THE GRAND ARGY EASTER EGG HUNT ?

(99 Posts)
Doodle Sat 16-Apr-22 19:46:16

The Argy will be open Easter Sunday and Monday. All are welcome.
Thor and Sven will be behind the bar in their Bunny costumes.
AGA has brewed a magical chocolate and Poteen cocktail called Bunny’s Revenge.
We have a chocolate fountain, karaoke, comfy sofas and a special visit from the Captain and Admiral who are doing a version of that Hot Chocolate classic You Sexy Thing.
George (Grandmabatty willing) will be dispensing coffee for all who can’t take the hard stuff.
Chocolate eggs are hidden in secret places. Tell us if you find one and where.
Please don’t leave me on my own…….is anyone there? ????

I have the same problem Grandmabatty and find the best solution is to get him to hold them in his lovely soft hands ?...?. Oh, excuse me while I have a lie down, I’ve come over all unnecessary ?

Form an orderly queue ladies, these ? tickets are going like hot cakes cross buns!

I’ll be off with Alarma to Madam Pom Poms soon Doodle and get her kitted to lead the Easter Bonnet parade later. The little lovelies from Pigstrotter Alley primary are coming along too. We’d best keep Thor and Sven locked in the cellar with AGA and I’ll distract the Admiral and the Captain with something ….

I've been up since 4 brewing. Those rabbits have drunk the bar dry. I had a go on the bouncy castle earlier. Wow that man can bounce so high.

AGAA4 Sun 17-Apr-22 08:37:04

brook can you pop in to Hotel Chocolat with Alarma please? She has been complaining that the small chocolate buttons egg was not good enough and she wants a £30 one from HC.
Either that or lock her in the shed with the Admiral while the parade is on.

Good idea Aga she’s so happy now she’ll do anything for us later .. ?

Crikey Doodle, that's an early start to the festivities.
Is Thumper an early riser?

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 10:15:53

Grandmabatty are you sure Brad is sleeping it off of just comatose from too much activity (I haven’t forgotten the state George was in when you brought him back last time)
Ooh that’s a good idea Pants . I’ll have a whole book of tickets please……do I get staff discount?
ixion, turned out Thumper didn’t have much in the way of stamina and became a bit of a slacker …..if you see what I mean.
Well done Brook. What a prima Donna she is. I just hope she’s not sick after eating all that chocolate.
AGA I thought I’d heard you banging about in the cellar. I was coming down to see if you needed help but I wasn’t quite sure what you were up to.
Rufus is still recovering from your visit…..he said he’s never been called a bouncy castle before. ?
I’m going out to the paddock to hide some more eggs.
Sir Tom is coming over soon. Ive booked him to hand out the prize for the best Easter bonnet competition.

The word got out Doodle.
I could smell the brew AGA even up here in the Muse Mess hut kitchens. Mr’s been busy. I’ve no idea what he’s put inside them but here’s a tray of his Easter pasties for lunch.

Enjoy.

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 10:21:02

Here’s mine…….must remember to pluck my chin before the parade.?

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 10:23:18

muse I am seriously impressed. Those look so good.

I hope you’ve got your bonnet ready.

brook2704 Sun 17-Apr-22 10:28:15

Ahhhh Sir Tom egg-selent news ..

ixion Sun 17-Apr-22 10:29:48

Help?
There's a coach load outside looking for Lord Lemon?‍♀️
Is the Manor open to all comers for visitors this weekend?

brook2704 Sun 17-Apr-22 10:30:32

Well Alarma is just about ready now, Madam Pom Pom did her proud ..

brook2704 Sun 17-Apr-22 10:33:56

Might as well bring them all in here ixion we’ll have to open the roof terrace at this rate ..

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 10:54:47

Brook wonderful grin Alarma looks amazing.
ixion I think Lord And Lady Lemongrove might be sailing the seas.
As Brook says, bring them in and we’ll send them up to the roof terrace with the Admiral to keep them company.

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 11:00:17

Look out. May Hem’s arrived with her bunny escort.

AGAA4 Sun 17-Apr-22 11:02:25

muse thank you for the pasty. I need all the energy I can get today iyswim.
brook Alarma looks wonderful. Has to be the winner. Has to be .....you know what she's like!
Has doodle disappeared with Rufus again? I thought I saw them skinny dipping in the pond.

Grandmabatty Sun 17-Apr-22 11:05:00

AGAA4 Sun 17-Apr-22 11:15:11

Grandmabatty Sun 17-Apr-22 11:18:04

Thought I would bring a norty bunny with me.

ixion Sun 17-Apr-22 11:31:52

Looks like Aga 's put him in the cellar already.
Just how many can she handle?

maddyone Sun 17-Apr-22 11:46:20

I’m on my way ?

AGAA4 Sun 17-Apr-22 11:48:35

Doodle Sun 17-Apr-22 12:36:55

maddyone don’t forget your Easter bonnet.
Grandmabatty where did you find him ?. Wow! He’s eggstrodinary.

Grandmabatty Sun 17-Apr-22 12:48:05

Robin Windsor, a former strictly hunk, I mean dancer. Sadly he is probably more interested in bucks rather than does. But nice to look at nevertheless.
