A Very Argy Christmas

Yep definitely the Captain, that’s me and maddy both spotted him

muse may I have some of that special spice for the poteen? It will give it a bit of extra oomph.
May need to have plenty of scatter cushions around in the bar for when people fall down. They will need somewhere soft to land and the Admiral isn't always available.

AGA I’m on it. I will pop along to see my old mate Charlie at the Cheep and Cheerful cushion factory today and see if he’s got any rejects we can use.

Cheap not Cheep ?

I'll do my best AGAA4. Anyone spot where the Admiral went to?
That was the only bottle MrM had. He's still locked away making more but shouted it'll be another 48 hrs before the spice has finished fermenting.

muse he was last seen with May Hem at the front door singing Frosty the Snowman

May Hem was thrown out of Lemongrove Hall. I hoped she wouldn't come back to the Argy but here she is and causing mayhem as usual.
We need to prise MrM from her clutches as we need the spice.

Thanks for the cushions doodle. They are too nice for drunks to fall on so I will cover them with the llamas' old blankets. The smell will make sure they sober up quickly.

I managed to prize the bottle out of May Hem's hands. They've drunk most of the bottle. We'd better save what's left of the Shenanigan spice for Tom.

Well done muse good idea to keep it for Tom, although I’ve not seen him yet this week ?

Alarma is now having another one of her tantrums over her blanket being used for the cushions. Best keep those fishnet stockings out of the way or she’ll grab them instead

Err sorry Brook I’m afraid Tom hasn’t been up to performing ………on stage. He’s been otherwise occupied

Glad you got the spice back muse

Worry not brook I have purchased two pairs of stockings from Madame Pom Pom for Alarma. I’ll give them to her now and she will be so busy preening she won’t worry about the blankets.

Wonderful smells coming from the cellar AGA have you got a name for our Christmas brew. We should start advertising it.

Deadly Dynamite. It will blow you away.
Talking of Dyna Mite (she always did) is a friend of May Hem. I heard she is back in town so keep alert. She has also been banned from the Argy.

Think we should cast them as Drizella and Anastasia in our Cinderella panto

Like the sound of the Poteen AGA but not keen on its namesake Dyna Mite. When she and May Hem get together they can be trouble. Casting them in our panto is a good idea Brook they might behave if we give them something to do.
Send them to Madame Pom Pom for their costumes.
I just hope Dyna’s sister Armour Geddon doesn’t decide to join them.

Oh no, I hope she doesn’t Doodle. I did hear that she was joining her sister for Christmas but it might just be a rumour.

Those feisty lasses will be well matched by some of our old Army friends who have promised to pop in, Major Catastrophe is a real hoot and General Chaos can always be relied upon to shake things up.They are staying with us at the Manor and say they can’t wait to meet the regulars in here.
Not that there’s anything remotely regular about either the staff or the customers in The Argy.

But is Private Nurse coming along with them in view of their great age and errr, the likelihood of their taking in great quantities of poteen and whatever’s left of the Shenanigan Spice?

And I don’t what will happen if they get a glance at those stockings that Doodle got from Madame Pom Pom’s.

I can see trouble ahead if all the above mentioned are at the Argy plus black stockings. I will have to make another brew to counteract the Deadly Dynamite and the deadly Dyna Mite. I will add camomile and lavender and a hefty dose of sleeping pills if things get a bit out of hand.
I know the staff at the Argy are well used to brawls often started by one of us but we will need some calming potion to help.

I’ve rolled up my sleeves ready AGA so let’s get on with it. We’ll need very large quantities of poteen. I hope it’ll taste alright with all those extra additives. Never mind, they won’t notice.

Thanks Maddy. You are right we will need s a lot and I can't find Bjorn. I hope May Hem or Dyna Mite haven't got their hands on him. He is a good looking hunk so I wouldn't be surprised.

That’s me and Bjorn just back from taking the llamas out for the afternoon kiddie rides - they’re looking very festive and have dressed up as reindeer and unicorns to entertain the children, even Alarma behaved after I bribed her with chips

Bjorn is all yours now AGA ?

You did well to get Alarma to behave brook and thanks for bringing Bjorn back. He is needed. For the brewing of course.

Thanks brook we need extra cash, hope Alarma didn’t nip any of the kids though, last thing we need is a lawsuit.
Disappointing about the pasties muse as the punters were going mad for them.
Aga could you shove a handful of pep pills into the poteen and maybe a packet of laxatives whilst you’re at it?

Will do lemon although the sleeping pills, pep pills and laxative may have an explosive effect. The poteen is very strong too. ? ? ?
