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!?

Think we’ll have to give you French Leave Doodle ( and take your French letters with you) or ‘billy do’s’ as I call them.

Sorry Laura didn’t see you there ? Here I’ll bend down and help you up. Ooops sorry Callistemon I didn’t mean to poke you in the derrière with the tip of my sword. I do apologise. Let me help you to a seat. Oh sorry lemon I appear to have knocked your drink over with the feather in my hat . Seems there’s more to being a musketeer than I realised. blush

I love Edith

Callistemon Fri 27-Nov-20 20:05:54

I'll sing Ring of Fire

Always popular at a karaoke, especially after a vindaloo the night before.

ixion Fri 27-Nov-20 19:57:03

Was hoping to go last as redemption from a night of over-pleasuring and indulgence but this is now in anticipation of same...
Mike please (is it cleaned with an antiseptic wipe?).
Noooo,rien de rien, je ne regrette RIEN. ???.
I flatter myself that my renditions are on a par with Edith's in René's bar.
What's that, they're demanding???

AGAA4 Fri 27-Nov-20 19:56:10

I'm up next with 'bend me shake me'

Callistemon Fri 27-Nov-20 19:52:05

able seamen are jostling to have a go

Where's the First Lieutenant?
He's rather a good baritone (so he said)

Callistemon Fri 27-Nov-20 19:50:30

Karaoke? I'm there!!

Copacabana here I come

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 19:43:13

Karaoke is set up now, and the able seamen are jostling to have a go, but I promised ixion first go on it......you sock it to ‘em girl!

lemongrove Fri 27-Nov-20 19:41:27

You look great Doodle if I didn’t know it was you under that beard, feathered hat and waxed moustaches I would definitely fancy you.
No cocktails tonight, I had a busy day, but we are on the absinthe if you care to join us Laura, bottoms up! Or should I say derrieres.

AGAA4 Fri 27-Nov-20 19:40:44

The poteen is strong enough to kill viruses as big as a horse

ixion Fri 27-Nov-20 19:37:54

LauraNorder Fri 27-Nov-20 19:32:30

Careful with that poteen I saw the captain trimming his beard over that. No different to usual but when he trimmed his nostril hair I did wonder if that was snot the sort of kick we want in the poteen

LauraNorder Fri 27-Nov-20 19:29:08

Pouring down out there, here I am like a drowned dog, just call me Pawthos. What are the cocktails this week?

AGAA4 Fri 27-Nov-20 19:25:54

I just found a moustache in my poteen
Whose is it?

ixion Fri 27-Nov-20 19:25:04

Ooh please, doodle. Preferably one which doesn't have dubious bits floating in it. Is Porthole Porthos coming? We can't be 'one for all' when we're at half strength.
Do we fraternise with the workhouse next door? (Still finding my feet round here).

Doodle Fri 27-Nov-20 19:15:54

Would you like a pint Aramis before we swashbuckle ?

ixion Fri 27-Nov-20 19:13:15

doodle With you, d'Artagnan. My musket is cocked and ready in anticipation. Lovely moustache - give us a twirl.
I'm d**m glad I slathered myself in 45 year old stale vintage Aramis aftershave. The pong in here is but dreadful. Is it those llamas (what IS their diet?) or the Admiral? (same question).

CraftyGranny Fri 27-Nov-20 18:54:17

Utter Kernutters the lot of you grin grin grin

Just passing by on my way to the workhouse. Have fun.

Doodle Fri 27-Nov-20 18:27:15

I don’t think you could be more buxom Lemon not without tucking them behind your ears. Now get behind the bar wench and serve up a couple of pints in tankards for me and the boys ?
