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!

Blyth Valley has gone blue 😮

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 23:33

Is that your sofa or a leg?!

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:33

Don't know where that random photo came from 😱

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 23:33

My leg's not that wide!!!

It's a cat bed.

Limer · 12/12/2019 23:34

BLYTH VALLEY!!!!!!!

Songsofexperience · 12/12/2019 23:34

You are not ben elton either 😉

Lol

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom · 12/12/2019 23:35

Oh what's the cryptic photo of.....

Rug and sofa?

spadeo · 12/12/2019 23:37

Blythe Valley - Labour since 1950's 😳
Wow!!!!

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:38

😂🤣😂🤣

We're not exactly technophiles in this house. Mr Lily has only ever sent me one text. He meant to type hello but, you know, fat finger.

The text I got said "hell".

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom · 12/12/2019 23:41

😂 I thought it was symbolic of something....

Perhaps the clarity of labour's campaign...

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 23:43

Bloody Nige. We could have swept sunderland! 🙄

MrsSnippyPants · 12/12/2019 23:44

I heard a rumour of brandy at midnight Singing
Am I in the right place?

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:45

That's true, Epic.

Breaking news - police have removed several ballot boxes in Paisley.

Suspicion of personation.

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:46

Welcome, MrsSnippyPants!

Yes but no need to wait till midnight. A large brandy for you. It's all looking good, isn't it?

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 23:46

What's personation?

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 23:47

Off to google...

RufusthebewiIderedreindeer · 12/12/2019 23:47

Fraud dusty

Pretending to be someone you are not

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:48

No need, Dusty,

Same as impersonation.

Pretending to be another person in order to vote.

Same as "personation of a police officer".

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 23:49

Thank Rufus! (And hi btw 👋)

I just wiki'd it

How would they know/prove it?!

(Am learning all sorts of election based stuff this time round 😂)

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 23:52

Dusty, ahem, that's why you were challenged earlier at the polling station. You looked like someone else.

It's a simple matter to see if the someone else had apparently voted and then ask them formally if they really had voted. Or the fraudster might have used the vote of someone recently deceased. That's even more clearcut.

RufusthebewiIderedreindeer · 12/12/2019 23:53

Hey dusty

I just read on another thread that its actually quite difficult to prove....its more evidence that something is ‘odd’

Anyhoo, hope you all have a good evening

Im off to bed Grin

Night

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 23:54

I’m like this 💃💃💃💃💃

Hopefully not prematurely.
