ATTENTION TWF
A new guest wandered into the bar a few days ago and is still waiting for a drink

Sorry I wasn't angry or anything just airing my opinions, no big deal. I discovered I can login from somewhere besides my home computer so I guess I won't be out of touch until Sunday. So back to the tootsie pops, I'll take a shot of Jagermeister and a cherry pop, Please bartender!!!

Hey TVF,
Who...what...hey?
Were you referring to 'bent'???
Sorry, I was reverting to usual British bar tradition where a punter has to actually wave cash money in the air before being asked their choice of tipple
*ahem* ... bent would you like a drink?
*double ahem* ...would anyone care for a drink?

As I'm feeling particularly generous and I'm (virtually) absolutely loaded with (virtual) cash, then I've decided that it's my round. I'll have a pint of Carling Premier. Everyone else?

I think I'll join you in having a premier, seeing as you're being so generous. And because they've just removed it from my local in favour of becks, the bar stewards (no offence meant to a fine and noble profession, I just don't like obvious swearing). I didn't order a drink before because I was too busy soaking up the ambience, so the lack of service wasn't a problem. Thanks for the concern though.
Does the bar need to feel secure?
bent Posted Nov 25, 1999
Always takes so long to settle, doesn't it. I reckon it's time that Carling got faster bubbles. And Guinness too. Is there any real reason that having to wait 119.5 seconds should be considered a good thing? And does anyone feel pedantic enough to time the barman?

Sorry TWF, I was talking about Gildor, who is located in a new forum in the bar......

A pub ...! I knew there'd be one around here somewhere. I'm doing research into the effects of alcohol, I need to know (before Wednesday afternoon) how long 4 drinks last as a guard against nerves, also how long six drinks last as a guard against nerves. I'm doing a presentation on Wednesday afternoon (a couple of hours after the pub) - Irving sent me over here to find out.
These two doubles are purely for research purposes, you understand ... cheers!

Imbibing a lot of alcohol is a great guard against nerves. It's also a great way to forget all sorts of things - like what it was you were supposed to be nervous about in the first place, where you live, who is your 'life partner' etc.
You've seen the old guys shuffling around city centres with bottles of cheap booze in one hand shouting obscenities at passers-by?
Well I've never seen one looking nervous

Hi Flowerpot! Welcome to Frink's Drinks
Seems to me if you could figure out a way to make the presentation while unconscious, you wouldn't have to worry about nerves at all. I'm sure The Wisest Fool can help you reach unconsciousness right quick..........

If not a good quick tap to the head by our bouncer, myself, might help. But only if ordered to by TWF or TVF.
Hmmm
Bluebottle Posted Dec 9, 1999
Business looks slow here, guys? What's wrong, competition from the Forum & Firkin?
Hmmm
The Wisest Fool Posted Dec 9, 1999
Probably. After the news I got today (i.e. my weekend cancelled) I need a bloody pint, no matter where it comes from /
Hmmm

In the interests of quicker loading may I suggest we build a new bar next door?
Hmmm
The Ghost Of TV's Frink Posted Jan 19, 2000
Neither bar has much in the way of customers, drinks, or service at the moment. Speaking of which, TWF seems to have disappeared hisself
At any rate, I'll be over in the Karaoke Korner, singing a new tune in a new forum:
