Come on, you lot, are you all still comatose after reaching 1,000 posts last night?

That bar won't re-stock itself you know, and I'm too busy buffing my nails...wink

Marydoll says she's going to train them for the Argy Bargy Bar Flea Circus lemon. We're looking to recruit a Circus Master. Interested in applying?

Poor Jasper, we must get him deflead pdq, before we are all a mass of biting black dots.
I will go out first thing in the morning for something, as long as I am recompensed from petty cash.
Think I will sit here at the back of the bar, well away from him, and sup my Guinness.

Chewbacca Tue 10-Oct-17 21:50:24

I think it's those thigh high red leather lace up boots she's wearing that stop the little blighters from getting through. Don't know how she walks in them! 5" heels! No wonder she's having to lie down on Julian!

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 21:41:24

Well........, Anya seems to be immune to the bites. grin

Chewbacca Tue 10-Oct-17 20:54:31

grin we could become famous! The first bar in the world to have its very own flea circus! That should bring in the punters! Who's going to train them?

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 20:43:21

Now you come to mention it.....

Chewbacca Tue 10-Oct-17 20:13:08

Eurgh! You can be so revolting sometimes! I thought this place was going up market now that we've had a makeover? How is it going to look when the punters stand scratching themselves at the bar and go home with flea bites? The only way those fleas are staying is if they can do tricks which that dratted dog doesn't seem to be able to do

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 20:03:11

PS. Don't worry about Anya getting bitten. She is so pickled they won't feel the bites.

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 19:57:08

That's only Fabio and his friends. Fabio is my pet flea and I thought it would be nice to introduce him to you all.grin
Is something wrong? confused

Chewbacca Tue 10-Oct-17 19:50:39

What are those little jumpy things all over the mutt and Anya? Why does the mutt keep scratching? Why does Anya look like she has a black blanket of living things moving over her legs? That dog has got FLEAS!

GET IT OUT!

lemongrove Tue 10-Oct-17 17:17:14

Ah, will you look at them there, all cute and asleep together, how very sweet.Jason and Anya snoring in unison.
Did somebody give the dog the last of the old sherry by any chance?
Well, was going to ask Anya a few things, but will have to leave it an hour or two now ( and then throw a bucket of cold water over her.)????

Anya Tue 10-Oct-17 17:07:43

ZZZZZZZZZ

Anya Tue 10-Oct-17 16:56:07

Thish rug shnores ?

Chewbacca Tue 10-Oct-17 16:45:04

Just staggered in from a hard day at the typewriter face and in need of a lovely long glass of Cool Swan. Well..... where is it?
that dog hasn't moved a muscle since last night. Is it dead?

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 16:27:29

STOP! That's Georgio, the new guard dog. OH dear, too late.......shock

Anya Tue 10-Oct-17 16:16:53

Jusht need a lie down on thish nice shoft furry warm rug.

Anya Tue 10-Oct-17 16:14:22

Hic! Yeah, itsh absholootlee deelischus ?

Marydoll Tue 10-Oct-17 15:49:25

Welcome JaneD3
Well ladies I have a surprise for you. I wasn't going to let on, but after the sherry debacle, I thought I should make amends.
I have a bottle of Cool Swan Irish liqueur and as we have some new members, I thought I would break it open to welcome them . It is to Bailey's, what champagne is to wine. Absolutely delicious.
However, you will have to move fast, as the level in the bottle seems to be dropping. I can't think what is causing it.wink

JaneD3 Tue 10-Oct-17 11:37:24

A Baileys latte is always very acceptable for breakfast!

lemongrove Tue 10-Oct-17 08:39:01

Good morning, good morning good morning! ?
Never fear Menopaws we have another barrel of cooking sherry in the cellar, and I will go and get a pint of it right now, unless you would prefer Baileys? ?It does have coffee in it after all, so more of a morning drink.

Menopaws Tue 10-Oct-17 08:35:34

I was sulking cos that was my sherry you promised me, I want a pint of baileys instead please

Marydoll Mon 09-Oct-17 23:11:37

That would be INcredibly kind of you, Lemongrove. Don't know where Meno is and Chewy is legless. Come to think of it, BIG Jim is also missing.? moon

lemongrove Mon 09-Oct-17 23:06:49

Shall I lock up tonight?moon

Marydoll Mon 09-Oct-17 23:03:43

Oops! I accidently mistook the sherry for soya sauce.? We had a very boozy stir fry for dinner and now Chewy has gone AWOL. I have no idea where or with whom she is.?

lemongrove Mon 09-Oct-17 21:05:08

Yes, let’s save the best stuff for Tom.?
We need to get on his good side.

I don’t think that Jason understands his role here, he has just allowed in a pair of disreputable types, and is wagging his tail as they feed him pork scratchings.Bad dog.?
Oh, it’s Ana and Jane , so sorry! Didn’t recognise you,
Are those outfits from a circus?
