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.???

The petals are flying off my begonias, goodness knows what they'll do to Doodle'' papayas.

We will need some muscle to manage those war canoes in this swell lemon shall I fetch the Lifeboat Crew for tonight's bash? They're always up for a lark, ( not up with the lark, so I've heard ) - just keep them well supplied with the hard stuff. Their hose will keep that blessed llama at bay too.

Chewy even in a strange hat and bruises, you are still the looker of The Argy!

lemongrove Fri 21-Aug-20 17:52:52

Here we go! Dah dah dah dah daaaah da, dah dah dah daah dah......paddle harder!
Groan, those Argy steps down into the bar .....made a faster entrance than I thought.Everyone ok? Poor Peardrop went arse over tip ( interesting choice of bloomers!)
Still, it made the customers gasp, which is what I had hoped for.

Lins serves you right for not covering up your laulau....you’ll know better next time!
How do I look? Yes, it’s me a lifelike palm tree eh? Hard to walk mind you, I have to take little tippy tap steps or I’ll split me sides (literally).
Right....shall we go outside to get the racing canoe thingy and make a terrific entrance?

Lins you are lucky that's all he is doing.

I am a bit worried about our flimsy skirts in the gale force winds. I don't think my tinsel one will last long.

Lins1066 Fri 21-Aug-20 16:18:32

Doodle will you please lock that llama in the cellar, he keeps sniffing my lau lau.

AGAA4 Fri 21-Aug-20 16:10:15

It is always better to come to upmarket bars like the Argy. We do a better class of punch but it might hurt as much.
The worst you usually get is a sore posterior from the llama bites so wear reinforced knickers.
Thor has tied him up in the cellar but he had a wicked twinkle in his eye. You can't trust him.
Best poteen made with Doodle's chips is ready and waiting for all those foolish brave enough to have a go.

It's Hawaiian Nite in the Argy
And we're not having any bargy
My spud skins have dried out
And I'm ready to shout
"Book him Danno"

This wind has played havoc with my begonias so I've made them into decorative flowers to wear in my hair. Help yourselves I've made loads, but watch out for greenfly.

chewy, you didn’t get that in the FH bar did you by any chance? ?

Doodle Fri 21-Aug-20 13:38:49

Gracious chewy that looks nasty. You need a flagon of AGA’s special brew poteen to get over that. ?

Doodle Fri 21-Aug-20 13:36:51

It’s Hawaiian nite in the Argy
No trace of an onion bhaji
Pineapples on sticks
lemon’s usual tricks
And all ending up in an orgy.

?????????????

Not sure if I'm going to be there Doodle. I went into that bar up the road, "Scraping the Bottom of the Barrel" last night and asked for a Rum Punch. Damn, it hurt.

Doodle Fri 21-Aug-20 13:28:01

Cum on you lot, where are you. It’s Hawaiian night tonight. Get your hula skirts on and your hula hoops ready for practice and Hula Hoops ready for eating.
My coconut bra is ready and I have made a coconut shell botty protector to shield me from amorous llamas.

Doodle Thu 20-Aug-20 17:34:43

Wot ?

AGAA4 Thu 20-Aug-20 16:12:20

Lemon I didn't think anyone knew about me, Thor and the lager saga blush.
My tinsel skirt is looking a bit out of season and I am scooping
out a melon for my top half.
The anchovy cake sound delicious with a few capers in the mix.
Doodle don't encourage that llama by biting him back. He will just love you more.

lemongrove Thu 20-Aug-20 13:54:55

Just popped in to see how things are coming along for tomorrow night.The Admiral left me a note to say he has crabs! Hooray, I do love a crab sarnie, so why does he sound upset about it??Since Soop deserted us for the Slug And Lettuce I shall be baking up a storm in the kitchen soon.
Does anyone else love anchovy cake, or is it just me?
My palm tree costume has arrived...it’s awesome!

lemongrove Thu 20-Aug-20 13:47:02

I have an old helper called Lins
Who is drying her precious spud skins
On the boiler out back,
In the broken down shack
Right next to the smelly old bins.?

Doodle Wed 19-Aug-20 21:18:27

There once was a frisky young Llama
Who always created a drama
My behind was her fetish
For when she was peckish
Till I bit her back, and that’s karma.

?*Doodle*..... the competition for Poet Laureate of The Argy is stiffening up...
There was a young lady called AGA
Who wanted both Thor and a lager
Down the cellar they went,
His tapper got bent,
And the rest of the tale is a saga!

AGAA4 Wed 19-Aug-20 17:47:55

Doodle if I wasn't busy with Achilles I would come up and give you a round of applause. You do need to sort the valve out on your pump so that they are both beauties.

Doodle Wed 19-Aug-20 17:17:26

Ahem ? clears throat for public speaking.

It’s well known my papayas are juicy
They’re succulent, moist and fruity,
Yours cannot compare
With my wonderful pair
One’s small but the other’s a beauty.

So there! ?

AGAA4 Wed 19-Aug-20 17:11:23

Aga tripping over her bloomers to get down to the cellar to help Achilles. May be a while.......

lemongrove Wed 19-Aug-20 17:03:34

....but while you are here AGA will you join Achilles in the cellar, he needs a strong pair of hands to help him tap his barrels.....and I’m busy.

lemongrove Wed 19-Aug-20 17:01:22

If only AGA ?it’s a well known limerick ( only I changed a few words) heehee.

AGAA4 Wed 19-Aug-20 16:39:26

Lemon we should have an old time music hall night and you can be star of the show. Brilliant poem. You have the gift.
