Each Move Must Consist Of Precisely Eight Words
help
Just as it says on the tin. What happens in the game may be debated in the game: perhaps it'll be a conversation, perhaps a word-limited reprise of various games we play, or whatever.

Yo homies, I's a-gonna reign and like it!
"M'sieur are you sad about ze Queen dead?" direct quote from one of my students
"Eh bien, ça va, mon petit choux, hein?"
There appears to be a plurality of cabbages.
[Rosie] That is because we are all heart.
That sounds like a very good bridge hand.
Are you talking about playing cards or snooker?
Could you please frame that question differently, possibly.
Actually, I think that I get the picture.
The picture I get is impressionistic at best.
Are you talking about Debussy or Monet then?
B flat is still B flat, you know.
Yes, even when the rent increases above inflation.
I'll end this week with eight words. Maybe.
I'll end this week with eight words. Again.
[pen] you seem to be a regular weekender.
[Softers] I do it every week. Don't you?
[pen] no real need since I have retired.
Shall we have a break from eight words?
We could try four. But do it twice.
Two words! Four times! Two words! Four times!
One.
Two, three, four, five, six, seven.
I'm sad we can't ever waltz in here.
Start!
One two three, one two three
Stop!
Waltzing, pen? I'd only tread on your toes.
[Tuj] Was that the minute waltz? Quite small...
The foxtrot, that's a short gait I imagine.
Repetitively, but without hesitation, the fox trotted overdog.
But what sort of fox was it, Bis?
An American cluster fox. It brings bad luck.
Failed. Not one mince pie passed my lips.
[pen] Not to worry, I had your share.
Mini ones are best - more pie less mince
Still haven't made any mince pies. Ruddy Covid.
This year, I propose that we try to...
Arrange a pilg. What sayeth ye, fellow humorists?
Is thou humouring us, Master Of The Rose?
I can barely master dandelions, let alone roses.
It has rained constantly, steadily, relentlessly, all day.
[pen] Lovely weather for this time of year.
[Pen] That's not the sea rising, is it?
Don't worry, Holland has plenty of good dykes.
I think you'll find they're actually called dijks
[pen] I was not thinking of water barriers.
[softers] I was ignoring your inappropriate thought processes.
We're moving to another street
All of you?
Such blatant numerical dissonance I have rarely seen.
Kentucky legislating to make pi equal four, maybe?
Pi was three point two in Indiana, 1897.
Ha! I remember when we had REAL constants.
Are you suggesting that current constants are imaginary?
[Chalks] Need to update my ancient Filofax then!
[Rosie] No, just variable, and hence not constant.
That seems to have successfully killed the conversation.
Then shall we start another topic of conversation?
I like hazelnuts. What is your favourite nut?
One without rounded edges. You can undo them.
Cashews are easily the best nuts in existence.
Cashews are not nuts, technically they are drupes.
Chocolate-covered brazils. But also walnuts. And peanut butter.
Only nuts in a date-nut-apple loaf are suitable.
[pen] Change of address is on its way
Are we forgetting pecans? Then shame on us!
Try writing while Chopin's Ballades are being played.
Shurely it depends on who is playing them.
