Service as usual in the Argy folks but with the addition of our new roof top tea garden. In the words of the famous Basil Fawlty, no riffraff. ?

Impressed by the photos especially that particular one of Nora and Nutt in the front garden. No doubt about what he is up to.

Agent 99 to Doodle. We have enough evidence against naughty Nutt now. As well as Sexy Sadie, Naughty Nora and Pneumatic Naomi he also visited Topheavy Tania, Pretty Polly, Moaning Minnie the Minx and Voluptuous Vera. No wonder Mrs Nutt complains about his lack of, er, desire!
The box brownie is in the safe.
Time for a little ? before making ???? for the tearoom afternoon service. Multi talented, that’s me.

? This is command HQ ?️ . grandmajet if Nutt catches sight of you in the privet, tell him you got caught short and had to go behind it blush
If we need to set a trap, Pants could pretend to be a customer on his round and tape his advances on her under wired bra.
Over and out ?

Code 13 code 13 ... you’ve been spotted jet ... get away quick!

brook2704 Sat 24-Apr-21 22:46:40

I wonder how big his round is ... we could be here all night ?

brook2704 Sat 24-Apr-21 22:45:22

Just nibble a bit off the edge jet if the brownies a bit big to manoeuvre

ixion Sat 24-Apr-21 22:32:59

The float's stopped again outside Pneumatic Naomi's - can you get there with the BB, grandmajet?
Do you have enough film?

He doesn't hang around with his gold top, does he?

grandmajet Sat 24-Apr-21 22:15:02

Got him again, running away from Naughty Nora’s. This box brownie is a bit hard to manoeuvre in a privet hedge.

brook2704 Sat 24-Apr-21 21:28:32

There’s a bit of a kerfuffle going on st Naughty Noras ... I think he’s been caught at it and he’s trying to make a quick getaway

brook2704 Sat 24-Apr-21 21:23:07

Yep spotted him too with the infrared binoculars ...
Gnashers doing a brilliant job impersonating a lamppost and keeping an eye on things too..

grandmajet Sat 24-Apr-21 21:16:12

Now he’s entering Naughty Nora’s doorway.

grandmajet Sat 24-Apr-21 21:13:02

Yess. Got him.

AGAA4 Sat 24-Apr-21 20:39:35

Nutt has been spotted going up Sexy Sadie's path. Who has got the box brownie?

ixion Sat 24-Apr-21 20:21:13

I have placed a tracker on the back of his float.
We can plot his activities as he goes round.

ixion Sat 24-Apr-21 20:17:49

Who gets the night shift surveillance on Norty Nutt?
Is it double time?

Pantglas2 Sat 24-Apr-21 20:13:06

Well as my Stiffgits will testify, Doodle, I already have underwiring and have received many an SOS from souls in distress ? and have gone above and beyond to save and succour, as it were ?

grandmajet Sat 24-Apr-21 20:06:17

brook, do you still have your infra red binoculars, you could watch from his place of residence, and let me know if he steps outside. Co-ordinate and synchronise our actions.

grandmajet Sat 24-Apr-21 20:03:09

I’m so sorry lemon, he turned out to be a bad’n. Have a good man hunt in Jersey, you’ll soon find another one. Lots of rich men there.
I gave the peashooter a good wipe, doodle, what do you think I’m like!
I’ve found a good source of pea shooters from the big river company, complete with peas. We can add poisoned tips if necessary.
I can keep overnight surveillance on milkman Nutt’s milk float, I’m hiding in the privet hedge behind the dairy.
Over and out. Roger. (Whoever he is).

ixion Sat 24-Apr-21 19:50:20

Having a problem sourcing suitable CCTV but will keep trying.
Secret Sidney wasn't much cop, TBH.
He seems to be stuck in the 1950s

AGAA4 Sat 24-Apr-21 19:40:06

Hazel Mutt wants her husband watched. His milk round is taking 18 hours a day and all night sometimes.

AGAA4 Sat 24-Apr-21 19:34:34

Inspector Undercrump who seems to have his finger on the pulse and other places will send us clients who the police can't help.

Being the somewhat senior member of the Argy I think perhaps I ought to work undercover at the bar where I can keep an eye on the goings on in the spa, the bar and the Tea room and watch over the safe too.
I think we will convert the storeroom in the corner behind the bar to comms central. So I can keep an eye on things from there.
ixion you are in charge of getting our CCTV cameras. Secret Sidney on the high street should be able to help you. He had contacts with the underworld..........or is it underwear...?. Not sure.
Pants talking of underwear, you could go with ixion and get yourself set up with wired bra (if you know what I mean wink wink)
Grandmajet did you er actually rinse the pea shooter before putting it in the dishwasher ?
In view of the fact you now have a shooter, you can be in charge of our firearms department. Please arrange pea shooters for all.
AGA as you are so good at keeping your mouth shut (well sometimes) you can be in charge of the secrets service.
Poor lemon I am so sorry Reggie let you down. Have a good time in Jersey. We can keep hold of the bridesmaids dresses, with all the money you got from RR I’m sure you’ll be able to buy a toy boy soon.
Right, anyone know who our next client is?

It may not have been a good idea leaving the Admiral in charge of the Argy last night. There was no money taken as he decided to have a Happy Night and let the punters have free everything. He was very popular as you can imagine.

Head llama Gnasher was on duty with AB 12 so the others ran amok after drinking a barrel of poteen. What a mess this morning!
