Ana is that RAP with a silent C?

Ana Fri 05-Oct-12 21:30:07

You read my mind, phoenix - how spooky is that? wink
Yes, another pint of vodka thanks, Pete - if that jeni's left any!

Anne58 Fri 05-Oct-12 21:31:53

Shall we start with a bit of Frank or perhaps Dean? (Both were at their peak of popularity before I was of an age, but I do like their style!)

Ana Fri 05-Oct-12 21:37:23

Hmm...both a bit before my time as well - what would fit the mood, d'you think?

gramps Fri 05-Oct-12 21:41:19

I remember the song, don't remember which programme it was on.

Your "something" is driving me bananas.

Pete Fri 05-Oct-12 21:45:11

Barry White... fancy a dance..

Ana Fri 05-Oct-12 21:51:35

Is Barry White here? I thought he was dead....confused

Pete Fri 05-Oct-12 22:05:22

Ok...The Birdy Song then!

Ana Fri 05-Oct-12 22:20:45

I'm outa here.....! shock
Have a dance with gramps, Pete - you can practise your rhumba!

Pete Fri 05-Oct-12 22:29:14

You will miss the slow dances later on Ana...pity..!
Wonder if Ella is up for it ...warm spoon only grin

gramps Fri 05-Oct-12 22:31:24

I read about your Goose called Mahatma. It took two reads to get the "Gander" (Ghandi) joke! Good one Phoenix !!

Pete Fri 05-Oct-12 22:41:41

Pint for gramps Lil please...in his tankard. Your just in time Gramps Ana wants you to show her a few dance moves...I'm off for a game of darts grin

gramps Fri 05-Oct-12 23:03:14

I look forward to helping Ana with her dance moves. (Especially that one where she dances the six and a half veils!)

We could do the rumbaba together!! grin

Pete Fri 05-Oct-12 23:21:41

Go for it Gramps grin

Ella46 Sat 06-Oct-12 09:26:12

Sorry Pete, I couldn't stay for a slow stagger round the floor, you've obviously forgotten about my bad back thanks to your acrobatics! shock
Keep practising your moves you certainly need to as when I'm better I shall expect an energetic routine that will leave gramps and Ana gobsmacked wide eyed with envy!

I think I'll need several a very large G&T to loosen me up first though, and you may want to lay on some Ample Bosoms!

Pete Sat 06-Oct-12 10:43:36

How could I forget your back Ella my knees are still recovering wink
When your better we can be as energetic as your back allows, but with a routine that is easy on my knees this time!

If the sun stays out I may try a couple of Ample Bosoms in the beer garden later.always enjoy it outdoors..... so if you fancy a quick one (G&T) grin

My turn to select an oldie on the juke box. Let me see....how about the Inkspots...the one about the whispering grass [and the trees don't need to know?] We could gather together in yonder snug and have a proper sing song. Mind you, Sister Gabriel [music teacher at the convent] picked me out from a class of 32 as being completely tone deaf ...I though it was compliment at the time! blush

Pete Sat 06-Oct-12 12:33:58

Soop I'm sure you have had enough compliments since those days wink

Enjoy your 'singalong' in the snug...will you be doing requests? only the 'chaps' watching the football might have a few grin

soop Sat 06-Oct-12 13:01:41

Petegrin

Pete Mon 08-Oct-12 17:05:01

Just arrived back to find an empty pub shock and the rumour is that Lil has eloped with gramps???

That juke-box has a lot to answer for...anyway the cellar is full of beer, wine and spirits so Happy Days... grin

soop Mon 08-Oct-12 17:20:27

Pete Perhaps gramps and Lil are at the Ritz...enjoying a good old fashioned tea-dance. I caught sight of them staggering strolling down to the taxi rank. Lil had a large scarlet feather in her hair and gramps appeared to have a rose between his teeth.

Pete Mon 08-Oct-12 17:38:34

Was Lil carrying an overnight bag? soop 'cos the till was empty and gramps' long johns were under the pool table...very strange. Oh well might as well have a quick one grin

Anne58 Mon 08-Oct-12 18:20:05

Sorry, had to nip out to towel my self down, I think the nozzle on that syphon needs adjusting.

Ana Mon 08-Oct-12 18:36:45

That isn't a syphon, it's Lil's awaiting-patent Unwelcome Advances Repellant device! You may turn an attractive shade of dayglo green by the morning, phoenix!

Anne58 Mon 08-Oct-12 18:40:35

Oh hell, I thought that scotch tasted a bit odd. So where's the soda? I was told it was on the end of the bar???????
