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.?

Very difficult to judge chewy but let’s say we cater for 5 a day. It’s only a small room out back and I’ve got an old bathtub (pinched from the Argy) that will fit in there nicely.
Couple of tons should get us started. Do you think lemon would be our first customer? Just as a trial run. Actually she could do with a bit of a tarting up. ?

U R right Doodle, I shall trust your highly respected business acumen completely. I know you've never been known to fail at any business enterprise yet. How much sh*t will we need? hmm

Doodle Sun 12-Jan-20 19:56:52

Trust me chewy we’re on a winner with this. No one will realise it’s not a real mud bath if we put pegs on their noses.?

Chewbacca Sun 12-Jan-20 19:51:38

Surely you've spelt that wrong Doodle? Spit and Polish? Remember my line of work! grin

Doodle Sun 12-Jan-20 19:45:12

Really chewy I’m sure it was yours. Oh well never mind. Make that the same for me please barman. What about back to my original plan for a Salon in the back room. Ah I have it mud baths (your area) and manicure (mine) Chewy and Doodle spit and polish ?

Chewbacca Sun 12-Jan-20 18:44:32

Quite right Doodle, good idea. Mines a double drambuie on the rocks with a whisky chaser. Your round I think. ?

Doodle Sun 12-Jan-20 18:39:44

Poo! I was looking forward to a bit of artistic dawbing. Oh well chewy we’d better have a drink and ponder out next enterprise. ?

Chewbacca Sun 12-Jan-20 18:09:07

Oh you're such a prude and a spoil sport lemon. We could have been the geriatric version of Banksy you know! Our murals sh*t drawings could have been worth millions.

NO scribblings or doodling or smearing on my walls please!?

lemongrove Sun 12-Jan-20 17:18:12

Magic Moments on the juke box, very soothing.

Leaving it all to you two, Chewy and Doodle. Alas, life has got in the way and I cannot dedicate the time needed for this artistic enterprise. Keep the bar buzzing without me and I'll be back for a stiff gin frothy coffee when time permits.

Doodle Sun 12-Jan-20 02:48:29

Keep those ideas coming chewy but let’s not forget my artistic design and scribbles graffiti will be a major part our names should go first.

Chewbacca Sat 11-Jan-20 23:23:50

oroving? Providing. duh!

Chewbacca Sat 11-Jan-20 23:22:43

Just a moment.... this Scribbles and Doodle thingy....... if im oroving all the raw materials, i think it should be Chewy's Artistic Emporium with a bit of help from Scribbles and *Doodle*

gmarie Sat 11-Jan-20 23:18:06

Ick. Perish the thought.

Doodle Sat 11-Jan-20 23:13:24

Hope you are not putting it on your toast scribbles ?

Doodle Sat 11-Jan-20 23:12:18

Graffiti art by Scribbles & Doodle using authentic materials.
S**t, we could make a fortune. Want to join the partnership chewy ?

Chewbacca Sat 11-Jan-20 23:11:38

Goodness me no Scribbles, its definitely not Marmite. <wanders off giggling>

Scribbles Sat 11-Jan-20 22:32:09

Flippin' 'eck, Chewy! It'll look like we smeared Marmite up the walls.

Chewbacca Sat 11-Jan-20 21:45:47

Especially if I was to bring some natural materials from work? It would be very authentic wouldn't it?

Scribbles Sat 11-Jan-20 21:26:16

Definitely a work of art, Doodle! Maybe we could start with a mural on one of the walls? You draw the pics and I'll compose some inflammatory inspiring graffiti to go with them.

Doodle Sat 11-Jan-20 21:23:35

Dare I say Scribbles and Doodle sounds better

Doodle Sat 11-Jan-20 21:22:47

Crept in there while I wasn’t looking scribbles. Have you ever thought we would make a good team. Scibbles and Doodle ?

Doodle Sat 11-Jan-20 21:21:08

Beauty salon being opened in the back room. Pampering while you booze. Who’s up for a manicure and a ??

Thanks chewy ?

Scribbles Sat 11-Jan-20 21:20:14

Broom is over there if someone could pass it over, please? Time to sweep out the fag ends, broken glass and bits of old sausage, not to mention any customers asleep under the tables.
