* sips a coffee *

Uh-oh, paulh has been out in the cold so long he is becoming delirious

* puts up some fairy lights *

*puts delicious sandwiches and on the window sill to lure paulh back into the bar*

cheers very much.

Oh no, where did paulh go?

I'm afraid he may be caught by an orcinus orca if he gets too close to the water

Should we form a search party?

I never left the Lighthouse Bar, at least not physically. My mind does wander, though. Thanks for the sandwiches. I especially liked the lobster salad and avocado ones.

* warms herself by the fire and sips a hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows - oh and of course brandy *

hot with brandy for me also, please - hold the marshmallows

It's a good thing I have a secret wormhole between my private quarters and here so I can get here without changing out of my robe and slippers and sit by the fire in good company
