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!

Greenish (spag)

Spelling and grammar 😉

Limer · 12/12/2019 21:16

Red, white or rose Epic? I'm on the red, which I now think is a mistake, because it'll probably give me the hangover from hell tomorrow. I think I'll have a glass of pop next, then switch to white wine for the next bottle Wine

I'm soooooooo worried. Genuinely there are so many variables, every time I start to hope Boris will win, I then out-think myself and convince myself it'll be Jeremy & Nicola in a marriage of convenience Confused

Cheers Songs and hello Bear

Have we decided which channel to watch the results on?

Am watching Now That's What I Call Christmas!

🎵 🎶

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 21:17

I'll be watching BBC for exit poll

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 21:18

I love John Curtice 😍

yolofish · 12/12/2019 21:18

Whatever the result, or the non-result in the case of a hung parlt, I just wish that everyone would be kinder to each other. I have no idea how these divisions can be healed and tbh I'm not sure they can if we veer one way or the other. But Merry Christmas to one and all and I'll have a large red Wine to follow the 97 I've had already and will continue to neck before the exit polls.

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 21:19

@DustyDiamond. You can’t! You’ll lose Whamaggedon!

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom · 12/12/2019 21:19

Wow '' songs'' really!!

That's amazing!!

We have German blood in our family too but my dm was a war baby!
UK gf was ambulance driver near the front.

On the other side, dare not ask.... HmmBlushSmile

Bearbehind · 12/12/2019 21:19

I’m touched by all the welcome back messages - thank you

Proof you do actually miss a headache when it’s gone! 😂😂😂😂

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 21:20

@yolofish. You know I would never normally question anyone’s wine intake but 97 seems a bit....expensive.

You’ll end up like Bernard Black eating the coaster and saying “it’s some sort of delicious biscuit”.

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom · 12/12/2019 21:21

I've had two red, and now on white... I have some fizz but dare not even sniff it.

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 21:21

Oh here it is

yolofish · 12/12/2019 21:23

autumn 97 was a damn fine vintage I'll have you know!!

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 21:23

“I'll be watching BBC for exit poll”

I’m on sky, but they are wheeling out bercow, so considering the switch to aunt beeb. 😬

SingingLily · 12/12/2019 21:23

What Channel are you all tuning into to watch the results come in?

I was going to watch Sky, Thistimetomorrow, but they've got €$¥#%€$ Bercow as a pundit.

I've had more than my fill of that jumped-up pompous democracy-denying little turd in the last three years and cannot bear to see his smug little face or hear his odious little voice again. So it will have to be the BBC.

At least they've got John Curtice.

Anyone remember that jaw-dropping moment when he conjured up his prediction for the 2017 snap election? "It'll be a hung parliament", he said, just after the dot of 10pm when the polling stations were still locking up.

I'll be hiding behind the sofa for that moment this time. 🗳🛋😧😱

My prediction, by the way, is still a working majority of 47 for the Conservatives, therefore 368 seats, I know it's ambitious but🤞🍀

By the way, did I mention that I'm not too keen on Bercow???

Limer · 12/12/2019 21:23

Lovely and heartwarming story songs Smile

BBC for me.

Cheers yolo I'm necking Wine by the gallon at the moment. Either to dull the pain or heighten the delight. Not sure which yet Confused

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 21:24

“Proof you do actually miss a headache when it’s gone! 😂😂😂😂”

We love you bear! 🙌😍🍷😂

Twattage13 · 12/12/2019 21:25

Fuck it I've just managed to spill 2/3rds of a bottle of beer all over the carpet...I am pleased to see people are not going to be antagonistic this evening. I'm feeling a little less snoozy now.

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 21:25

Amen Yolo! Cheers 🥂 😍😘

Bearbehind · 12/12/2019 21:28

I think I’m going to watch the exit polls then get some sleep and then watch it in the early hours

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 21:29

Whatever the result, or the non-result in the case of a hung parlt, I just wish that everyone would be kinder to each other.

🕊 🍷 Yolo

AutumnRose1 · 12/12/2019 21:30

I don’t know which to watch

But I think Huw Edwards is cute.

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 21:31

Proof you do actually miss a headache when it’s gone!

😂😂😂

You're part of the furniture 🐻😍

Wynona · 12/12/2019 21:31

Whatever the result, I hope we can all still be friends. It is going to take some healing.
