Coming over to you Jet, ?,loud and clear.
Lots of love from the Bargy Team tonight.

Loving it Ixion

ixion Fri 18-Jun-21 21:20:47

Sloop John B - the Admiral's in pieces hoisting his John B sail?

Actually, he's a slobbering wreck.
Not a pretty sight.

muse Fri 18-Jun-21 21:33:46

Is that your feet humming Grandmabatty? Heard you'd kicked your shoes off.
All that love has drawn me in ixion.
Would you believe it. Those llamas pinched my courgettes on the way in. Nothing to add to the poteen punch tonight now. What's the speciality cocktail Brook? Pint please.

brook2704 Fri 18-Jun-21 21:34:27

This ones for you Jet
Hope you can hear us ! ❤️

brook2704 Fri 18-Jun-21 21:36:34

Its strawberry daiquiri muse with your very own home grown strawberries!

muse Fri 18-Jun-21 21:49:21

Perfect. Easy on the ice though.

My strawbs have a mind of their own.

ixion Fri 18-Jun-21 21:49:35

Appreciate the overshoes on your wellies muse. Thanks!
How's your hole? ?

Grandmabatty Fri 18-Jun-21 21:55:11

Shoes back on Muse. I'll have a strawberry in my tequila please

ixion Fri 18-Jun-21 22:00:30

Any -er- format Grandmabatty? ?

brook2704 Fri 18-Jun-21 22:03:07

Oooh muse those strawberries ?

muse Fri 18-Jun-21 22:23:16

Hole still has MrM in it ixion. I've pulled the ladder up?. He was none to complimentary about my Beach Boys outfit.

ixion Fri 18-Jun-21 22:25:21

You'll be grateful for that wetsuit, muse, when the rains come and your hole fills up☹️

Doodle Fri 18-Jun-21 22:39:03

Just got back everyone. What I night. I could her you all the away across town. I was joining in too. I’m sure jet could hear us.
Right I’ve sold all the tea room furniture and got a good price for it. So we’ve got some cash behind us for the nursery ? and for our next business venture.
I say muse those are some strawberries. ?
grandmabatty just how many tequilas have you had? ?. I never knew anyone could go surfing in a paddling pool…

muse Fri 18-Jun-21 23:34:13

Are we looking after babies or plants Doodle?

Think I'll keep the wet suit on. *grandmabatty says she wants some waves. Any idea where I can get some wind from?

Doodle Fri 18-Jun-21 23:46:58

You must have missed the news muse. Alarma our only female llama (think drama Queen llama) is expecting.
Talking of llamas. If you want wind just point the llamas in the right direction. They all had sprouts for lunch. I will say no more, ?

Doodle Sat 19-Jun-21 20:56:12

Quiet night in the Argy tonight. I could do with a rest.
Llamas needed down for the night. A quiet drink in the bar I think. Thor, give me my usual please. I’ll have a drink too ?

Doodle Sat 19-Jun-21 20:56:36

Llamas bedded down for the night ?

muse Sat 19-Jun-21 21:43:32

Just popped in for a nightcap. I'm fancying one of those horlix things Urm is partial to. Bet she having more than that on her birthday tonight ? ?

By the time I got back with the llamas last night, Grandmabatty had disappeared and so had the paddling pool.

Good news about Alarma. Will look in on her on my way home.

ixion Tue 22-Jun-21 15:05:02

Oi -
Who's pinched our golden lav??

It did add that missing touch of class...

AGAA4 Tue 22-Jun-21 15:13:58

It was me. I wanted to revamp my hovel cottage.

Doodle Tue 22-Jun-21 16:27:16

AGA well really. You’ll be telling me next you’re going to use it for making the poteen.
Ok all, we’re back to basics. All the roof top cafe stuff has gone to its new owner along with Fronc who has promised us discounted rates when we pop into Claude’s coffee house.

The AB12 equipment has been sold off to the Nudge Nudge Wink Wink Agency in town except for ixions camouflage gear which she couldn’t bear to part with (something about a hot date Friday night)

The hot tub is still in situ (but without the attached May Hem) .
We have bought the field out back for the llamas and we can use that for outdoor Argy parties during the summer if we need more space.

Any news on the Travel Agency?

AGAA4 Tue 22-Jun-21 16:34:52

Erm ...doodle that was the idea. My old vat has a crack in it.

I think we are offering tours of the docks at the Travel Agency.
Also sea trips out to Barnacle Island. Ixion is in charge of accommodation.

Doodle Tue 22-Jun-21 21:14:36

Er Accommodation!! Wot here ……in the Argy…..where am I going to sleep ?

ixion Wed 23-Jun-21 20:26:51

Crikey, all this co-opting when I am away?‍♀️
I haven't done anything about the Travel Agency dream idea as yet. Thought that Doodle would flog off our money spinning enterprises (well done you!) and we could reestablish the Argy to its former mission statement until the
pandemic eases?
Let's face it, some of us can't even get to Scotland should we have wanted. And who'd want to flog the paltry green list destinations?
Too much like hard work IMHO.
