Hello Argies, regulars and newcomers, after meeting Moneybags Mike this evening we have another year’s lease on the bar ( £8/10/6d! Daylight robbery)
Drop in here anytime for a chat, banter and a drink or three.
Every Friday is a ‘theme nite’ there may be a raffle and there is always humour along with strong poteen.

???? ???? What happened there??? I was doing so well with my one legged juggling ....I ?‍♀️think......and now here I am with a big lump on my head....please get off Doodle I can't see ?. Oh no I appear to have had a wardrobe malfunction of the worst kind ? my best spangly leotard with the frilled derriere is no longer frilly and appears derriereless. Oh the shame (blush) . Off to the bar to drown my sorrows...hope there is enough poteen left ???Night night ?

grandmajet Sat 13-Feb-21 12:12:24

Oh hi Happyme. I’m glad it’s you, I thought for a moment that Doodle had brought the moon back the earth with her!
I’d better crack on and muck out the lavs.

Doodle and the llamas are still blotto on the cellar floor. I will have to move them or there will be no brewing. A couple of buckets of ice cold water over the llamas should do it and Thor and I will take Doodleto the saggy armchair in the bar to sleep off her exertions. She seems to have brought someone in a spacesuit back with her. She always manages to nab a man wherever she goes.

AGAA4 Sat 13-Feb-21 15:35:24

Happyme I have left you a pair of bloomers to cover your bare erm .........

Doodle Sat 13-Feb-21 15:35:39

I don’t know who he is AGA but he’s mine ?

AGAA4 Sat 13-Feb-21 15:37:41

He is quite dishy when he takes his helmet off. Maybe not the last thing he takes off Doodle

Happyme Sat 13-Feb-21 17:54:44

Don't think the satellite dish is the only thing Doodle has brought back!! Unless the Argy has a new barman......there is a huge green wobbly alien thing behind the bar...four bloodshot eyes...two huge gaping mouths...eeek. ...Oh as you were, it is my reflection in the mirror. Bad poteen hangover ??

Happyme Sat 13-Feb-21 18:16:34

Thanks for the bloomers AGA, I mistook them for the ?, just my size.
I seem to be missing much recall of last nights events. I have flashbacks of balancing on one leg, regretting my choice of stilletto heels and hoping my frills didn't make my bum look big. My eye was caught by a bejewelled welly swinging slowly back and forward....back and forward...back and forward....made me feel so so sleepy ? then ?? I crashed literally to earth....last I remember was seeing ???☄.
Did I miss much???
?uh oh...not feeling too good.....best dash to lav....?....oops sorry for the mess grandmajet blush

grandmajet Sat 13-Feb-21 20:49:27

Not to worry Happyme. I’ll just lock you in till you’ve cleaned it up.
See you Monday!
Byeee

grandmajet Sat 13-Feb-21 23:07:23

I can’t leave you in there, come on Happyme, take this big hairy coat and snuggle down to sleep it off with the llamas, they’ll think you’re one of them.
Sweet dreams.

Happyme Sat 13-Feb-21 23:46:48

Thankyou Grandmajet , now you mention it I do smell llamaish. Hope they don't snore ????

Doodle Tue 16-Feb-21 20:48:28

Ooh being shot into space like that really shook my insides up.
I don’t think I’ll do that again.
Happy you frightened the life out of me seeing you creeping around like that. Why are you wearing AGA’s bloomers on your head? ?. Is it a new fashion.
Ah, I had a light bulb ? moment. We could have fashion night on Friday. Just extend the bar a bit to make a catwalk and we could all model our own designs and sell some rubbish designer goods to make some money for the kitty.
What do you think ?

ixion Tue 16-Feb-21 22:00:13

Great - but I'll never get down to a size 6 by Friday?

grandmajet Tue 16-Feb-21 22:28:54

I knew there were ????here but I didn’t know there was a ?.

Happyme Tue 16-Feb-21 22:51:20

The Argy needs a ? I am sure I spotted a ?.
Actually Doodle I have AGAs bloomers on properly....they are just very big. Cosy tho being able to pull your bloomers over your head.
Fashion night, ooh I would love an excuse to dress up

Doodle Tue 16-Feb-21 23:29:33

ixion if you get down to a size 6 one of the punters will eat you thinking you’re a bar snack. We will have voluptuous gowns to display our superb bodies.
Where did that cat come from and what are we going to call it.?
ixion you brought it in you will have to feed it. I’ve got enough to do looking after the llamas. If it catches any mice you can give them to Laura to make mouseakka with

ixion Wed 17-Feb-21 08:38:20

Hey - nought to do with me, that cat.
If I saw it, I'd be putting a call into the Humane Rescue society.

AGAA4 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:27:17

It will have to be a fashion display of lovely larger models. I have a duvet cover which will just about fit.
We may need to go to Sexy Sadie's for more alluring bloomers. She also does garters in various sizes.
I can wear my sling back sandals with the 6 inch heels. They haven't been out of the wardrobe since VE day.

ixion Wed 17-Feb-21 16:35:19

I might wear my embroidered 19" loons.
Would wear the fur sleeveless jacket, half inched from my granny's fur coat, but the PETA lot put paid to that decades back.

(And a good job too, I hasten to add?........)

Happyme Wed 17-Feb-21 16:46:11

Welll Dahhlings, trying to tap into my hidden creative vibes but appear to have forgotten where I put them. They are definitely not in my wardrobe ?

AGAA4 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:46:54

Very fetching ixion. Should we dress the llamas in cocktail wear Doodle? You know they always like to join in.

grandmajet Wed 17-Feb-21 16:47:55

Definitely hot pants with white knee length plastic boots for me. Maybe with fishnets?
I don’t think bloomers would fit underneath, Aga. Maybe on top.......

grandmajet Wed 17-Feb-21 16:50:08

I wouldn’t mind being mistaken for a bar snack and being nibbled - although it depends who by.... Did you say George has left?

AGAA4 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:53:14

grandmajet your outfit sounds very stylish. Seem to remember wearing knee length white boots when I was about 16. Almost a century ago.

AGAA4 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:54:16

You would more likely end up being nibbled by the Admiral.
