Llamas and Pirates - Message Board

What an unpleasant avatar you have fredfrank.
Llamas should be fed often, and preferably with expensive chocolates.

Hi Jabberwok, much as I would love to feed you, unfortunlely pirates never, ever give up their stash of chocolate, we even have a chocolate submarine hidden away in our secret hide out.

I guess they will have to stick with the cud chewing.

Don't even think about our chocolate. It's our treasure and you can't have it. Besides, I think llamas are allergic to chocolate.

Foolish fools, you know not of what you babble.
Chocolate was a mesoamerican beverage, quaffed from small golden cups by llamas of old whilst admiring the view from a mountaintop.
Of course, the Aztecs claimed it as theirs, but what else do you expect from plundering conquerors?
Chocolate is our birthright. I'm sure PDAZ and Flopsy will be along to support my argument soon. Oddly, males do not seem quite as affected by the power of the bean.

Qmel	Glenda, I could have my avatar serve the llamas food! Reply #246. Nov 10 08, 3:43 PM

My misguide friend Jabberwok, chocolate was made for pirates. How else would you explain the chocolate gold coins we have in our treasure box?

Reply #247. Nov 10 08, 3:49 PM

Lost a "D" somewhere in there.

Fools! Chocolate is the prize of the Andes, not made for pirates but stolen by the scurvy knaves... fear not, Montezuma will have his revenge on you gluttonous convicts!

(Okay, I feel better now that little rant is done, pass the fruit and nut, please Jabber.)

>>>How else would you explain the chocolate gold coins we have in our treasure box?

So that's why Father Christmas has been avoiding certain areas of the globe. What a foul and Piratical dastardly deed, to snatch chocolate from the mouths of babes and children.
Shame on you and your stolen hoard.

Have you been to Montezuma's revenge in Duke Street flopsy?
Best chocolate on the planet.
*oops*
Llamas don't spit much, but they drool excessively when fantasising about luxury items.

Sadly not... though I have it on my list of things to force on my friends when I visit. Last time I made them go to see Ralph, next time Montezuma!

Ha ha ha, you know what we call Montezuma's revenge in Texas?
It's the severe case of diarrhea you get from from drinking water in Mexico. Somebody has a great sense of humor ;-b

They actually make a chili, lime and tequila truffle with that name, but I think the shop is now called Montezuma's.

"Montezuma operates from an old piggery in Sussex but its name acknowledges its loftier inspiration - the Mayans invented the chocolate drink in around 600BC, and the Aztec emperor Montezuma II would drink around 50 mugs a day, despite its mild laxative effect (hence "Montezuma's revenge"). "Chocolate was combined with herbs and spices from the very beginning," says Helen Pattinson, owner of Montezuma along with her husband Simon. "It was only when sugar came along that we got diverted down the sweet route. We're reverting, not innovating."

So what about the choc-ice? Who invented that then - Llama Amundsen? (and no it wasn't Robert Llama Scott).

I love Chinatown RJ, and I go there often when I pop up to London. I've got a couple of places that I like to eat, but that's not one of them.
Being a veggie, I tend to prefer some of the Buddhist restaurants.
