Wow! Awesome! This is incredible! 

I laughed my head off, I hope nobody in my family noticed.

I think the Beatles Bible house will have different wings (not Paul McCartney &, but the building kind )– one big section for forum members to inhabit (with a rooftop hangout, kitchen, torture chamber, recording studio, All Together Now topic threads, etc.) and another space for all the proper, Beatley discussions. The songs will each have their own closet with Joe’s article and vital stats on a table, and each topic will be a hall, with the threads– rooms– branching off. As a general rule: the longer the thread, the bigger the room. With certain exceptions of course. The Baker’s Dozen is quite long but will only require a small space with previous posts in a filing cabinet and current ones displayed on a bulletin board (as will most of the games threads). As I mentioned in the “You know you’re a hardcore BBer when…” thread, the In My Life thread is the living room, the derail thread is like a huge hall where random stuff turns up (there’s also a bulletin for forum rank announcements), and there will be a games hall. And a Gretch-shaped swimming pool, which I will almost never enter because cat-like, I despise swimming. And a communal instrument room where the musicians among us– myself and @Mr. Kite  included– will be able to pool our collections and share instruments. (There WILL be strict policies about taking care, not hogging a particular one, playing fair, etc. and owners of instruments reserve the right to keep their instruments to themselves. I for one am quite willing to share my pretty Breedlove acoustic with rather worn strings kept in perfect tune, but it’s not really mine anyway– it’s my dad’s technically, although I play it more than he does — oh well, maybe for my birthday I’ll get my own; then I’ll share. Anyway, if you own a vintage Chet Atkins, or any kind of Martin, by all means, keep it in your secure, soundproof room.) 

And about that. I love the soundproof– you have no idea how many times I’ve wished my room is soundproof. But we won’t have kidnappings, except in @Starr Shine?’s Tuesday night story hours or something. There’ll be some sort of security system, I suppose, nameless and left to convenient vagueness, which will not interfere with… umm… things. 

My room will be on an upper level, furnished in shades of green, brown, and the colours of my dreams, with a loft bed that looks like it was made out of a tree growing in the walls. I will have a record player, a good stereo system, a desk next to a window (with laptop, drawing supplies, and suchlike), LP covers from every UK Beatles release (not just Revolver ), LOTS of guitars (an acoustic for everyday, a Rickenbacker 12-string, an Epiphone Casino, various Gretches, my good old cruddy classical which my aunt gave me after keeping it in an attic for 10 years, etc.) and a couple basses (Hofner, Rickenbacker), and last but not least, my usual entourage of extraneous paraphernalia (A.K.A. junk). I will almost always have music playing (whether the Fabs, various other artists, or me), will be totally cut off from the rest of the world (unless otherwise specified by the owner), and again last but not least, my room will NEVER, EVER be completely clean. 

I will inhabit this house as myself, but will wear a Paulvatar mask most of the time. I will make an effort to attend all social meetings, such as brunches, movie screenings, etc., unless I am really ill, I will help @Ahhh Girl with the laundry while we chat about Paul’s awesomeness, I will help cook (as long as I get to sing Beatles albums while I work), I will not barge into anyone’s room even if nothing’s doing and I’m bored out of my mind, and generally be a model Forumpudlian. 

When are we moving?

We can move as soon as we add the room for @HongKongLady and I

Yes, it’s called “the real one: trc’s and HKL’s room”.

In the house everyone would come as their self if we were all to get there. How long will you be able to keep on the mask? Will you last longer than Mr. Kite? tune in when we all get teleported there to find out

Cat warrior? For security we also have my pet Volcano that doesn’t seem to like Mr. Kite for some reason. (maybe the volcano is allergic to bananas)

All the rooms I made are already put in the house somewhere.

Wow that is detailed! It’s good that you know what you want!

You bet! 

I know my own mind very well (except when it changes).
