Wanted bar staff, pot washers, llama minders, customers in posh frocks.

So ixion who from our motley crew of men have you found to discuss Nietzsche’s polecat. I hope it was in a crate.

Doodle Sun 10-Dec-23 20:06:20

Thanks brook that sounds much better. I’ve always wanted to be on top of a true gent .

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 20:29:16

🤫*LandN*. He was off the cruise ship which wouldn't dock as the Captain didn't think it was seemly.
Such a nice class of gent.
And you don't need a posh house and staaarff to attract the Right Sort of Person 🤪

I’ve been in the kitchen getting the ingredients. ready for the mince pies and Christmas puddings. I’ve added two bottles of brandy and port to each batch of mincemeat do you think that’s enough 🤔.

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 20:39:55

Do you think we need a vegan option, Doodle?
And nut-free, JIC?

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 20:56:50

Can you knock up one like this, Doodle?
We have to watch those fuel bills, y'know. Can't rely on llama 💩 for ever.

Doodle Sun 10-Dec-23 21:09:25

Er yes, ixion don’t see why not. I might have to borrow Billy the Bakers oven though. I’ll send May Hem and Dyna Mite over to soften him up.

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 21:11:35

Soften him up?

Blimey, they'd eat him for breakfast.

brook2704 Sun 10-Dec-23 21:17:11

Best make sure there’s no soggy bottoms

Apologies for being AWOL, or what I call away with our lads.

I have been on the Lifeboat looking for Jude and my plumber.

They were a friendly bunch, I’ve told them we are up for a lock in once the Argy closes tonight 🍻🍹🍸🧉🥃

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 21:56:05

Woohoo, a lock in. 🍺 🍷 🥤 🥂

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 21:56:52

That poor plumber must be drained

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 22:05:27

I rather think his stop cock needs attention.

GrannyGravy13 Sun 10-Dec-23 22:09:43

He has a rather good set of pipes, perhaps we can have an Argy choir 🎶🎶🎶

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 22:11:06

I know I gave him a tap on the shoulder but he tends to run hot and cold

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 22:11:52

Bring on the choir
What are they going to sing GG?

Doodle Sun 10-Dec-23 22:13:42

I don’t know how you do it GG . You always get all the men.
Ooh yes, an Argy choir. I’m up for that. Lalalala la 🎶. I was once on the stage at Covent Garden you know 😊

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 22:20:21

What did you do on stage at Covent Garden Doodle? …Pause for a serious moment…

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 22:26:09

It was the raised bit at the end of the Fruit and Veg market, Laura.
Y'know, the bit where the auctioneer stands?

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 22:43:25

Not a Lot to brag about then

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 22:46:50

Off to check on the sprouts, bubbling away nicely, the added llama spit has added flavour but adding Oreo’s bloomers to the boiling water has made them a peculiar colour.
Hope they start to soften soon. 15 days to go

brook2704 Sun 10-Dec-23 22:55:10

Im good at Karaoke not sure about a choir

Pittcity Mon 11-Dec-23 15:36:45

Angus McCoatup has put on his jammies and told me that my present is under the tree 😳

Doodle Mon 11-Dec-23 16:26:57

ixion I’ll have you know I got a standing ovation for my stint on the auctioneers box. They’d not seen anyone perform such stunts with a chicken, an egg whisk and a frying pan before 😡

Doodle Mon 11-Dec-23 16:29:21

brook if you stand next to the Admiral in the choir, no one will hear you anyway next to his booming voice.
Bags you and I do a Christmas duet together on Karaoke night.
We could use those sparkly outfits we got from Sexy Sadie last year……..I think I can still squeeze into mine. 🤔
