , you are like my evil twin

Inexplicable DeVice said...

Perhaps someone could spend 5 hours of excrutiating labour daubing you, dear Beast, to leave you suitably refreshed?

I'm not offering, mind.

Like The 4 th bridge Mr IVD , The is a dedicated team constantly rubbing down , priming and touching up the Beast. Its a never ending battle against the elements

Ooh I know what you mean, I love rollering but I am kind of lazy and never put down plastic on the floor so the floorboards end up a bit Jackson Pollackish. Maybe next time you'll be allowed to roller!

The Mistress said...

IVD: Someone should spend 5 hours hosing him down to get the stench out!

Like your knickers Miss MJ , a good soak in bleach should do it

Ms Scarlet said...

Have you not got the infamous Dyson multifunctional big dipper brush...? Though be mindful where you stick it [it's not a banana].
Sx

BEAST said...

Miss Scarlet , I think the fabled 'Big Dipper' is an urban legend . A fantasy Dyson accessory if you will , I am sure I will never own such a wonder
