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. ?

Doodle will you present the photos and evidence to Hazel Nutt and collect the substantial payment?

ixion Sun 25-Apr-21 09:49:16

Do we get paid per each in flagrante delicto snapped?
I think we should be expanding the range of the Wellness Spa somehow.
The hot tub is proving an invaluable asset. What else would help? I'm not very gym-my as you would know if you saw me?
Could we offer smoothies from the Tea Rooms? You know the sort - stupid names, lurid colours......

For the fitness freaks we could offer a run with a llama? Most run with a dog but more upmarket with a llama.

Superb effort gang. Mrs Nutt has paid up. She has decided to forgive Mr Nutt and has dealt with him in her own way. He might need a new surname from now on ?

Payslips are ready for all under the bar. Nice relaxing day off from Agency business.
Smoothies are a good idea. I fancy relaxing in the hot tub with a banana surprise. ?

Couldn't let the lovely weather and the Agency day off pass by.
Lavender, I believe, is very good for one's well being, so I have planted some out the back for the punters to relax and inhale the fragrance. Let's face it, on bad days, we need something.

I prefer a spliff meself ixion ( not made of lavender!) but it was a kind thought on your part.
Have just had a phone call from Lord Lemongrove , a tearful one ( on his part) begging me to return to him.Have thought it over and have agreed, we can use the diamonds and gold bullion to do up Lemongrove Manor, in time for the Christmas Ball there.?
Great financial acumen Doodle to add to the tearoom venture by a private detective agency ( I taught you well, young one)?
Start by nabbing Rich Reggie, his nefarious doings are stuff of legends, but the latest one is smuggling budgies! He packs the poor things in empty rum bottles, and is down at the port right now, alert the coastguards! We all know a budgie smuggler when we see one, eh girls?

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 18:09:26

Better the devil you know, lemon, and lord Lemongrove is certainly a bit of a devil at times! Good luck getting back together, second honeymoon and all that.
I’m going undercover to ensnare RR, disguised as a budgie supplier - 100 each green and blue, sir? No probs.
Can you cover me with some back up, maybe pant and her underwire?

Such good news you’re back together again lemon make sure he makes it up to you ?
There’s a bit of a party going on in the hot tub upstairs, lots of giggles and splashing and some pink rubber ducks have just appeared ...

Doodle Sun 25-Apr-21 19:07:39

Help I can’t swim.......someone throw me a life belt....ooh hello Thor ...have you come to rescue me ......oooh I like this hot tub..?

Pantglas2 Sun 25-Apr-21 19:19:06

I’m incognito Grandmajet but rest assured I’ll be peeping monitoring your every move, ensuring your safety at all times ?️‍♀️

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 19:21:50

The budgies have all learned to say ‘Reggie did it, Reggie did it’, so he’ll get caught for his budgie smuggling ways!
Now where’s this hot tub party.......??

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 19:22:31

Who said that???

brook2704 Sun 25-Apr-21 19:50:24

There’s music, dancing and bubbly on tap.... an Elvis lookalike has just shown up and sausages sizzling on the Bbq

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 19:51:56

Oh, it’s you, pant! Did you get the deal with RR on your wire? And the tell-tale budgies?
I think we’ve got him.

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 19:53:17

Yay!
Are you sure it’s a lookalike, brook? Only I’ve heard a rumour about Elvis...............

brook2704 Sun 25-Apr-21 19:58:40

He’s all shook up jet I don’t know ..

brook2704 Sun 25-Apr-21 19:59:12

Something about it’s now or never ...

Doodle Sun 25-Apr-21 21:17:08

Don’t be Cruel, you lot just have Suspicious Minds.
Party on all.
Pants I don’t want to worry you but I think you’re picking up Radio 4 on your underwired bra. Perhaps you should tune your underwear to a different channel. ?

Pantglas2 Sun 25-Apr-21 21:23:49

Ooh Doodle I’ve had the Comms chappie twiddling with me buttons all evening ...? he says he’s trying to get a good reception but I’m not sure I can improve on the perfect signals wot I’m givin ‘im at the moment ?

grandmajet Sun 25-Apr-21 22:40:49

Is Elvis singing The Shipping Forecast, or is it pant’s underwire?

Doodle Sun 25-Apr-21 22:42:28

Are you sure it’s your buttons he’s been twiddling Pants ?

AGAA4 Mon 26-Apr-21 16:20:20

Pant your bra has been interfering with the TV signal in the area. Why is it taking the Comms chap so long to sort it out?

I noticed that the Argy budgies have all been taken by RR. I will miss Chippy, Sparky and Bud and their cheerful chirping.

Pantglas2 Mon 26-Apr-21 16:23:08

Well AGA he’s having the best reception any chappie ever had with me so he must be doing something right with his tuning fork...?

AGAA4 Mon 26-Apr-21 16:26:03

Can you ask him to stick it out the window and maybe our TVs will work...after you have finished with him of course.
