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

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

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 22:11:52

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

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

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

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

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

I rather think his stop cock needs attention.

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

That poor plumber must be drained

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

Woohoo, a lock in. 🍺 🍷 🥤 🥂

GrannyGravy13 Sun 10-Dec-23 21:42:32

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 🍻🍹🍸🧉🥃

Best make sure there’s no soggy bottoms

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

Soften him up?

Blimey, they'd eat him for breakfast.

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 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.

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

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

Doodle Sun 10-Dec-23 20:35:21

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 20:29:16

🤫*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 🤪

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 .

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 20:01:45

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

ixion Sun 10-Dec-23 19:55:04

Ah, hence the tsunami at the harbourside. All that kerfuffle.

Me and my bow got proper soaked. So much for a quiet moonlit walk discussing the merits of Nietzsche's philosophical polemics - we had to dash home and strip off.
Am I too late for a 🍺🥃🍹🍻🥂?

brook2704 Sun 10-Dec-23 19:50:42

Im on it Doodle I wouldn’t trust Gnasher again this year but Sir Spits a Lot is nice and clean and well groomed - a comfy ride too, well recommended for your Lady Godiva outing

AGAA4 Sun 10-Dec-23 19:39:25

Jude can really swim fast. Doodle's butterfly stroke is looking a bit moth-eaten and I knew I shouldn't have put all the cash in my bikini top while doing breast stroke. Gnasher has gone off in the wrong direction so *brook is headed for what looks worryingly like a whale. No it's ok it's GG's plumber. He has grown a lot since I last saw him.

Doodle Sun 10-Dec-23 19:29:01

Well that was a waste of time. I’m soaking wet and I didn’t catch up with Jude at all.
Careful Oreo you nearly had my eye out with those tassels.
Good trick though. You’ll have to be in our end of year show.
I will be doing my usual Lady Godiva act on the back of one of the llamas. Just hope the fireworks don’t set Gnasher off like last year we were up Pigstrotter Alley, through Madame Pom Poms, past the fire station and round the harbour before he ran out of breath. I left my wig at harbour Masters office but collected 3 see through bras and 5 pairs of thongs on my way through Madame Pom Poms.

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 19:16:51

Urms thinks wearing Patsy’s dungarees means we don’t know she’s here disguised as Ruby.
That pce612 and her mate GrandmaChrisy have been in the cellar with Thor and Hamish all week, they’ve got staying power that’s for sure.

LauraNorderr Sun 10-Dec-23 19:11:05

Oh Oreo now I know where Roses tassels went. Cor you’ve got them spinning in both directions

Oreo Sun 10-Dec-23 19:09:58

Doodle

Are you alright Oreo? You seem to have one leg in the spittoon and one over your shoulder. Nice frillies by the way. Madam Pom Pom I assume.

Yeah, am very bendy.I found the puce frillies in the cellar so borrowed them to show off my fandango.
