Well, Barg-ers and camp followers, good and bad news?☹️.
Can't get a Sleb for love nor readies tonight BUT

I have hired us a Chara, courtesy of May Hem's Dad. We are all orf to the Palace for That concert!
Prime seats guaranteed, free earplugs, close to toilets, bring your knitting for the Ones you haven't heard of...

Bring your Squeeze du Jour, no questions asked?.
Me 'n' Mr. Peaky will be there - we may come mounted, even, but he can leave the horse at the stables round the back, apparently.
Only worry is that we may have to take May Hem.
No worries, I guess she won't even glance at your chap brook - too long in the tooth for bright young things ?

GSM ???. Hadn’t realised how young he was or how old I am.
I just grab whatever’s left at the end of the evening…. ☹️ Suppose that will be the Admiral and the Captain as usual.

Nice horse though.

Germanshepherdsmum Fri 03-Jun-22 22:28:50

Nah.

ixion Fri 03-Jun-22 22:25:03

How about the one with the cheek bones from Peaky Blinders?

Be still, my beating heart

Germanshepherdsmum Fri 03-Jun-22 22:14:13

James? Surely he’s fairly tall? Tom’s definitely too short for me.

ixion Fri 03-Jun-22 22:11:27

He's quite short GSM ?
Aren't you tall?
Could you cope?

Doodle Fri 03-Jun-22 22:08:47

Any takers for Tom…..

brook2704 Fri 03-Jun-22 22:04:14

We’ll squeeze James in somehow Doodle no worries

Germanshepherdsmum Fri 03-Jun-22 22:02:46

Ooh goody!!!!!!!!! Thanks Doodle! I will return him in excellent condition (well, nearly …).?

Crumbs you were quick off the mark GSM ok you get first go.

Doodle Fri 03-Jun-22 21:57:47

They had heard about the world famous Argy and wanted to know if they might have a table for two tomorrow.
I told them we were fully booked but might be able to squeeze them in somewhere. What do you think? ?

Germanshepherdsmum Fri 03-Jun-22 21:56:51
