Just opened a small but gleaming new bar in the best part of town, The Alphabet, 1950’s themed bar all polished chrome and plastic, with a juke box and frothy coffee machine.
Drop in when out shopping for a chat and a snifter.?
The bar only has a few house rules, no pj’s to be worn, keep to an alphabetical order and be inventive.Free drinks for the surreal and humorous contributions.?

Matter of fact, the appendages you may happen across in this 'ere bar , have all been well scrutinised and have passed with flying colours. I says so...

Nice one Lemon mines a G & T ........cheers

Doodle Fri 21-Feb-20 14:35:58

Oh well we all know about you and your appendages soop. Nod, nod, wink, wink......fireman’s hose indeed. ?

soop Fri 21-Feb-20 14:46:11

Pass me the smelling salts, Doodle, the very thought of that hose has made come over all unnecessary. wink

lemongrove Fri 21-Feb-20 17:25:50

Queer.....the things that make Soop come over all unnecessary? I mean rubber piping, really?
Plenty of eel quiche left if anyone fancies a slice, put your money in the honesty box, am off on a secret assignation.wink

Doodle Fri 21-Feb-20 22:34:29

Stand in line grannyg I saw him first (well technically soop did but as she’s no here I’ll have a go). I’ll get some tunes going on the juke box. Who’s behind the bar? ????????

Tremeloes on the juke box. Anyone got another 6d?

Doodle Sat 22-Feb-20 10:32:47

Unable to resist dancing to the Tremeloes chewy I loved their music. ??

Vodka cocktails being shaken not stirred. I've mixed you a U'Luvka ...vodka based, mixed with Champagne, raspberries and pomegranate seeds. First come, first served. Better be seated as you sample it.

lemongrove Sat 22-Feb-20 14:36:21

What’s happened in my brief absence? Who made this woeful
Mess?
I just slipped on some pomegranate seeds as well and laddered my fishnet stockings.Has it been busy or is it the regulars helping themselves to the vodka?
Well, whatever! Pour me a large one?

Xanadu on the juke box?

I love reading all these posts - what a sense of humour - unfortunately, I am not witty enough ?

lemongrove Sun 23-Feb-20 15:52:51

Come on crazyH give it a go, just start your post with the required letter of the alphabet.?

Oopsadaisy3 Sun 23-Feb-20 16:48:40

Drop whatever you are doing and come and see who has just arrived, complete with his brand new hose and welly boots, I’m first in the queue, quit shoving me people. I saw him first....

Doodle Sun 23-Feb-20 21:40:29

Eeeh bah gum lemon are you having it off with a fishmonger? Where did all these eel’s and whelks and cockles come from? I thought this was going to be a more classy establishment than the Argy.

Fling yourself into it crazyH. All you have to do is start your post with the next letter of the alphabet and you will be fine.

Goodness knows we’re all too drunk to notice what is written so just go for it,

Hose. Don’t mention hose. soop will have him off you in 10 seconds Oops. You know what she’s like round a man in uniform ?

soop Mon 24-Feb-20 10:49:20

For goodness sake! Oopsadaisy He's certainly a fine specimen. I bags first nibbles at the bar.

soop Mon 24-Feb-20 14:22:47

Gerry and the Pacemakers on the jukebox. I feel like a rock n' roll. Any takers?

Oopsadaisy3 Mon 24-Feb-20 14:26:57

Jiving? Nope, where did the Fireman go then? I just turned around to flutter my eyelash at him and he had disappeared .......wellies, hose all gone. But there was a distinct aroma of Shalimar wafting around. Own up, who has got him? So long as he’s back here shortly it will go no further. Now where is my other eyelash?

Oopsadaisy3 Mon 24-Feb-20 14:29:09

Kinks are now on the Juke box, more my era.

Let me in there cos I’m gonna do the Shake, oh found my eyelash stuck to my chin, maybe that’s why the fireman left so quickly.......

crazyH Mon 24-Feb-20 16:17:32

Learning to dance from the experts ...there you go, I have indeed flung my self in and enjoying it ?- did I do that right
