A warm (phew what a scorcher) welcome to one and all in the all new Argy. Topless waiters a speciality. Cocktails served in pint mugs. Nibbles available…….

Hello Happyme ( waves furiously ).
Haven't seen you for ages - I think our exploits with the chara in Sarfend have gone down in the annals of Argy history.
Will look out for you propped up the bar as ever x

I can't get my potential ice lollies to set and have had to just drink the slush rather than waste it. Can no longer taste anything.

My Cosmopolitan jellies have turned out a bit better but need a bit more work. They don't really go along with big fat bangers though, need some slightly more refined nibbles for those. Any ideas?

Baggytrazzas Tue 16-Aug-22 09:49:16

Autocorrect error should be poteen !

ixion Tue 16-Aug-22 10:06:07

Baggy - have you thought of using the fat bangers as decoration for the jelly?
Like this?
Or is a bit, well, common??

Baggytrazzas Tue 16-Aug-22 10:18:28

Yes, I think it is well common. Sniff.

Happyme Tue 16-Aug-22 14:37:49

Hi ixion ? ?. I was propped up by the bar but somehow I am now under it.??? Those poteen Popsicles are well pungent potent!! Aahh sarfend, wonder where my David, Earl of Essex from the waltzer is now? ? be quiet my beating heart sigh

Happyme Tue 16-Aug-22 14:42:56

Baggy how about eels, they go well with jelly I hear ?

Germanshepherdsmum Tue 16-Aug-22 14:48:35

Hello Happyme! We didn’t get to meet at the Argy as I was banged up for a client account ‘problem’ and you were having fun with a beefeater at the Tower.
Please don’t mention jellied eels.?

AGAA4 Tue 16-Aug-22 15:22:21

Hello Happy me. Can someone help me please? Sven our hunky waiter has fallen into the barrel of poteen and I can't pull him out. May have to just get in there with him ?

Happyme Tue 16-Aug-22 16:53:45

Hi gsm and AGA ?.
Sven in the poteen barrel...that could explain the cheesy tang...suspected it might be the Admirals socks.
The Queen granted us Tower inmates an amnesty for the jubilee gsm, was sorry to leave actually...miss Sir Loin and the Beefeaters...they were so tasty and ermm ....how can I put it?....well hung!!

ixion Tue 16-Aug-22 17:04:47

Ooh, food?
Now you're talking!
I'm in the queue.

Please dont sully my delicate Cosmopolitan jelly by mentioning eels alongside it. Should be firmly set in a couple of hours so I will test it then and come back to you.

Germanshepherdsmum Tue 16-Aug-22 17:13:14

Right behind you!

Baggytrazzas Tue 16-Aug-22 17:25:38

Ooh I get a bit nervous if desperate people are right behind me in a rowdy bar, would you like to go ahead of me I'm in no rush right now, been sampling my unset Cosmopolitan jellies. Yummy but still on the "too soft yet" side.

Germanshepherdsmum Tue 16-Aug-22 19:56:13

Never mind ‘on the soft side’. I’m sure we smutties can firm things up.?

Pittcity Tue 16-Aug-22 22:30:51

Own up. Who was peeking???

Happyme Tue 16-Aug-22 23:47:26

Oh err, forgot how peachy Anton is ?...well it has been a long time. Bottoms up ?

Pittcity Wed 17-Aug-22 07:31:57

At least he kept his face mask on #safetyfirst

Baggytrazzas Wed 17-Aug-22 11:24:34

he is probably wearing his thong on his face.

Germanshepherdsmum Wed 17-Aug-22 11:26:09

Or is it a posing pouch? ?

Baggytrazzas Wed 17-Aug-22 11:27:43

the lady is crying out for the smelling salts.....he has brought the wrong brand of champers, she only drinks Bolly.

She will be opening up a rant/thread on GN if she hasn't already.

Germanshepherdsmum Wed 17-Aug-22 11:30:38

I can see it now - which brands of champers are acceptable in polite company?

AGAA4 Wed 17-Aug-22 12:04:45

At the Argy we pinch empty bolly bottles from the posh restaurants and fill them with cheap lemonade. After a few glasses of poteen nobody notices.

ixion Wed 17-Aug-22 13:10:37

Aha AGA?‍♀️

“One doesn’t look at the mantelpiece when poking the ? “ is a phrase Doodle and I remember from our Skool days Pittcity ....?
