Bolthole, anyone?

Oh dear, set off at a gallop to fetch whisky and slid into a snowman, sat there with remains of said snowman cascading around me, ended up as an old snow lady.
Ah well, I'd rather have sloe gin any day (creeping back in shamefacedly)...
phew, that's better!
Sighs contentedly and resumes petting three dogs, all steaming in front of the fire.

At least you're back, OGM. I'll sit here with you and we'll try the sle gin champagne cocktail! Anyone else want some?

Sloe gin and champagne, a new cocktail. What could we call it?

Just dropped in to borrow a cup of whisky. Was that slurred gin Ariadne?

Yawn.... warmest I've been for a while, sleepy dogs, warm blankets, glowing fire, sipping sloe gin cocktail in good company.... do you mind if I just rest my eyes a moment.......

"slurred" lilygran? Moi? Shlur words? No, no, no! Very sleepy now; I'll just lean on OGM......

DDs have been enjoying sloe gin and fizz ever since we started making the former - a sort of Kir Royale.

What's this then? No curry left and some rather tired Gransnetters lounging by the fire. What's in that jug? Schloer? Smells like shloe gin to me. Can I have the rest? Mmmm...lovely! I've brought pizzas. Quattro formaggi, margherita and a bag of dough balls. Help yourself

Sloe gin AND champagne Ariadne mmmmm, that's my kind of cocktail!

Morning all! Think a bracing walk on the beach is called for - there seem to be a few cobwebs in my head to be blown away....

Mornin' OUCH! Defo some fresh air....bit of snow clearing I think...

Good morning, folks! There's a fresh basket of logs in the corner and I see someone has kindly cleaned up. I've got rashers of bacon and some fresh rolls, so help yourself to bacon butties. Back shortly with milk, then we'll get mugs of tea on the go.

when misread that as basket of frogs can smell the bacon already bringing fresh eggs from the girls for you,make lovely omelettes,will bring waffles and maple syrup also..hungry face emoticon

Tea's ready, if anyone would like a cup? The fire is roaring, there's a big mound of bacon butties, and now we have fresh eggs. I can't see me getting much done this morning!

If Greatnan is looking in, there is a cosy fireside chair and Sunday brunch awaiting you, and any other Gransnetters who would like a relaxing morning in good company

Yes please. My back is worse today and my sore throat has come back, am in need of coffee and sympathy please. Has the smell of bacon gone yet?

where is greatnan? She has been very quiet lately,I hope she isn't ill or lost in the snow.

Would you like some Deep Heat for that back, Movedalot? it will overpower the smell of the bacon!

Yes please When. I just don't do cooked breakfasts

Moved I'll have your bacon sarnie!

I have a cooked breakfast every day!

Hello bolthole-ers. I've come in for a lovely bit of brunch. Smol - your waffles and maple syrup are delicious - perfect with coffee.

I feel there's an air of unhappiness around GN, so find this place of warmth and calm perfect for such a day. Think I'll stay here for a little while.

Look after that back, Move!

You are very welcome River but for that reason I am so glad we don't live in the same house

When we all get together I cook a full heart attack breakfast for them all and never feel they appreciate how good it is of me to do so. They appreciate the breakfast, just not how much it means that I have done it.

Bejesus... can I come and hide in here for a while? I've come empty handed as I've bolted here when I logged on and found all sorts going on in one thread. But I can sing to you or play the piano if that's acceptable as an offering.
Sanctuary please

Come in, Kali...you don't need to sing or dance...just enjoy some pleasant company...

Shift up while I roll this upright piano in Kal 'strewth, the things you do for a bit of peace!

Ok, do you know the piano's on my foot??? You play it and we'll hum along!
