Think perhaps we might need to have a rota system - all willing volunteers put their name on the list on the bar please.

After all Boris as hostess has to have assistance in the running of such an upmarket bar full of such high class clientele.

Careful BusyBee, we're starting to sound less like a bar now!!!

Seriously Boris, we can't let you get overworked though ... how about you sit down, put your feet up and we'll bring you a nice long drink?

Ok i'm ready

:laugh:

Can I apply for the vacant space at the end of the bar? I fancy myself as a 'Norm' type character whom everyone greets with bonhomie as I waddle into the place on a nightly basis.

In this case of course it would be 'ROB!'

Instead of a trusty sidekick called Cliff, I suspect it might have to be some other drunken dim-witted inveterate.

Any volunteers?

Can I be employed too?
I can only work after 5 and at weekends but I will work hard

Well I'll definitely be there tonight with a glass of champagne raising a toast to Concorde and warming myself up after hours of standing in the cold to see this beautiful plane.

So keep that stool warm for me please ROB

Sorry ROB. I am afraid that that particular space is MINE in between serving the regulars when the bar manager does not turn up which seems to be every day ! She is heading for the 'sack' I am afraid.
You may have the space next to it. Of course everyone can reserve a 'special ' seat at my bar....and yes it is a bar whatever others might be inferring.The 'special' seats can be reserved by buying a season ticket - just like at the football !!! I am always happy to make a ready buck or two:thumbs:

Mrs. O'Leary, you are dressed for the job suggested and may start immediately . Well done that woman.:laugh:

I am ready for a stiff drink myself. Mr. Boris and I bought a sofa to go with the 2 recliner chairs we already had.....nothing is easy. They have not delivered the slightly scuffed one we saw in the showroom as arranged, but a brand new one and it is a different colour. The one we saw was dark navy. The invoice says it is black( that is how dark it looked in the showroom) the one delivered is a brightish French blue. As an 'arty' type person I carry colours well in my head and this is NOT the one I saw even allowing for bad lighting ! I almost GIVE UP !:mad:
Oh well i suppose i could put it in the 'snug' where the chosen few can fight over it !!! LOL:laugh:

Cheers all. Have a good night :spin2:

PS..... I think I fill that bill too ROB :shocked:

Afternoon all - glad my favourite stool was free for my lunchtime drinkie poo.

Back to work today - cold but the sun is shining - why couldnt it have been like this yesterday when me and OH spent two hours plus standing in the rain and cold. Still that hot toddy I had in THE BAR last night did the trick and warmed the cockles of my heart.

See ya all later.

Glad to hear that my 'special' receipt has the desired effect on the 'cockles of your heart' Busy Bee.

Must admit to being a trifle worried about my livlihood though. You were my only customer today and last night they were pretty thin on the ground. perhaps it was my trying to sell 'season tickets ' for the bar stools. But a gilr does have to earn a living somehow.If things don;t look up I will be bankrupt !!!!!:shocked:
perhaps you could tell your friends about my ''hot toddy'. It is very beneficial on a cold night, a real winter warmer !


http://www.confetti.co.uk/email/g/je...er_warmers.gif

I enjoyed that hot toddy so much I'm back again.

But just a suggestion how about introducing a selection of cocktails - can charge the earth you just put in a couple of umbrellas and a bit of fruit, call it something exotic and rake in the cash.

Any suggestions for names how about

Stuff In the Den:love::love:

Like it Busy bee.

And another could be....

Boris's Bevvy !

Tasty or what.

Can I tempt you to a bar meal tonight? I can do you a cut price one. Chef made lots of preparations and no one has been in to eat yet .

OH NO ITS A POLICE RAID!!!! :shocked:

Some anonymous person has reported this bar a a den of drug dealing and gun running.

We are all going to have to be fingerprinted

I only came in for a half of lemonade.

Well I'm back here this morning, and no sign of any disturbances! The coast must be clear.

Hmmm ... think I'll settle down in the corner with my bacon buttie!

Uh oh

look at the notice on the door
Any ideas ?

Think that half of lemonade has gone to your head sticks. You have been 'sticker posting' instead of 'thread posting'. I recognise your style in that poster. !!!!:laugh:

We are not a 'den of iniquity'. We are a reputable company. In fact we do not have a 'den' but a 'snug' !

If anyone else hears 'tittle tattle and rumour' please let me know.Methinks it has been listened to before at another time !!!lol
:laugh:

Well it's a relief to see this place open again :thumbs: though I don't think the word has quite got around yet as its a bit quiet.

I think this is the ideal opportunity for me to offer to buy everyone in here a drink.

Cheap round :thumbs:

I only come in for my coke and pork scratchings, honest guv' :laugh:. Boris, perhaps you should hire a bouncer to keep potential troublemakers out. :xyxwave:

Just bringing all the coffee stuff in.

