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.?

Tightened purse strings from a few. My round so what's your tipple?

Smirnoff vodka for me please with a little ice and lemon and a large bag of pork scratching sifters you have any. I know how to live it up ?

Doodle Thu 16-Jan-20 20:40:06

Really strange smell coming from the kitchen lemon. Did you forget to take the quiche out of the oven or is chewy in there cleaning her work boots.

lemongrove Thu 16-Jan-20 09:19:43

Quiche on special too....only half a crown with some salad thrown in ( literally)

lemongrove Thu 16-Jan-20 09:17:53

Pernod only 1/6d today, special offer! ?

lemongrove Thu 16-Jan-20 09:16:39

Oi, do your jiving about over in the corner out of the way, I have customers to think of!
Orbison on the jukebox again ......is that you Tangerine?

Doodle Wed 15-Jan-20 15:04:58

Nice bag chewy. Useful size I would think..........do you use it at work by any chance?

Chewbacca Tue 14-Jan-20 23:03:16

Make mine a pint of pink champagne please. I'll put my work handbag here Doodle, keep your eye on it whilst I nip to the loo.......

lemongrove if you are trying to bribe us I think we deserve a bit more than juice. Mind you that jumbo burger looks quite tasty. I might just have a little bop around to Kathy Kirby first. Come on chewy put your handbag on the floor with mine and we’ll dance around them.

Kathy Kirby on the juke box

lemongrove Tue 14-Jan-20 21:11:45

Just forget all you know about my murky past......this is a new start in a clean shiny bar!
Jumbo burgers and juice on the house for you both! ?

Chewbacca Tue 14-Jan-20 21:07:17

I agree Doodle. Mrs Furcoatandnoknickers was very glad of our expertise in the last pub dive. And this bar could definitely do with some "artistic license.

Doodle Tue 14-Jan-20 20:42:07

Hang on a minute lemon. Just because you’ve gone up market since leaving the Argy don’t think you can come over all hoity toity with me and chewy. Don’t forget we knew you when you were a tarty piece ?. Me and chewy are the ones adding a bit of class to the bar. ?

lemongrove Tue 14-Jan-20 14:22:15

Good grief! You’re not even workers, let alone miracle ones, look at you, lolling about the bar, half dressed at after 2pm!
Gggggrrrrrr.

Chewbacca Mon 13-Jan-20 23:10:01

For goodness sake Doodle, we're not miracle workers!

Doodle Mon 13-Jan-20 23:03:12

Even you could do with a bit of a spruce up lemon. I’m sure chewy and I could give you a bit of a discount ?. Thanks for the Y chewy

Chewbacca Mon 13-Jan-20 22:37:00

Don't make me laugh lemon! grin "Class joint"? gringringrin

Bathsheba Mon 13-Jan-20 21:55:02

Cheers! Can I join in? Love a drop of bubbly!

lemongrove Mon 13-Jan-20 21:46:16

Bubbly ??

lemongrove Mon 13-Jan-20 21:44:44

Absolutely I mean it Chewy.....this is a class joint doncha know.

lemongrove Mon 13-Jan-20 21:43:30

Zulu ( film) on, let’s watch it whilst doing our zumba?

Chewbacca Mon 13-Jan-20 21:28:27

You don't mean that lemon! Doodle and I are just adding some much needed class and culture to the bar. We've got tons of culture; it's just waiting to be spread nice and thick on the walls.

Took another Y for you Doodle

lemongrove Mon 13-Jan-20 20:49:19

Xtra black coffee for Doodle and Chewbacca ( sobering up needed)

lemongrove Mon 13-Jan-20 20:47:40

What have we here then?!You two will be out on your considerable arses if this malarkey carries on.
Shape up or ship out! ?

Doodle Mon 13-Jan-20 20:40:54
