Splendid, Mr P, very nice indeed. It was becoming rather crowded in there.

*Raggles in, arms full of bottles* Sam, old chum. Brought these burgundys with me from the other room. Thought they might come in handy. *Glances peerily around him* Cor! This is what I'm talking about. This is a party! Where does that music come from? or is it just in my head? Proper amounts of Burgundy does strange things to me. *hic*

Ah, some fine Burgundy to cleanse and revive my palate! Cheers!

The Duke of Dunstable Posted Sep 20, 1999
Drink it down. Plenty more where that came from. I fancy mine with a stain of absint.

Burgundy and meths shandy? Are you trying to stay sober?

Good morning and what a fine September morn it is too. Have been to my office and there is precious little to do there so have returned here!
The Back Parlou
Dr E Vibenstein (You know it is, it really is.) Posted Sep 21, 1999
Ah, Mr P, how we have awaited your return! *raises a goblet of burgundy and meths shandy* Your very good health, sir.

Good Health one and all. Luckily I have brought a wine cooler full of fizzy sherry to share round. Fizzy sherry anyone?
I feel extremely fit and have a sudden desire for oats.

I'll try one of those, if I may, Vestie. I think it could do well with the chicken.
The Back Parlou
Vestboy Posted Sep 21, 1999
Chicken? Mmmm. Interesting. I think a darker meat, perhaps.
Is there a good Chevalier around here?
Begging your pardon M'lady L.

I should lay off the fizzy sherry... but I don't like to look a gift horse in the mouth.

The Duke of Dunstable Posted Sep 21, 1999
I was thinking maybe that dark gravy with the chicken. Is that soygravy?

|could really get my laughing tackle round a roast potato - whatever that is.

Dr E Vibenstein (You know it is, it really is.) Posted Sep 21, 1999
A roast potato? How does that work?
The Back Parlou
Vestboy Posted Sep 21, 1999
Work - you mean you can get them to carry out labour as well?
That Raleigh was more on the ball than I ever gave him credit for!
We could do away swith slavery at a stroke!
Who'd buy a human when we could grow your own workforce?
The Back Parlou
Dr E Vibenstein (You know it is, it really is.) Posted Sep 21, 1999
They won't be able to do much after you roast them. *waves hand dismissively* Do away with slavery indeed! What kind of talk is that?
