It must be a coincidence, but I swear that I've heard each of these words - singly or in various partial combinations - in reference to Andee McDowell since her appearance in "Sex, Lies and Videotape" in the late 1980's.
Well, maybe 'marsupial' was mentioned about her co-star, Laura San Giacomo and 'trombone' in referenece to other co-stars Peter Gallagher and James Spader. but I'm pretty sure the other words were in various direct and/or tangential reference to Ms. McDowell.
Congratulations. You have all survived my absence, and have shown signs of being able to post here without my constant supervision. This is a great step forward. Perhaps one day, one, some or even all of you will be able to write witty and interesting posts on your own blogs. I know that must make some of you feel very nervous, but it is not as far-fetched or ridiculous as it sounds. I was like you once, honestly.
No, not really Mark, there are too many words, and everyone else has used a capital for the first part of the last word. I'm just getting exasperated by this.
I have no idea what my third word means, seems to be something my fingers made up by themselves. I meant something else entirely, but using many of the same letters, albeit in a slightly different order.
Welcome back Vicus old buddy. Trust you had a pleasant sojourn in the North country. As you can see the standard of your blog has been thoroughly maintained in your absence, but yes, I am in agreement with some of the other punters - time for a new topic - I don't understanbd this word thing..
Pammy, my restraint has been rewarded and I am very happy - you are starting to train me - is this good or bad? And Sharon, I'm not sure if Vicus encourages politeness on here or not but, as my mother used to say (and may still say), it doesn't cost you anything and it helps the world go round.
coddle Tom, in the interests of playing fair, I've edited my list a bit. I was getting tired of a couple of the words anyway.
track pig cow deer mud arm Farmer George
That better be all right. I'm tired of editing. You'll notice the list is much improved, and I've included a genuine King to demonstrate my undying loyalty to the crown.
Thinking about it, perhaps I shouldn't have said that. Vicus might throw me off the site.

Ahem. It is the autumn. Since Saturday, I believe.
And why does Maudlin start with a capital, when none of the others do? Is it to remind us of Reggie?
Oh, and have a nice break.
Ah, just gone back to the front sheet, and see it's Maudling. So ignore that paragraph.
You don't want to be feeling Maudling.
vicus, I shall treasure those words until you return.
I thought it was actually spelt Magdalene
Vicus, come back soon. We don't have that much to do around here.

If that were the case, it would have been "Maudlin" though. Did you see her "act" in Ruby Cairo?
Actually, I think it was 'Maudling,' as in being somehow Maud Adams-like in some shape, form or fashion.
Thankyou for thinking of us. It is appreciated although I would rather have had
engineered
marzipan
proposition
collaboration
thora hird

Don't know why I did this. It just seemed like the thing to do...

I want Ziggi's words now - although I'll change the 'one' for 'won' ( same pronunciation by some of the more local types)
Ah well, I will let it rest.

Please note that I was unable to post in your absence without supervision.
Sorry Tom. I hadn't read the small print. Here's my amended list:
coddle
track

deer
start
stop
muddle
fumble

Is that OK?
No, not really Mark, there are too many words, and everyone else has used a capital for the first part of the last word. I'm just getting exasperated by this.
Pericope (not periScope)
floral
antidulivian
sock
I have no idea what my third word means, seems to be something my fingers made up by themselves. I meant something else entirely, but using many of the same letters, albeit in a slightly different order.
correction:
won not one
Here (capitalisation of last word)
sorry
He's back! It must be Fall!!!!
will you post something now ? it's not up to us to keep your blog running, you grumpy sod.
Zoe, I might, I might not. Depends on how I feel. I notice that you haven't been as prolific as usual lately.

Tommy my love, you deserve a big wet kiss for your restraint.
Here are my words:

Can I do some words too, please?

wart
grandiloquent

Let's try.
thrust
splurge

I like Richard's words best. Except tetrapoint, which is silly.
I liked Dave's "antidulivian," whatever that means.
Substitute amalgam for tetrapoint then.
