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

Have I missed something? Where has this Big Jim come from? As he is only 5" 2" why is Big in his title??

Initiation!? <hotfoots it out the door>

<taking my drink with me obviously>

About them raisins....... Gladstone was s--h--itting near that bowl earlier today. Sorry, I forgot to wash it out. You didn'the offer any to Lara did you? Never mind if you did. We can tell her they're chocolate raisins, she'll never know.

Sorry, it was me that soaked my feet in the ice bucket ( Did you find a bunion plaster...seems to be missing.)blush

How did you know about the parachute silk for my knicks POGS ( Chewy swore it would be a secret!) The parachute was huge and made at least five pairs of drawers.Am not fat, just big boned.grin

The furry pair are a bit itchy, but do look great, nothing like real fur is there?
Marydoll only has faux, so am one up on her.

I think that Galahad should be banned from the bar area, he is a health risk ( slightly less than the peanuts though.)

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 22:42:30

In that case I will pay my dies tomorrow. ]grin]

As for Big Jim he may he only be 5' 2" tall but he has size 13 feet and a big nose!

Marydoll Tue 01-Aug-17 22:42:32

Chewy is trying to be clever by alluding to a former paramour of mine. I am still receiving counselling for that traumatic period in my life.sad
It didn't help that I am 6 ft tall in my wellies( another storywink) and he was even smaller than 5 ft 2.

Chewbacca Tue 01-Aug-17 22:43:03

As he is only 5'2", why is big in his title?

Best not to ask Menopaws. But Marydoll's been smiling all week.

Menopaws Tue 01-Aug-17 22:44:45

My thoughts exactly

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 22:47:04

roses

I like an 'owner upper' . smile.

Verruca issue solved then, just bunions.

Sorry for thinking it was you Big Jim.

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 22:48:53

Chewy / Menpaws.

Size 13 feet and a big nose.

Menopaws Tue 01-Aug-17 22:49:48

He can't hear you , he is being smothered by a six foot woman wearing wellies

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 22:51:12

Marydoll

Are you saying you had a bit of a fling with 'Two Loos Le Trec'?

Menopaws Tue 01-Aug-17 22:51:17

I don't know what's in tonight's cocktail of the week but this thread is moving faster than Marydoll after a sailor!

Marydoll Tue 01-Aug-17 22:51:31

????????
If only you knew the truth!

Chewbacca Tue 01-Aug-17 22:51:32

roses, Will you stop washing your feet in the ice bucket? We had some very important guests in at lunchtime today and they ordered a bottle of champagne. What kind of impression do you think it creates when they pull the bottle out of the ice and it's got your bunion plaster stuck to it? This is a top class hostelry you know!

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 22:51:54

Blimey 'having' a fling, present tense.

Chewbacca Tue 01-Aug-17 22:53:26

Marydoll's had more flings than a Scotsman's kilt.

Marydoll Tue 01-Aug-17 22:54:07

Chewy, should I own up about "BIG Jim?

Menopaws Tue 01-Aug-17 22:54:33

Moët & Bunion?

Chewbacca Tue 01-Aug-17 22:58:13

I think it would be for the best Marydoll . Confession can be good for the soul and even better for retelling as gossip the next day. You can tell me. I won't tell a soul.

POGS Tue 01-Aug-17 23:04:39

Moët & Bunion? grin

Menopaws Wed 02-Aug-17 21:54:32

Come on Chewy, I've got the jar of pickled onions(with chilli) all ready on the bar if you have got your good teeth in, Marydoll you can join in if you're not feeling too 'wishy washy' of course

Chewbacca Wed 02-Aug-17 21:58:20

Oh I'd love to help out Menopaws , really I would, but I've been to the dentist today and he specifically said "don't eat any picked onions, especially with chilli, for at least 10 years". What can I do? Can't go against medical advice, can I? and the thought of chilli in anything makes me retch smile

Chewbacca Wed 02-Aug-17 21:59:26

Marydoll will do it though. She got a taste for hot stuff when she was hanging around with Big Jim.
