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

It’s quiet here at the steaming sudsy sink. Lots of pots and glasses to wash but I’ve got a book propped up behind the taps so I’m happily reading as I scrub. I can hear the raucous laughter out front! What’s happening? I’m curious but I need to crack on. I can hardly keep up otherwise.

👋 Calli, I do believe you were excused cleaning jobs in the ladies but the gents still need your expertise. A brand new plunger awaits you, I know, I spoil you.

😁 Can't wait to get my hand in there!

Not the only thing he admired as I remember Callistemon 🤣

I think we need a few new sailors, though.
The Admiral spends a lot of time snoring now, drooling in his armchair.

She won't need a new plunger in there.
Rather a pair of welly boots (tee hee). 🤨

LauraNorderr Sun 03-Dec-23 20:42:27

Now where did Pasty disappear to? Hope she hasn’t locked herself in the cellar with Thor.

Callistemon21 Sun 03-Dec-23 20:40:57

Given!!

Too much poteen 😁

The local fire brigade did help us out last year Doodle

8ixion* so pleased you have been given a cleaning job. I have staff to clean after the loo has been used each time. I do realise it is not a way of life to which you are accustomed but it is mine.

There must have been a case of mistaken identity because I would not drape myself over the chaise long there and I would not be drunk because I do not drink beer or spirits. I prefer coffee but I would not touch it there as it was probably used with the llamas' urine.

I was going to send one of my butlers to help but all refused, preferring the fine life here.

Blimey. There's always one, isn't there🤦‍♀️

ixion Sun 03-Dec-23 20:31:57

Hey, why was Calli 'forgiven all the cleaning jobs'?

That's not fair.

Someone heard the word Bath mentioned!

Callistemon21 Sun 03-Dec-23 20:20:07

Can I join please? I was usually forgiven all the cleaning jobs although The Admiral did admire my cleaning techniques 🙂

Doodle Sun 03-Dec-23 20:16:59

The kiddies won’t want to go for rides on them if they smell like that.
Er brook the good hose down you mentioned wouldn’t include the fire brigade would it 👨‍🚒

AGAA4 Sun 03-Dec-23 20:06:49

I'm sure they would ixion but Alarma will have to be the star. She has made us put "Princess" on her stable door. I've given them a spray with Fabreze as they haven't been looking after their personal hygiene.

ixion Sun 03-Dec-23 20:01:20

I wonder whether we might use the llamas in a Christmas tablo nearer the time. Would they like that?

LauraNorderr Sun 03-Dec-23 19:59:42

Charleygirl the way you’ve draped yourself over that chaise longue you’ll soon be less sophisticated and more sophistimated, put your vest back on dear.

AGAA4 Sun 03-Dec-23 19:57:03

Welcome Patsy. I hope you've been warned about the Admiral. He won't be indisposed for long. He has at least ten hands as most of the ladies have found out too late.

LauraNorderr Sun 03-Dec-23 19:53:37

Cor blimey Brook you’re not wrong, those llamas are humming and it’s not Christmas music

AGAA4 Sun 03-Dec-23 19:53:06

I've had them hard at it. If anyone would like Thor and Sven to make them a cocktail they are only too happy to oblige. They will make you a drink too.

LauraNorderr Sun 03-Dec-23 19:51:26

Patsy there’s a man over there, the guy with one tooth, wants to buy you a drink, says his names Juanita.

brook2704 Sun 03-Dec-23 19:50:21

Those llamas are a whiffy lot - I’ll have to give them a good hose down before opening night

Doodle Sun 03-Dec-23 19:48:31

AGA there you are. You’re looking wonderful if I may say so…….er Thor and Sven look a little worse for wear.🤔

Doodle Sun 03-Dec-23 19:47:12

Gosh brook anyone seen AGA the fastest brewer in the west? We will need to get started soon.
Welcome Patsy have a glass of my Christmas grog. A delightful mix of cherry brandy, squashed mince pie and potpourri .
Maybe a glass of mullet wine 🍷 (sorry about the hair clippings)
