Nebo, are you quite sure that picture of Pertwee strikes the right tone?
Hmm...the idea was to subliminally suggest to punters that they ask for a large one. But you're right. This is a famously high class hostelry *pulls curtain across drool wall*
Thanks Lach. I'm sure we'll muddle through. Especially with excellent staff such as Hammy and Coal Hill - who can conjugate the cocktails in Latin like a sort of erudite Tom Cruise.
In keeping with the high class tone I always adopt I'm thinking of renaming the Drool Wall the The Pulchritudinous Picture Wall. (the locals will no doubt retain the original as a colloquial).
As indicated by my tasteful Pertwee and felafally balls I'm aiming for a touch of class. I've come to pity poor Outside dashing the short distance from carriage to door, head bowed and cape raised as if to be seen here is below the salt.
Morning its like the end of the world up here. Is it May next week. It's blowing a gale and dark and rainy. Rumpole is hugging the fire to warm is fur. Got to go to Tesco's as well - urgh.
Monring Hammy. It's blowing a gale here (my barstool). Really severe all through the night.
edit: hi Tumpy. snap about the weather. Have you tried supermarket delivery? We find the delivery charge is offset by petrol saving. or free when spending a fortune

Oh I say this all sounds a bit la di dah! You'll be wanting to remove the spittoons and putting carpet on the floors next! :eek::D

I don't blame Rumpole one bit, the furthest I'm hoping to go today is from the sofa to the kitchen and back again
Carpet is pushing it a bit. I'm pretentious, not tasteful. Some pubs round my way have ponced themselves out of all recognition. So I'll try not to make that mistake. But perhaps keep things from sliding to "The Dog and Handgun" levels. What me and my friend call "Didnt you kill my brother?" pubs.

hahahaha, I call pubs like that "The Slaughtered Lamb" which only makes sense if you've seen American Werewolf in London

Ahh I do get delivery except today is what I forgot to order yesterday. Obviously brain malfunctioned Thursday and I forgot my Mum drinks skimmed milk.
Spent 10 mins hoping rain would stop to get out of the car - it didn't.:(

I'll swap it with [URL=" https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-uoh0ijIdI4o/Tkrz_d_ZpEI/AAAAAAAABfE/5AhqLdcI0vg/Jon%2520Pertwee%2520January%25201970.jpg"] this one[/URL] subliminally suggesting that it's a female friendly kind of boozer.
*waits to see how long it takes Lach to post 3000 posts bringing tenure to end*
Well this is the first one:D.
You are the real landlord, yours is the first:). I will be your sidekick, and Hammy is here to serve everyone what they want:D.
You called?
Morning All, hope you're all well on this soggy Sunday

Oh dear, someone should have warned you that sprout curry is not a good idea for supper *passes Nebo a stomach settler*

What will become of the Naughty Step? :eek:
You mean The Rambunctious Remedial Rest?
Forgive me if I do this.....
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
A touch too Hyacinth Bucket m'dear?
Ok. Good old fashioned Drooling and Naughtiness it is then.

:eek: I kill outside
**realises that non-existent profits have gone up by 500%, and that more customers are frequenting the Inn**
:oMaybe for a little while longer:D
I actually forgot about the naughty step:cool:.
Go on then, as its you :cool::D
*strips off and starts dusting*
Perhaps Outside should spend some time on the naughty step
*flicks duster over optics*
I think he should, with his Pimms and his cucumber:D.
Anyway nobody does naked dusting like yourself:cool:.
Maybe we should have a nude day in the Inn. Customers can be provided with a palm leaf if necessary:D.
