What do you think, great place or what?

lemongrove Wed 16-May-18 21:41:36

Meno I can tell you are three sheets to the wind already,
How many have you had? I saw you pop up from the cellar.

Menopaws Wed 16-May-18 21:34:52

Is that similar to the policeman with three heads, no arms and one leg? Allo allo allo, you look armless, hop in!

lemongrove Wed 16-May-18 21:22:57

Btw, the Admiral has offered us his ship’s cat ( yes, a real moggy not a whip) to keep down the squirrels/rats/ ferrets which run amok in the cellar.It’s got a missing ear and no tail and is called Sweetums.
Whaddya think, shall we borrow it?

lemongrove Wed 16-May-18 21:19:35

Where’s Mary and Chewy lately?
They were looking a bit ropey when I last saw them, poor old dears.
Pleased to tell you the bar has been restocked and we have had a delivery of steak pies/ haggis/ black pudding for barsnacks.Charge customers £2 each and they are not, repeat not, for non paying customers ( you know who you are.)?

It's alright doodle this lot can't hear very well and if you give me thumbs up I will cough loudly!

Doodle Wed 16-May-18 20:25:48

meno!!!!????. Just as well you got the izal stock in.
Sorry about the noise blush

Menopaws Wed 16-May-18 19:53:27

Damn you're good, just don't tell the others

lemongrove Wed 16-May-18 09:06:17

Ooooooh!I love secret ingredients! Not ex-lax by any chance?

Menopaws Wed 16-May-18 08:24:37

You haven't tried this batch yet, it has a secret ingredient so beware,!!

lemongrove Tue 15-May-18 21:43:53

No thanks Meno I went last week.?

Menopaws Tue 15-May-18 21:18:58

Well done ladies, I've remembered to restock the izal bog paper this time so good to go, if you get my drift

Doodle Tue 15-May-18 21:17:30

Sorry lemon. Didn't see you there. It's a bit dark in the cellar. Cheers not saying bottoms up, haven't forgotten what happened last time I said that. I still haven't recovered ??

Doodle Tue 15-May-18 21:14:39

I'm on my way meno. Quick twirl to get into my Wonderwoman outfit and I will be with you. Oops, got it on back to front no one will notice pint of poteeen please meno and keep them coming ??and I'll have 3 packets of pork scratchings too. Funny flavour, taste a bit like squirrel droppings....oh well not to worry, it will soak up the poteen anyway.?????

lemongrove Tue 15-May-18 21:13:51

Had a medical check up the other day, the doctor asked me how many drinks I had in a typical week.Three or four I said, ‘ tell me you mean glasses and not bottles’ he said,
blush I had to say ‘neither, I meant crates’. grin

Just off to the cellar to deal with all that fermenting poteen,
Anyone else coming? Bring your own pint glass ?

Menopaws Tue 15-May-18 21:07:22

My latest batch of poteen is getting affected by the sunny weather and it's beginning to ferment, now we all know how that affected Marydoll last time so if you don't want a repeat of that incident, I suggest you get down here and drink it quick.

Menopaws Sun 13-May-18 08:24:11

I thought our 'special' brownies went down rather well last time, maybe give a few out first then people will buy anything, we could clear the backlog of pork scratching s for a start, if the squirrel has left any in the cellar

JaneD3 Sun 13-May-18 07:20:55

Chewy I will be down later to spring you but it will mean using the rent money again. How on earth will we raise that by the end of the month? Ask Soop and the Kitcheners for a party? They may bring food we could sell? -unlike ours-

Chewbacca Sun 13-May-18 00:33:09

Could someone pay my £600 bail to get me out of the nick? Got into a spot of bother again. I'd offer to "work it off", but it was doing that that got me in here in the first place blush

lemongrove Sat 12-May-18 21:00:07

Oops!
I went to Berlin for a naughty mini break with the Captain,
I should have checked who was in the cellar first though.
Right, let’s get these drunks onto bar stools and I will ring the brewery and order more of everything.
Don’t worry about them Doodle they’ll sober up by Sunday morning.

Doodle Sat 12-May-18 20:39:49

Ok. So where have you all been since Wednesday? Don't tell me, I know. lemongrove locked you all in the cellar and then went off somewhere leaving you all to drink the place dry. Really lemon you should have checked before you locked up.? Firstly, what are we going to serve in the bar now the cellar has been depleted and secondly what are we going to do about all those drunken layabouts customers in the cellar?

lemongrove Wed 09-May-18 23:42:29

Shall I lock up tonight? ?

lemongrove Wed 09-May-18 23:01:35

grin A great film Mary..... a classic.

Marydoll Wed 09-May-18 22:48:42

Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me!?

lemongrove Wed 09-May-18 22:44:47

Since Mary never pays her own bar bills, you are being optimistic Meno that she’ll pay yours! grin
Still, drinks on the house if you manage to get up that mountain.Can we have our ferret back?

JaneD3 Wed 09-May-18 16:42:49

Marydollcan you afford Meno’s drinks for a whole year! That would take a mortgage grin
