Well, the sale went through and we now own this new bar,
Isn’t it wonderful?
So clean and shiny ( that won’t last!)
Come on in, have a drink and tell the tale of what you have been up to.
All the old staff are here, in the cellar checking the stock, but will be up here shortly to take your orders.???

I’ll do a turn behind the bar. What are your orders?

lemongrove Sun 08-Apr-18 20:35:30

Just let the hairs grow Charley and then plait them, very fetching with bows on.

lemongrove Sun 08-Apr-18 20:34:27

Charley...that will teach you to drink all our poteen!
I don’t think you paid for your drinks either hmm
Has Marydoll recovered yet? the loos need a good scrub out, and it’s her turn.
Who’s on the bar? is the coffee machine working? Did Soop make us a cake? So many questions, so little time.

No I have not and even going to the Veet factory did not help. They were more concerned with their profits because I would need so much to remove these awful hairs. Each is like wire and growing daily. I do not know what I will do at the airport- it will be very embarrassing especially as I have loads of metal work in my joints already.

Charleygirl I seem to remember that you were happy enough to drink several glasses of our welcome drink last time you were here! Have you got rid of the hairs on your chest yet?

Charleygirl Sat 07-Apr-18 18:23:52

soop you deserve a drink after what you have done today and if you open the bottle and pour the wine at least you will know that it is not a mixture of bleach and creosote which you are more likely to get at the cafe as your welcome drink. I doubt if they have the same taste there for fine wines as we do in the kitchen.

I also will have a glass or three of fine red when I have my meal.

Marydoll All's well...I'm here, alas without Big Jim. He's otherwise engaged. On my way to the caff, I stumbled across a rather pleasant perky Scotsman. He comes with all the trimmings. I checked. He was looking for a decent place to tune his pipes. He's partial to a haggis butty and a tankard of malt whisky and has a good eye for bonnie lasses. So...in the absence of anything better, I'm dropping him off outside your door. I told him to knock three times and ask for wotsername. In the meantime, I need to strip out of my home decorating clobber and prepare myself for a evening beside the log fire together with MacSporran and a bottle of cheeky red. Slainte!

Marydoll Sat 07-Apr-18 15:39:28

Actually, Big Jim isn't here. He is away to a Brewdog shareholders meeting in Aberdeen.
However, he seems to have been waylaid, as he hasn't arrived yet!
Something to do with trains... or Marydoll.

lemongrove Sat 07-Apr-18 15:12:18

Haha! Shush...Big Jim may hear us! In fact he isn’t quite the same at the moment either, not feeling himself at all I hear.grin
Who’s on the bar today then? Oh, is it me? Sorry to be late ( DGC are frolicking around me as we speak) so let’s just have a quick one for the road.?
Laters, peeps.

Bad ones?

JaneD3 Wed 04-Apr-18 04:58:03

Oh dear she isn’t improving is she? What about a session with Big Jim in the cellar? That might bring back some memories.

Marydoll Tue 03-Apr-18 22:54:01

Who is Mary???? confused. Is she a Newbie???

lemongrove Tue 03-Apr-18 22:44:33

Where did that ginger wig come from?

lemongrove Tue 03-Apr-18 22:43:54

Here Mary recognise these fish net tights and the black whip with the silver handle in the form of a wild haggis?
Sure you do, they are yours !

Menopaws Tue 03-Apr-18 09:34:55

Did she make it? Is she still with us? Bags have her stool at the bar if not.

Menopaws Sat 31-Mar-18 10:30:01

I'll liquidise an anchovy and drop it in, that will do it

Chewbacca Fri 30-Mar-18 23:49:18

No Marydoll, your in your old gin joint, remember? Look in this mirror and you'll recognise yourself and all will be well when you've drunk this gallon of cider and schnapps.

Marydoll Fri 30-Mar-18 23:46:27

Am I Soop????

Marydoll Fri 30-Mar-18 23:45:28

I don't know who I am, but I think I'm in Soops kitchen.grin
Are there any nice cakes? cupcake

Marydoll Fri 30-Mar-18 23:44:17

Who am I? confused

Chewbacca Fri 30-Mar-18 23:38:20

Marydoll? MARYDOLL! MARYDOLL! ARE YOU AWAKE? CAN YOU HEAR US? YOU'VE HAD A LITTLE SLEEP. DO YOU FEEL BETTER NOW? CAN YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU ARE? hmm

Chewbacca Fri 30-Mar-18 23:29:40

We're going to have to get her to regress Jane. This will involve deep psychological treatment - of the electric kind. I'll nip down to the cellar to get that cable extension. You get Marydoll to lie down on the bar and when I come back up; we'll plug her in. A couple of minutes of 1000 volts will have her back to normal MD's normal anyway.

Marydoll Fri 30-Mar-18 23:27:50

Oh, how cruel. ?Is this a hostile takeover? I do remember one thing, I was a founder member of the Argie,...........I think.?

JaneD3 Fri 30-Mar-18 23:22:04

If e get evicted while she is like this she will never find us. Result!

Marydoll Fri 30-Mar-18 23:06:41

I think I could help. Are you worried about one of the Argies?
