I've been asked to pass on a message by soop:

"Nel will be waiting at Lil's Bar tomorrow. I'll get there 2-ish."

soop can't tell you this herself, though she would like to. I'm the go-between smile

I think Lil is your boss green....but then again it could be Nell just depends on the day smile Yes a bit of a mess was left....a few people were giddy and drinking on 'empty heads'...no names.. grin

Who's my boss here, anyway - is it Lil or littlenellie? I can't be doing with not knowing who my boss is, because I've got quite a high profile job in this establishment. glammanana, the bacon butties that you made should've been put on that plate that I'd left on the draining board next to the pig-swill bucket. I'd given it a good wipe over with the teatowel that gramps had used and which I dried out over the oven, so it was perfectly clean. However, what do you go and do? You took another plate off the shelf where the mousetraps are....must empty those mousetraps when I've got a minute..hmm Found a bit of MaggieP's lobelia floating in the pigswill bucket - what on earth's been going on while I was having a well-earned lie-down?

MaggieP Wed 18-Jul-12 09:34:51

Morning all, looks like those of us who left early missed a rowdy evening, who trampled on my newly made flower pots and who pulled lobelia out of the hanging baskets? It was draped around Lil's front door, all red, white and blue!
I will be back later to make amends and woe betide the culprits if I catch them.....grin. What will Littlenellie have to say?

GoldenGran Wed 18-Jul-12 08:22:04

Misse all this yesterday, welcome back littlenellie the sun shines once again.sunshine

glammanana Wed 18-Jul-12 07:39:58

The things that you find the morning after the night before,I bet some have a sore head this morning,never mind loads of bacon butties on the way all with a dash of brown sauce.grinI'm busy today so if you want food before tonights session you will have to fend for yourselves,Keep the kitchen tidy and don't eat all the chocolate cake,I know how many slices there are left !! grin

Pete Wed 18-Jul-12 00:03:57

number is that just a dash of lemonade? grin gramps get to bed....it will all be a lot worse in the morning.....

gramps Tue 17-Jul-12 23:51:41

Gotta go now,I feel like Finklestynes Monster, little flashes of light sparkin' out of me finger tips! Sparks come down me nose when I sneeze!

G'night all! (flash,bang, sizzzzllleel)

gramps Tue 17-Jul-12 23:39:19

YIKES , They MEANT electrocution lessons. Who's the clever 'andy man round 'ere?Puttin' five cables into one plug - NOT good idea. Lucky I was standin' on Pete's shirt and pants, which are fortunately dry. It could 'ave bi a shockin' experience! Made me eyes light up !shock

Greatnan Tue 17-Jul-12 23:35:14

Who's pinched the darts - I've found the board. I think that Bags has been using them to practise archery.

gramps Tue 17-Jul-12 23:24:57

'Ere you lot, get the OTHER side of the bar will yer! angry
Wotcher say? You WORK here. (just started electrocution lessons, see!)

Oh, Greenie, I din't recognise yer wearing that flashy pinny! You other lot, "B" off!! That wiper-up-cloth Greenie, did yer 'ide it afore the elf'n safety bods got 'ere? (electrocution lessons seem to be NBG!)

This is one good way of dieting, looking at the food (food??) on offer in here!

Anagram Tue 17-Jul-12 21:13:47

Wise choice, number - just check the packet hasn't been opened and resealed, the Vice Squad isn't here for nothing, you know...wink

numberplease Tue 17-Jul-12 21:07:35

Mine`s a port and lemonade, in a pint glass please, but I`ll pass on the pork pie, and just have a packet of crisps.

Pete Tue 17-Jul-12 20:28:22

ana I found him! (behind the shed) ella yeah another shirt, just as well they're drip-dry smile Anyway is it my round...again.. grin

Nonu Tue 17-Jul-12 19:37:10

Littlenellie , I will certinly ask if she can knock some songs I like , then I can dance round my handbag , oh forgot , I don"t bring my my bag anymore as I expect to be treated ,mine"s a large one . I definatly [spelt right] wearing my 4 inch heels , but won"t have too short a skirt on , got be decorous you know wink

Ella46 Tue 17-Jul-12 19:30:04

More leakage on the shirt Pete!!

Anagram Tue 17-Jul-12 19:01:32

I don't think Pete's found Huey, nellie. He was calling very loudly for him in the Gents just now....

greenmossgiel Tue 17-Jul-12 19:00:11

OoooH - goody! I'll not let you down, Lil! Promise! I've got an old pinny of mum's. I'll wear that tomorrow. She used to keep her fag-ends in the pocket so there are a few shreds of baccy in it as well as burn-holes. If the baccy falls in anything, it'll not do anyone any harm...it's only herbs, after all. Tiddlywinks are a good idea...(actually gramps did a tiddle under the table, but it's all cleaned up now) grin

Littlenellie Tue 17-Jul-12 18:50:05

Nonu ask honky tonk glad she can bash out any tune tune on the ivories...
LIL will be on her way back soon she had a meeting at the bank to secure funds for her expansion,she has sent me to see what you have all been up to...she doesn't want to raise expectations to high,I think she will extremely pleased when she returns and finds chaos reigning it reminds her of our childhood,our mother was of the same old school as Greens mother..Lil used to copy her style when she was younger headscarf tied on top of two plastic rollers in the front of her hair,a floral penny,and checked booted slippers with the bunions cut out and her stocking rolled down to her ankles,and her teeth in the pickled onions...although I trust green wouldn't follow that example...oh and by the way Green you are hired..has * pete* found Huey for whom he was calling...tomorrows special board will feature all leftovers in a pAstry crust and served in the restaurant as they will not know about this afternoons events..Lil is extremely pleased at today's staff meeting,and suggests we h,ave another tomorrow all are invited this bar is very much like Lil cheap and cheerful,Lil has ordered a juke box for the corner ...and tiddlywinks....

Anagram Tue 17-Jul-12 18:41:51

Think I've eaten too many pork scratchings (some of them are very chewy!), so I'll pass, thanks....
I'm sure gramps and Pete would like one, though. They look as though they could do with a bit of stodge to sober them up.

greenmossgiel Tue 17-Jul-12 18:34:48

Good idea, Anagram.....there! Now, seeing as Lil's not here yet, I'll make everyone a nice sandwich. I'll just give my hands a bit of a wipe - now...tripe sandwich anyone?

Anagram Tue 17-Jul-12 18:29:28

Wring it out in the pig-bucket first - it needs a bit of body to ferment the tripe.

greenmossgiel Tue 17-Jul-12 18:16:22

Oh....well give it here anyway. I'll dry it out over the oven....it'll do for wiping over the bar later.

Nonu Tue 17-Jul-12 18:07:03

Is there music ? loud and plenty of it , marley , pitbull, Maroon 5 or is it a discreet little watering hole ? This would influence whether I will visit it or not . {wink]

merlotgran Tue 17-Jul-12 18:04:01

Welcome back, Nellie, I didn't know you'd gone. Sat Nav packed up so I had to follow numberplease to find out where everyone was having a p**s up discussing community matters. Any merlot on your shelf? wine grin
