The Alphabet Bar ( all welcome!)

I go away for a few days and the place goes to rack and ruin. Fantastic ?
Just pour me a pint of special please Big Jim. By the way why are you called Big Jim, Big Jim...........oh I see
Kindly turn up the volume on the juke box lemon i can’t feel the floor shaking yet.
Lovely ? this place is getting more like the Argy every day.

Just a few days Doodle? It feels like you've been away for ever; you've been missed. Have a drink on me. Oh, hang on.... I seem to have left me purse at home..... next time then.

Keep coming up with that old ‘left my purse at home’ trick all the time chewy. Sigh, I suppose I’d better get them in then.
Pour out some big ones Big Jim while we watch the entertainment ??‍?. Is that the one with the big hose chewy?

Laughing at your antics, Chewy, you don't even own a purse!

You always relied on the petty cash in the Argy and I took the rap for it!?

Marydoll! How very dare you! It was not me what emptied the tips jar of 37.5p to go swanning off to Italy on a jamboree with some sailor!

No Doodle, the one with the big hose belongs to soop. For pity's sake don't go and inveigle your way in over there; soop can get a little bit protective of him. (I think they're an item)

Pardon, Chewy! It was Big Jim, I went to Italy with and KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF, or I will spike your drinks again!

Quelle surprise! Who knew that Marydoll runs off with Big Jim at the drop of a hat or other items of clothing!

Robust Roderick the reliable rascal has joined the team...

Soop staggers silently in; slowly slurping sloe shots. Slips slowly to the floor.

Tries to get back on to her feet. Fails (miserably) yells for assistance and a Tequila to calm her nerves...

Under the table, yet again, Soop tries to hide the empties under her woollie,

Hic! Help she called feebly.

Vehicle reversing, vehicle reversing! ? . ??‍? Stand aside please. Where is the lady who needs assistance from the fire brigade? Under the table you say.....ok madam we’ll soon have you back on your feet. ??‍? There you go all safe and sound. You can let go of my neck now madam. I said you can let go madman....

Well, this is more like it. Service with a smile and a fireman's lift whether I need it, or not.

X rated posting ?. Excuse me soop but that sort of language is more in line in the Argy. Fireman’s lift indeed. I’ve heard it called many things but never that before

You should all be ashamed of yourselves, leading that poor, innocent Soop, astray! I thought she was a reformed character.
When I met her in Edinburgh, I realised that she was a genteel lady, that is until she hijacked Santa at the BOS Christmas party. Unable to keep up the front, (and she had plenty) She showed her true colours that day!
That poor fireman will never work again, post traumatic stress and a damaged back, I heard . You hussy!

Zzzzzzzz

Am I boring you, Chewy, or are you lying comotose after consuming the litres of vodka we bought in to sanitise our hands. ? ?
Well that's what the advised on that Gransnet thingy.

Be off with you brazen hussies! I believe the fireman belongs to moi......in fact he has promised me a slide down his pole, so we are off to the fire station now......whaaaaat? You all want to come? Oh alright then, we can take it in turns.

Cliff Richard on the juke box

Dave King on the jukebox......and fresh donuts on the go with filter coffee if anyone fancies a cup?

Electric Light Orchestra on next. Pass the coffee Lemon; I like mine dark and strong please. No donuts; I'm fat enough as it is .

Fair enough, Chewbacca, I shall scoff the donuts. Always happy to help out in crisis. That *Marydoll has much to answer for. She led me astray. That Santa, --if when he's fully recovered, will back me up.

Gerry and the Pacemakers on the jukebox. I shall away to backcomb my beehive. Shouldn't be too long.

Helen Shapiro now singing her heart out. Always thought it was a man until I saw her singing her heart out.
