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 have been teaching year two today and in some ways you sound just like them! Do not be nasty to each other girls! Friends now? Good - so pour me a large brandy (and no nuts!)

Chewbacca Sat 17-Mar-18 00:13:13

Mary is my bestie! That's why we're so nice to each other Jane. If we werent bestie's, we'd be even meaner!

Marydoll Sat 17-Mar-18 07:53:29

Menopaws Sat 17-Mar-18 08:47:24

I'm practising 'She's coming round the mountain when she comes', is that appropriate for karaoke nite? Mary?

Marydoll Sat 17-Mar-18 08:55:29

OOOOHHHH yes. This is going to be such a tasteful evening. grin

lemongrove Sat 17-Mar-18 09:01:24

Jane grin yes, we may sound mean but really we are all heart?
Am now musing on what song to sing on Sunday night, I may change my mind about ‘My old Man’ and do ‘My Way’
Or possibly both.?
A few snow showers here, but nothing much so I should be here for karaoke nite.Dress up girls btw if you’ve got it flaunt it.The boys in blue say they will be round to check us out, Sgt Norty always does a good version of ‘The Laughing Policeman’ and Constable Bashem does a memorable ‘I get knocked down, but I get up again’ oooh, am excited now and looking forward to it.I bought a fab new sparkly dress in Primark which just about covers my credentials.?

Have invited the posh lot from Soops for the karaoke.
Trouble is, they still remember our talent night from a few weeks ago!
I shall be Woman-ing the bar ( and living here) until Sunday night, but everything is all set up now, so just drop in whenever and strut your stuff.

Cherrytree59 Sat 17-Mar-18 22:14:50

Just read about karaoke in Soops
Thought I'd drop in as I could do with a large one!
As its cash only I've raided the penny jars and and found a few
old pound coins down sofa.
I can always sing for my supper
tone deaf
#I will survive....
Stuff struttingsmile

JaneD3 Sun 18-Mar-18 07:05:24

Just drowning our sorrows at home at the state of English rugby. I shall try my rendition of Swing Low ( with the actions) and I’m sure some lads in green, stil p.....d from St Paddy's, will drop in with the Fields of Athenry.
