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.

Does anyone have sensitive hearing? I’ve acquired a really noisy squeaky toy in the shape of a magic wand for gentle thin dog to join in the fun.

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 13:53:24

Just calling in to borrow thin dog for gentle walkies, if I may?
Feeling a bit, well, er flat.
Won't be long, promise❤️

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 14:06:50

Thin ? returned as promised.
Locking up.

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 16:14:04

ixion you have locked Thor, the Admiral and me in. We were in the cellar when you returned with thin dog.
Never mind there is plenty of poteen with a magic brew added and a pie that Laura made. Think it was for tomorrow and we have guzzled every scrap blush

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 16:16:41

Crate of Chappie? - or was that in the pie?

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 16:17:19

I have added stardust to this week's poteen (Andrews Liver Salts) and a dash of fairy dust - just some dust I found on the bar. There's always plenty of dust there.

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 16:23:00

You may be right ixion the dog was guzzling with us but the admiral has started to go barking mad and Thor has turned green.
May be a good act for tomorrow.

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 16:44:41

Busily stirring the slugs and maggots in to the stew. Are you ready to add the skunk spray ixion? Carefully now, it has strong aroma. Singing as we work ?it’s a kinda magic?

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 16:59:35

Phew! Kitchen staff haven't noticed that the enormous pie has gone. The llamas licked up all the crumbs. Magic Moments - I will sing that at the karaoke tomorrow.

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:04:29

I had noticed the missing pie AGA.
I’ll know who scoffed it when the frothing of the mouth occurs. A whole box of Omo was baked in that pie but only three and twenty blackbirds.

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 17:11:18

Could we do a disappearing potion next, please, Chef?

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:12:32

Saved one blackbird for Thor as he loves stuffing a bird.

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:14:34

Go ahead ixion, the floor is all yours, I’ll be in the bar having a Singapore Sling.

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 17:15:31

Should I invite the Defence Against the Dark Arts master over for some potion recipes?
Pleeeeeease?
(Eat your heart out, GC)

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:15:34

Let me be the first to try your potion

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 17:19:22

There is a poteeon in the poteen.

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:19:57

Don’t eat any hearts ixion save them for the next pie.
Invite who you like but if he’s as sexy as he sounds, lock him in a cupboard when Lemon comes in or she’ll exhaust him.

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 17:20:12

Nah, NOT for you.......

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:20:47

Make sure you have an antidote for your disappearing potion.

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:21:52

Ah, I see, no antidote necessary

LauraNorder Thu 04-Feb-21 17:22:23

As you were

AGAA4 Thu 04-Feb-21 17:41:13

Looking forward to seeing what Lisa will be almost wearing.
Thor has finished my outfit now. A midnight blue gown covered in moons and stars and possibly a few other things as the night wears on.

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 17:44:03

Well, if that doesn't have the desired effect, I shall be looking for victims volunteers for my pièce de resistance, sawing people in half.
?

Doodle Thu 04-Feb-21 19:26:05

I have got my tent ready in the corner. My Crystal ball has been polished ( Thor didn’t seem to mind) and i have got my tarot cards ready.
Right all you have to do is cross my palm with silver and I shall tell you all life holds in store. ?

ixion Thu 04-Feb-21 20:20:42

Can you summon up your inner Madame Arcati, Doodle?
Powers to call up those who are no longer with us?
