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.

Franz and I have just been out the back ( don’t ask) and while there heard that moaning sound again from the Trojan Horse.
Mystery solved! It’s GrannyGravy and George, she must have waylaid him at the station and they have been in there all day.I have just dragged the hussy out, and Franz has driven George to catch his train.He should have been in LA by now.

Hope they made it to the train. They were both legless. Franz because of cocktails and George because of Grannygravy

ixion Fri 29-Jan-21 21:44:15

There - I said to check that George had really departed earlier! I must say that I am amazed by his stamina, he's hardly in the first flush of youth, bless him. Mind you, by the time he's done the daily school run with the twins, picked up a food shop on the way back and put the hoover round, he must be reasonably fit.

I was going to offer a Banana Mouskouri song but I have neither the sheet music nor the appropriate specs to perform a faithful rendition.

A joke? In the absence of She Who Cannot Be Named and her comedy turn -

What's a Greek urn?
Around 2 drach a week

(Boom Boom)

Help yourself Laura. They may be rather salty, I’ve been busy on the dance floor. Lemongrove can really belt out a tune.

Doodle Fri 29-Jan-21 21:55:17

Urms you look ........interesting. Is that a bed sheet you’re wearing?
Grannygravy get out of my Trojan Horse. I’m riding that home later . Zorba is apparently an expert rider and he’s promised to give me some mounting experience tonight?

Doodle Fri 29-Jan-21 21:59:05

ixion that is indeed a she who cannot be named joke. Wish she was here to tell it ?
You can borrow lemon’s specs for your song ixion she’s so far gone she won’t miss them ?

Doodle Fri 29-Jan-21 22:01:11

AGA this weeks poteen and ouzo combination is lethal. I’ve only had 6 pints and I’m drunk already ?

ixion Fri 29-Jan-21 22:16:11

Whispers, red faced
What does 'come after the Lord Mayor's Show', please, lemon??

muse Fri 29-Jan-21 22:49:53

? Hi lemon. Spotted you as I parked me tractor up round back. wink Think I'll have what you're on wink Make it a treble.
Swine of a day today. Need to let me hair down and get these wellies off.

Urmstongran Fri 29-Jan-21 23:05:33

It is a bed sheet Doodle. I thought I’d twisted it round enough to make it interesting but I’ve got me bits caught up in in somewhat. I’ve been bluddy uncomfortable all night. That’s why I wasn’t up on the dance floor. I was anxious I’d become unravelled.

Doodle Fri 29-Jan-21 23:08:38

Ah that explains why you have your right boob hitched up over your left shoulder. I’m not surprised you’re uncomfortable.
muse if you don’t mind me saying you’re a bit pongy. What is that stuck to the bottom of your wellies ?

JanetG Fri 29-Jan-21 23:09:45

I need to go home before I disgrace myself further. Can I borrow the wooden horse to ride home? I’m legless and he has four.

Doodle Fri 29-Jan-21 23:39:00

Zorba and I are leaving now too so we can give you a lift Janet. Just open that little trap door in the horses tummy and climb in. When we arrive at your house pull the horses tail and you will be ejected out of its bottom ?. Zorba and I will then gallop off to enjoy a night of bare back riding ?

JanetG Fri 29-Jan-21 23:55:58

Yeeeeha

ixion Sat 30-Jan-21 11:16:04

Rawhide Doodle??

LauraNorder Sat 30-Jan-21 15:06:11

I bet she has Ixion

lemongrove Sat 30-Jan-21 15:29:00

?
Now norty ixion you know what comes after the Lord Mayor’s Show ( and very good for the rhubarb it is too!)

Wot a nite! Have only just got up ( as the bishop said to the actress)
That ouzo lacks a punch, especially mixed with the poteen, well done our own brewer AGA??✨

lemongrove Sat 30-Jan-21 15:30:56

Packs not lacks AGA ? have a rest for a day or two before you get cracking in the cellar again.
Suggestions for next week please? In other words what special nite shall we hold next?

lemongrove Sat 30-Jan-21 15:32:14

Janet you fit in here so well, I knew you would as soon as I saw your fishnet stockings.?

AGAA4 Sat 30-Jan-21 15:43:35

I am a bit shattered lemon. Thor had me at it for days. He likes to get it just right. I will take your advice and leave the brewing for a few days.
Janet will be an good addition to the strumpets staff who work at the Argy. I wonder what she will catch in her fishnets?

ixion Sat 30-Jan-21 16:16:37

Magic Circle Nite?
Circus Nite?

LauraNorder Sat 30-Jan-21 16:26:08

Ooh great ideas *ixion.

lemongrove Sat 30-Jan-21 16:29:20

Let’s have a democratic vote ?
My vote is for magic circle nite.

AGAA4 Sat 30-Jan-21 16:46:01

Mmm.....circus night could be a bit too acrobatic for me. Magic circle nite sounds more sedate as long as I don't have to be Debbie McGee.

AGAA4 Sat 30-Jan-21 16:46:51

And I will work on a magic brew.
