*opens up new month, clean pub and fresh stock*

We're a little late, but better than never...!

*Pours an and downs it test the stock - it is good so he pours another*

All the girls still in their withdrawing room?

*Grabs the remote and turns on the TV, watching reruns of motorcycle grands prix from last year...*

*inside the Ladies*

Come on mari-rae, tell all!

Hmmmm! Haven't been here for ages. How is everyone? I really must get into here more often again for the good and company.

... pours(paws) 'dude an & hands(paws) it to him ... welcome back ... have we met?

... continues scratching at 'ladies' door to let them know we've moved on & let me in ... while stopping & scratching sand out of ears ...

still sandy

*Opens the door to the Ladies so Shirps can get in...* http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/F52920?thread=620655&post=6836428#p6836428

*Spies Sultandude sitting there large as life!*

Hello, you! We thought you were lost over Boxing Day. Glad that you are all right. Have an , then have another

Grabs his , "No, I was in Africa, and it didn't affect the Eastern Seaboard where I live, I'm pleased to say. I read that it actually wobbled the earth on it's axis which is a sobering thought. Cheers to all!"

*calls out over her shoulder as she enters the Ladies....*

Welcome back Dude, good to see you back.

Good grief, we can't have sobering thoughts here, by law of Pan!

Sober? Who are you calling sober?

Welcome back SD!

*Presses a well practiced furtive finger to WR's TV remote and turns the motorcycle racing volume down*

*changes the channel so now they can watch what is going on in the ladies*

Linus sweetie! Is that your that WR is drinking?

*Having caused a distraction, returns the TV channel to motorcycle racing and knowing how men will give up on changing channels if the remote fails to work, removes its batteries*

*Finds second small TV set behind the bar. Plugs it in directly to the feed from the Ladies so that they can watch either or both as the whim takes them and don't have to change channels at all*

Women say men can't multi-task...we're sitting here watching TV, drinking and talking sh*t !

New month ... clean glasses.

Sorry I'm a bit late!

you'll just have to drink faster so you catch up Kes

Nice work WR

... door to Ladies surrepticiously opens ... 's head peers round ... sees blackened face & standing up hair ... sniggers: hehe ... door closes again with a loud BANG! Raucous laughter heard from the Ladies

*Peeks around the door and wonders how long it will take the chaps to notice they are staring at a soot-blackened screen*

Multi-tasking! Tsk! Yeah right!

Kes! What nice clean glasses you have and they look as though they're new too! You simply must give me the name of your optician.

April? Is it April?

Sultandude. Nice to see you again.

indeed. cheers sultan

S.DUDE! So glad you stopped in! I take it, you got my threat?
Er, invitation? Shirps, meet Sultandude. ...*looks around...can't count the number of friends here ...too drunk...*

I'm backlogless and confuse-aled.Why are there two threads and which is the proper CP thread? What happened to March? And did anyone see the March Hare? Cuz if you see the March Hare on the last day of March then it's six more weeks of hard boilded eggs!

I'll be back later! There's a terrible storm about to smack me right in the open windows! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~wouldn't want me ta' melt, would ya'? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shirps as Shirps:

Hi Pan to have you back again - trust you've survived the storm

March has definitely turned into April

All "ladies" are meeting in the Ladies ... - girls talk - we have a good supply of in there ... just lacking your presence
