Just to prove that life isn’t all doom and gloom, over the last set of regional conferences (East is best!) I ran a “quote book” of the things my NEC comrades said that made us all laugh. Sometimes we laughed with. Sometimes we laughed at. Either way, here are the quotes that are still making me giggle:

Pav: Life would be really dull if you didn’t eat eggs.

James-J: That’s what happens when you pay someone the minimum wage.
Sian: That’s what happens when you put someone in a yellow coat.

Pav: That’s got to be a crack-house.

Pav: X union is really scary. They’re all wearing black hoodies.

Veronica: Well I just loved the big carrot.

Kat: I was going to say it’s because I’m really sad. But it’s not. It’s because I’m National President.

James-J: Dip him in chocolate and…
Veronica: And what?
Pav: Dip him in chocolate and eat him like fondue.

Jo: You can’t grump all the time or get a reputation.

James-J: As a sabb, you need to be well-lubricated

James-J: I emailed you the stuff about the trans pensioners.
Stephen: Eh?
Kat: There are 11 million pensioners in the country…
Stephen: 11 million trans pensioners?

Stephen: Shall I use my powers of invisibility for evil or to fight crime?

Sian: I remember the days when student officers got involved. Now we just talk about MORI…

Sian (to Kat): I had this vision of you lying in the snow…

Veronica: I’m like a small child, I really am!

James-J: When Pav and I were lying in bed last night…

Suzie: If James-J goes, I go!

Pav: I met a former CIA agent in America over the summer.

Veronica: Oh, so that’s what they mean by tea-bagging?!?!

Sian: Stephen, I’ll give you a fiver if you reverse over Kat and James-J!

James-J: Stephen, you could wait until I’ve sat down and shut the door…

James-J: Kat’s been going off…

Derfel: You alright, Veronica? You’re looking a bit perturbed.
Veronica: Yeah, I’m fine. I’m just thinking.

James-J: Pav, it’s like you’re thirteen and can’t stop flirting with me!

Kat: Stephen, at the next junction, bear left.
Stephen (in a silly voice): Watch me bear left!
Jo: So long as we don’t have to watch you take part in Bear Pride…
James-J: Sian, do you remember when I took you to the Big Gay Outing and we went into the Bear Pride tent?
Sian: Oh yes. Now that was an educational experience.
James-J: And then we went into the lesbian tent.
Jo: Ah yes, Fish Pride…

James-J: Jo is the senior lesbian on the NEC.

James-J: Jo Salmon, that well known lesbian.

Kat: I’m not web-friendly.

Kat: I’m trying to merge Joe Rukin and Gemma Tumelty in my mind.

Derfel: Setting ourselves a higher target for penetration.

Derfel: I think Kat is going to add some more to this. I can see she’s twitching to go…

Veronica: Pipe down Salmon!

Veronica: Oh James-J, what a view! I could straddle you right now…

Veronica: Very exciting isn’t it? Actually I think it’s so exciting that everyone’s just stunned into silence by it.

Til the next time,
Jo xx
