Oooh, it’s not unusual for me to fancy Tom Jones, is he in tight trousers? Not that it matters ☺️Am only interested in his mind.I may stay around for a while in case he comes into the bar.

I didn’t know it was a ticketed event, but I slipped the old guy on the door ( who was that ?!) a sixpence and he let me in.
Am so busy these days managing Lemongrove Manor ( falling down around our ears) not to mentioning Lord L, who is to be found most days clutching a whisky in one hand and a 12 bore in the other ( that’s a gun btw not the chairman if the parish council ) that I have little time for anything else.
Soooooo, how’s AB12 going? Got much work? The tearoom has been a roaring success, I hear they come for miles to see Thor’s macaroons. Where’s that old seadog, the Admiral? Is he still around? A pint of your finest poteen please, and I’ll buy a few of those furry hats ( llama?) for sale on the bar, three for a pound did you say? Daylight robbery! I’ll give you three shillings.

May Hem is a man magnet. I hope she brings Tom back. We need her for the hot tub and he has made promises to us all.

The traitor! He promised to help me plant up my hanging basket today!

AGAA4 Sat 15-May-21 11:10:47

May found her way back and Tom has gone off with her, the hussy! After all the trouble we went to with the Fabulous Can Can.

Was it a draughty night, doodle??

grandmajet Sat 15-May-21 10:35:40

Oh doodle, have you got your leg down yet? Maybe if I swing on your foot.......

AGAA4 Sat 15-May-21 10:17:26

Good to see Mawb in the Argy. I've only been on GN for a few years but liked Maw's posts.

Doodle Fri 14-May-21 22:55:17

Aw Maw you came. So pleased. We must have a knees up for you next week. For those of us whose knees still move.
I suppose we could waft a duster around but once the kitcheners get in the Argy, the twin set and pearls go out of the window ......as I know to my cost ?

ixion Fri 14-May-21 22:42:18

Are they cultured, Brook? Maybe afternoon tea on the roof top terrace? Or a leisure pass to the Wellness Spa? Nails 'n' spray tan?
Or just a general booze up in the Bar?

brook2704 Fri 14-May-21 22:37:05

Ooooh Maw how lovely to see you in the Argy!
You’re just in time for the grand finale, you can sit next to Sir Tom in the front row ... ??

MawBe Fri 14-May-21 22:30:05

Ooh Sir Tom! (That is Jones and not Captain?)
And the can can dancers?
However, as my Mum used to say, just because you can can doesn’t necessarily mean you should should
???

brook2704 Fri 14-May-21 22:18:52

Hopefully we’re going to get some VIPs next week over from the kitchen... do you think we need to tidy up a bit and look errr organised?

brook2704 Fri 14-May-21 22:17:05

Excellent plan Doodle ?

brook2704 Fri 14-May-21 22:16:17

Where’s the Admiral when you need him? I’m sure he can distract May for us ...

Doodle Fri 14-May-21 22:15:39

Right ixion it’s in hand. I’ve tied this rope round May’s waist and attached the other end to Gnasher. Thor is going to run in front of him with a plate of sausage rolls and Gnasher will drag May out and down Pigs Trotter Alley before you can say Bye Bye ?

ixion Fri 14-May-21 22:06:53

Look, for the umpteenth time, please will someone remove May? She is queering our pitch (can we still say this??) stealing our thunder. Miaow.

Doodle Fri 14-May-21 21:59:46

Oh please help me get my leg down. I can’t get in the tub like this. Where’s the WD 40.
brook, ixion make sure you’re charging enough. It’s been a great night so far.

NO.!!! Gnasher you can’t get in the tub with Sir Tom. Sigh. Stop sulking and have a sausage roll.

ixion Fri 14-May-21 21:47:11

This is a ticketed event, brook.
Kerching?

brook2704 Fri 14-May-21 21:40:20

Oooh I think he’ll love the hot tub! Anyone going in with him? ?

Doodle Fri 14-May-21 21:38:41

Ooh thanks gang. I don’t think anyone noticed.
Can you get a fireman here to get my leg down.....ever hopeful ?

ixion Fri 14-May-21 21:32:54

No, Sir Tom, NOT May Hem.
see note above

grandmajet Fri 14-May-21 21:27:53

Come on, Sir Tom, into the Argy and just Help Yourself! (To whatever you want. Flashing bloomers)

ixion Fri 14-May-21 21:26:53

I'll take him to the hot tub, oasis of calm, and give him a hefty tankard of poteen.
Just get rid of May, will you? He's old enough to be her grandfather.

ixion Fri 14-May-21 21:22:09

Let's have a quick vote on a M.O?
