Brexit Arms: Election Night Lock-In

Welcome to the Brexit Arms - it's going to be a stormy old night! We're about to be buffeted from right to left and back again with no real idea what the landscape will finally look like in the morning. All are welcome to weather the storm in the warmth and safety of the Arms - but please remember this a hospitable establishment so let's try and keep it that way.

We're kicking off the evening with our Back to the 70's theme night while we wait for the big main event to unfold. The juke box is loaded with all your 70's favourites. Feel free to dance round your handbags but please, no dancing on the tables…. this could be seen as having too much fun.

As always, we've got a nice big pot of PG Tips on the brew and Camp coffee by the mugfuls in addition to our usual alcoholic beverages.

On a serious note, we know that tonight's events are going to cause some upsets. With this in mind, the mint imperial bowls on the bar have been filled with Diocalms and we urge all our customers to make use of these. There should be enough to go round as long as nobody starts trying to stockpile. We simply cannot risk the need for plumbers to unblock our loos on Friday morning, as they could have been called out on strike by then.

Landladies on duty tonight will be:

20:00-22:00 Greenish (with Babychams, Cherry B's and vol au vents)
2200-midnight Twattage (with Classic Dmitris and cheeseboard)
Midnight-0200 Singing (with stiff brandies to calm the nerves, plus a selection of fresh nuts)
0200-0400 Hate (possibly with Albanian delicacies and a hangover cure)

We'd like to get the glitter ball turning with this absolute classic:

….fingers crossed similar scenes will abound in the Arms by the end of tonight. Enjoy!

P.s. When ordering drinks between 8pm and 10pm please supply your own drinks emojis. Thankyou!

Marking my place by my head popping round the door. Cup of tea at this stage. Wine later.

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 13:55

I can’t concentrate on my work

I also seem to be having an existential crisis. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE.

Hollycatberry · 12/12/2019 13:59

Thanks for setting up the bar greenish!

BooFuckingHoo2 · 12/12/2019 14:02

Is this thread open to all or is it for those of a particular political persuasion?

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 14:06

A SPECIAL pic for new thread!!

With all the usual suspects
....and a 👻 of the past 😱😍

Open to all Boo 🍷

(Only rule is don’t be a twat)

I’ll not post again on this one til it all kicks off at 10 (or the other thread fills up)

Laters taters!! ✊🥀🙏🕯

cheesewitheverything · 12/12/2019 14:15

Great start, op! I'm just popping in to say hi, and I'll be along later for a gin. Need to pace myself though as I want to stay awake. Sounds as if it will be a great night!

Twattage13 · 12/12/2019 14:25

Registering interest...I feel my 10pm thread is going to be a bit of a letdown opening post wise! I've never started a thread on MN and I can't do memes...I'll just have to distract everyone with a large round of super strong ClassicDimitris and a cheeseboard with 13 types of cheese...

XingMing · 12/12/2019 15:21

Popping in to bag a seat at the bar, but not a drop shall pass my lips yet.

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 15:22

Don’t sweat it twattage! It’ll probs move dead fast anyway!

Hats off Landlady,

That meme is a corker, and may I suggest, “it’s only just begun” by the carpenters, for the juke box please!

10 babychams and a cointreau for me please. 😉

time4chocolate · 12/12/2019 15:30

Thanks Greenish

Count me in for a sesh - still in the office at the moment so just popping in for a quick OJ but planning on making up for it later on along with you lovely punters.

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 15:37

Just popping my head in, Greenish, to say great new thread! Will go back to the old thread until the witching hour...

Saucery · 12/12/2019 15:56

Just putting my loudhailer on this barstool. Wasn’t allowed to take it into the polling station earlier #affrontomycivilliberties

You don't necessarily have to start a new thread Twattage - just wow us with an EPIC takeover post 🤩

I'm a nervous wreck now... 😩

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 17:06

Ugh, with you Dusty, shit’s about to get real.

😱😱😱😱😱

InfiniteSheldon · 12/12/2019 17:12

Feeling quite sick but hoping it'll settle after a few Tia Marias am feeling distinctly disenfranchised but did vote. Tomorrow will be interesting.

Twattage13 · 12/12/2019 17:17

Oh god I'm feeling the pressure now! I'm out for dinner this evening so I'll be back but may be tipsy. I will do my best...please don't get cross if it's shit (I am after all a newbie)!

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 17:23

I for one will be FUCKING RAGING if you fuck this up Twattage...

(No pressure... 😉😂)

Twattage13 · 12/12/2019 17:26

Well Dusty if we're heading for a hung parliament at 10pm then I think people will be more concerned with other things that the quality of my posting! So now I'm hoping for a hung parliament (not)...

Feeling extremely sick and anxious and I'm out for a slap up dinner tonight so just going to have to try to park it for 3 hours...

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 17:28

I'm putting up the 🎄 to try & distract myself Twattage 😩

(I was just messing with you btw - there's no pressure!)

Enjoy your dinner 😍🍷

ajandjjmum · 12/12/2019 17:29

We're off out for a curry - not looking forward to it much, but I suppose it'll pass a couple of hours. After starting on the brandy first thing (thank you Landlady), I'd rather get a nap and set my alarm for 10 pm.

Please God.
