The WOTPP's Tale !

**Mags** · October 28th, 2005, 05:25 AM

Thought it'd be a shame if this epic got lost in the Welcome area... it kinda evolved..

WOTTP's are actually Women of the Prehistoric Planet, but they are also, as everyone knows, to do with ..er !

The media put out about the WOTTP's of 1965/66, but these are different WOTTP's. These ladies had no computers, maybe they sewed and knitted and painted and wrote poetry?

And they wrote letters with quill pens made from the birds who were walking around and they gave their letters to friends to go and deliver ... and it had to be a Monday. One never delivered one's own letters, if one did so, then one may as well not have written a letter. There were no postmen, that's why the women had to deliver each other's letters ... it was good exercise too!

Anyone else know any more about the WOTPP's?

You piqued my interest in the other WOTPPs with your posts, but have not had much success in digging up any further data. Admitedly, I have only made cursory searches, but will dig more seriously later. All knowledge, especially on rare or esoteric subjects, is good!

...ah and there are also of course ... the WOTTPs - Private ! They are the ones who live in caves and don't like noses been peered around the entrance. They creep out at night to catch their food and creep back before dawn. Dawn, of course, looks the other way, when they pass with their catch of food .. lovely woman!

Pardon my obsession, but it is WOTPP, not WOTTP. A pedantic right-brained remark, undoubtedly, but one I could no longer contain. But, on the other hand,... she wore a glove.

....... dashes back quickly to check the title, cos I haven't found a way of changing those .. and it's fine !

Of course, it's a WOTPP ...

Erm, if I may say so, of all the reading warriors, you are the bravest to point it out, I bet others have been thinking, 'did the WOTPP's have spelling lessons?' Well .. in fact they did and chalk and slates were freely available to scribble WOTPP notes ... the teachers were very strict and in those days on the Prehistoric Planet, slaps were allowed and with no gloves ...

Hmmm...that may not be such a bad place after all.

I felt it would be good to bring Slgrieb's thoughts from the Forum Roll Call area .. cos it was so good, hope this is ok? Took a bit of thinking out how to do that!

Should give you a good start on understanding Women of, but I have to say this only scratches the surface of this piece of, uh, classic cinema.

In fact, it wasn't a bad place, because with the teachers being allowed to slap without gloves .. it's nearly time for tea here .. Crumpets of course .. ah, the young WOTPP's learnt to behave .. and be terribly boring .. until one day, along came ...

You'll have to settle for me I'm afraid - Adept has moved on to spread WotPP to the world, either that or his blackberry is acting up again , but he lurks here yet so have no fear of his demise

Anyways I don't reckon much to all of this, 'teh way' may have been around since cavemen & even before quill pens, but WotPP'ing requires electric & a pc !

( & oh yeah nothing particularly better to do !
