The Alphabet Bar ( all welcome!)

soop? Ha! My fireman only has eyes for me now! mainly because they're pointing in opposite directions

Tough! I have Terence the tiger keeper tucked tightly somewhere safe. He's mine all mine!

Under no circumstances is Terry (as I call him) yours soop. I have known him since he looked after cubs. Give him back at once ?

Very possibly chewy but with eyes pointing in different directions, he can’t see you.......which is probably why he’s still with you ?

Well! You've shown your true colours haven't you Doodle! How very dare you! I'll have you know that he thinks I'm a goddess! which of course is 100% correct

Xcuse me chewy but if you go back a page you will see that lemon is the green goddess. I’m not sure it can apply to you too. After all, with his eyes going on different directions how can you be sure who or what he is looking at when he says that ?

You can count on me Doodle to urge lemon to get her act together and get the lease of The Dog and Whistle sorted. All this good living is playing havoc with my costume design entrepeuneriaaaaalship market stall. No-one wants Sparkly, sequinned itchy Zebra striped basques, other than you and lemon, obviously.

Still working on Chewy's costume. Hard to find those expendable suspender belts. She's such a bloomin diva

Zebra striped Basques, zebra striped basques, roll up roll up for your zebra striped basques. Can a girl get a drink around yer or not? If ye' can't get one yer then can you "show me the way to the next whisky bar, oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why, show me, show me, show me the way" .

Ahem! I think you'll find that I am a very small size 16 Carillion; I'm just big boned. I'm only a diva because I have such rare talent! so rare that no one has identified it yet

Bartenderrrrrrr! Surely I can't be 'spected to get my own drink. What sort of bar is this anyway. Service! Service! Pphaa. Hey you bartender, if you dont serve drinks what do you serve? Serve me, service me!

CherryCezzy! Really! You can't go round demanding that the barman services you! There's a queue you know!

Didn't see any of you there so phoo I'll demand all I like! Surely he's serviced you plenty of times! Or perhaps he hasn't, wonder why, ha ha ha? It seems he can't take his eyes off moi.

Everyone, come here. carillion has finished chewys costume. All we’ve got to do now is get her in it. cherry stop banging on the bar, you can have a drink in a minute. Now chewy’s got her leg in the stocking, all we have to do it connect it to the suspenders. You hang on to her foot cherry and me and carillion will try and pull the suspender down so we can do it up. Come on carillion heave, heave ...crumbs this elastic is really strong ...now heave ..twang ?☄️ ..*chewy*, chewy where are you..?

Flung through the air like a gigantic Christmas pudding. I saw her bounce up and down a few times but then she rolled and rolled, haven't got a clue where. Is it worth trying to find her or not? Cum on let's 'av a couple of shots first, that was hard work!

Good idea cherry. If we’re going to look for her we will need a plan. We’d better sit and have a few drinks while we think what to do. Do you think she’s come back down yet ?

Haven’t you heard? Chewy has run off with the brewery delivery driver! He found her staggering down the road apparently and found her so bewitching he shovelled her into the passenger seat and they went off to Wolverhampton.
I should let the sewage works know that she won’t be in today,
And it also means our profits will be down, she’s the best customer we had ( although Cherry looks promising, the amount she is sinking.)

I can't work out how I've ended up in Wolverhampton? I vividly remember being forced into an elasficated contraption, that was 20 sizes too small, and the next thing......... pinnnngggg...... off I flew. I landed, in a heap, on Wolverhampton town hall steps! I think I have amnesia? Where am I? Who am I?

Blimey Chewy, don't worry about waking up in Wolverhampton, your last post was number 666!! Yikes
I'll start work on a new, more suitable cossie for you ???

What 'ya think Chewy? I could add a few strategically placed feather boa plumes if I can prize them away from lemongrove

Xtra beastly experience for you Chewy though I expect it was the brewery driver that had the most horrifyingly time! lemongrove I have ya knaw I am a modest drinker, I politely demand to have more booze . How many plumes do ya think it'll take Carillion? I reckon we need a heap if they are stategically placed don't yew? D'ya think we can persuade or bribe *lemongrove or d'ya think we'd better take her hostage instead?

Yes Carillion that is exactly what I had in mind! And you've found a recent photo of me too! So kind of you! Can you run up a couple of those? One in red and one in black, I think.

Just a doggone minute! You have leaped to Y already!!!
That’s what happens when you have too much ouzo at breakfast you lot.

Kind of that delivery guy to return you here Chewy ?

Lemon how kind interfering of you to put me back on the right path; I think the turmoil of me being propelled all the way to Wolverhampton has done me noggin in.

Must say I’m pleased to see you back chewy. I’m off to get some material for carillion to make that costume for you. She thinks 20 bolts should be enough. lemon won’t give up her feathers but not to worry, I’ve got a couple of turkeys in the yard and I’m sure they won’t mind a bit of a pluck. ?

No Doodle! Don't go plucking feathers; get a feather plucker's son to do it!