Had a thought, while in the Borris Bar, we could offer "Irish Coffee" and Coffee liqueurs in the evening :dance:

Yummy mince Pie:hugesmile:
Although I dont like coffee I will still be visting
I might pop on tonight to catch the reactions to Pop Idol

Glad to see we have Pop Idol on in here :thumbs:

What better way to spend a Saturday evening :hugesmile:

Those of us in the 'snug' will not be watching Pop Idol !!!! In fact we are testing the 'Irish coffee' that sticks made us earlier. You should try it LEE. Mind you it is more expensive than that 'round' you bought earlier. Don't think you had to spend more than 50p LOL:laugh:

Someone at a Christmas Farmers market, where I was getting supplies today suggested Rum or Brandy in coffee. Due to metabolic reasons I can not indulge in alcohol :bawling: so anyone willing to be guinie pigs so we can "develop" a new range of coffee liqueurs ?

I was sussing out the competition today at Starbucks (See attached image),where they are doing a coffee and mint, with cream and chocolate topping. So I need to get cracking on that side of things.

If only I had thought to pick up some Christmas pudding coffee :blush:

Well I did buy myself a drink and it certainly cost a lot more than 50p lol, and I'll join you for an Irish Coffee shortly when the final contestant has sung, see you shortly. :thumbs:

Just seen your last post Sticks - I LOVE Brandy in coffee so I will definintely offer to test-taste one of these for you :thumbs: I may have to taste a few before I can give you a definitive opinion though :laugh:

I'm a real Dry Martini woman myself.

Could you get me a nice one or three Boris please?

I've had a hard week and what could be nicer to relax with at the end of your bar on a Saturday night

I'll line them up for you old friend.....

How many olives do you like?

3 a piece I'll be bound !

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

oh I love olives, tell me Boris do you have olives on the bar and little tapas and nibbles. I love all those tempting little fattening things. Mind you I went right off salted peanuts after someone told me that guys in bars go to the loo, never wash their hands and then grab a handful of peanuts, yuk, how disgusting is that?

Olives

yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk

I think you get the idea lol

We do LEE...thank you !!!

Now about the nibbles on the bar.
In my other life I am used to checking the hands of 'small' boys . I can tell at 10 paces if soap has been used.Therefore I can ussure you that chef ALWAYS washes his hands in a very thorough manner. he prepares all the little goodoes for us and has such a delightful way if presenting then all. Do you like his latest???
I really think that banana and anchovies on toast is a rare treat !

Brandy in coffee - one of my favs too

as for nibbles, well can I request cheese straws and walnuts??????? (not together, just a co-incidence)

Bit of a mess in here after all those nibbles last night.

Hope Busy Bee comes in soon with her mop and bucket to clean up !!!!:laugh:


http://www.masterplumbers.com/plumbv...mop_bucket.gif

One larger please :spin2:
I have finished cleaning the loo's :bawling: actually maybe a brandy would be better after cleaning the loo's :laugh:

Sorry to have been a bit derelict in my duties Boris. Glad to hear chef has been able to cope without my kind assistance.

Been a bit poorly - touch of this fluey bug thats going around, but feeling a bit more like my stripey self today. :bawling::bawling:

And dont you worrry about Sticks and his licence. I spoke to the clerk to the licences only the other day and he told me how impressed he was with this new high class drinking establishment. Said the Manageress was a bit of a tyrant but has a heart of gold and as for the customers - they couldnt be beaten. It is one of the most well run places he has come across. Always changing its menu and offering just what customers want.

Could we have Tia Maria in our coffees as well pretty please.:hugesmile:

Busy bee, for helping out Mrs. O'Leary with the cleaning you can have Tia Maria in anything you like....as long as you don't make me have any - I hate it !

About the licnece and the good vibes, thank you for letting us know all about them though I am not sure who the comment abiout 'Tyrant' was aout. Certainly not MOI ! I am a sweet little pussy cat !!!:laugh:


http://www.freehandsource.com/_image...ialiased01.gif

You recognise me of course.... I am the one....well you know !:spin2:

Who wants a game of 'Name that Beer Bottle'?

http://www.chilliman.com/beer_labels_frame.htm

Lightweight that I am only got 2 out of 10.

:hugesmile:

Evening James... Your usual ??

Coming up now .

Cheers !:laugh:

I'm in my usual corner of the bar near the TV, watching the snooker this time.

Come on Matthew Stevens, you can do it. :thumbs:

A pint of Stella please Boris - yes I did say a pint lol, I'm not pretending to be sophisticated tonight :hugesmile:

Well this is just typical - I want to throw a 4,000 posts party and there's no-one here :bawling:

I'm here, though I'm a bit busy for a party, or meant to be... :hugesmile:

well done
