Ana ...a little stern talking goes down well with the lads.
Phoenix mustn't give in to their sweet-talk. Spare the rod...etc! wink

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 17:22:12

Ana I think you will find I fought the 'manflu' alone and 'manfully' smile...and the thought of getting back to you helped me recover!....lots of fluids helped as well!....Pint please Lilly, and one for pogs grin

Anne58 Fri 19-Oct-12 19:03:19

Evening all, you haven't seen me, right?

Pete , your battle against the dreaded man flu was........................ well, words fail me, which is probably just as well!

I'm not actually here, I'm (ahem) doing some further work on my powerpoint presentation ready for Wednesday. wink

Ana Fri 19-Oct-12 19:06:25

Nice to not see you again, phoenix! grin

Anne58 Fri 19-Oct-12 19:41:43

You too Ana !

(who said that?)

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 20:11:02

No words needed phoenix and I dont expect to be carried shoulder high around the bar....a pint will do for now ...grin

I wish to make a correction to my post on the last page where I incorrectly stated that the chorus to the song "Grandad" was "Grandad,Grandad we love you" The line is in fact "Grandad, Grandad, you're lovely".

I do apologise for any inconvenience that this error may have caused, and would like to wish you good journey for your onward travel arrangements.

If any of you have been affected by this item, please do contact the helpline.

Thank you.

Is 'corrie' on tonight? only the 'snug' is very quiet!!

Fancy a game of pool ana?

Anne58 Fri 19-Oct-12 20:58:08

I don't watch corrie. But I am looking forward to the big event tomorrow. I've got everything crossed for him, and of course Henry as well.

Ana Fri 19-Oct-12 21:01:49

Of course Corrie's been on! (You should know that, Pete) - but now I'm going to watch HIGNFY so back later!

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 21:04:30

I'm off for a walk...wink

Ethel says watch out cos the rubber gloves are perished cos she can't afford new ones on the less than min wage you lot pay. So they will probably have holes in so watch what you are up to. Her back is still giving her gyp so if you don't send her a get well card she will be wanting some sick pay or a bottle of Sanatogen at the least.

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 22:17:39

soop has Ethel's rubber gloves..two pairs!....at the ready so tell Ethel to get her ar back to her duties. Are you stopping for a quick one grrr..on me of course...grin

grrrranny Fri 19-Oct-12 22:35:43

I'll have you know that strong drink never touches my lips - oh I've just dropped my straw. A very touching offer Pete and if I hadn't just spent an hour putting my hair in rags ready for bed and if I didn't believe the rumours spread about you, I might have been tempted to put on my slippers and join you. What does lothario mean anyway?

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 22:49:39

No idea grrr ...just come as you are ...large straw available ..grin

Anne58 Fri 19-Oct-12 22:51:28

In some circles a "straw" has other meanings..........................especially to cattle farmers.

jeni Fri 19-Oct-12 22:55:33

grin

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 22:55:36

Well when grrr arrives she will not draw the 'short one'..grin

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 23:10:44

phoenix Why is your 'help line' always engaged?

Anne58 Fri 19-Oct-12 23:17:53

Just popular I guess *Pete" (shrug emoticon)

Re. the "straw" thing, my exdh once had to go to Exeter Airport to collect a package of several straws of semen from a highly valuable Belgian Blue bull. He got to the desk and found himself saying "I've come to pick up the package for Mr H as he couldn't come himself" grin

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 23:32:50

grin

Pete Fri 19-Oct-12 23:51:25

Pint please Lil......No !! I don't want a straw... shock

Anne58 Sat 20-Oct-12 00:07:01

Well, sorry to be a lightweight, but I'm off. Busy weekend ahead, places to go, people to do (as "Grunt" (sic) Mitchell used to say)

I will leave you with a song, (hope it's the right link) that contains the best ambiguous line EVER!

Pete Sat 20-Oct-12 00:22:38
