Pete's old place has been empty for a while now but a few of us 'regulars' slipped down the lane one night, prised away a few planks holding the door on, and are now squatting in the public bar.
The tea-lights add an interesting 'dimension' to the bar (plus magically erase wrinkles
).
It needs cleaning up a bit - so laydees come along, bring rags/buckets/mops - and whatever else you can lay your mitts on to swab the decks down. I've brought a box of Country Manor perry - so bring your own tin mugs and we'll get started. The planned Grand Opening Night is tomorrow…so someone will need to nip down to the shop and get in a few bottles. Glam are you okay with rustling up some sausages rolls? you could put a bit of that green stuff (parsley?) on them to make them look posh…..
Where's the Honesty Box gone
Well, papaoscar did mention something about raiding it...how very dare he enter The Ladies without permission!
It is for Laydees only, after all...
OH ANA he wouldn't would he?
,
Always seems such an upright sort of chap to me , BUT of course he does frequent GRabbits, and to be frank on the QT you understand, poor dear Mr N was a bit shocked at the going on"s there .
I bet he was, what with all that thingy steaming and what-have-you! 
(Mind you, I don't think there was that much in the honesty box - it didn't weigh much. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it had been wafted under one of the loos by a puff of wind...)
Well, that's two good reasons not to go in that loo!
How do you know that, Nonu??? 
Have found the empty Honesty Box hidden in the Laydees toilet, behind the wellyboot machine. From what I remember, there was hundreds, if not thousands of pounds in it when I left on Saturday night Laydees, I fear we may have a light-fingered person in our midst
Nah Bo, It'll be Pete.
He's always been light fingered and if he's not ticklin' some old trout, he's a dab hand at emptying the Honesty Box (or as he calls it 'my savings account') with a bit of bent wire!
You mark my words! [nudge] [nudge]
why is Pete using the Laydees toilets - though it explains why the seat's always up
Ah well, at least it'll keep him off the streets for a couple of nights...
Yeah, he's gone down to Grabbits with papaoscar to get his thingy steamed or something, ....... I think
You could try draining the 'empties', merlot!
If I do that I might have more than a missing fillling.
IBS springs to mind
I have it on good authority that there was a misprint on Grabbits beer advertisement and they haven't got Sheepshaggers and Leg Overs but do have a few cheap haggis left over from their January Sale. Sorry to disappoint you papaoscar
