What do you think, great place or what?

Marydoll Mon 08-Oct-18 10:40:27

Too late Doodle! grin. You have to be up early to beat me!. I must say, he is a handsome fella. wink.
Those crossed eyes of his are mesmerising and crooked aquiline nose is so ...well words fail me!

Doodle Sun 07-Oct-18 21:30:56

Ooh hello handsome ? must get him quick before *marydoll sets her sights on him how about sitting here in the corner with me yes I know it's dark but she won't see us here how about I get us a couple of poteens to get you legless warm us up and then you can come back to my place for a ..........night cap #innocentface ?

Buffybee Sun 07-Oct-18 21:10:30

My brother, Gormless, has just arrived, he's so good looking, just like Lurch from the Adams Family, and young, free and single if anyone is interested desperate .
This pint of Creme de Menthe is settling my stomach a treat!

lemongrove Sun 07-Oct-18 19:01:35

Oh that’s a ferret alright! We have loads of the little blighters, they run around here free range.

Marydoll Sun 07-Oct-18 18:58:24

So that's what's climbing up the Captain's wooden leg. I wondered what the high pitched scream was! confused

lemongrove Sun 07-Oct-18 17:30:33

I decided to liberate one of the ferrets Meno wink

lemongrove Sun 07-Oct-18 17:29:21

Yes Doodle your pointy hat is in the cellar, been there since last Halloween.The cobwebs look very convincing.

Menopaws Sun 07-Oct-18 17:28:56

All I know is I'm missing a ferret

lemongrove Sun 07-Oct-18 17:28:11

Well, it’s not exactly Roland Rat Buffy ( but you’re close!)
Yes, a Halloween theme could work nicely, Meno already has the warts and a black cat, I am looking very orange( because of a badly timed session at the tanning salon) and you are looking a bit green Buffy .....we are halfway there already.???‍♀️??‍♂️?

Buffybee Fri 05-Oct-18 23:45:52

Pint of Sherry coming up, Lemon!
Speaking of "coming up*, I've had to rush to the outdoor Lav a couple of times tonight!
Must be a touch of Poteen poisoning, don't worry, I've had it before!
could it have been the meat (rat) pie?

Doodle Fri 05-Oct-18 22:11:57

How about getting ready for our Halloween bash lemon.
We've already got the spiders and cobwebs. The ferrets could double as the witches cats ?. I've got a new motor on my broomstick so I'm almost ready. Anyone seen my pointy hat? ???

lemongrove Fri 05-Oct-18 21:43:56

Pour me a pint of sherry please Buffy am feeling classy tonight!
I think the regulars are all out nightclubbing at that new place down the road, Ye Olde Tarting Slap, it’s all done
out in a Tudor decor theme and very popular. We need some new decor here, any ideas?

lemongrove Fri 05-Oct-18 21:39:03

Haha, there seem to be a few GNers on shifts there at the moment.
There’s a shower in the back room ( well, it’s a bucket of cold water on a rope really) but you are welcome to use it, there’s Fairy Liquid for your hair, only the best here y’know.
We always keep spare clothes on hangers in the cellar, just don’t use my lurex catsuit.Or else!

Buffybee Fri 05-Oct-18 21:33:04

Still no-one here!!!!! Thought I'd make the effort! I've sewn up a few holes in my fishnets, sponged down my leopard print frock and found my white stilletos. Quick spray of Lady Gaga eau de toilette and here I am!!!!!
I'll make a few Poteen Cocktails while I'm waiting!
PoMojito, Popina Colada, Pogarita!
This is fun!!!!!!

Buffybee Fri 05-Oct-18 17:38:07

I'll give them a swish around in my pint of beer, that should sort them out.
Do I need to change into something glamorous as it's Friday night, I'm still in my overalls and metal toe-capped boots from my shift at the Sewage Plant.

lemongrove Fri 05-Oct-18 17:21:25

You’re our kind of girl Buffy ( did you not think to take out your teeth for cleaning? Much easier to get the furry bits out. That’s the trouble with ‘beef’ isn’t it???

Buffybee Fri 05-Oct-18 17:10:06

Delicious ? apart from the bits of fur getting stuck in my teeth.
I'll wash it down with another pint of the amber nectar and a splash of poteen.

lemongrove Fri 05-Oct-18 16:53:11

Please do, they are delicious ( and no risk at all) wink

Buffybee Fri 05-Oct-18 16:43:02

Oh dear! I've just handed a bundle of cash over to Menopaws she said it's always kept down her cleavage!
I'm getting quite peckish now after a gallon of beer, I'll try one of the pies?

lemongrove Fri 05-Oct-18 15:09:04

Buffy don’t trust anyone in the bar with your cash!

It’s the Captain, he is hiding out here ( from the wrath of the Admiral.) He may well have crossed eyes after two days on the razzle.

I’m leaving a fresh ( fairly fresh) batch of home made pies in the kitchen, sell them for £2 a go and say that they are ‘beef’
wink

Menopaws Fri 05-Oct-18 14:37:29

Bar tab? Just hand over your cash and I promise you promise you it will end up in the till

Menopaws Fri 05-Oct-18 14:36:06

I thought the old dog Buffy referred to was Marydoll tbh?!

Buffybee Wed 03-Oct-18 19:01:28

I've got a 'bar-tab' going, do I just put the money in the till? I'm owing quite a bit now!
Do you do "contactless"?
I think this Admiral chap has had one or two as well. His eyes are as crossed as a basket of whelks.

lemongrove Wed 03-Oct-18 17:35:09

When our tea towels are in the wash, we sometimes push a ferret into the beer glasses to dry them, just push one in, twist it and hey presto the job is done.

lemongrove Wed 03-Oct-18 17:33:03

Buffy the old dog is the Captain, please refer to him as the old sea dog or he will be unhappy.
He seems to have dried off now after his long sea immersion but his uniform has shrunk horribly, but he is too drunk to notice.
Just dropped in with a juicy bone for Jason, how is everyone, happy? Got a glass in your hand?Good, just don’t forget to pay up, the till is suspiciously empty....has marydoll been in by any chance??
