Lil's Bar

I did say athletic types Ana, surely they wouldn't think........?

Ana Neither Ella nor I mentioned Gramps and Pete. Best that those two keep their long-johns on.

Soop, I know you didn't mention them - but they have big ears, and if they thought they were in with a chance I wouldn't put anything past them! Ella, I don't think they actually realise that they're not athletic types. They probably think darts and pool is close enough.....

Ana That's sooooooo funny...

Watch out Pete, with the two "hot totties" turning up. Your balls are highly flammable!.
I suggest that you pinch a large plastic bag from Nellie's knicker drawer, wear them trousers with the "Poachers pockets" wot you nicked off old Tom Poachers clothes line. Secure the large plastic bag inside the pocket, and fill it with water, then the balls will be kept cool, and out of harms way.
Check that the improvised pocket is waterproof BEFORE filling with water and wearing ! I don't want any more aspersions to my presumed incontinence!

Cheers gramps but I'll take my chances in my Matalan shorts.
Just how athletic is ping-pong ? just hit it back...less exercise than pool and darts
ella Jess replied and said she may be available in Feb 2052...hope you have better luck

Pete, don't let the girls know, but at at one time I played ping pong each lunch time. My serves were feared for their ferocious slices and spins.
Sometimes I even won!
It were called "table tennis" in my days!
let's 'ave a get to gether, an' I'll show you a few tricks. (fouls, I thinks they was called!)

Pete and Gramps ...You are incorrigible [but we like you that way]

Just dropping in to Lil's for a last "I am only 70" visit...OldGreyMare and I share the same birthday tomorrow. I'm still just a wee girl [inside my head] and would like to say, the drinks are on me tomorrow. Is there room in the honesty box for one more I.O.U?

We'll get the bunting out, soop!
(although it might need a bit of a wash after the Jubilee shennanigans....)

Dear Soopy,
All very best wishes for a fantastic birthday!!
Have a large "Champers" on me!( Hands over a cyber £28 note.-made earlier today!)
Also a "Grampy" hug and xxxxx
(I'm only 10yrs. ahead of you!)

Ana and Gramps...you're too kind. Thanks for the Champers. I'll share it with you all later. Having a lovely, sunny birthday. Special card hand-made with the use of "proper scissors" from the wee man, together with a copy of his gold medal award for 'Balance Beam' at the nursery games. He scored a silver in the 'Bean Bag Race' and made a stirling effort in the 'Hoop Jump' and 'Ball Toss'. Items for my treasure box. Enjoyed our lunch and had a glass of delicious wine. Pinot wotsit to be opened later. Slainte!

Sounds absolutely wonderful, soop! Glad you're having a good day.
(Which is more than can be said for us lot slaving over a hot bar with no customers and no sign of that green since a week last Whenever! If you see her, tell her the pig bucket's in need of another batch of tripe and onion - the lot she made last month's getting a bit whiffy, although gramps doesn't seem to mind.....)

Ana that isn't tripe and onions, that's the dirty bar cloths that green left soaking!
The tripe and onions is in the old dog bowl under the sink!
Don't know how you could have made that mistake! Silly old bat

Well, Ella [sniff] gramps has been enjoying the dishcloths then....

What can I say, his wife is a rotten cook? (Sorry Mrs gramps)

anagram have you got a cold? That's two threads I've glanced at and you're sniffing on both?

It was a huffy sniff in both cases, jeni! (Ella thought I hadn't noticed her badly-crossed-out insult! )
I'll get Lil to put her on Toilet Cleaning Duties for a week....that'll sort her out

Oh Ana I'm so sorry that's what she thinks, it must have been a glitch in the computer, I would never insult you!

Not much anyway

No need to apologise, Ella not that you were, really.
You're still on Toilet Duties though! because I'm b****ered if I'm doing them - especially the gents!

Anagram and Ella.
Mrs. Grsamps was not highly amused by the
slanderous remarks re. her cooking, and if I dared to agree I'd be on starvation diet for the next twelve months!
She added, that I have survived it for the last 57yrs.!!

(Between you, me and the gatepost, Mrs G hates tripe and onions and has NEVER made it! The only tripe she tolerates is mine, 'cos she loves me really!)

Happy Birthday Soop Slainte...Cheers....and as your in the chair mines a ...pint! ..xx

Bowl under the sink contains gramps long johns.. Complete with sani flap opening on the gusset...not to be mistaken with tripe and onions...both highly noxious......

I'll have a look at the toilets after I've finished this very large G&T, and if I don't like the look of them....well I'm not doing them and I don't care what that Anagram says, 'cos she's not in charge here!
I'd sniff but I'm too near to the gents!

So what happened to the tripe and onions?
