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!

So do I. Dammit, who mentioned chips.

Someone say chips!

OYBBK how friendly of you to ask - no it never gets sore, nowadays. But then I have a silver ring in it, fitted by a proper piercer (of Barmouth), and it hasn't budged for 3 years. Previous efforts by myself with random purchases of small silver hoops resulted in many unwarranted openings, much fiddling and soreness.

Moral: get a professional to fit it.

That's a handy hint Klep :)

dd is allergic to a lot of earrings, so I'm always on the look out for ones that won't make her ears sore.

That's mean Mo. I just had to make do with oatcakes. They aren't really doing it.

I can actually smell the vinegar...

I'm going to have one more cup of tea and hope the DD is boarded and not able to use her phone. I'm not sure I can make another hour!

I'm off to sleep. Hope she has a smooth landing Mo. Thanks for the thread!

Let do it again soon!

Stoppering the Grand Marnier for next time. It'll only go all sugary and crusty. Goodnight!

HI all. Will the bar be open again tonight? I have proper Coke now for my Rum.

I'll join you with a Pepsi max tonight after this mornings shocking boot camp post prosecco.

Can I join again later?

I might pop in at the end of the night.

anyone for a nightcap?

Oooh yes. What are we having?

I'm in for a night cap. I've just watched 'Truly, Madly, Deeply' for the first time.

I've got some rosé - it's lovely.

I have just watched Pretty in Pink for the millionth time. She should have gone off with Duckie. Blane is sooo wet.

Soave for me.

Gosh, this brings back memories - the baaaar was where I first got to know MN 12 years ago. Back then it was usually lulumama or lissielou who opened up.

hmmm, I've got some amaretto?
Dh bought it for me , but it's too sweet.

I had chips for dinner tonight

Hey RB :) How are you finding the new Doctor Who series?

I’m only just catching up, as we’ve been in Egypt, but I’m liking it very much, so far - bit of a Classic era vibe to it.

I like it a lot too :) I wasn't expecting to, but I am.

How was Egypt?
