You're snowed in in Ambridge/Emmerdale/C oronation Street. Where are you, who are you with and who has packed the food hamper? ❄️?

I am up Schitts Creek eating pancakes at Twyla's getting fashion tips from David and his mother. Hilarious!

Definitely Death in Paradise, in spite of the body count! The police would be good company in Catherine's bar and perhaps Darlene would be good enough to provide a hamper!

Cheers GillT57 it would make a nice change from the hotpot in the Rovers. I promise to be on my best behaviour propped up on a high bar stool chatting to Michelle and Robert. I could even help out in the kitchen now that Zeedan has left . Poor Robert must be run off his feet.

I don't watch soaps, but if Danny Dyer is still in the pub in eastenders, I wouldn't mind a lock in with him. wink

Emmerdale tonight - the only place in the whole country without a single flake of snow.

I don't know any of these places, but I think I fancy Ambridge with a hamper full of organic locally produced goodies plus someone to cook them, a roaring log fire and the bar within easy reach.

Or Sainte-Marie ...

I wouldnt be in any of those places. Yuk. I would be in blackwall with the lads and lasses of blue watch. Londons burning. Drama channel.

Perhaps we could coerce him into buying us a bevy or two at the Wolly, Sodapop,& tell him the error of his ways in wearing that thing?

I’m in Death in Paradise, sat at the bar with the lady who runs it.

sodapop Thu 01-Mar-18 16:45:42

Emmerdale for me, in the Woolpack with a Marlon special meal and Joe Tate's sidekick Graham to look after me.
I would do the same to Rodney Bridgeit

GillT57 Thu 01-Mar-18 16:43:22

That's true gillybob everything is to hand, Roy's Rolls, Dev's, chippy ( of unknown ownership) and if you behave yourself I am happy to stand you dinner in the Bistro one evening. Also, should we over indulge or take a tumble on the cobbles, we can walk straight into the medical centre and be seen same day, not in a fortnight

I think I might be in the Rovers on Coronation street. I don't do posh so would be quite happy with a bed upstairs I would happily share with Peter Barlow too if needs be . I would have a hotpot and a bottle of red and just join in the gossip. Everything would be in easy reach including a Medical centre just over the road, kebab shop on the corner plus Dev's corner shop if we needed supplies.

As for the hamper it will 'appen be tripe an' drippin' butties! Yum!

kittylester Thu 01-Mar-18 13:59:16

I wouldn't be in any of those places but I would be happy keeping warm with kush wherever he happened to be.

Bridgeit Thu 01-Mar-18 13:54:56

I will be joining you in the Woolpack Emmerdale , but not with Amos. I will be there to tighten that leather medallion thingy Rodney wears around his neck !

Greyduster Thu 01-Mar-18 13:45:11

Well I will be in Emmerdale of yore, propping up the bar in a Woolpack presided over by Amos Brierley and Mr Wilkes! Annie Sugden will 'appen struggle down from the farm through eight foot drifts in her pinny and headscarf with newspapers wrapped round her feet, saying "Nay, it's nobbut a bit o' a sprinklin' lad. I've 'ad t'deckchair out this mornin'. I'll have a pint of port and lemon when yer ready Amos an' be quick about it. I've fifteen hundred cows ter milk before tea!"

GillT57 Thu 01-Mar-18 13:30:58

Grey Gables I think, with the option of a room if we get snowed in. Don't fancy staying upstairs at The Rovers, would probably have to share a bathroom, and don't fancy hearing Peter Barlow's smoker's cough in the morning. Don't like hotpot either. Do you think Toyah makes a vegan hotpot?

merlotgran Thu 01-Mar-18 13:14:55

I think I'll steer clear of Grey Gables because being snowed in with Ian wittering on about having a 'bebbeeee' would drive me out into the snow like Captain Oates.

Wayne's making me a very nice GF ploughmans so I'm happy to stay in The Bull propping up the bar with Jazzer.

KatyK Thu 01-Mar-18 13:10:53

Well I've never watched Emmerdale or listened to The Archers so I'd better be in The Rovers. Roy could provide the hamper and I could have a large glass of Pinot from behind the bar. I've actually been behind that bar!

Dontaskme Thu 01-Mar-18 13:04:33

I'm in the Woolpack with Eric who I feel sorry for, although no idea why. The Hamper is from Davids store, the only village shop in the world to have printed hessian bags, I'm sure. I'm sitting in front of the blazing fire and have a large glass of prosecco. I've taken off my boots and am warming my feet and no-one cares! Wouldn't eat in the pub as Marlons skills worry me and they all seem to hold plates of food while carrying on full conversations over them, yukk.

chelseababy Thu 01-Mar-18 12:47:39

I'm at Grey Gables with Lillian propping up the bar. Ian has provided the hamper (though think we might just carry our G&T through to the restaurant)
