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.?

Olga, the shot putter, says otherwise, Doodle hmm

Perhaps you should retire to a quiet part of the bar to talk matters through amicably. She's a big, beefy, bossy, bosomy bird.

Doodle Thu 30-Apr-20 19:53:19

Quite soop. Now that I think about it I do feel Korky would be better off with Olga. Phew she’s a size ?

soop Fri 01-May-20 12:01:26

Rarely have I seen muscles where she has them...made my eyes water.

sausage roll anyone? I bought a job lot from a passing Greggs salesman [only slightly past their sell by date....like a lot of us.]

Tempting lemon but no thanks I'm in training for the jive-a- thon g. Will you let me borrow your backless-frontless, skinny sweater, the fluorescent pink one you were wearing last time the bar was raided?? Pleeeeeease

soop Sat 02-May-20 12:01:55

Unbelievable, Carillion...I thought that you had sophisticated taste.

Carillion01 Sat 02-May-20 12:35:41

Very true soop, dead right about me being a sophisto, why, just this lunchtime, I ate my Greggs pie with decorum 'cos i didn't have a knife and fork... ?

soop Sat 02-May-20 16:58:43

Wot!!!! No starched linen napkin? Carillion tut, sigh,wink

Doodle Sat 02-May-20 23:56:25

You hussy carillion. I was going to borrow lemon’s backless-frontless top. Now I’ll have to find something else to go with my jive skirt. soop you’re a fashionable lady, what will you be wearing?

soop Sun 03-May-20 13:50:10

Zebra stripes for me. Head to toe. No cleavage. I'm a laydee, don't you know.

soop Sun 03-May-20 13:51:04

?????!!!! oops

lemongrove Sun 03-May-20 16:54:30

Xtra sexy tops are waiting in a neatly ironed pile on the bar, for those who need them.?

lemongrove Sun 03-May-20 16:55:24

Am pouring double gins as it’s happy hour, where are you all?

soop Sun 03-May-20 17:25:22

Bountiful, beautiful, bar person, Lemon. Let's not mess around. Make mine a treble and I shall sort through my cupboard for some in-date crisps.

lemongrove Sun 03-May-20 19:03:46

Coming up! ???Enjoy !

Doodle Sun 03-May-20 21:42:24

Double double for me please lemon. Er is Korky around? I thought if his girlfriend Olga was away he might be free to help me with some chores.....at home ?

soop Mon 04-May-20 12:00:56

Ever the foolhardy optimist, Doodle. Olga has Korky micro-chipped. Beware!

lemongrove Mon 04-May-20 12:55:42

Food anyone? I have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen,
Fried whelk and tomato quiche
Fandango pies ( don’t ask!)
Fetta on fried bread
Fried egg n chips
Yummy eh?

soop Mon 04-May-20 14:43:33

Greasy chips go well with Gin.

Doodle Mon 04-May-20 20:17:01

Hmm Fandango pies is that like the Queen of puddings lemon with a bit of lightening mousse on the side. Sounds good to me I’ll have that.

soop Tue 05-May-20 12:18:47

Inkspots on the jukebox. Shall we all sway along to their dulcet melodies? Doodle please pass me a fat wedge of that Fandango. I'm feeling peckish.

Doodle Wed 06-May-20 22:35:39

Just a minute soop while I scrape it up off the floor. The plate fell off while I was dancing on the bar. Here you go, just a few hairs......and bits in it ?

soop Thu 07-May-20 12:09:12

Kinda interesting. A bit like my late Nana's "seed cake". I swear she used some of the budgie food. All sort of gritty. We could flog it over the bar...donations to the RSPB.

CherryCezzy Thu 07-May-20 13:16:50

Lordy, I've been away with Freddie (the freebie guy) for a couple a weeks and you've all turned this bar into a diner! I'll have a double Brandy to get over the ?
