The Argy Bargy Bar is back!

Just two house rules to remember Janet and BigBertha
Keep a pair of marigolds about you all the time and keep a hand on your ha’penny, we get a rough lot in here.....don’t take any nonsense.

Thanks for plates Pittcity did you get them from Plato the bubble, down the market? He’s an old friend of The Argy from way back, he said he might pop in on Friday with his mate Ari to give us a few authentic Greek songs.

I wonder if a pint of poteen goes well with an ouzo chaser?
I’ll sit here for a bit with my plate of stuffed olives ( thanks Laura not sure what you stuffed them with... J cloth?)

I’m a little scared now Lemongrove. I may dig out my liberty bodice as extra protection - will it still fit do you think? I need room for the delicious stuffed olives.

Tell Vlad to line up a generous Dark & Stormy for me please. Got a long day tomorrow and will need it. Rum, Ginger Beer and Lime. Heavy on the rum please.

I may still be in wellies so please excuse my muddy footprints.

Just watched Junior Bake Off. They made a falafel with a yorkshire pudding. Is chef up to this?

Meant to say - It will be my first time in The Argy Bargy Bar. Perhaps I'd better leave the wellies at the door!

A likely story muse.....have seen you in here many a time,
Knocking it back and flirting with Thor! I have been admiring your long black wig.....are you a Goth?

muse Keep those wellies on, girl. You'll be needing them, believe me.

Hermes at the front door.
Anyone expecting a delivery?

Oh dear muse, I fear you’ve been led astray already. I sent you to soop’s kitchen where I thought you’d be safe but now I see you’ve found your way into the den of iniquity which is the Argy. Leave your manners and good behaviour at the door. Be warned you may never get to leave this place ?

ixion that’s priceless
Welcome BigBertha. Big girls are always welcome in the Argy just look out for the old sea dog the Admiral who has an eye for the ladies and the more of them the better as far as he’s concerned.
JanetG that liberty bodice is a bit small. There’s more of you on the outside than there is inside it. ?

Hermes at the front door.
Anyone expecting a delivery?

Oh thank goodness- I read that as HERPES!

Just off to locate the delivery from yesterday - no-one opened the door so he unceremoniously had dumped it further down the street, apparently?‍♀️

Now, no talking about me and speculating in my absence, please?

BRB

Ouf (puffs heavily)
Hope you're feeling musical tonight!
Two huge boxes of bouzoukis.....
Can someone please put the spellcheck on The Admiral's laptop, and check out his search engine?

Bouzoukis? Nah! We don’t want any huge hounds in here thanks, bad enough with the llamas ( and who’s idea were those I should like to know!)

We dragged the wooden horse round the back btw, punters kept falling over it.
Is there anything inside? I thought I heard moanings.

Have sent Franz, Thor and Vlad ,our energetic bar staff, (when you can get them off their backs) down to the market, though Franz was complaining a bit, as he has agoraphobia!
Anyway, they will buy as much goats cheese, olives and eggs as they can carry.I shall be making my trademark Greek salad for supper ( with added mystery ingredients.....many grown in the back alley.)

George Clooney had to leave us this morning, he has a bit of filming lined up in LA, but says he’s missing us already.
He’s cleaned the Nespresso machine and said something about ‘tarts’ before he jumped in his car, so maybe there are some sweet treats around in the kitchen.

anyone? I think I need two cups, or is that a double entendre??

lemongrove
Are you sure George has really gone?
Those suspicious groanings continue to emanate from the Wooden Horse.
Should we do a roll call?

Are the barmen back yet? I didn’t realise we had a choice of three! I could do with an ouzotini, to give me courage to exit my liberty bodice. I hope they’re not stuck in the wooden horse!
I’m really looking forward to back alley salad!

It's all Greek to me

ixion you took the very words out of my mouth. In that ghastly place, wellies would be insufficient- you will need waders. As you can probably gather, I have standards and would never ever enter that place. I did once but never again.

I wondered about the graffiti on the sign over the door

Abandon Hope Class All Ye Who Enter Here

Cruel.

ixion as I said, I have standards and would never lower myself to that level.
