The New Argy Bargy cafe, please pop in!?

There's a bit if a cowboy theme in your list Mary, is there something we need to know about you? Yee haa! Like your men in chaps?

One with lots of Cointreau a la Berni 1980 please! About to start a weekend of babysitting so needing all the help going ?

Keep Matt Damon to yourself lemon--If you can--. That hussy will have snaffled him in the blink of an eye if you're not careful.

Think I'll have a black coffee with a generous shot of Tia Maria and a topping of cream please Meno.

Yes, either extremely ancient or dead Marydoll is that how you like them? ?
I will settle for Matt Damon.??

Thanks Meno I shall make a start on those coffees now, hic! May take me a while.

You kean they were alive and kicking before you got your mitts on them?

I wore them out!

Flippin 'eck Marydoll you've not left much for anyone else have you? Although having had another look at your "lust list", I've noticed that most of them are dead. Is that a pre requisite of a fanciable bloke or just coincidence?

Oooh that's a difficult one
I'll have a Berni special coffee with a very large slug of Cointreau while I have a think and reminisce about the halcyon days with Big Jim in the Berni Inn, Glasgow.

Who do I fancy?????????
Clint Eastwood in Rawhide
Gregory Peck
Cary Grant
Jimmy Stewart
Randolph Scott
Sean Connery
Rock Hudson
Richard Chamberlain in Dr Kildare
John Wayne
Robert Mitchum
Errol Flynn
Timothy Dalton in The Living Daylights
Gene Kelly
George Clooney
Howard Keel in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Charlton Heston in El Cid

...to name but a few.
If they are not available, I'll settle for Big Jim or the Admiral. Any port in astorm.

Mary, what/who do u fancy?

Ok Lemon I've lined up all your favourites, are you in tonight for a test?

Just a slug bucket of bourbon please.

I've also bought a pattern thing to shake cocoa in pretty shapes on top of coffee. Is there any alcohol in a Royale Chew?

Coffee Royale please Meno, lot of cream poured over the back of a spoon and a scattering of brown sugar. Yum!

Mmmmmn, sounds good Meno, one for me please!
Let’s see,
Espresso with absinthe
Cappuccino with Jack Daniels
Flat White with Apricot Brandy
Latte with vodka
I had better try all of them in the interests of science.

Ok I'm here waiting for your coffee ideas, meanwhile I'm sipping on one with vast amounts of tia Maria in it, please get here soon before I slide under the bar

I'll test it later but I'm sure you can drink both together, it'll kill you but hey ho

We already have a fancy coffee machine ( remember? We chained George Clooney to it until he escaped.)?
It’s still out the back, so we should really use it.
Does absinthe go with an espresso?

I’ll volunteer to taste them all, hic

Ok I'll get a fancy coffee machine and some old fashioned glasses and do some experimenting so get thinking

Now fancy that! I've just been looking at the Berni Inn on line as well MD, and looking at the menu! One of their special coffees, with cognac, was 95p. Are we keeping the same prices in the Argy?

I've had a great idea

Let's steal an idea from Berni inns.
We could get Argy clients to collect points to get a set of table mats, featuring us all in our special, select costumes.

Berni Inns were great weren't they? Every Monday evening my ex H and I met up straight from work at the Manchester Berni Inn. Always had rump steak, followed by a "special coffee in a glass". Very 1970s!

We definitely need to do something as sophisticated here at the Argy. Meno?

A bit of class? That certainly rules me out?

The night we got engaged, I had a Berni Cointreau Coffee, after prawn cocktail, steak, Black Forest Gateau and a bottle of Nuit Saint Georges.??????
I don't like coffee, but I wanted to look sophisticated.

We need something to add a bit of class

Oh yes JaneD3, I'd forgotten all about the Berni coffee Royale! I felt sooo grown up and sophisticated with one of those in my hand!
Wonder if Meno could set them up in the Argy? It would add a touch of class to the place I think. ?
