A saucer of milk for Snuggles, Munchkin.

*scratches the behind the ears* Aren't you a sweet baby?

Could be Snuggles just doesn't like men. I had a cat like that once. Was a regular luv around women but turned into a tiger when a man got close.

No, wait. That wasn't a cat. That was my cousin Rose. Never mind.

Oh well, I suppose it will have to be Snuggles, then. The does look happy with you, Hypatia. You have a real knack with her.

I'll have a too, please, Munchkin. Zantic.

There we go,curtains repaired,they almost look as good as new again.Snuggles,look what I've made for you....A collar with your name on it.Anyone else like one ? I'll have vodka with freshly squeezed orange juice please !Cheers Munchkin

Why would I want a collar with "Snuggles" written on it?

Maybe you'd get lucky, Kes.

Pinky wants freshly squeezed orange juice!

I've brought my own oranges though Lil,all I need is a few squeezes and hey presto,freshly squeezed orange juice on tap...

*waits for Munch's reaction*

How do you squeeze them? Do you remove the peel first? What about the pips? This venture of yours seems to have a lot of problems, Pinky.

There's already a bottle of orange-something behind the bar. Here it is!

*Picks up dusty bottle and blows the grime away, then wipes the label before reading it.*

"Chamberlain's Orange Squash. Ingredients: Sugar 70%, Corn Syrup 25%, Glucose, Dextrose, Carmine Red colouring, E110, E102, E150, comminuted orange pulp leftovers 0.002%". Just put a dash of that in a glass, top up with water, and there you are!

If you want them freshly squeezed I can do that. I still have the old rugby sock for straining the peel and pulp out after I hit it with the knobkerrie.

Goodness me, Pinky, you've gone very pale. Sit down, and don't think about the fresh OJ recipe ... and for goodness sake, don't ever ask how Munchers prepares a Pimms.

A PIMMS ! I'll have a strong brandy and like it thankyou !

And like it you shall.

Without a doubt Munchkin !

I had a lovely drink over the weekend... campari with sparkling wine, garnished with olives. Mmmmmmmmm! Lovely! You wouldn't have the makings of a pitcher of those back there, would you Munchkin?

Goodness, didn't know any one still drank Campari, sounds just the thing Munch would have a dusty bottle of.

*Calls across the bar to Munchkin*

No - the other red bottle - that one's for the drains.

*Pulls a out of her . Picks fluff and a hair of two off the frosting and gives it to Kes.*

Many happy returns of the day, Kes.

Ooooh! Happy Birthday, Kes

*rummages in her clutch bag and produces an old lippy*

Dayglo lilac, should suit you, Kes.
