Well, fellow Argy Bargers, after some hard bargaining with
Moneybags Mike our landlord, I have managed to secure another short term lease.The scoundrel wanted ten pounds a month, but I showed him my maroon bloomers and he reduced it to seven pounds.Result!?

Just wondering if we can make some extra money by selling Pooping Llamas over Christmas, it would cut down on the daily mopping.
Hope tonight will be a good BONDing session.

LauraNorder Fri 20-Nov-20 18:50:31

Lemon, can Fanny go on the door instead of me tonight. She has the unique ability to see off undesirables by simply saying 'shoo'. A sight to behold.

lemongrove Fri 20-Nov-20 19:03:56

Yes, let’s put Fanny on the door as Bloefeld with her cat, she can eliminate anyone she doesn't like the look of by smacking them around the head with the huge Koi carp.
ixiom the lavs are sparkling.....you have that job for life now, and I will even throw in an extra shilling.
AGA as ever your brewing skills are an asset ( although there seems to be a bloater swimming in the poteen?)
Wow Doodle you look great, you came as Jaws! Love the metal teeth.
Laura you’re up first on Karaoke.....what are you going to give us?

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

lemongrove Fri 20-Nov-20 19:18:42

Whaddya think of my costume? You have to guess who I am.
Think I’ll go and sit with those sailors, they look happy, and all knocking back the Octopussy cocktails....ker-ching!
Thor looks handsome, as does Gloopy and Achilles, they have all come as James Bond! Oooh, which one to choose?

ixion Fri 20-Nov-20 19:29:51

Wow, lemon, that gold lamé cat suit! Didn't realise they came so skin tight, please take care when you lean over the bar (or sneeze). You have to be Jill Thingy from 'Goldfinger', right?
But can you blast out the theme tune like Shirley does?

AGAA4 Fri 20-Nov-20 19:31:00

The bloater is my secret ingredient lemon. Strong smell. It will blow your bloomers off

lemongrove Fri 20-Nov-20 19:36:15

Am not wearing any AGA?just not possible under my
Gold cat suit.
Yes ixion well spotted, am indeed her ( thingy) and funny you should ask about singing Goldfinger, because am up for karaoke next....here I go,
Dah DAH....dah DAH....Goooldfiinger! He’s the man, the man with the Midas touch, a spiiiiders touch.....

ixion Fri 20-Nov-20 19:43:57

Ooh, you didn't have your liberty bodice on, then?
I am in the wings with emergency safety pins when you've finished.
You've silenced the sailors, they are truly gob-smacked?
Is that The Admiral --lurching --clambering on stage to congratulate you in his own special way??

LauraNorder Fri 20-Nov-20 19:45:46

Okay, get that karaoke going I'll sing Thunderball, dedicated to Thor, and then I'll think of something else for his other one.

LauraNorder Fri 20-Nov-20 19:50:27

Are you going to sing 'nobody does it better' Doodle.
Wow Lemon did you spray that suit on?
AGA something a bit fishy going on with you tonight, Ixiom careful with those safety pins around any bloaters

AGAA4 Fri 20-Nov-20 19:51:08

Goldfinger is here and his fingers are cold. Ouch!

AGAA4 Fri 20-Nov-20 19:54:10

Looping llamas for rent a good idea Laura

AGAA4 Fri 20-Nov-20 19:55:17

Even pooping ones

Doodle Fri 20-Nov-20 20:58:37

Fanny if you don’t manage the Friday nights you are always welcome to pop in during the week (and help with the cleaning ?). You cat will be most welcome.
AaaaGggggAaaa grr elp my teef r stuk togever. ?elp, elp

AGAA4 Fri 20-Nov-20 21:04:36

Give them to me Doodle I will soak them in some poteen.

lemongrove Fri 20-Nov-20 21:24:11

Am doing a bit of pole dancing now ( well, dancing around with a Polish sailor) whayeeeee!
Time for a song....
From Russia wiiith loooove I fllly to yoooooou......

Doodle Sat 21-Nov-20 00:09:19

lemongrove I don’t think that’s what they mean by pole dancing. In fact I’m not sure you’d call that dancing at all.
Mind you I’m impressed you can get your legs in that position. I hope you don’t get stuck like it ?

Thanks AGA those Jaws teeth had me clamped together for a bit.
Laura how about Great Balls of Fire ☄️ for your next tribute to Thor.
ixion let’s do a duet on the karaoke. How about Diamonds are forever. You can be Burly Chassis and I will accompany you by playing the guitar with my Jaws teeth. That should bring the crowds in.

AGAA4 Sun 22-Nov-20 16:00:47

I saw lemon disappear with her pole (not the long skinny one, the one with muscles the size of grapefruits) She has been gone for days.
Doodle is still cosied up with one of the Bonds. The llamas are jealous.
Thor was impressed by Laura's rendition of 'nobody does it better' and they are still on the roof.
I am on my way to scrounge some potatoes for the poteen. Best lacy bloomers on.

lemongrove Sun 22-Nov-20 20:56:43

Sorry all ?been on a two day bender with Scaramanga (Polish sailor) on his ship ......whaaaahey, those boys know how to party, knocking back the voddy like there’s no tomorrow.
I scurried off the ship just in time, it was heading for Vladivostok.
Am feeling a little bit fragile....keep your voices down.

lemongrove Sun 22-Nov-20 20:58:14

Could somebody get Thor down from the roof I need a cup of strong black coffee cafe

Doodle Sun 22-Nov-20 21:06:57

Well I can’t get him down but I know someone who can.now where did I put the number for the fire brigade ?

lemongrove Sun 22-Nov-20 21:19:34

Doodle thinking cap on time....your turn I believe to choose the Theme Nite.

Doodle Sun 22-Nov-20 22:04:01

Lemon that’s really hard. We’ve had so many theme nights it’s difficult to think of one we haven’t had.
How about Musketeer Night all for one and one for all
I quite fancy wearing one of those fancy hats and swinging from the rafters. ?. We could have hog roast and wenches serving poteen in tankards.

ixion Sun 22-Nov-20 22:17:30

Harry Potter theme night some time? (I know it's not up to me to choose?).
We seem to have enough wacky characters to fit the bill and the Argy Bargy Bar has always reminded me, since my first visit, of Diagon Alley
