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.?

Universally acceptable woodmouse ?. I would love to join you for a drink. I’ll have a schooner of sherry please. Now all I need to do is hoist myself up on this bar stool so I can reach it ?

Very elegant look Doodle( draped across the bar stool like a fur stole ) one schooner of sherry coming up, and knowing you it will soon be going down ( fastest drinker in the bar!)

Wayne Fontana and The Mind Benders on the jukebox ?

X rated thoughts! I love Wayne Fontana and the Mind Benders. Oooh I’ve come over all unnecessary ?

I’m off to bed now before the dreaded Y appears. Where’s chewy when you need her?

Xray of my arm. Broke it when Doodle knocked me of my stool when trying to get onto hers.

WOODMOUSE49 Fri 17-Jan-20 23:40:08

Yawn from Doodle. Drunk or tired?

ZZZZ ??? - Tired

Anybody about? I've been over to that new bar across the road, The Alderney Admiral. Very nice too. They have a karaoke on Friday nights. Can we have that too? I can sing The Power of Love for you?

Brawling in the bar. Really woodmouse as if I’m that desperate for a drink (I told you to get out of my way ?)
Here, I’ll get you a pint as a way of saying sorry. Perhaps we can join chewy later for a singalong.

Could we have a karaoke machine lemon pleeease. It would liven things up a bit. (I realise it should be May we but I’m on C so there ?)

Dracula says ‘I’m undead, I’m not unreasonable’ ?well, I’m not unreasonable either, so yes, I shall ring up and arrange for the karaoke machine to be delivered ( had been thinking of it anyway.)

Egg salad is dish of the day ? ????

lemongrove Sat 18-Jan-20 15:17:15

Freddie And The Dreamers on the jukebox.......who wears short shorts?

Chewbacca Sat 18-Jan-20 17:43:54

Great! Sing along tonight. Doodle is up first with Frank Ifield's "The Yodelling Song". Can't wait!

Doodle Sat 18-Jan-20 21:47:44

How was is chewy. I did my my best. Sorry lemon did a lot of the glasses break blush

Doodle Sat 18-Jan-20 21:53:11

I’m really looking forward to seeing chewy doing Great Balls of Fire. I gather it’s going to be really hot stuff ☄️☄️

Doodle Sat 18-Jan-20 21:57:03

Just asking lemon, where did you get the eggs for the egg salad? Mine wasn’t cooked and jumped off the plate and ran away ?? ?

lemongrove Sat 18-Jan-20 22:42:25

Kiss Me Honey Honey Kiss Me .........that’s my choice for karaoke, and watch me wiggle as I sing, in my gold glittery sheath dress.

lemongrove Sat 18-Jan-20 22:45:49

Lovely Doodle your rendition brought a tear to my eye (and the headache lingers on.)
You’re a game old bird for even trying.

Doodle Sat 18-Jan-20 23:06:44

Mercy lemon what are you doing. That’s not a sheath dress, it’s a lurex condom. ?

lemongrove Sat 18-Jan-20 23:13:23

Not likely Doodle ....they don’t make ‘em in my size.wink
Nope, I bought this dress from ‘Mature FiguresRUs’ from
Madam Pompom down by the gasworks.

lemongrove Sat 18-Jan-20 23:14:45

Otis Reading on the jukebox ?

WOODMOUSE49 Sun 19-Jan-20 01:14:05

Prince - Purple Rain - Please

Queue here if you ladies would like a gentleman dance partner.
On offer for tonight I have the Admiral - there’s life in the old sea dog yet (but not a lot ?‍?)
The Captain - bit nifty on his feet as long as he hasn’t had too much ?!
George - Nespresso man supreme- no fighting ladies.

Ruby Murray on the juke box

Sorry Doodle I am already dancing with Petyr, our Trans
Barman (Trans means Transylvanian btw.....he has lovely teeth.)He settled in Poland, but had to leave there in a hurry he said.
