Mo's BBBBAAARRRR is open!

[MaureenMLove]

Evening. It's been too long. Get in here, chew the cud, talk crap, sound off or just sit in the corner and rock. It's your bar, your rules!

I need to stay awake until 1am. DD and the boyf are flying home from New York and I'm a bit of a geek with aeroplanes. I need to see on Flightradar that they've taken off. She's just arrived at the airport and she's shitting it, because she's a crap flyer and it's foggy. I'm getting a running commentary. I've told her to check in and go and go to the bar!

Hmm.. I haven't had a real life drink at all, have I? 😬

Well it's a very long time since I've seen this bar open!

Is your bar open, or is your bra open? I just need to clarify.

Well I never, BIWI, how the devil are you?

It's definitely my BAR, not my bra! 😂.

I'm good! And you? Where have you been?!

All we need now is SallyStrawberry in her cupboard under the stairs, asking us what we're having for dinner and normality and general talking shit will be back!😂

I've always been here, never been away. But to be honest, the place ain't what it used to be.

No it used to be loads of factories, now it's just green fields.

Hello. I am on the rum and Fanta Twist because DS2 drank all the Coke.

Those flight trackers are the worst. I watched DS1 all the way from Berlin once.

It's a nightmare! I even go as far to make sure the flight she's getting on has landed from the previous journey to pick her up!

She's a terrible traveller, but she loves her overseas holidays, so get used to it babe! When she told me there would be turbulence going up, I did t have the heart to tell her it's been rubbish in London for 2 days and landing at Heathrow wasn't gonna be pretty either!.

i saw this thread and really want to shout...GET OUT OF MY PUB....
sorry
as you were....

Someone on here once said they were watching the flight tracker and the plane completely disappeared from the screen for a while.

Hang on! Rum and Fanta Twist? What even is that?

Dd did make me laugh. We're at least a dozen exchanges on text and she suddenly says, ' 'hang on! Why are you still up?' Cheeky cow, it was only 10pm. The fact that I'd just mopped the kitchen floor doesn't come in to it, but whatever. Then she says, 'are you going out then?' Seriously? At 10pm? Am I 18 all of a sudden? No mate, I'm not going out, I'm in my pjs, like I have been since about 5pm!

Well hello me old muckers.

Tea and toast in my corner, I'll hide it from BIWI .

I'm awake because I had a Nanna Nap this afternoon, what a doughnut! I'm all discombobulated and not-tired.

Oh stop it with your flight tracker ishoos! That's my little girl (of 23) coming home to mummy! 

i remember sallystrawberry back in my 2 shoes days. wonder what happened to her.

I put my dressing gown on at about 5pm. Been out all day, so that's what you do surely?

I think it's called Fanta Fruit Twist, a luminous fruity pop that appeared in the fridge. We have some Cherry coke but I read the label and someone has added 'fiery chilli' to it.

Oh, tea and toast sounds really good right now. And nana naps are the best!

Sallystrawberry still on my FB I think - no idea if she's still on MN

No idea what this is about but I've just had a great toastie.

That's all.

.

I would love a cheese toastie but I can't because I will be up at 3am with raging heartburn.

Oh I love that Fanta!

It was a chicken, pepper and red onion toastie with grated Edam on top

Sneaky will you not be needing the industrial strength Gaviscon? Onion?
