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

Are we allowed to tout for business? Come in GSM bit of pro bono work required. Not pro bony ones myself, I like em with a bit of meat on

Calling Sago, well travelled and beautifully groomed might add a touch of class. Serendipity always a good laugh. Room for a cultured one with a little greyhound. Welcome one and all.

You do realise you are coming across as slightly, er, man mad, to put it politely?

Hospitality has suffered a lot since the pandemic. We need to be welcoming, warm, standing out from the rest of the hoi poloi along the stretch to the harbour.
You'll never get any new punters in at this rate. Let's Reach out to a new clientele.

Has your boat come in ixion?

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 21:39:58

No Doodle but you can have his scouse cousin Alorra Presha, his numbers on the back of the privy door

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 21:37:21

Laura er……have you got his phone number?

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 21:31:26

I missed last year’s shenanigans Brook, I was under Alotta Presha, gorgeous Turkish bloke. Hope you can control Alarma, feisty little madam.

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 21:26:47

Any barman who can survive being tested by you Doodle is hired.
Four at a time GG impressive

She won’t be with us for much longer if there’s a repeat of last years shinanagins at the Christmas party - she’s been warned

GrannyGravy13 Sat 02-Dec-23 21:17:06

Have been known for testing a barman or four 🍷🥃🍹🍺🍸

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 21:13:38

Laura you seriously think Alarma would stand for that sort of nonsense. No she’s still with us (unfortunately 😩)

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 21:12:04

Well Laura, as I’m a long standing (until I’ve had a few) member, I do think I should be on the Barman recruitment team.

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 21:10:18

Best you don’t remember GrannyGravy. Took me a long time to untangle him from the harness.!

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 21:01:40

Hands up (iyswim) who wants to test the new barmen

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 21:00:05

Is Alarma still going, I thought I saw Lemon wearing Alarma, she said she’d got it from Florence and Fred whoever they are

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 20:57:29

Sexy Suzie/Sadie, is that the one next to HookerHetty, she caters in sparkly low cut rugby shirts

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 20:54:44

Ooh ladies, and I use the term loosely, it is good to see you.
Sorry to have kept you waiting ixion, we were busy interviewing some hunky barmen.
I think you tossed George back in to the ring GG and went I search of a younger model.

GrannyGravy13 Sat 02-Dec-23 20:46:31

I’m in, still trying to remember what happened in the cellar with George Clooney

brook2704 Sat 02-Dec-23 20:44:26

Blimey a cruise ship, we’ll have to keep MayHem away from the Admiral then - its been a long time ….

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 20:43:33

Urms not sure we’re providing those sort of services under the new management. 😮

Doodle Sat 02-Dec-23 20:42:01

brook if you’re fetching the llamas, look out for you know who. I’ve heard Alarma is as feisty as ever and just as demanding. Don’t know who she thinks she is, only sent the Manor’s butler over to tell me she wants a Fortnum & Mason hamper for Christmas or else!

ixion Sat 02-Dec-23 20:36:53

Oooh, I've been camping it up on the doorstep for yonks waiting for you to reopen. Is Sexy Suzie/Sadie still open down the alley for nice clothes?
Must dash to see when the next boat's due in.
Rumour has it there's a Cruise ship due in. Some Culture job or the other🙄.

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 20:19:52

He does wear a toupee these days, dandruff circa 1964 when spitoons were last cleaned

Urmstongran Sat 02-Dec-23 20:17:08

Eurgh! Dandruff from t’ Admiral? Gawd. I thought he wore a toupee. Must give him a tug next time I see him....

LauraNorderr Sat 02-Dec-23 20:15:31

Welcome aboard Brook, good luck herding those frisky llamas back down the alley, and for goodness sake put a cardy on, too cold for crop tops and hot pants
