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

Despite the liberty bodice and white high heels Dan Gerous and Hugh Dunnit are circling GG giving her
the look. Oh no May and Kay are looking jealous.

Doodle Tue 05-Dec-23 20:02:52

My moneys on GG 🤣😄

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 20:08:50

That liberty-bodice is a real eye-catcher though, isn’t it?

GrannyGravy13 Tue 05-Dec-23 20:17:04

If anyone takes liberties with my liberty bodice I shall ring my friend George (Clooney on speed dial)

Mind you if they are young & fit I will give them a minute or ten before I decide 🤔

ixion Tue 05-Dec-23 20:36:35

Hope you don't mind, Maddy but I pinched some of your sprouts water as it's stewing nicely.

We need a Christmas money spinner sideline.
I thought the more, er, creative amongst us might venture into the world of exclusive beauty products. We could do a Pop Up.
This is my first creation, I call it Brassicalissima. Any passing resemblance to a Det*ol bottle is purely accidental.

If we need a chaps' version, just lob in a tablespoon of Ly*x aftershave.

What do you think?🤞

Doodle Tue 05-Dec-23 20:42:42

Brilliant ixion a sure winner. It smells *#?🤢 divine

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 20:47:50

That’s a very good sideline ixion. I take it the Moulting and Brown products in the ladies is one of your concoctions. You really should strain the hair out first though.

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 20:49:53

We could try the unisex handwash by Braless and Hardon

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 20:57:37

Oh…… I thought that Moulting and Brown stuff was ok to wash my scissors in after I trimmed the Admiral’s hair while he was out cold in the snug. I was bored waiting for the matelots.

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 21:53:25

So that’s how the Admiral’s toupee ended up in the sprouts, must have slipped off his head while you were cutting it

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 21:54:32

Have your scissors corroded Delila? It’s strong stuff, especially the brown part.

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 21:56:03

I see Charleygirl has purchased a large bottle of Brassicalissimo. Can’t wait for her to sprinkle that around her boudoir

Doodle Tue 05-Dec-23 22:05:00

Laura where are all these barmen I’m suppose to be testing out interviewing? You can’t expect me to run the bar single handed (specially if it’s my drinking hand) By the way, those new leather bar stools are dangerous, I fell off one the other night and I’d only had 20 pints of poteen. 😡

ixion Tue 05-Dec-23 22:11:48

Bagsy I have the trimmings from your Mrs Teasy Weasy session, Delilah, please.
I intend to work on an exfoliating body scrub, BrassicalissiScrub.

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 22:24:45

25 pints of poteen and I guarantee you won’t hurt yourself Doodle
The young and nubile very fit potential barmen have been waiting in the owners orifice on the top floor, entertained by AGA doing what she calls karaoke. We have lost four who threw themselves out of the window, just as well the llamas were in the yard.

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 22:26:24

The scissors were ruined anyway, his toupee was like wire. I think it’s a homemade job. No idea how it ended up in the sprouts.
I dread to think what the Brassicalissimo will do to Charleygirl’s gowns though!

Charleygirl5 Tue 05-Dec-23 22:31:38

LauraNorderr I cannot believe anybody would wear one of my Chanel dresses with red tights- how common as my mother would have said. I will deny all knowledge of ever owning any of these dresses.

I have several pairs of Dolce and Gabbana shoes size 6 if anybody is interested. You all know my address, please come to the servant's entrance.

Each pair has only been worn once and since having my broken ankle pinned and plated sadly I can no longer wear such attractive high heels.

Fortnum and Mason thankfully knows how to cater for my class.

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 22:33:32

Yes ixion, of course you’re welcome to the trimmings - they’d be excellent for exfoliating. Waste not want not, eh? And always willing to help a friend. I won’t charge, even though my trimmings are always in great demand.

I hope AGA isn’t overworking those young and nubile barmen!

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 22:35:11

Volunteers for the bar please while Doodle tests the bar men.
Meanwhile keep an eye on the sprouts Maddy, 20 days to go. Please don’t leave your teeth in them tonight.
Ixion the culture lot have set off for Covent Garden while the uncouth matelots are running amok in the convent garden. Mother Superior is having a fit, two nuns have had a stroke, a third one tried but couldn’t reach.

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 22:37:03

Size 6 is a bit on the large side, but thanks anyway Charleygirl. I’m lucky to have dainty little dancer’s feet. I really came here for the dance but I’m not confident now that it’s going to happen.

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 22:37:54

Oh no! Bless us all!!

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 22:39:12

I’ve seen those shoes Charley, I think the D&G stands for Dirty and Grubby, the cobblers from Fleet of Foot Street.

Delila Tue 05-Dec-23 22:39:28

I’ll help out in the bar Laura, it’ll take my mind off things.

Charleygirl5 Tue 05-Dec-23 22:40:11

I am unsure if the sprouts will be cooked sufficiently for eating on Christmas Day. Would you like me to send one of my chefs around to give some advice? Nothing worse than undercooked sprouts.

LauraNorderr Tue 05-Dec-23 22:41:33

Get your costume on Delila, the bouncy floor has been polished and the Admiral is ready for an Argentine Tango, don’t be too careful where your feet end up.
