Had to pay the landlord an extra fiver a week, but he has extended our lease, phew! Safe again for a while for all Argy Bargies wanting a sit down and a pint of something, whilst getting things off their chests.???

I am off to the tunnel with Achilles. A bit more digging needed. We are taking a keg of poteen with us.

That was close Laura no husbands allowed. Would spoil our fun.

Evening all! As a member of the Doghouse Gang, I take the first drink is on the house?

LauraNorder Fri 23-Oct-20 20:50:03

I shall sit in the corner with my guitar and strum Folsom Prison Blues while I recover from the shock

phoenix Fri 23-Oct-20 20:54:57

I could do the vocals in a half way decent contralto if it would add to the ambience?

Doodle Fri 23-Oct-20 21:02:01

Are you sure about that Maw? The Admiral is wandering about with a pair of hedge clippers in his hand.. just letting you know.

Ah Phoenix I was just about to send the search helicopter out to track you down. Yes all drinks for the famous Doghouse 4 are on the house tonight. Don’t get too excited. Most people can’t manage more thank one of Lemon’s cocktails .
Laura that could have been a bit awkward especially as PC Rozzer’s got his eyes on Maw .

Doodle Fri 23-Oct-20 21:05:06

Ok folks AGA is next with her version of Who let the dogs out assisted by Rover and Spud fresh from night watch at the Gasworks. Woof woof ??

Much as I adore Queen and with Adam Lambert, My knee replacements do not allow me to dance on the table or on the floor for that matter. I am happy to sit in a chair drinking my diet coke.

Maw where did you get that pic of Thor with Gnasher.....did you take them to the llama farm?
Karaoke is up and running folks, we even have flashing lights
(Borrowed from Maw) I’m up with ‘Tie A Yellow Ribbon round the ooollld oaaak treeee, it’s been five long yeaaaars do ya still waaant me....

MawB2 Fri 23-Oct-20 21:24:48

Ahem
I’d like to start a brief solo but hope you will all join in...

??
I posted here
It was no crime
I got my sentence
And served my time
And yes some typos
Perhaps a few
I've had some deletions - been kicked in the face
But I've come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions - you all my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World ??

Oh come on Charleygirl, you can manage that sideways slide bit in "I want to break free", I believe the hoovering bit in the video is optional, as is the moustache.

Charleygirl5 Fri 23-Oct-20 21:28:43

We sure are!

phoenix Fri 23-Oct-20 21:37:30

Yay, go Maw!

lemongrove Fri 23-Oct-20 21:38:22

Well done Maw that brought a tear to the eye alright!

Charley the Captain is giving you a come on look, I think you’ve pulled.wink

Who’s up next for a song?

AGAA4 Fri 23-Oct-20 21:39:26

Lovely solo Mawb. Pity those dogs joined in

lemongrove Fri 23-Oct-20 21:40:27

How did your whelk curry go down Charley ? Oh...good?
( as long as it stays down eh?)

lemongrove Fri 23-Oct-20 21:41:01

I thought it was Maw howling?

Doodle Fri 23-Oct-20 21:43:44

Woop ? woop ? well done Maw. A wonderful rendition.

lemongrove Fri 23-Oct-20 21:47:54

Am on my sixth Within These Walls cocktails and all is well with the world, I just can’t seem to make my feet work.?

Doodle Fri 23-Oct-20 21:47:58

I’m on next with “Back on the chain gang” ?

Doodle Fri 23-Oct-20 21:49:23

That’s because the llamas have gone to sleep on them lemon. Come on your next on the karaoke, what’s it to be.?

Charleygirl5 Fri 23-Oct-20 21:49:35

Excuse me lemongrove what have I pulled- not a muscle or a tendon because I am not in any pain.

I had a lamb steak before I came to the Argy and I brought a sandwich in case I become peckish later. I do not intend spending the next week in bed with food poisoning.

I will be going home soon because I need my beauty sleep- I would like to grow a tad taller because I am shrinking and 5 foot 9" would allow some leeway I think.

lemongrove Fri 23-Oct-20 21:52:06

Oh I love that one Doodle, can I sing along with you?
Working onna chain gang workin’ down down down, five a clock in the mornin’ all ready up to go....
