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!?

I like the sound of her ixion because I am quite strange already?
What does she wear?

ixion Sun 29-Nov-20 16:04:44

In that case, lemon, I nominate you to be Bellatrix Lestrange (played by Helena Bonham Carter in the Muggle version, but a poor and toned-down impersonation of the real gal witch)

Who is going to be " he who must not be named" - Voldemort!

I am brewing poteen in The Chamber of Secrets - the cellar. Just trying to get Doodle out of the cauldron.

Think I can hear Moaning Myrtle in the ladies toilets.

Oh a baddy....they’re much more fun.

ixion Sun 29-Nov-20 14:55:35

Ah, in that case I foresee problems.
Dobbie is a groveller (think Uriah Heap++++'), willing to do the grottiest of domestic jobs. He is also, as an elf, very short so will be able to reach those parts that mere mortals cannot reach......
Do you want to be a goody or a baddy? Just say and I'm sure the other Bargy-ers will come up with suggestions

Quiz? Ego!
Are we going to be doing this a lot ixiom.....I know nothing about Harry Potter characters so will rely on your arcane knowledge for Friday.
This Elf you speak of can start cleaning the oven....it’s in a terrible state after roasting those toads last week.?

ixion Sun 29-Nov-20 14:20:35

Ecce patrona! lemon!
Just practising with my new G-tech Nimbus 2000 for next week.
I bring good tidings of great joy -Dobbie the House Elf has offered his cleaning services FOC for us? Where do you want him to start?
I am bringing the delectable Severus (?)❤️ so GC will be available as escort for the night for another lucky reveller. We will be making our own magic, thank you very much?

Doodle Sat 28-Nov-20 21:06:29

Ooh yes. I’m in the cellar with AGA’s cauldron of Poteen and just adding in some toad and newt, next I wave my magic wand and oops I’ve dropped in in the cauldron ?

lemongrove Sat 28-Nov-20 21:02:32

Are you going to cast any spells?

lemongrove Sat 28-Nov-20 20:57:52

I did warn you about that French matelot Doodle .....the way he had his arm round the Captain all night gave it away.
Anyway, a good night’s sleep is better for us now and again.

Doodle Sat 28-Nov-20 20:49:28

No more dressing up as men for me, I am coming as Minerva McGonagall with pointy hat. I fancy being able to turn into a cat when I want too. Meow ??

Doodle Sat 28-Nov-20 20:46:20

Hmm no amour for me lemon. My date started getting agitated when I pulled off my moustache, he started shaking when I took off my sword and jacket and blouse and when I dropped my pantaloons he passed out with shock. I came back to the Argy and had a cuddle with the llamas ?

lemongrove Sat 28-Nov-20 20:37:12

Oooh, how was your night of amour Doodle? Mine went surprisingly well.....the yacht was all that he said it would be,
All polished wood and leather and gold fittings.He gave me the full tour, followed by a light late supper and a nightcap.
He then put the nightcap on and we cuddled up and went to sleep.Woke up feeling refreshed! I could do with more nights like that, His name is Reggie, and I have invited him to next week’s Harry Potter Nite.

Doodle Fri 27-Nov-20 23:56:51

I’ve pulled too. A lovely sailor chap who likes the look of my tash .......one or both of us may be disappointed ?.

Callistemon Fri 27-Nov-20 23:33:58

It's back to the karaoke for us, then.
Don't Rock the Boat

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 23:29:03

Well, I’ ve pulled, so I’ll get me coat and wish you all goodnight .....am off to the yacht of a wealthy sailor moored nearby, hope it really is a yacht, only the last sailor who tried that line with me turned out to only have a dinghy, and a tiny one at that!
See you on the morrow....

Callistemon Fri 27-Nov-20 22:58:06

ixion

'Three' what, callistemon??

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 22:43:28

And ten bob for one on the way out

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 22:42:48

Of course?

Doodle Fri 27-Nov-20 22:08:35

The Admiral’s in the entrance charging everyone 5 Bob for a French kiss on the way in. Was that your idea lemon?

Doodle Fri 27-Nov-20 22:06:26

Who’s been feeding my llamas all that booze. They’ll be keeping me up all night now expecting me to take them out to do their business. ?

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 22:03:36

Phew! I need a sit down and another absinthe now ?

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 22:02:12

My turn on karaoke, I shall start with....something Christmassy...
On the first day of Christmas, my true looove gaave to meee,
A llama that needed a pee,
On the second day of Christmas my etc etc
Two mangy ferrets,
Three able seamen
Four pints of poteen
Fiiiiive brown thiiings
Six hussies sweeping
Seven barmaids brewing
Eight patrons drinking
Nine firemen dancing
Ten candles burning
Eleven whelks a ponging
Twellllve legs of toads
And a llama that neeeeded a peeeee!
