Welcome to the new Argy Bar and cafe, abandon hope all ye who enter here.?

My DH keeps looking at me wondering what I'm looking at!

Me too ! And no I didn't buy any bottles of starboard funny lady. So let's all drop anchor and show me the ropes across the bar and enjoy a quick baggywrinkle (look it up) and a large tot of rum before hitting the bunk

Anyway...back to business, we have a large order of sausagerolls coming in tomorrow morning ( surplus from Greggs) only a few days out of date and a bargain! Whoever opens up tomorrow, slip the driver a fiver will you?Then heat them up for 15 mins , they will sell like hot cakes ( or lukewarm snacks.)

I often laugh when reading comments on GN ( but usually on the political threads) and on here of course in the dear old Argy, DH gives me a quizzical look now and then.

lemon. I actually laughed out loud at that!

Since we are dealing in Naval parlance, get your arse back to The Argy and get the bar shipshape and Bristol fashion for the Friday night rush......all hands on deck ( and all Hans too.)

Oh it was!
I wasn’t disbelieving you Meno but the two rudders may have been a bridge too far
two bottles of port? Did you buy any bottles of starboard?
Did you drink it all on the ship?

I went on the ferry, I went in sight of Calais, I went on the bridge and spoke to the captain, then I went to the duty free and got two bottles of port, so only slight exaggeration Lemon but wasn't it fun?!

Oh my eyes! ?

Hope he didn’t crash into the dockside with you tugging on his rudder (s) Meno
Are you sure that you didn’t dream all this?

You should have seen his reverse thrust!

What a fella! Could he use them both at the same time Meno? I'm a bit

eh?! More than one rudder? Are you sure meno ? How many ? had you partaken of before sitting on his "chair"?

He had more than one rudder!!

Meno am surprised you were allowed to steer his rudder,
I thought only the Captain’s wife had that honour?
What a Navy Lark you had! ?‍✈️

You mean a good time girl Mary??

......and we all used to be good girls, well at least I was.?

meno giggle??

Yes so did I, but at least I saw a few uniforms and the vibrations were marvellous when docking !

☹️
Oh I had such high hopes.

Funny story, we only got to Calais but didn't get off then came back! Yes I know bit odd but was an educational visit for staff at work and I tagged along so no Frenchmen to get my claws into, sorry ladies!

Well Meno, you have surpassed yourself? However, I think you will find, an ADMIRAL beats a mere captain any time.
I do wonder what scared the captain so much, that he felt the need to scarper?
I hope you didn't reveal what really goes on in the Argy.
Remember, we have a code of honour.?
Did you meet any dishy Frenchmen? ??

I can beat that, I've just been on the cross channel ferry and was invited up to the bridge to meet the captain! Sat in his chair and wore his hat and got to steer his rudder, so there! I also invited him to the Argy but he was last seen running off the ferry into Calais so maybe not

Was this one of them Marydoll?

What time are they coming? Do I have time to get my hair done??‍♀️, what shall I wear? ??. Goodness marydoll you could have given us more warning. I shall just drape myself seductively on the sofa and await their arrival. I shall blow my trumpet ? when they get here just to warn you all. What, you didn't know I could play the trumpet neither did I
